Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 979 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | ![]() To be fair, this pic was easy to pose. Most of the work for this one goes to Anarchemitis, because he altered the color filters, opened the pod bay doors, added text, and made it all pretty. Really, it was just an idea of the Heavy getting mad in City 17 for the customs people touching Sasha. Then I had the idea. What if they went on? Would that make it awesome? Short answer, yes. Long answer, YES. This is the loveable pilot, which is nothing like it's offspring. Trust me, you'll like them. Tomorrow. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1772 Joined: 21 Aug 2008 | I like where this is going. Looking forward to the next installment, assuming there is one. |

Well, it's a journey through Half-Life 2. We came pretty well prepared if I can pose about 5 of these a day. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1766 Joined: 22 Apr 2008 | Best of luck to you. Looks like it will succeed with flying colors (and, by the look of it, Combine). |

Oooh, I can't wait for Water Hazard. Gonna be fun to see how the duo handles that. |

Infamous Scribbler Posts: 608 Joined: 6 Oct 2008 | Love it. Look forward to the whole thing coming together! Big fan of the whole series of both games... |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 765 Joined: 9 Apr 2008 | Concerned 2.0? You are going to have to work a bit to make sure it doesn't look like you are ripping off Concerned. Make sure that you vary the jokes so it doesn't turn into a simple "Oh Heavy, whatever am I going to do with you?" kind of thing every week. Good luck though. |

We are not ripping off Concerned. Freeman won't come in, and we have an idea to go to the episodes. No wonky "Counter Strike teleportation" mishaps, and no weapons acquired from the game. Just a medic and a Heavy on vacation. |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 3252 Joined: 8 May 2008 | "It's safer here" Ha, golden. I can't wait for the next installment. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3643 Joined: 3 Apr 2008 | This is quite good |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2538 Joined: 29 Mar 2008 | I hope you two realises this pumps my essential webcomic reading to 8 i look forward to seeing what you do with it |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3923 Joined: 15 Aug 2008 | Oh I am looking forward to where this will end up......... |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1796 Joined: 29 Dec 2007 | How long do you think this is going to go? Looks amazing, but seems like it could take a long time to make them depending on how intricate each "scene" is going to be. |
Beat Writer Posts: 184 Joined: 6 Mar 2008 | Well, this should be epic, if it's done right. And pretty funny even if it isn't. Any plans for appearances of the other TF2 characters? |
On the Record Posts: 7327 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 | Oh, definitely. |

I think I can help with that, but ultimately it's their decision. I do like the premise though. |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 979 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 |
It takes between 10 and 20 minutes to make a scene in GMod. For example, I did a scene with 3 ragdolls and a bunch of physics props and it took around 15 minutes, because I am willing to compromise. I have a general idea, and then other things seem to work for me. It then takes about another 10 in a name brand photo editor for a witty caption and something you'll see tomorrow.
You'll see one in particular tomorrow, but we will see all of RED and maybe 4 or 5 BLU. Heavy and Medic are the mains, so be sure to keep your eye on them. I'll tell you our little gimmick tomorrow about a very mysterious man with papers in a blue suit. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1554 Joined: 10 Sep 2008 | this looks cool, but then again I am a sucker for most half life related things. |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 3767 Joined: 18 Dec 2007 | This is pretty neat. I hope the Escapist makes this a feature and gives you guys lots of cash. Cold, Hard, Escapist cash. |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 979 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | I do love cash. I'd probably take it to a nearby Best Buy and proceed to buy a PS3 to play LittleBigPlanet and nothing else. EVER. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1587 Joined: 5 May 2008 | Brilliant, simply brilliant. Can't wait to see more. |
On the Record Posts: 7327 Joined: 23 Dec 2007 | I can't wait to show you all more. |
Press Junketeer Posts: 393 Joined: 27 Sep 2008 | Well done you two. I am very interested to watch how this comic will be going. Best of luck on it! |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 979 Joined: 22 Mar 2008 | In fact, we think there might be. I just need to build one out of tears and dollar bills, but I'll do it. It'll look awesome. |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 4436 Joined: 14 Jan 2008 | How very sweet, I look forward to more. Two days is wonderfully quick as well, none of that week or two long wait nonsense that most people do. |
On the Record Posts: 6961 Joined: 22 Aug 2008 | That's awesome! Looking forward to see more. |

Haha. I was actually going to say 'this is really worrying'. I wonder if it'll show up in quotebox... |

Greetings, fellow Escapists.
Myselfx434343 and I came up with making a web-comic with the Heavy and the Medic going on Vacation through the storyline of Half-Life 2. To be fair, he sent me a picture and I added some effects, and the idea was born from him.Regardless, here's the first installment. Ideally we will do one every two days.
