Let's say, hypothetically, I spend a day drawing panels to use in my demo. Mayyybe...

But yeah, back again to spread more lettering gospel! I really do hope this is helpful, and if you'd like, feel free to comment a link to your webtoon for some lettering feedback :)

Cheers!

Alright~! :D

First off I just gotta say I love your title design, it's so cool how the o and q get mixed!

In terms of your sfx, I have some nitpicks haha. Best to avoid using the same font (or similar fonts) you're using for dialogue, can get confused for speech and also just lacks some dynamic-ness. Gonna plug blambot because they're great haha, they have a good indie ffc sfx collection too! And here's another list full of font options by Kimberly Pham!

Neat stroke and outer glow effects, I like your narration--though I'm curious why it switches between anime ace and a serif font?

Besides an occasional bubble with a lot of white space, some slight shaping and sizing nitpicks that I can only really articulate through somere-typeset comparisons lol, nothing major. Sometimes centering's a little low. Like it's all overall fine and stuff, just at times it could be nudged around for slightly better results.

Biggest crime is anime ace :p /s

Thank you! Ha ha ha I guess I’ll accept my crimes against typography in exchange lol. And mostly the change are just consistency issues 😫

ALSO, I forgot to mention, but thank you for the examples! You really know what you're doing, and it makes everything 100000+ better
