Cartoon

Some credit is due here. I'm still warming up my old skills, and I decided to do this one with real pens (crow quills, speedballs, india ink, and all that). I splattered some ink and butchered the lettering, but wanting to get this up and move ahead, I decided to use a font rather than redraw and scan the lettering seperately. That font is Gnatfont, by Kaare Andrews. It's my favorite of the many 'comic book' fonts floating around on the internet, but I like doing hand-lettering as much as possible, even though I tend to be hasty about it. This font, though, is very nice.

UPDATE: Oops ... fixed a typo in the text. Glad I spotted it before anyone else did.

Dennis, seriously, your cartoon is so good that I backdated my post to keep yours on top.

Keep it up!
