Chapter 3 Page 30 INKS

I'm a tad late with this; was debating if I should be uploading these since Atari is most likely gonna give me the final pages any day now, but I figured "what the hell."

I really wanna make a game someday; too bad I don't know math (or at least, the kind necessary to program). ^^;

Chapter 3 Page 31 Sketch

Slide, slide, slippity-slide... 

Don't worry Gene, at least you weren't having to top out the Burj Khalifa; you'd have a whole minute or so to think about your life before you went splat, should you have fell off of that. ;I

Chapter 3 Page 30 sketch

Not gonna lie, I'll admit that I don't really know much about how much the Space Needle is like a lightning rod IRL, but regardless, I imagine this being pretty damn dangerous if someone tried doing this during a storm. 8I

Chapter 3 Page 29 Final

That would've been sweet to have wi-fi back in 1999. Probably would've been slow AF back then, methinks (I'm not sure broadband internet was even widespread back in the day, either).

Regardless, I really did do research to see if this scene was even plausible, and it actually is! The headtrip was that Wireless Andrew was around as far back as 1993.

MB Banner/Ad Thingy (Opaque Text)

Here's the banner I'm using for Facebook, here on Patreon, and on the website itself!

Expect to see a variation of this on DeviantArt's AdCast and FurAffinity sometime in the future as well!

MB Ad/Banner Thingy (Clear text)

This one looks pretty cool, though it's a bit hard to see, admittedly, so I might not use this in the long run. ^^;

MB Banner/Ad Thingy (No Text!)

As promised, here is the banner that's all looks and no words,  just for all y'all.

The other 2 versions (with a couple different variations of the MB logo) will be uploaded to the public, but I mainly wanted to show off how cool this is before we tinker with it some more and make an ad version!

Once again, thanks to everyone for their support!

MB Banner/Ad-Thing Inks

We're getting there. : P

Also, tomorrow is Atari's birthday, so wish him a happy birthday over on his DA if you can! 

MB Banner/Ad-thing sketch!

So, I'm currently in the process of making ads for the comic and putting it up on Facebook and FA (I'm not sure I can advertise on DA unless I'm a company, though, which I'm clearly not. ^^;), but  I think this looks pretty cool so far!

Hope you guys will love the final version when that comes out, and I'm gonna upload a version with and without the text for you guys when it's ready! :)

Chapter 3 Page 29 Near-Final

Unlike the last few pages that had some hiccups that needed attention, there's only some problems with the first two panels: I'm not a fan of the photocopied-looking Space Needle on the first panel, and it isn't showing something really important for later in the scene, and there's a white void on the 2nd panel. Hopefully, these two problems will be fixed in a jiffy, since the rest of the page doesn't need any further touchups! :)

Chapter 3 Page 28 Final

Sorry for the delay here; there was a bit of a hiccup with Atari using the old version of the script, but I got that taken care of, so we should be golden! And also, page 29 will be up around Tuesday; that got delayed a bit because... let's just say where the flashback takes place on that page is pretty important, and how it will unfold wouldn't work if it were in a different kind of building. ;I

But yeah, $1.1 million would be pretty handy right about now. Or anytime. 8I

Tweaking some stuff before anything gets put up soon.

Not sure if I mentioned it, but Atari has been busy with working on a political campaign with his father, but he's expected to be finished in May.

That being said, I noticed some things were a bit off right when I was going to upload page 27 to the public: he was using an older version of the script!

The page itself is fine, but he was using some dialogue that I had since rewritten to clarify stuff, and I sent him a revised script not long ago. This shouldn't affect pages 28 and ...

Chapter 3 Page 27 Final

I wrote some important stuff on the last page's description, so you should probably read that first; gonna be going to bed as soon as I get this uploaded. :P

Anyway, I feel like we're gonna get some flashbacks here any second now; Sam should probably find a the closest chair... though preferably not his uncle's. :I 

Chapter 3 Page 26 Final

Sorry for a lack of update for the past few days; my artist was busy with stuff, and that's obviously not under my control. ^^;

Anyway, to make up for the delay, he also has drawn page 27 as well, and I'm planning on starting a buffer, so the public won't get page 27 until the next Friday (not the coming one). ;) 

But yeah, I can't imagine fridge-computer combos lasting more than a week considering it would probably overheat so fast. XP

Chapter 3 Page 26 WIP

You know, we have full-size fridges with touch screens on them, but what about for the PC enthusiast who doesn't want to get up and go to the kitchen for just a snack?

Uncle Gene has you covered- oh wait, nevermind, it's gone up in flames... literally.

I actually slept more than 3 hours for the first time in over 2 weeks, so now I can make witty comments again. :D 

Chapter 3 Page 25 Final

Now we're getting somewhere. :P I still think it needs some refinements, but I can worry about that later.

But yeah, at least it got finished just in time.  

Chapter 3 Page 25 Not-Final

As you can see, there are some really bad technical stuff going on in the last panel; and as I've said time and time again, I can not afford to settle with it.

I'm committed to giving you peeps what you donated your hard-earned money for, so, If anyone else sees someone weird stuff in the page/other errors, please be honest and let me know, so I can tell my artist what to fix, and have every page be the best they can be! 

Chapter 3 Page 25 sketch

I thought I uploaded this when I got the Uncle Gene sketches up. Guess I didn't. ^^;

But yeah, we get to see even more of Sam's awesome house, and see what his uncle looks like. Sweetness. 

Uncle Gene concept sketches

I figured I would show you fine people some designs for Sam's uncle before I upload the sketch of page 25! I'm leaning towards design C, but a bit younger than that; he's supposed to be in his mid-late 40's. 

Chapter 3 Page 24 FINAL

UPDATE: Fixed the missing light that was to the left of the door. :P

Now we're talkin!

Also, What the eff is the forth wall? 8I

Chapter 3 Page 24 Not-Really-Final

As you can guess, I am not happy with how this page turned out; the first panel looks absolutely horrible. Color blotches/missing color in a bunch of places, hastily-placed pre-drawn trees,  and the houses themselves look like they are from a 3D program or something. X_X

2nd panel is much better, but I really wish that the area to the left was not a wall of red...

Lastly, the bottom-right panel needs to have something more than just solid-orange past the door.

I re...

Chapter 3 Page 23 FINAL

I wonder who this Uncle Gene feller is? Maybe he's gonna throw Sam a surprise party? Probably not, but  I'm sure he'll do something just as neat. Maybe. 8I

Chapter 3 Page 22 Final

Since it took a good while to upload a new page for here on Patreon, I decided to give you guys the page the moment I received it from my artist rather than Monday! :D

Wander Over Yonder helped perk me up a bit, so I'm feeling better than last week; thanks for everyone for their support! :D

Anyway, this building seems to have a bad streak, though it seems to be a given considering a business called BellyLint.com opened (I hope someone gets the reference that it's supposed to repr...

Chapter 3 Page 21 FINAL

Well, Atari was able to get the page finished, but with that being said, I want to keep my promise to you peeps and give you a week worth of exclusivity.

Who knows? Maybe I can convince him to work on Page 22 real soon and maybe give the comic a tiny bit of a buffer going on.

Be glad you're not seeing what the basement looks like. :U

No Page this week. X_X

I won't take another moment of your time, but the gist is that there are two reasons why there are no pages this week (and why there hasn't been a final version of page 21):

1. The file Atari was working on got corrupted, so he's having to make it all over again from scratch.

2. My sister had a miscarriage back on Monday, so the mood for everyone as of late hasn't been upbeat.

I hope you understand, and I'm sorry for the inconvenience. :/

Chapter 3 Page 21 WIP

Now who said this comic wouldn't have it's fair share of dark moments? 8I

Even a cheery thing like Undertale can take a darker turn if you want it to be.

I promise this isn't gonna be a gory comic, but just wanted to give you a heads up. :P

Chapter 3 Page 20 FINAL

Finally, the building is what it's supposed to look like! I'm sure most of you will get why it's so important later on. ;)

Anyway, this gives me a Sandlot vibe starting with this page. Let's just hope Sam isn't gonna end it with "FOR-EV-ER! FOR-EV-ER! FOR-EV-ER!" 

Chapter 3 Page 20 Near-Final

I say "near-final" because there's gonna be some changes I want to make before I upload this to the public on Friday. 

Also, the building itself was supposed to have an entirely different structure, but I wasn't able to see that was going to fit in with the others in the sketch phase. X_X

As usual, I'll upload any changes that will happen if need be.

Chapter 3 Page 20 SKETCH

Not too much to say about this page, other than Sam has a strange obscession with this building. I'm sure this is not gonna be important later on. ;)

Chapter 3 Page 19 Final

Note: I didn't recieve any WIPs for this page, but Atari knocked the tone I wanted out of the park, so no complaints coming from me :P

And now we'll soon get to see where Sam lives! Fun Fact: Geographically, Endspurt is located in the Broadmoore and Madison Park areas, and since it's a fictional area, I was able to get away with the commercial district (seen here, obviously) being based off an area not too far from where I live (if you want specifics, it's the historic district in Redlands...
