Post a Comment*I was shocked to read of a Glen Este student being shot by a Clermont County man for walking on his lawn in the Cincinnati paper via internet yesterday. I grew up about 15 minutes from where the shooting happened. Later, I saw it on my home page as an ABC news clip. I can't believe it. I can't believe that something so bizarre could happen so close to my old home.
I always think the violence is somewhere else and where I grew up was "different." But, alas, crazy people with guns live in our home towns able to snap at the slightest annoyance.
please please please draw AK!
I have a question...
What do you use for lettering on the final drawings? brush or pen?
love the drawings!
Thanks.
Sometimes I letter with a D5 Speedball pen nib, especially as a caption underneath the cartoon.
When the caption is within a voice bubble, I typically draw each letter individually with Micron 03 pens.
In Zits, I letter with an 05 Micron or an 08 for emphasis. And I individually draw the letters of shouted or italicized words.
