Homestead Attack - Page 2

Here's Page Two. I'm probably going to switch the sound effect fonts eventually once I find some better ones. Anyone know any free comic SFX fonts? I'm really getting a kick out of coloring this thing, though my hand is hating me for it. I can't figure it out, but I can draw all day long with no problem. However, coloring and especially drawing with a Wacom Intuos gives me Repetetive Stress symptoms.

So, it's looking like I'm going to need a colorist, which is kind of sad, but ultimately okay by me. Coloring is one area I don't mind turning over to somebody else eventually.

Hmm...yeah so I was thinking about that font and it does feel a little out of place. Kinda pasted on as an after thought. It you could get it to integrate better...
I also like the warm and cool colors on this panel but not as much. I have a suggestion about it. Remind me to tell it to you when I see you, I think it will be easier.

www.blambot.com for free comic fonts. I'm not sure what you're doing with this comic comercially speaking so read the readme that comes with them to make sure your comic fits the category of people that can use them free.

Hey Richard...Yeah...I'm trying to learn more about sound effects and fonts. I'll replace the crappy stuff eventually. Not sure about Blambot. I think you have to pay a fee if you use the font professionally. I'm already using one of their fonts for my lettering font. So, I'll unavoidably be paying them some amount of money in the future.

Manelle, you'll have to let me know what ya think! Advice on what could make it better is totally wanted! I'm feeling a lot more confident with altering my stuff now.

Robert, thanks, I'm definitely trying to figure out a way to keep coloring this thing. It's kinda fun, so I'd hate to give it up.
