Characterization Part 3

More personality- based imagery which I am veering towards moreso these days........this sort of stuff is a lot easier than having to come up with strong single gag images every single attempt....I will try and do a bit of both: gag-orientated as well as this personality based cartoon material.



The two characters seen here of course are the two main suporting players from my B BOOMER concept......the ever-present statue of Liberty aka Libby and evergreen King Kong variant KOONG KING.



This image is only slightly rude....I have deliberately avoided real lechery and K K looks fairly bemused and innocent when confronted with the Statue's hithero unseen underapparrel.


I still believe that personality based imagery like this can be just as effective and amusing than gag and idea orientated material.



See my usual ploy of adding in miniscule characters to assist the sense of scale I desired.

    I am particularly frightened by the notion of them conceiving offspring...

THIS ITEM was a one-off, fairly elaborate Christmas-themed item in which the criteria was to recreate the ambience of the late 1960s/ very early 70s humour comics put out by IPC/ Fleetway---you know the sort of thing if you are into this stuff: Whizzer and Chips, Cor!!, and many more. ---in other words. 'no outright copying of established characters ' but I had to put over the basic ambience for them. Great fun, though clearly, this one took a fair bit of time to put together.

TODAY'S ITEM is the fourth---and last, to date--------customized tailored caricature job I got offered by a kindly gent who liked my stuff enough to ask me back a few times. Great fun as usual and again I liked to do it in  fairly elaborate technique-style. Also contained below: not-quite-finished artwork [complete with image underneath burning through] , the original rough sketch required to 'sell' the proposal, and other miscellanea. Enjoi! RAB L.

HERE I HAVE ADDED the second sheet of artwork for my 'ice-cream' mini-strip; that is almost all of the character stuff/props complete on this one:  I just have to drop in the simple background plates. Although as revealed last posting I am not too sure of the copyright aspects as regards THE FLY, my adaptation of a King Kong-like character as seen here should be sound------he is just used as a supporting character, similar to adding in a stock vampire, or a Frankensteins' Monster-type 'also-ran' character------more on this later. New strip stuff is well under way for further inclusion on here. is it just me, or is that a wee bit of subversion I subconciously added to the double-cornet ice-cream? ENJOI! Rab-erto
