Finally finished my contribution to The Fantastic Four No. 9 Project. I'm working on a 10x15 page. I always enjoy doing the hand lettering just like in the old days. India ink and a sable brush was used. These are the rough pencils and the finished inks.

Happy Canada Day ( Formerly Dominion Day)!

It's Canada's 143rd birthday. Canada Day, is Canada's national day, a federal statutory holiday celebrating the anniversary of the July 1, 1867, enactment of the British North America Act (today called the Constitution Act, 1867), which united two British colonies and a province of the British Empire into a single country called Canada. This year, Queen Elizabeth is in Ottawa during the celebrations.
