"Our Maine Vacation" (Whale-watch)


Another continuation from the last post on sneaking in obscure reference sketches for the backgrounds in recent panels. Sargent, Penobscot, the Bubbles, Pemetic and Cadillac Mountains (see here for a different perspective) are contoured out, but the watch is completely made up. Well, maybe it's a bit like my grandfather's Timex.




A brief editorial tussle over the aesthetics of cursive script imparting a more journal-like feeling, but that was jettisoned for the sake of clarity (my handwriting is bad enough to decipher as it is).
