    When they call you a dinosaur for hand lettering remind them that dinosaurs are extinct and you still roam the earth

      you prolly dont care but if you guys are bored like me during the covid times then you can watch all of the new movies on InstaFlixxer. Been binge watching with my gf recently :)

      You could remind them that dinosaurs evolved into birds so were surrounded by dinosaurs and most of them can fly.

    Very cool indeed. Enjoyed the demonstration. Well done. JFYI, isometric ellipses are 35° 16'. You could use a 35° ellipse template but isometrics are 35° 16'. Useless trivia, I suppose. Your draughtsmanship is crisp not only on the lettering but also your drawings.

    Awesome! Great job! Subscribed! Keep up to the awesome work! I can’t wait to buy this once this coronavirus bull crap Is over. Great! I love it! Also I have a question can I use the lettering circle thing also with a regular ruler?

    • @AmandaKahl
      @AmandaKahl  4 роки тому

      You sure can! I use the triangle to make sure that the lines are perpendicular to the edge of the panels and not sloping slightly one way or the other, but the Ames lettering guide will work with a ruler as well.

      Hey Adam! This is my comic, Age of Night. This particular page ended up in Volume 3: www.amazon.com/dp/1796844381/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_AIaIDbMYB2WAP

    Thank you! This was so, so helpful for me. I've been trying to find a video just like this as I start my comic journey, but videos were either a bit dry or hard to follow or way too long. This felt very practical and easy to understand, and made it seems much less daunting to use these tools. A hundred thank yous!

    "complete artifacts" is a lot how I think of my pages, too. They're not nearly as complete as yours, but I share the old school sentiment for sure. Thank you for this tutorial! I'm doing a couple pages of lettering and it helped me brush back up on the Ames guide settings to use.

    It's hard to find good videos about drawing/lettering comics by hand. I do my lettering on the computer cuz my writing sucks, but the rest is all hand drawn. I so appreciate your videos!

      You're so welcome! This is definitely the Old School way, but it's the way I prefer to work :) Digital lettering is a whole other beast.

    I see you’ve used a blue pencil, which I understand helps in getting a clean scan of the artwork later on. Is there a reason you don’t use this same pencil for doing your lettering lines and the text here? Thanks for the videos!

    • @AmandaKahl
      @AmandaKahl  2 роки тому +2

      I think it's mostly psychological, lol. My brain is convinced that blue pencil is for drawing, gray pencil is for writing!
      I will say that using a different color pencil helps me to focus on the lettering as separate from the drawing and not get confused. I draw my perspective grids in red and pink pencil for the same reason.

    • @AmandaKahl
      @AmandaKahl  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you! I usually use an HB pencil lead. Erases pretty easily and I don't accidentally end up digging into the paper with it.
