ReplyDeleteIt must be a lot easier using computers for speech bubbles etc..today for drawing comic pages. Love looking at the brush strokes and in a larger size.
Glad I bought it...very inspiring
Hi Peter, Glad it arrived safely. The lettering was done by Jack Potter, a veteran letterer for IPC & Fleetway. I'd send the pages to him with my script, he'd letter them, and send them on to the editor.
ReplyDeleteYes, computers have changed lots of aspects of comics. Personally I prefer colouring with Photoshop than using inks. I still draw the strips on paper though.
