These two panels alone took... way too many hours lol. All of the JP was still present in the raws so it required a LOT of touch up. They turned out pretty good if I say so myself!!

I made the text design for the game cartridge. The only part of it that I didn't draw was the "100" with stars, that was the OG text I kept! Fitting the text in such a small area was a challenge but in the short amount of time I had, I think it turned out well!

Here's the OG to compare. I don't always hand draw stuff like this, namely cause it's a lot of work, but it feels like it takes longer to find a font and it doesn't feel the same to me. Especially if I can tell the artist drew it themselves! The "astro kid" & "famucon" is @sara.pizza's font Bestagon

The last thing I wanna mention is the poster. The text (aside from the salad part) was also hand drawn! Another example of how I personally find it easier to draw stuff like this versus taking time picking a font. Plus it's way more fun and unique to me!

Anyway, that's it! Go read Chapter 5 of Bug Ego on the Shonen Jump app!!
