P3-4: you are here
P5-6: [link]

I am working on this from my mother's computer at my parent's house. My grandfather passed away this morning after a difficult couple of days, and i'm staying with my family until after the funeral - which, at this stage, will be just before or just after the colosseum deadline (extended). I'm sorry about the poor quality, as i no longer have access to either a full copy of Photoshop or a pen tablet (and indeed, am on a shared computer) but i shall endeavour to do this justice.

Poor Backstage Manager Ash. XD I love her face! Especially when you contrast it with Cyril's eternal deadpan-pokerface. Ahahahaa.

And that panel where the boys are diving away from the fireball is lovely beyond compare - not only is that a hell of a fire effect, but they both look so scraggly and flollopy and utterly perfect for that scene there.

I repeat that this UTTERLY AWESOME stuff somehow makes my sloppy-assed scripting sort of look like it knows what it's doing.

WITCHCRAFT, I SAY.

I thought Mages cast Silence, not Shaman... I know this for a fact since I play a Shaman

But, hehe, ignore my WoW-freak nitpickiness. This entry is great! You certainly did it justice

Still Puzzling over a good opening match for Kit. Could see a Rivalry or a competitive friendship here.
How does a Thieving contest sound. *Discuss in notes*

Yep, that's what I've been having to do.. I suppose a tablet just makes things quicker, since I can't see a difference in quality between your mouse-colored and stylus-colored pages. (meant to be a compliment!)

GAY GAY GAY GAY GAY. (I will never stop this, you realize.)

Seriously, though, this page looks really great, especially since you don't have any of the resources you're used to right now. Also, Hunter's expression in the last panel absolutely slays me.
