Well, cool ICECUBES fans, here it is! ICECUBES the comic strip #300!! Wow, what an amazing adventure. From it's humble beginnings years ago as an idea to do a strip about an Eskimo, a Penguin, a Polar Bear and a Walrus to several books, conventions and tons of new friends! Thank you all so much for being readers and fans of ICECUBES. It's so much fun to make the strip for you guys to read. Here's to 300 more! :D Leroy Brown

Comic strip blocking.

Posted on February 17, 2009 by Leroy Brown
ICECUBES ‘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.
