For today, I mostly did some photoshop practice. this was an older layout page I did featuring DC Comics' Lex Luthor and his assistant, Mercy. I took the dirty rough sketched layout and cleaned it up and straightened it out and replaced all the frame borders with the line tool. I also re-typed the hand lettering on the original piece. I'd like to find a better font for lettering than ComicSans but haven't had the time. Ideally I'd like to make a font out of my own handwriting someday and use that. Looking at this I realiz that I really want to draw this page as finished art and that next time I think I'll try to letter/border in illustrator and see if I can't get a result I like better. As for now, I'm going back to the drafting table.
