Presenting my first ( of many to come ) editorial style cartoons

[DS1]

I'd thought I'd give a nod towards DU :D

[SOteric]

1. *Heh*

Yes, I'm sure the FReeps would reconsider the inconvenience if they had to choose between their SUV's and their bigotry related activities.

It's a good one, Martin, but I think the sketching needs a bit more polish.

[Heidi]

11. Worth a kick, dontcha think, SOteric? (Kick. nt)

[SOteric]

12. Absolutely!

I'm so glad this is getting a bit of attention. I think DS1 is an untapped resource of twisted liberal humour and I'd love to see him encouraged.

[GCP]

2. I like it!

It has the spareness required of a good cartoon - I love the teensy cross because they don't have enough gas for a big one!

[DS1]

10. It was a 15 minute job waiting for that many minutes to pass before

I could pick up my Indian takeout :P

[Heidi]

5. You're very, very good, DS1.

I hope you continue posting these. :thumbsup:

[sundog]

6. good un

:7

[NoSheep]

7. What's up in the window on the right? the blurry 1/2 moon shape.

btw, I like it. Do some more! :bounce:

[DS1]

17. that's the homeowner looking out

like I said, rush job ;-)

[johnnie]

8. I like it

And I also like the way it's drawn. Almost has that John Lennon feel to it.

[GOPisEvil]

9. Hahahaha!!!!

:thumbsup:

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

13. They could have poured booze on it

... good work.

[Fenris]

14. You really need to post it in GD

And then complain when people don't compliment your hard work. And then accuse them of being Freepers.

[DS1]

15. I did

it dropped like a rock there, too :D

[Fenris]

16. Now you need to post an angry editorial.

IN ALL CAPS. Tell them that they can't appreciate your work and that they are helping Bush murder poor black people in New Orleans. :D

[Heidi]

18. Kick. (nt)

[NMMNG]

19. Wow

Very powerful indeed.

[Heidi]

20. That's what I thought, too.

The simplicity of DS1's drawing style is intriguing. Too, I admire anyone who can letter, as that's one of my big deficiencies.

[DS1]

21. It's really hard when you're using a drawing tablet

it's kinda surreal. And the drawing was a 15 minute job, I know there's room from improvement :D :rofl:

Still, it's the concept, not the picture that's important

[Heidi]

22. Concept and self-discipline.

That's what I've found are important in developing a career as an artist. I can learn the technical stuff easily enough, but the self-discipline to do it and do it and do it, and the conceptual elements, come from me and in the context of my life experience.

You're on the right track, DS1. What drawing tablet are you using, and what are software do you use for post-work?

[DS1]

23. I'm using a Wacom Intuous tablet with Photoshop

I'm a hell of a lot better with actual pencils, it's strange to be drawing here and seeing it there, so to speak.

[Misunderestimator]

24. Excellent!!

:thumbsup:

[RagingInMiami]

25. I like it

But my caption would be: "Katrina finally eats into GWB's base."

[Rabrrrrrr]

26. LOL!

:rofl:

[ghostsofgiants]

27. Hahaha, that's awesome!

Keep them coming!
