World of Warcraft: "Subtle"

The way I see it, when Blizzard put in Battlemasters for the different PVP zones... they were basically telling us to stop hanging around the entrance to Warsong.
In case you're missing it... there's a "No Loitering Sign" on the front of the cave entrance.
Yeah yeah, I know. It's kinda sublte. But hey, I thought it was funny at the time.

And, as for the graphics in the comic. Well, I was all over the board with this one. I started with actual game graphics assembled together to try to make the point, and keep the image subtle.
Then I started a sketch, and figured I'd ink and color the comic as usual. But, I thought it might mess up the "subtlety". So I abandonned it.
And THEN... I mixed the two, inking with the line tool. It was an interesting notion. But, I wasn't happy with the end result. It was okay until I put in the thicker lines. But, I abandonned it an went back to the original concept.
Long way to go for a "No Loitering" sign huh?
