Classic Animated Strip! #0013

Here's a very early strip that was originally published in black and white. It was featured in the ICECUBES book 'Noise Is News' and was then colored. I remember struggling with the pencil and the inking on this strip, as it required a lot of detail and I was still pretty green at the time. I thought you might enjoy seeing the process animated! :)

  1. This is really fun.

    1. Thanks JP! That strip gave me some problems trying to fit everything in such a small space. Now I know why the old timers used to draw so big! 🙂

Pagination.

book-paginationIn other words, trying to figure out a/ which strips to feature in the book, b/ which order to put the strips in, c/ which order to put the pages in. There are 175 strips featured, spanning almost 4 years of ICECUBES. So the challenge is to put them in a sequence that makes sense. A lot of cutting and pasting old school style with scissors and glue! 😉

Scanning & Coloring for the Book!

hand These days I have been busy re-scanning all the strips for the book. They were originally scanned at 150dpi for the web but need to be re-scanned at 600dpi for the book… Oh well, I won’t make that mistake again! I then need to clean and color all 170 strips. Quite a job! As you can see from the brace on my right hand, it’s taking a toll. All this computer work is giving me a bad case of carpal tunnel syndrome… But, have no fear, you won’t be disappointed because ICECUBES the Book is coming out real soon and will be a huge success! 🙂 Leroy Brown
