I’m fascinated by how Foxo achieved the shading and pattern effects in these strips. How tedious is it to draw white dots with a black ink pen? And the shaded areas are actually very fine cross-hatchings. Is that really done by hand, or is he using printed screening patterns that are cut and pasted in? I know of such aids that were used before computers were capable of filling shapes with patterns.
