Text in Editorial Illustration

Hey guys,

I've been posting tips and tricks it the comments sections, so check them out even if they aren't your sketches.

On the topic of writing or text in editorial illustration: generally don't do it. At my school, I was flat out told to never do it. However, I think it's okay if it's part of the solution. A lot of designers will use typographic illustration solutions and it can work well, but it really should be integral to the idea.
