This is my first tutorial. Making these word balloons will not take anywhere near as long as it did for me to make this for you all.

Note: As for that Japanese parasol creature's dialogue, I went to altavista.com and used the Babelfish Translator to translate "Hello, ghoul. I come from the wonderous land of the rising sun." I translated that into Japanese, and then translated the Japanese text back into English to come up with this odd phrase. I thought it was amusing how that happens.

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-03-11

For deviations as awesome and as helpful as Word Balloon Tutorial I'm perfectly happy to crawl out of comics and cartoons and slap 'em with a DD! Friendly and easy to follow, this tutorial is a great tool for all comic and cartoon artists. Don't miss out on the rest of *dynamicsketch's fantastic gallery!

I've always wondered how to do that...

So now I know.

And knowing is half the battle!

This is a signature. 90% of people on dA don't read signatures. If you're one of those 90%, then putting this in your signature identifies you as a hypocrite. The remaining 10% of people are fictional.

ah yes, I love odd translations, a friend of mine once used a server to type "suck my balls" and after changing it to japanese, he changed it back and got "inhale my sphere"
