These comic strips are simple, have just a few facts, and hopefully a little chuckle. They take an unbelievably long time to make. The topic is assigned to me, in this case: Arctic. Okay, with a subject that broad, what do I include? First, I read everything I could find about scientists in the arctic. No ideas. Then someone donated to me about 100 back issues of National Geographic! Hallay-loo-yah! What a goldmine! This comic strip is inspired by a true scientific expedition. Then from start to finish it took about 8 hours to complete. This will appear in an upcoming issue of
Boy's Quest magazine.
Wow! 3 finished pages in 8 hours actually seems unbelievably fast. One page a day would seem right to me.
ReplyDeleteThese are great. I like the drama of the ice breaking panel.
