Anybody's a cartoonist, a amateur one?

Sillygeezer10 · Jun 27, 2005

I'm that sort of person who loves satire and cartoons.
I've started in 1997 and drew 2000 cartoons since. But they're not you'd call christ centered or pro religion. Far from it. It's pretty anti christian or secular.
But I ask you a question are you a cartoonist?

nothing2123123 · Jul 1, 2005

Wow! 2000 is alot! Would you care to share any? Why do you do anti christain type stuff?

I do some occationally. I go thru stages. Im more into animation tho. I just get a bit lazy... I should do some more tho. What do you use to ink it? I find just black felt tips end up being easiest. Ink and nib and all that just makes it harder and it doesnt look much better - although you do feel more professional.

I do spot illustrations in a cartoon format for clients' websites or advertisements etc. I'll draw in ink, scan and color on the computer.

nothing2123123 · Jul 1, 2005

Oh nice! I just dont have motivation to do anything... where can I get some?

Sillygeezer10 · Jul 1, 2005

I use all sort of pens but my trademark depiction is Black and white. The Reason I do anti christian cartoons because it's fun to do something that's different.
Indian Ink is the most fun of mediums. It's gorgeous.

I do little cartoons about life in general. I have two different series in the works. One's about life as a teller at a back (doesn't sound exciting, I know) called "the F district" and the other is called "Lady J and the Toe Heads which is about my adventures being a sahm to two little boys.

Here is crude version of the F District.

I am no cartoonist or anything like that. I was wondering if one of you can draw a cartoon of me. I was wanting to use it as my avatar here. My picture is in my profile. Please PM me for information.

Lady Luck... thats so cool. Very origional. I would love to see a bigger version where I can read it.

In my animation course were doing some comic book art soon. Should be fun.

I did an animated cartoon once:

Drew it up on 4 sheets of parchment. Can you sense the strong minimalism?

I like drawing superhero-type figures, though I don't limit myself to the super-muscular. I like to bring variance to their skeletons and musculature so it portrays some of their personal qualities. I did "The Trumpeter" seen at the gallery of my hobby homepage, Soldiers of the Light for my oldest daughter. It is sort of "Star Wars" meets "Pilgrim's Progress."

The standard issue armor exceeds that of Ephesians, alone.

The final weapon of Ephesians 6 is "prayer," so the helmet of Salvation includes an earpiece-antenna.
We walk by faith and not by sight [2 Corinthians 5:7], so the helmet includes a visor completely covering the eyes.
The shield of Faith is invisible because "...faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see [Hebrews 11:1]."
The earpiece, right thumbnail and right toebox are painted red because we are "...a royal priesthood, ... [1 Peter 2:9]"
There are so many descriptions about the sword of the Spirit [a lamp, Psalms 119:105; living, active, sharper..., Hebrews 4:12] that makes a laser sword quite fitting, though it does not sever its opponent as "we wrestle not against flesh and blood..."

There are many more articles found throughout Scripture, but you get the idea.

Ephesians 6 is a great passage about the armor of God!

You are good at illustrating!

Sabertooth · May 14, 2018

FYI, Ephesians 6 corresponds to Jesus' armor given in Isaiah 59:17.

He wears

the breastplate of Righteousness,
the helmet of Salvation,
Vengeance as clothing, and
the cloak of Zeal.

We certainly may not wear Vengeance [per Romans 12:19], but God has shown me that we ARE allowed/invited to wear the cloak of Zeal! [see Matthew 22:37-38]

The necklace (above) is from Proverbs 1:8-9,

"My son, hear the instruction of your father,
And do not forsake the law of your mother;
For they will be a graceful ornament on your head,
And chains about your neck."

and Proverbs 3:21-22,

"Keep sound wisdom and discretion;
So they will be life to your soul
And grace to your neck."

Great verses there; and I'll have to study Isaiah 59.17; thanks!

There is a thread here someplace started by a woman who is a Christian Samurai warrior; a bit like your warrior figures that you have drawn.

I have more from this series at Soldiers of the Light.

(My previous host was recently shut down.)

@Grumman Tomcat FYI, did you see this cartoon theme thread?

St. Helens · Jun 9, 2018

I was a aviation cartoonist in the Navy. I did airplanes. For fun I still do personified airplane characters. Here a Crop Duster dreams about a pretty Navy girl.
