Classic ICECUBES #0239

Dear Friends, Yes, I am snowed under! For the next 3 weeks I am working on a very big project and unfortunately I won't have time to draw new ICECUBES strips. I am so sorry and I hope you will forgive me for not planning better in advance. In the meantime I will try to post some good classic strips that will make you smile. Thanks for being loyal readers! More new strips coming real soon. :) Leroy Brown

How To Draw Comics. Tracing & Transfers, part 1.

As mentioned last week, here’s a cool trick to use when trying to copy or transfer a drawing. Often you will practice a drawing a few times to get it right, a lot like a musician practices a riff to get the ‘swing’ of it. When you get that drawing right, you can keep practicing it to memorize it, or if you are on a tight deadline (like I often am) you can transfer it. ©Leroy Brown Here is a practice sheet of Freeze walking. After several attempts I got a drawing I liked (circled in blue). In part 2 I will show you how to trace it then transfer it to your comic. Tune in tomorrow for part 2.

Inuit Mask.

I recently went to a really neat exhibit of Inuit artifacts from 100 years ago. I made some sketches of the masks. Here’s one. Hopefully I can use it in the comic strip. 🙂 ©Leroy Brown
