Chapter 5 Page 3

Sorry about the wait for that one (not that anyone probably noticed =P). I've been struggling to keep up with the comic since I got to uni and so missing an update was kinda inevitable. 5 months and 53 pages in for the first late page isn't really bad going though, I don't think. ^_^
I'll keep this update schedule this chapter just to see if I can, but I think after this one I'll try something new. I need to slow down or I'll burn myself out before the end of the first story arc. V_V
I do think the extra time on this page was worth it. It's pretty crucial for establishing the relationship between Martin and Callum. The specifics won't be brought up for a while yet, but the atmosphere between them is… Strained, to say the least. Read anything you like into this page. I won't mind in the slightest. ^_^
And for once, the half-assed backgrounds were almost intentional. The guys and their conversation are the focus of this page. Busy backgrounds would just be a distraction. I love justified laziness. =P
Hopefully the next page should be up on time. If it isn't you have permission to kick me hard.

That's exactly what I was going for. Glad to know it worked. ^_^

Clever work with the panels. Really inventive use of 'moment-to-moment' panel transitions to give a choppy cinematic feel to the conversation.
