I video’d myself drawing this one- in that stop-motion sorta video, so it only takes, like, 28 seconds to letter and draw the whole thing. It’s nuts. Anyhow, it’s available to see if you’re a Patron of Hubris at Patreon. It’ll show up in your email inbox and you can look at it.
Or you could go looking around online, I guess. It’s out there somewhere.
Anyhow, I penciled really quick because I was afraid the video would be boring if I didn’t move along. I had fun making all the decisions as I inked instead of working them out more carefully in pencil first.
One of these days, I’ll pencil a whole strip slow and easy and video that for you while I talk about the aforementioned decisions made as I draw. That’ll be fun. Patrons will know when it’s ready. It’ll show up in your email.
I want Mal to at least go down screaming in this event. We owe him that much. He may be a shlub of a manager, but he is prepared to take a massive hit for the team. Someone steal some cans from Teem Beer so we can prepare for a toast.
i’m going to guess Durnell is wondering if this would have been improved with drinking or not.
i mean… it’s pretty nuts With Out drinking but is it tolerable to one’s sanity with out it? it’s a bit of a toss, quite honestly.
As stated before I still believe most sports are the direct result of a drunken bet. Caber tossing is a prime example. No sober person would try to see who could lob a tree the farthest.
I can think of two possible reasons:
1: Got bored stacking firewood and decided to try and do it without walking.
2: Got bored beating those puny invaders with normal weapons, and decided to see how many they could take out with one spear – which quickly ballooned as they found that bigger spears took out more foes.
Not only farthest, but aiming the right direction too. I’m sure plenty of whisky was involved.
I would do the SAME FACE as Durnell…
As a retired caber tosser, I’m enjoying this mini-arc.
Mal better consider putting a shirt back on if he wants to avoid a “caber kiss” (the bruise a lot of throwers will get between their neck and shoulder from the weight of the caber pushing on their shoulder).
We will go ahead and call your funeral arrangements Mal.
Durnell’s last two faces … are what I felt like yesterday.
LOVE this one.
