Back to handlettering!

So lovely.

The statue of Venus a very nice touch there as well. In the pencils I think she looked more like the way she shows herself to Felix.

And that HAIR! OMG.. Last panel. I can see why it takes a full time slave to maintain it.

Your handlettering is so nice. The hand-drawn balloons feel much friendlier somehow; they just match the drawing style better, to my eye.

One thing-- third panel, you put "haved lived" instead of "have lived."

Yah, now Venus is a little more like the original statue, though a mirror image copy.

Why, Calatoria's hairdo is nothing compared to what the women must be getting up to in the imperial court :)

Yeah, all things considered, I'm still in favor of the hand lettering; the little idiosyncrasies (not typos, but variation in spacing, etc) look more like the vagaries of inflection to me; the foninator was okay, but the marydale looked inorganic; of course, that's just this idiot's opinion :)

Sorry, that was Caleb.

Count me as another fan of hand lettering.
