  1. I love a good lesson in grammar. 🙂 Grammar loved a good lesson too but Grampar didn’t care much fer it.

  2. I know I left a comment here. The internet has not been kind to me lately.

    1. Yeah, I saw the comment. I think it got attached to the blog post instead. I’ll go fix that!

      1. Ok, there we go… sorry ’bout that. I’m still trying to figure all this mumbo jumbo…

  3. Reckon I need a lesson in computers! 🙂

  4. I have been winding up in so many spam foldrs lately that I feel like a sandwich.

    1. I think I used to eat spam as a kid… We used to take it on camping trips too.

Inazuma 11!

Leo did this great drawing of his new favorite cartoon Inazuma 11. It’s not out in the US yet, but it looks pretty cool. I always thought a cartoon about a soccer team would be a great idea!©ICECUBES

Blobs.

Eggman is the perfect character to show off the ‘blobs’ drawing technique. I find that the best way to give the characters more of a real feeling is to think of them as being made of blobs. By drawing big round blobs I can work out their positions and get a sense of their place in space. It also helps to give them some weight so they don’t look like they are two dimensional or floating in the panel. Here’s a great example of drawing blobs. Drawing blobs.

King of the Hill.

My favorite cartoon is by far King of the Hill. I just love the understated tone and the rhythm of the stories. It’s not full of slap dash one liners, sex jokes or poop humor. It’s hard to write like that and I think Mike Judge of Beavis and Butthead fame created a good cartoon. Dauterive.
One of Bill Dauterive’s relatives.

Everybody knows Hank Hill’s self loathing neighbor Bill Dauterive. The inside joke is that one of the original writers and executive producer’s name is Jim Dauterive. Here’s picture proof that there’s another Dauterive out there too! 🙂

Crime Scene!

Here is where I spilled my ink bottle last week… the entire bottle! Note the Ralph Steadman drawing that somehow crept in 🙂 ©ICECUBES For those inquiring minds, that’s ‘Merton Of The Movement’ peaking out from the comics box. Know your classics!
