This is really well done for the composition and technique of the inks but I think it's a bit too busy for black and white. Specifically the two men passengers on the back and right, at first it looked like the far right man had an extra long leg but because you tried too hard on to treat the pen like apencil it's hard to tell the difference in value.
Also the right back wheel is a bit off on the angle of the front, where the wheel slopes down to the viewers perspective.

However the things I do like about this drawing is that gorgeous horse, and how with only a few lines and block shading you've created a beautiful rendition of a draft horse. It really is breathtaking. I also like how you drew the viewers eye to the man with the coat on, and how the darkest value was saved for him. Over all a 8.5 out of 10. And a big hug for effort Congrats for finishing such a time consuming piece.

Such is the difficulty of posting pen & ink drawings online. Much of the detail is lost. This is a photograph of the actual drawing. The actual drawing is much crisper than this is, and the detail and shading is brought out a lot more. I understand and see what you say here, and if the original looked exactly like this does, I would agree.

I appreciate the feedback, though. It gives food for thought for future pieces. Thanks!
