No... That can't be right... I'm well aware of the difference between complimentary and complementary.
Here, looked 'complimentary' up in a dictionary:
adjective
1.
of the nature of, conveying, or expressing a compliment, often onethat is politely flattering
2.
given free as a gift or courtesy
I wasn't wrong after all! Yeah!
Hmm...that makes them even more confusing since there is some overlap in meaning.
The word you're looking for is complementary, which is pronounced the same as complimentary.
A lot of native speakers make that same mistake, to the point that I just assumed it was a typo/autocorrect thing in your post.
Edit: Always double-check if there are more pages in a thread before responding, folks. Sorry. :\
And I blame the tiny little page buttons that I constantly overlook. I'm still used to the big buttons on HBS's site. >_>
Sorry, I was just making a pun. Didn't actually think you were a non native speaker - you posts have better English than some of us who speak it as their first and only language.

Got brain storm today as I was driving around...
Dug through my archives and scanned in an issue of 'The Nam' from '87 (Michael Golden is still the man!)

And then redid page 1...
Might have to tighten the halftone up.

Alright...I think I'm on to something? I decided to change my process as I decided this is going to be just as much of an art piece as it was an illustration piece. Panel 5 clinched the deal when I got that neat line variation and the flats I dropped in were perfect. It gave me the exact look I wanted , so that 5th panel was the keystone to the entire piece.
Thoughts?

Well, my first thought is that now I have Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger stuck in my head.
Phew, that was a close call. But I think Hatchy needs a vacation, so she can relax and do something for her tan.
If Hatchy is anything like me, the moment the sun thinks of coming out it's on with the SPF1,000,000 and then still running the risk of shriveling up to a crispPhew, that was a close call. But I think Hatchy needs a vacation, so she can relax and do something for her tan.
