Tips & Tools For Lettering Comics *Adobe Illustrator: Industry Standard used by the likes of Marvel,DC,Vertigo & Image comics etc. Also works superbly with Photoshop(photomanipulation/digital painting) and InDesign(compositing/final print layout) [www.adobe.com] *CorelDraw: Not an industry standard comes in a close 2nd after Illustrator because it has tools & feature similar to the above. [www.coreldraw.com] *Affinity Designer: Another good tool though with limited capacities for manipulation exclusively for Mac users [www.affinity.serif.com] *Inkscape: Give it a try if you want an alternative [www.inkscape.org] *Manga Studio: Great for manga style comics & lettering not so for all genres of comic lettering [www.smithmicro.com] Creating Your Own Fonts *Fontagrapher and Type Tool [www.fontlab.com] *Glyphs [www.glyphsapp.com] Happy Easter #ComicHeads... |

Who Makes A Comic Team?!! This is a question that bothers any newbie or intermediate illustrator who wants to take his or her comic idea to the next level usually asks. With that said & done let's this started with the list below... *Comic Creator/Writer *Editor *Comic Illustrator(s) for the Interior Pages & ComicBook Cover Art (pencils/inks) *Colourist(s) for the Interior Pages & ComicBook Cover Art *Letterer Traditional or Digital methods are up to the team. A combination of both styles is usually used regardless...watch out for more info... Courtesy of Dm3DRev Studeos Blog www.dm3drev-studeos..com 1 Like |

A question that bugs a lot of newbies or hobbyists alike is what aspect is the most physically tasking and mentally draining aspect of creating comics from writing the script,penciling,inking,coloring,lettering,graphic design and print layout. I would say all of the aspects in varying degrees and also depends on what the content creator,artist or designer finds easier to get done faster. The only way you can find this out is by working on a portfolio be it your OCs or fan art (no crime). You can start with just a sequential page and keep practicing. What makes a great comic is planning ahead and knowing if you going to be a one man comic team or work with others to form a larger one. Don't be in a rush to publish your comic,know the ropes and level up to what is out there averagely. Read this article by Jason Fabok (DC Comics kickass illustrator trained by David Finch) and I must warn it's very blunt... http://jasonfabok..com/2011/10/creating-comic-book-portfolio-ramblings.html?m=1 |
