Tools of a cartoonist

When the ink stops, they go straight to the trash. I have found that some customers do not like the Sharpie cartoons as it looks like they were photocopied. Which reminds me, I had a college art instructor who made dozens of prefab paintings of a popular sidewalk scene. He had them stashed into a bag. He said it helped pay his way through college. Hmmmm…maybe I should try this with some photo copies adding India Ink or whiteout for fine details.

As long as they see the ink drying, it looks like an original. I really like Micron 08 pens, but I find that they dry out quickly on me. I did read though, that if you press down hard, it tends to make them dry out quickly — and I am a tense cartoonist, so that is a source of the problem… pens such as Micron brand can be ideal cartoonist drawing tools.

You bring up a great question with regard to how some of the great comic strip cartoonists might have reacted to digital creation had they been around to see it! I picture Schulz bristling against digital art. A true artist like Al Capp might have as well. Scott Adams is someone who I feel has a different view of cartooning…as he puts it, he is not a traditionally trained artist — and his real strength is as a writer.

I keep in touch with a few friends who are newspaper political cartoonists, as well as some syndicated comic strip cartoonists…and most of them are still using traditional tools Pen, ink, paper, etc.

I was a little surprised because a good percentage of professional illustrators, commercial cartoonists and animators that I know or talk with draw digitally. The fact that many print cartoonists are still drawing on paper is interesting…and I completely understand the thinking.

For one, if it works well, why change it? There are other reasons, too…such as the secondary market for original art. That mainly applies to well-known creators with a great following, but for them, it is reason enough. Having been a political cartoonist, I can offer another reason unique to that profession. When you create a cartoon, it helps to physically carry it around the newsroom and show it to others, just to get an idea of what the reaction is.

I still do so much work with actual ink on paper that I have yet to pony up for a Cintiq a new Intuos , or that Inkling thing. I have some sort of bundle of CS5 stuff , most of which I rarely use. Pen, paper, and a computer with a scanner is pretty much the minimum though.
