ICECUBES the comic strip #355

Posted on May 16, 2024 by Leroy Brown

Hello folks, thank you so much for your patience! Here is a brand new strip for you today. We are all recovering from Freeze's crazy movie adventure. Hopefully we can get back into more of a groove now. Also, I wanted to thank everybody who showed up on Free comic Book Day at Bedrock City. (see the photos here) I got so many requests, it was really heart warming and a blast. I hope to see you all again soon! Ok, finally, the great news is that the third ICECUBES book is now in the works and I will be announcing the Kickstarter real soon. We definitely need to do that because all the previous books are completely SOLD OUT! So stay tuned :)

Drawing tools.

Here is a picture of my collection of metal drawing nibs. I have gathered these throughout the years and although I only use a very specific type for drawing and lettering, I like keeping them. The ones I use on the strip are in the little plastic box in the foreground. The techniques I use to draw are very old fashioned to some. Although I do use a tablet for doing commercial work, the plastic ‘sliding’ feeling of drawing on a tablet won’t work for the strip. I like the feel of drawing on paper and inking with nibs.

Comic strip blocking.

Posted on February 17, 2009 by Leroy Brown

‘Blocking’ just means blocking out how the action gets laid out on the page. In this case I was trying to work out the way Peckinpaw tripped and fell by making the gesture and movement read well in the limited amount of space of the 13″ x 4″ strip. Some artists call this the storyboarding stage. It’s real important to do this before you start drawing the real strip or else you will be erasing and restarting a lot. I always try to avoid a lot of erasing because it can introduce smudges that are hard to get rid of. It can also mess up the surface of the paper making it harder to ink. You can see click on the final published strip here.
