I don't draw comics myself, but I think a lot of artists letter the words themselves. Either that, or they choose a font which is closer to classic comic book text. Arial doesn't look back, but I feel that it's too angular and sterile. Still, in this one, no one's paying attention to the font. Again, great job!
Sorry for the long silence. No computer access :P

Hand lettering really isn't an option for me. I'm dyslexic, so it would be messy and likely take forever to get anything done.

Her underwear was intentional. I looked up the rough time/era that 'Alice in Wonderland' was set and used what would have been likely for a young girl back then. That said, I actually reduced the number of layers cause it would have been a royal pain in the ass to detail/draw.
