Description
Aaaaand here we go!I'm happy to finally be launching Distillum after having talked about it for god knows how long. As of now I'll be on a once-a-week update schedule; I'll stick to it as best I can.
This was inked by hand, and I must say, IT WAS REALLY HARD. I've never inked a comic by hand and this was a very educational experience.
Er, enjoy? More to come! Feedback is always welcome

Lovely sequencial art skills I'm seeing here, I look forward to reading whatever pages you have up so far. It'll help to provide links to previous/next pages though. 8))

Thanks! It's tricky - and it's also kinda funny that you would say this on page one. This was the first page I ever inked. EVER.

I'm with Kiriska, I know they're a pain, but they really do blend the text with the art. You should continue to do your own ballons.
This is a really awesome start pickles. I will definitely be reading this.

What are you inking the comic with? Tech pens or quill nibs?

This is really great! I'm impressed with your skill for being so new to the art or comic-making! ^_^ I wish my first page was as comprehensive!

Heh, yeah. It was my unzipper that was messing up, not the font itself.

Hahaha, nix the question on your journal -- saw that before I saw this. XD This looks great! I love the handlettering especially. The style in generally looks very fun; can't wait to see more!

sarahpicklesdill In reply to Kiriska [2010-04-10 00:52:12 +0000 UTC]
Thanks! And it's actually not handlettered - that's Blambot Pro! It's a great font that has both upper and lower case sets. I picked it because it looks handwritten :3

Haha, well that's pretty sweet! Did you do the bubbles by hand? I think that's what threw me off. o:

Yeah, they're by hand. I might change that, though, since they're kind of a pain :\

They look good though! And really help integrate the text in with the art. :>
