I started following this comic because of how intriguingly little you’ve told so far of how things work, combined with the high quality art. This page has me completely hooked. I look forward to reading more!
I love the dialog between the girls, and I love how Liz seems just a tidge territorial over Penny’s questions. And of COURSE they used to (still are?) date. They have coordinating tattoos for Pete’s sake. If that’s not eternal love, I don’t know what is.
I sometimes have drawn these completely digitally, but I’ve been doing the linework on bristol board, so when people buy prints, I can slip one of these originals in with it 🙂
So lately I’ve only been coloring and illustrating the backgrounds digitally 🙂
Scott, I am so glad I found nerf-this. It was a total accident. and I really thought it was going to be a comic about like, WoW or something. so wrong. Nerf-This is awesome, Scout Crossing, Awesone, and MotoKool? Awesome.
THAT said, Penny knows something, and there is going to be someone who gets their arse handed to them soonish.
I’m happy you do, Austin, and I’m even more pleased to see that you like all 3 of my comics 🙂
I’ve thought many times about changing the name of Nerf This because it’s a gaming term, but after a year of having the name, I believe I’m pot committed now.
And Penny knows a lot, and she’s luckily going to spill the beans 🙂
Love the comic – rapidly becoming one of my favorites – but I’ve got a question that I don’t see an obvious answer to. How often does Scout update? I know Nerf-this is every weekday.
Scout doesn’t have a firm update schedule, but I usually get two comics up a week, in the beginning and the end. Motokool also updates once a week on a Monday.
Thank you for the kind words, I do try to get back to everyone, because I don’t think any of this wouldn’t be possible with awesome people like you reading, if you take the time to write, the least I can do is write back 🙂
Something tells me Scout’s gonna go Super Saiyan! :O
😉
God, those tattoos are fucking sexy. I’m absolutely sure I’d fawn and fondle them in reality.
haha, unfortunately i have tattoos like Scout, no white ink 🙁
Red’s my favorite color, so it’s all good. ;D The white is knockout gorgeous, but I like the idea of feather tattoos all together. =]
Wait, they’re red on the print, but yellow everywhere else. 😛 Still, really awesome.
dohoho
I really like the last panel. not really sure why.
I’d say those last two panels are my favorite of Penny 🙂

I’m really glad to hear that, thank you, and I hope to see you stick around, things are going to get fairly ridiculous fairly soon 🙂

it’s as if a really pretty girl helped you write this. or maybe you secretly are a really pretty girl? i mean, either way…
pfft, the only thing pretty about me is my 8 pots of coffee I drink (heart problems, here I come) 😉
but i thank yo for fixing the awkwardness of the moment, couldn’t have done it without you.
Huh, Penny talks like a girl I know. It’s… eerie, really.
That is eerie, if you lived in my area, that would be even creepier haha
wait, does penny talk like a girl YOU know?
haha, similar in some ways, but in a respect, almost all of my characters have tendencies that my friends/not friends would have.
oh em gee!! Penny and Scout!?!?
This is awesome!! Just keeps getting better!!!
It’s going to get ridiculous very soon (but this convo between Liz and Penny is very much needed) 🙂
ps do u draw on artboard then colour with photoshop?
or is it all done digitally?

Love your comic, man! Thanks for the ad at Legend of Bill – so I could find it! 😉 GREAT art style.
P.S. I’m talking about Scout Crossing – I already knew about Nerf This of course! 😉 I didn;t know you did this one!
I’m happy I could advertise on your site David, I love Legend of Bill 🙂 And I’m happy you like Scout, I love illustrating and writing this comic.
I even have a 3rd comic that updates once a week, called Motokool, and a 4th comic that’s launching at the end of this month.
The Plot thickens!
The last panel with penny just cracks me up. I can totally hear the partially exasperated confusion in her voice when I look at it.
I was really happy with how that turned out, I was scared with how heavy the dialog was in this post, I’m happy everyone liked it 🙂

I’m really glad to hear that Aluroon, thank you 🙂

You sir are my favorite webcomic author. I love all of your work.
Seconded, particularly in that you try to get back and reply to the comments of your readers. It’s one of those things that sets you apart.
Thank you for the kind words, I do try to get back to everyone, because I don’t think any of this wouldn’t be possible with awesome people like you reading, if you take the time to write, the least I can do is write back 🙂
Thank you Seras, that is really awesome to hear, thank you for absolutely making my day 🙂
Love the comic, and especially your art style. A pleasure to read through so far.
Thank you! I’m really trying had to try new things, and hoping to get better too 🙂
Again, thank you for the kind words, I’m really happy you’re a fan.
