A word on fonts 05 Mar 2010
Well typography is its own beast.
You may have noticed the fonts I used on one of my previous uploads. Somehow, those fonts seem too simple.
Of course, having yet to decide colors and overall the general look that the comic will have, it's probably too early to worry about fonts. But it's fun to play with them.
I tried a few (recommended to me by a real designer). From top to bottom, the fonts are: AlexsHand 36 points; Flood Std 36 points; Freestyle Script 48 points; YoungsHand 36 points. All 100% spacing.
Playing with fonts and a bit of ink applied to the previous scan.
At this stage I seem to prefer the first one, although I'll try all of them again when drawing the final page. By the way, it takes ages to ink...
