Hey folks!
My friend Joe Edens (responsible for the webcomic Rabbid Force) asked me how I make my word balloons non-elliptical, so I threw this tutorial together for him. It uses Photoshop, but you can do this in Illustrator and it probably applies to other art programs similarly.
In other news, the campaign for the second episode of my webcomic, The Super-Gay Adventures of Ross Boston, is live on Indiegogo. Donations are appreciated, but so is sharing the link wherever. Thank you!

Aaaah! Thank you for this! I’m just about to letter a big project and always wondered how to do this. <3
http://www.balloontales.com/ is also a great resource for more tutorials on digital inking/lettering! It’s what my professors taught from at SCAD. =)
A Japanese tutorial on how to draw plaid on skirts, but can be used on any piece of clothing. The images are easy to follow, so the text is not important. Can be used with any medium or style. Source unknown.
THANK YOU!
it’s pretty amazing that usually you want to avoid tangents but this movie is ALL about tangents and it WORKS.

A big ol’ tip on drawing cities from street-level. Sorry for the crude drawings, but I think they get the point across :)
Enjoy!
1-point/2-point perspective was taught in my high school by drawing city streets the same as in example #1.
I quickly realized when studying reference images that REAL LIFE DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY.
