Okay, here we go! New page! And I think everyone can see where the next page is heading. BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!
I dunno, maybe I should take out Ki's "gulp." in that last panel, it might play better without that--might be pushing the point. I dunno. Anyway, originally, I was gonna color this in marker and colored pencil, but there ended up being too many inking mistakes for that to look good. I mean, there was a wobbly line running not-quite-parallel below the line at the top of Ki's muzzle. Wouldn't have looked right without the Photoshop fix, which is a lot easier for something I'm coloring digitally, than something traditional, with a different texture to it. Not impossible, just harder. Anyway, that mistake, with all the others just made my decision for me. SO THAT'S THE STORY THERE!
