January 17th, 2000 -- The Trappings & The Suits
Way back in the day, before I discovered the art of speech balloons, I differentiated character dialogue through font selection. On the upside, you could in theory tell who was speaking even when that person didn't appear in a panel. On the downside, I was always having to squeeze the text in around the line art. Notice how the shelves behind Nic are all empty? Really low overhead-- she only does commissioned pieces.

What have I been doing this entire time? I'll tell you: raising a daughter, and learning to draw Celtic knots. That's right.

Okay, strip's up. Little later than I'd like, but what the hey. Wednesday should be back to normal (even though it's gonna be... diff'rent).

There is a strip coming for today... but later. I let the weekend get away with me (had to take the bantling to meet Sinter Klas for the first time), and my telecommuting job is demanding my Monday morning. Fortunately, I'm on a 5 hour time difference from the States, so most of you won't even notice the strip's tardiness. (But the Gopher will notice. Ever watching, ever judging...)
