Not exactly how I wanted it when I began and I had to cut it short because I got stuck, but fair enough. You wanted a story, I gave you many sentences following each other up in a more or less logical sense.

The illustration looks good. That rag, both in its shape and existence in the first place, doesn't really make sense. The automaton's design is crude, which is both a flaw and a major part of its charm.

Cheers.

Xephio responds:

Hell dude, that's fantastic. i dig it a lot.
bob felt naked without the rag so it was a last minute thing i added and the fact i suck at drawing cloth shapes explains why it doesnt make sense.
still a great text format, very grim and unsettling
