Panel 9 is a 10/10 epitaph, and I demand a donation from anyone who uses it.

At some point my neighbors are going to start wondering why I shout “oh, how’s THAT gonna come up!?” at ever-increasing volumes three times a week.
Was Jane being a professional line painter established before this? All I remember about her was her talking to that bag of fertilizer (or whatever it was).
And who was that dark creature again?
I never knew the driving force behind 3D pens was sheer professionalism.
What I imagine being said in the prequel: “That’s it, Xipe Totec! I’m gonna make a living painting the sky!”
Circle: Setting up the labyrinthine opening might’ve been my favorite part of this project. Never really done it before. Whether or not I deserve to add “mystery” to the list of Mountain Time genres is, however, ultimately up to the reader.
Jane wasn’t established as a line painter before, but that’s been my head canon for her for quite some time.
The dark creature is Braxton, the Flatwoods Monster. I realized I needed to add it to the characters page, but it looks like I accidentally saved the hi-res version of this strip down to lo-res. And the scan and original drawing are buried under hundreds of other scans and drawings. That’ll take a minute to figure out.
NAR: With sufficient professionalism, you can accomplish anything. Except for upward social mobility.
Xin: That seems like more gumption than Jane could ever muster. It was probably more like, “It figures, Xipe Totec. Other people make money to do lines, but I’ve gotta make lines to do money.”
I don’t know why Mountain Time always seems to promote nose drugs, but there you go.
this must be how the ADVENTURE LINE (TM) gets painted. I knew it was rabbitses all along
I’m trying to figure out what I’m looking at in the penultimate panel, but all I can notice is a bit of sky not colored in at the top left. That’s a fun thing to find out when you don’t have easy access to the original..
Cold: Well, now I have the Stanley Parable to look at.
What you’re seeing in the penultimate panel is the line Jane painted waaay off in the distance (which shouldn’t actually be visible, but this is a damn cartoon, you see), veering to the perpendicular because her air-cart-thing was hit by Braxton’s motorboat.
Thanks for catching the uncolored part by the cloud. It’ll be annoying to fix, but thanks.
Edit: It wasn’t that annoying, but the point is that I appreciate it when little mistakes like that are pointed out.
Something something chemtrails. I’m not a funny person.
Good point, Snek! Clearly this is a government ploy to get the entirety of New Lancaster high on paint fumes.
You haven’t Stanley Parable’d yet? There are going to be some meta jokes that rely on you having played the previous versions, but I think you will still enjoy. It’s a real nice mindfuck.
Snek: At least you haven’t spent 14 years making a website to PROVE you aren’t funny.
Cold: I’m not a very dedicated gamer. I’ve got about a dozen Nethack characters waiting for me to get around to finishing their games. So many civilizations that’ve entered the modern era and need my leadership to win the space race. Samus Aran alone in the bowels of planet ZDR wishing for my return.
To my virtual people, I am an absent god.
