  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

I havent cartooned for a few years, but used to draw single panels, published in weekly local newspapers for a few years....Its really difficult for me to pump out cartoons and be funny. . I lost my sense of humor after I got married.
My favorite cartoon panels were....


lightning storm at the steel wool ranch,

Kids playing out in the brainstorm, wearing their brainboots, brainjackets, and braincoats.

a falling skydiver who had accidentally wore his anvil instead of his parachute

a spacewalking astronaugt who locks his keys inside his vehicle.

playing volley ball with a bowling ball

these ones I thought were funny,
the rest of my stuff was craap, frustrated because I cant set up and deliever effectively. I would love to do political satire ( like Tom Tomarrow) but I lack the vocabulary and skill.
What kind of cartoons do you do, and what style?

What do I do?

I like to do weird little comic stories that last a few pages. I'm not much for single or 3 panel strips, nor do I have the patience to drag out a long epic!

My style... well, not exatly like action comics (xmen, etc.), a little more cartoony than that. Kind of like Jeff Smith (Bone) with more shading. Not sure how to describe.

If I had more posts I could show you some... maybe later!

Oh there is a large community of christian artists - cartoon, comic book, or otherwise. Many famous comic book illustrators are believers...especially comic strip artists. I'm an illustrator. I have a studio with a friend in Jersey called Blacklist Studios and we're working on our first graphic novel, but we also have a few web comics on there as well. A good site to go to is megazeenonline.com, there are many many christian illustrators and writers there...seeing as how it's a christian 'zine. Not a bad group.

Da!

Thanks for the info scarebear! I do a little drawing myself, all single panel stuff. I started out doing cartoons about where I work, then branched out to other stuff. Some of my favorites are a series I did on people who didn't make it into the Bible, like the crossing guard at the red sea.

I've been to the megazeen website already. I especially liked finding todd webb's site (toddbot).

I'll have to check out yours next?

Anyone else?
