I went through all of last year’s Hubris cartoons this morning. I had to pick out twelve of them to submit to the NCS to try and get a nomination for the Silver Reuben for the Short Form Online Comic division.
I’ve been rushing the art for the past year in a way that bothers me. I won’t say that I’ve chosen quantity over quality, in an effort to make sure you guys get four cartoons a week, but I have cut some corners that, when looking through the whole pile all at once, make me think I can do better. And so, I will.
Just thought I’d let you know.
I’ve gotten too accustomed to my little inking routine- Place the pencils on the light table, affix some low-tack tape, drop down a fresh sheet of heavy drawing paper, take out my lettering pens…
Hold on. This one has no word balloons.
It’s been a while since I did a Hubris cartoon with no word balloons. The last one I can think of was the one with the twisty borders filled with Hubris’ nervous dreamscape. I don’t think that one had a word balloon…
Of course, the concept and layout of that one was different enough that I wasn’t surprised when there wasn’t any lettering to do.
This one took me by surprise, somehow.
It’s been a long day.
