  1. The website was down all day yesterday because of a problem with the hosting company. I was on the road and unable to fix the problem until later last nite. Sorry for the delay and thanks for checking back in. Remember to click on the ads! Thanks!

  2. I notice the site for your Ice Cubes webcomic. Do you think you can do other comic book work in the future like maybe Sonic the Hedgehog for IDW?

    1. Hi! Sure, I could do work for other comic books if they asked me. Who knows, it could happen! 🙂 Thanks for reading ICECUBES.

  3. Good Morning Sir: I stumbled across your Leroy Brown/Jim Croce work and was impressed. Great Job. Can you do other animations? I wrote a book several years back that was taken from a record I really enjoyed listening to. I was wondering could you do similar work and what are your cost for a three minute session. Peace

    1. Oh wow, that’s really cool! Of course, I did not do the Jim Croce cartoon. That was done way back in 1973 by a man named John Wilson for the Sonny & Cher Show. To do a 3 min. animation like that today would probably cost thousands of dollars. If you would like to see a cartoon I did, go to this link: https://youtu.be/kv1S9MIhqzE?si=ybNZ9cyfQeaoVMab

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!
