Summary
In this chapter, we learned about how to use the Text tool and the settings for editing and fine-tuning text. We learned how to create a custom text tool to save text settings for our comic projects. Then, we learned how to create speech balloons with tails, how to connect speech balloons, and about the speech balloon materials.
These skills are great to have, for not only lettering and drawing speech balloons faster and more accurately, but also so you can have your own unique look of dialogs. Text in comics and manga is indeed part of your creation and is as important as your art in telling a story.
In the next chapter, we will learn about some techniques for inking the art while also looking at the many available inking tools.
