This is one of those rare ‘Cross had an idea and wanted to do it’ scenes. Drawing it first then adding in the dialogue. Kris supplying the dialogue for the last seven panels.
Ah the Draconis. Cross like’s drawing dragons, though technically this one SHOULD be an ‘energy dragon.’
Hadn’t quite gotten the hang of transitioning sunsets yet here. ~ Cross
That ring, right there. BIG deal.
Here Kris thought I should have had Seb’s laughing fit last two more panels. He was right. I should have. ~ Cross
Thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of this scene. Especially the backgrounds. And attitudes. ~ Cross
FINALLY! Figured out how to do Aly’s skintone! It was one of those lightbulb moments, I realized I had cool grey Copics, and voilà. ~ Cross Also helped that I finally remembered what reference to show her. ~K

See? Nate’s not a total jerk. He cares.
Seriously, I was so tired of that yellow wall. I wanted to celebrate when this scene came and it marked me being done with it. ~ Cross
Personally I thought the lab looked way better in pencils. The screens are a photoshop addition and helped my opinion of how it all looked. ~ Cross
Panel count wise, technically this is the longest strip, though it took one less page of drawing than scene 51.
