Episode 3 comes to an end as Henry Decker reflects on opening night.
I won’t be publishing a comic next week as I’m still writing Episode 4. Hopefully, I’ll only need a week. Guh.
Thanks for reading!

Fascinating look at Illustrator Von Glitschka’s logo creation process.
Many times an agency will mock up a design direction in order to get a client to sign off on it. Once they have it approved they’ll approach me with their rough idea and want me to flesh it out into it’s final form. This type of project usually means I’ll be leveraging both my design and illustration skills to pull it off.
This project will take you through the entire creative process I used to pull off this illustrative logo design, from shooting my own photo reference material to refining my vector artwork with precision.

Dorothy looks back on her first night of work.
Yes, I know it’s taken months of real time to get through one NIGHT of Winchcombe time, but as I might have mentioned before, I’m approaching this series as a television series.
Next week’s strip will mark the end of what would be the second episode of the WInchcombe television series.

I think there might be one or two things in this collection of Illustrator scripts that I could use in lettering my comics.
I think the Divide Text Frame would be useful when working with sound effects or shouted dialogue.
With this script you can divide multi-line text fields into separate text frame objects, making it easy to separate lists, navigation items, and more.
Speeding up the chopping up of a block of text could come in handy.
Another on that might cut down on some fiddling and CMD-Zs is the Metaball script.
This script will create connecting arcs from shapes you have drawn. Very useful when connecting basic shapes to create more complex shapes for logos, icons and illustrations.
I can see using this to create a more organically shaped balloon, much like the final balloon this week’s The Winchcombe strip.
But I like these scripts. Seeing stuff like this always makes me wish that I had learned how to do this myself when I had more free time.
By the way, I think I got this link from a post on Art Geek Zoo a while back. Check it out.
