Description
A page from a short story I started and discarded recently.You can see some of the pencilled lettering in there. I couldn't make up my mind whether to try lettering by hand or wait to do it digitally. I'm leaning more towards hand-lettering because it's aesthetic is superior.
I may return to it after I make the story resemble something other than hot, soupy diarrhea.
*brush, micron, PS tones

Those brush textures are amazing! So are the narrative and composition. I canΒ΄t even imagine what you had in mind when you started it, to find this result to be "hot, soupy diarrhea" . It look nothing like that from where iΒ΄m standing.
Hope you change your mind and keep working on it!
P.S. Hand lettering, what a pain in the ass. Still, way, way, better.

Okay, okay, I understand you're too shy to ask me to rewrite the page for you, so here you go, pro bono:
Panel 1: Man: "accursed mittens!! How can I contact Captain Forklift with these damned things on??"
Panel 2: Mitten: "HAHAHAHAHA!! You'll NEVER figure me out, you fool!"
Panel 3: Captain Forklift "Hmmm, Jeff should have contacted me by now...unless he put on mittens!! Great Scott!!"
Panel 4: Jeff: "pressing...button...mustn't pass...out*
Panel 5: "boom."
