I tried to draw your neck relative to how you draw it; you may also be forgetting that your shoulders are there.
I don't know, maybe you're trying to 'reach' and escape, like in the cartoons.

"A game, a simple contest between me and a couple friends where we draw stacked avatars."

I have spent 3 weeks on this drawing. It is now complete. I have encountered many difficulties with this drawing, and this will be the last one presented by me today.

Behold!

And now, I leave. Thank you for your time.


Some quick notes:
I scanned this with the lesser scanner of the two, and I plan on using the better one. I will also add Lightning Fire at that point in time. That time should be Monday afternoon, depending on whether or not you guys remind me.
This has to be one of the best ones ever done yet. Great job!

Now I really want a scanner.

I'm backing off from another tower drawing for now.
There are 5 more plausible characters that I could add, though...

However, I think that the story that Hugo's developing is also a little complex, especially with the new characters that I've added.

All together, there's been about 31 images for this project.
(I would compare this to a forum game, but I don't want this to have the same fate that 'the comic' game did.)

Yeah, this has turned out pretty nicely.

Nothing too advanced, not that I remember. I want to go fight Kiashi together with victinistar, though.

Oh, and I thought of something not too advanced, but really funny. Spoilers 'cause I'll reveal it ALL, just as I want it, so it can be a surprise-breaker. Suit yourself:

SPOILER ALERT:
Victini needs my help 'cause he can't fight Kiashi alone. I can't much, so I'll need a high-advanced gun, really technological. I escape for a moment, and by using portals I get in a REEEEEEEEEEEALY far place. As I enter there, a sweet, robotic woman voice says: "Why did you return since I almost killed you? You really want to die, don't you?" (it's GLaDOS, of course, and I'm in Aperture). I answer "Hold your breath, I've got something you'll REALLY like!". She sends me to her chamber, and she says "What on Earth could make me not kill y..." and I suddenly show her Black Mesa's Gravity Gun. She says "I hate you..."

Victini is having a lot of trouble in the fight, but I suddenly return with an Aperture Science [something I didn't came up with, but deadly and high-tech]. Then I'll let the fight itself to Victini (or someone else). But I REALLY WANT to use both my Portal Gun AND the high-tech gun. If I don't come up with anything I might consider just using Wheatley's bomb thrower...

To spoiler my response to Hugo's spoiler... Forgot to do it the first time.
The reason GLaDOS lets you go is because it wpuld e easier to let you go than kill you... wouldn't that make some wierd paradox? Unless you gave your test subject a different backstory from Chell's.

Portal elements will be hard to incorperate... but I may be able to figure something out.

Please put that in [sp][/sp] tags, 'cause spoilers...

 My story line is a bit different from Chell storyline. Spoiler for my OC story, she returns to Aperture after some time (while I'm being tested) and she helps me escape... Also, GLaDOS didn't LET me go, I escaped succesfully...

Just an announcement:
If I do another tower drawing, then someone else, anyone, has to draw a quality tower drawing first. (Aka stuff that doesn't belong in the scribbles category.) It also must add people that are well-known and are recognized by their signature character.
And no, I am not taking requests of who will be in. I will pick and choose whom I see fit.

I have also planned out the ending (aka how we all fall) to the tower, and only victinistar knows about it's comedic ending.

Speaking of which, he may be drawing a comic where he goes around and fights Kiashi.

What about my fall drawing? As I said, I can add more characters there whenever new ones get added. I'll add soon the ones you added in your latest drawing too. But is it something that will happen just before my "The Fall" drawing?

Also, I decided to make my multi-panel drawing. I'm also drawing a bit of explanation to Sundae, and it has flashbacks of what happened before she woke up (aka we bringing her to the hospital and "convincing" (read: suborning) the doctors to let an animal enter).

This will be 5 panels, plus the story I told before, 2 panels between the explanation and the story, 13 panels of my story and 4 panels before the big fight. In the total, it'll be 24 panels! It's almost obligatory that I split it into smaller parts, right? Or there is no problem if I make it this big? Or should I ask for someone to make the explanation part (aka we bringing her to the hospital bla bla bla...)? Because I've got 2 panels of it done already, but I don't mind... Also, this new multi-panel would be right after my latest drawing, so I think there should be someone else's drawing to break the "double-drawing" thing.

Also, to make this VERY EPIC, I'll try to add colors, but I don't promise anything...

My 'fall' of the tower is simply what causes everyone to fall, not a copy of what Hugo drew.
Otherwise, I'm looking forwards to your next drawing.

Edit:
One more clarification: My drawing will take place before yours, Hugo.

I knew you weren't going to copy my drawing, but you already answered my question: it's going to be something that happens just before my "The Fall" drawing.

As for my next drawing, I'll just throw away what I've done so far for the sake of cooperation and not individuality, but I'll make my not much epic story before the big fight in lots of detailed, comic-like panels, full of vibrating colors (hopefully).

Also, I don't think the fight should be the end of "Keep Beating the Dead Horse". There are more little things to happen, like getting Kiashi into rehab, for example ;)

I spent a good half-hour updating the timeline with better text.

Also:
Can I tag along with you on your journey, Hugo?
I wanna get in on that Kiashi fight later...

Or should I do my own comic subset, where as suggested, I find my inner self by (Fiagra's suggestion) finding 'love'?

Yup. An action.
EDIT:
I think MM102 should also go and do something, while Idiot watches after Sundae.
Maybe MM102 goes and collects the remaining characters who didn't come to the hospital to witness Kiashi's battle or something.

There's a lot more Dead horse comics / panels, coming soon. (All within a month or so.)
Another tower drawing (hopefully) from Saulo.
Another tower drawing follow-up to that, from me.
A follow-up to Sundae waking up, from me.
A (long) comic subset from Victinistar.
A comic subset from Hugo.
A comic subset from me.
Don't blame Saulo if he doesn't do the tower drawing, he's mentioned that he's busy with school. Hugo, you're my next choice to do a tower drawing.

I am also announcing a Sundae-waking-up follow-up, of which was 'directed' by Hugo.
And lastly, I'm doing a small comic subset about my preparations against Kiashi.

I knew you would be able to.

My comic subset happens to go over 16 frames...
In other words, I'm splitting it up into multiple parts.
I've finished the draft of part 1, but I haven't drawn the frames yet.

I have drawn the frames for your hospital follow-up though, Hugo. (I also edited the script a little...) Haven't drawn in them, though since I want to do them in ink and not pencil that I'll end up erasing.

I also have ideas for a follow-up to what happens after the tower falls, as well as a couple of frames of what Turret's doing throughout the series.
They're pretty funny.

(Hooray for post 800!)

Your comic is not longer than mine.
You just fit more detail into larger frames- I can do the equivalent.
Besides, the draft I showed you involved stick figures.
(I guess yours takes place over a longer span of time..? It didn't really seem like it, as it involved a lot of running. My comic didn't involve breaks either.)

No insults until a final product, please.

You called mine the "(long) comic subset" and yours just "comic subset". You're basically saying mine is longer by not giving yours the "long" title. That's what I was referencing xD

Someone's gotta be taking pictures of the longest running fad in SYS history. Only when Luna and Turtle joined the pile, did I start to question whether or not this was funny and could cause some serious damage. But, as someone with questionable moral integrity, I find myself stuck on continuing to capture this moment in photos, or stop the pile up that is inevitably going to hurt everyone on the bottom.

I... Don't know what to do now...
In my current subset (is more than half done) I trade the gravity gun with GLaDOS. I thought of having Wheatley's bomb thrower as the trade result, but I think now I'll make a gun similar to the gravity gun that shoots projectiles (most likely bombs)...

Maybe, when getting back, the portal gun falls with you through the portal. Then the portal closes...

The portal gun has a note written on it:

It's okay. My ultimate gun to go along with the portal gun was still undefined, so it's okay. Although it will NOT be a gravity gun, because it'll be useless without things to throw. It'll probably be some high-tech shooting things gun. Probably Wheatley's bombs, which will be redirected by portals to get a better range.
