your letters are getting better, very nice work.
Vlad's arm should have been extended though, as though in the middle of a punch.

[img_inline caption="Coming up, Nova Prospekt. I enjoy the concept of which this comic is a silly photo to end the coast with.
Truth be told, it was X434343 that made the posing which to be perfectly frank, was not up to my incredulous standard, but neither of us had time to do another, so I just called it a silly photo, like when people permissibly do rabbit-ears or stick-out their tongues.

The Antlion Guard was surprisingly difficult to bring into focus." width="700"]http://img122.imageshack.us/img122/7259/30fp2.png[/img_inline]
Here's [http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/6360/d2coast110006jx2.jpg] a comic panel that didn't pass for the previous edition, but was cool enough to still get a public viewing. Also, concept art [http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/5558/boxmanaz3.png] of the things to come.​

I turn away from the camera in silly photos (and seriouse ones, there's about 3 group photos, with me facing away in the yearbook).

Ohh, nice concept art. It kinda gives away the ending though, maybe you should put a spoiler alert next to it.

Gosh darnit, I can't read what the Medic and Vlad are writing. It's partly the font, but also the symbols behind the letters sometimes overlap what their saying.

still awesome though, keep up the good work!

It's extremely thin with alot of blank spaces where parts of the letter are supposed to be. For me anyway, it might just be that it's slightly pixilated for me.

[img_inline caption="We had lots of fun with this one, but it was a bit difficult to get the right props for the medics feet. Thank you animation styles of Chuck Jones for inspiring Grigoris gait. If you insist on an explanation in the font change, I added a slight shadow, and can be explained canonically so by saying the Medic presses the keys harder." width="700"]http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/1011/31zm2.png[/img_inline]
Also accompanying this comic is our first official TF2 Spray [http://e.imagehost.org/download/0273/flying_medic], based on the last comic. No we do not do requests for sprays.​

[img_inline caption="This went through several iterations, all with the same camera angle. It would've had a big ! overtop the cast, but I thought it too meta. Theres some links to these versions below, as well as a mess of manhacks x434343 made.
The large light-flare conveniently covers up Half-Life 2s ability to not produce good dynamic-shadow lighting, or source lens flares." width="700"]http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/993/32nb2.png[/img_inline]

Hehe. I loved making the Manhack Machine. hehehehehehehe...

-Imagines a giant Manhack Machine...-

Suprisingly, it lagged on my nVidia 9600 GT graphics card once it got around iteration 2.

[img_inline caption= Making a webcomic is like riding a bike. width="750"]http://img136.imageshack.us/img136/1804/slackerzguestcopyez9.jpg[/img_inline]

It was a hyperbole in entirety. You guys aren't harsh critics at all, and it's a lot harder to make a comic than to ride a bike.
And a lot of fun to make.
Regular comics are on schedule.

[img_inline caption="Sorry for the tardiness.
Yup, now they're going into Nova Prospekt and definitely will or will not have a plot twist." width="700"]http://img368.imageshack.us/img368/4303/33copyda3.jpg[/img_inline]
Alternative version [http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/2806/d2coast120018bt0.jpg] that wasn't used because I thought the exposure on just that circle easily explained a light source and therefore was too meta.​

[img_inline caption="So begins my favorite chapter in Half Life 2. Admittedly so far in making the Nova Prospekt pictures, its a bit difficult as there are no for real and true ideallic areas to take pictures of. Theres always blood and decaying corpses and rusting metal... Might make a good TF2 map if adapted properly." width="700"]http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/7215/85652370js5.png[/img_inline]

It will be pretty sweet if they battle the mother, let alone meet her.
No, wait, wait, wait! Have the mothercrab fight the antlion guard! It will be like Godzilla!

Nova Prospekt is my least favourite chapter.

And is the dead headcrab intentional?
