The Secret Knots

Work notes: promo comic about ghosts almost done, with a small preview in the ghostly little lady caught in the camera, up here.

 I’m resuming posting on Reddit after a long time. I had to adapt a comic in terms of format, and test a different font. This led to some interesting discussion and tests on the Discord server. In the end, I see the problems with the fonts I’ve been using for Secret Knots comics, specially with readability in the wide range of screens, devices, and the inevitable resizing to comply with social media limitations, and at the same time, I’m not too fond of the standard fonts for comics, even though they tend to a stronger body and higher clarity. So it’s research in progress.
