  • Great job! Check tomorrow’s update for a chance to win the special prize! Bonjour comic fans! Last week a cool thing happened at ICECUBES. The website got a bunch of visitors from Belgium! Belgium came in third place for most visits by country. That title is usually reserved for the UK or Australia, as ICECUBES is an English speaking comic. Belgium beat them this week! You may know that Belgium is the birthplace of the European School of Comics. Started just before WWII, the school flourished in the post-war period with many international comic stars. ICECUBES the comic strip To celebrate this, I’ve decided to start a week-long contest to see who knows their Belgian comics!

    Striking A Pose!

    Ice cubes comic strip drawings I always sketch out difficult poses before committing them to paper. The thing you’re looking for is how to inject energy into the drawing. So imagine the characters are alive and moving around on the page. Sometimes it helps to close your eyes and picture it. Having said that, you can see that I erased plenty of times before getting it right. Don’t be afraid of using the eraser! Nobody is watching and sometimes it takes a lot of bad drawings to get a good one! 🙂 Ice cubes comic strip 224 Here’s the published comic. Note how the camera angle chopped off the legs, even though I drew them originally!

    Changes.

    testscreen-buttons Take a look at what the ICECUBES website used to look like! This snapshot was taken years ago and shows just how far we’ve come. This year we are going to make even more changes so hang in there while we do some renovating! 🙂

    Out With The Old…

    ICECUBES the comic strip - Peckinpaw the polar bear. I thought you might enjoy a very early sketch of Peckinpaw done several years ago when I was just coming up with the look for the denizens of ICECUBES. He sure looks different nowadays! That’s the theme this year: a new look and plenty of new things to look at! There is a lot more coming up in the next few weeks so keep on checking out your favorite cool comic! 😉 Leroy Brown
