Well let's change narrator for a while, to see if we can listen to something about the other side of the story. I have a scanner now, so hopefully quality will improve a bit. I had a lot of trouble with this page because essentially I kept writing a whole novel in it. It contained way too much text, but there were so many things I wanted to write about and that seemed completely necessary for the story... anyway, I'll scatter them through a few more pages. Now that I think about it, maybe that's where the whole concept of having pages originated. Amazing.
Technically: same old, same old. Some of the shading was done using the 'splotchy' pen in the calligraphy tool, which kind of mixes better with the rough ink. By the way, the ink looks rough because the paper I use is probably not the best for ink, I can see it spread through the pores in the paper when I draw. Of course, I'm too cheap to get another sketch book.
Update: fixed typo to appease the masses.
