Description In which the Narrator makes his first appearance (and it's hate at first sight with GLaDOS) Stanley reveals he is an anxious employee, and Chell decides that the floating embodiment of Snide British Voice is disturbing.

*Coughs*

HOLY COOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW. I FINISHED THE 5TH PAGE? ME, OF ALL PEOPLE, FINISHED THE SKETCHING, CLEANING-UP-OF, COLORING AND SHADING OF A COMIC PAGE ALL IN ONE DAY? AFTER AVOIDING IT FOR WEEKS? IMPOSSIBLE!

Yet, possible. I have been working on this page since 8:30-ish this morning. I did take a break at teatime to visit my friend, since I won't be seeing her for a month (what with the whole 'I'm traveling across the country again' thing), and then had to do the usual evening stuff (washing dishes, etc) which was probably healthy for me. Other than that... I spent over six hours on this, without breaking (I even drew while I ate, cuz I'm just that hardcore) and FINALLY finished it at 10:00 PM. But knowing me, I'll probably come back to tweak it fifty more times.

Explanations out of the way, I'd just like to say... This is genuinely my favorite comic page out of every comic page I've ever drawn, absolutely ever. I snickered non-stop while working on the second panel (and still am), and--in general--am actually rather proud of it. I used FireAlpaca for everything other than Stanley and Chell's coloring/shading--which was done in Photoshop, so that the shading style of the old pages isn't completely lost. You may have noticed that this page is... Well... Infinitely better than the last ones. x'D I've been practicing since the last one, heh~

Look at those hands. Such beautiful hands. Hands I took real time to draw. Wow. What hands. Such beauty. It's as if I took photos of my own hands or something, and now have several awkward photos of myself posing with my hands on my phone.

Oh wait. I did do that.

Next: I dunno, you'll have to ask . Technically we're supposed to update on Sundays, but a certain one of us *Coughs*ME*coughs* has thrown that schedule out of whack

Please stop face-bapping the Stanley with the microphones--it disturbs them.

Edit (4/42016): Made the Narrator's text a bit darker!

My friend and I haven't talked about it in a long time, but we've never officially ended it, so we'll see what happens!

AND SO THE NARRATOR APPEARS. i'm still laughing extremely hard at that second panel

Stanley, hold my microphone

Also lemme be the first to say that I love the narrator, he is mine, and no one can stop me. *runs off with the Narrator* 

but in all seriousness I can't wait to start on the next page, which I might actually get done on time cause of spring break :'D

I am too. x'D And what makes it even funnier, is the fact that we have so many more scenes like this to draw. 8)

Stanley: *raises timid finger as he gets face-bapped*

Probably should have made that little bubble next to the microphone larger, because it actually does say 'Face Bap'.

*Coughs coughs--COUGHS* EXCUUUSE YOU, PRINCESS. I believe the deal was that we SHARE the Narrator?

Oo, nice! Well, it looks like these pages will start coming in at decent times now, since... Well... Let's be honest. When we first started this comic, I had no idea HOW to draw comics--especially panels. Now that I know a ton more about FireAlpaca, things are a lot more speedy~ I can make proper panels and speech bubbles and everything. :') And halfway know what I'm doing now.

Also, what did you think of the combining your room with my room in the comic page?

WHAT DEAL? THERE WAS NO DEAL. I've no idea what you're talking about...

And yeah, I feel like as these pages go on, they start to get progressively better. You can see a huge difference even from the first pages. I was kinda thinking of maybe getting fire alpaca to see how their lay out for comic panels look.

It looks great!! And definitely makes more sense of my mistake in the last page xD

Oh, yeah! FireAlpaca is really great. I've been using it for almost everything, actually... I really didn't expect to migrate from Photoshop so fast. Although in truth, Photoshop still has waaaaay more brushes and tools and stuff.

Just compare the human anatomy from the first page, to the fifth one. x'D Oh, and the atrocious paneling.

Ooooh, thanks!!
