catb 74: Breakaway

Posted on January 29, 2013 by Bob Glasscock

Now we know Spencer's last name! It was fun doing an action strip again. It's been awhile. I get a bit jealous of the folks who draw on the computer when I'm working on the faces of the smaller figures. Perhaps smaller pen sizes are the answer... or maybe a Cintiq!

And you managed to get in the Ranger’s red, white, and blue. Dash cunning of you.

I love that you manage to get Joey’s curl and Casey’s… whatever sticking out from under the helmet.

I like your faces, they convey plenty of emotion without being finely detailed. Sometimes too much detail, in the face, and you lose the effect of emotion.
I love Joey’s face in frames 4, 5, and 6 going from a mean, gritting, determined look, to insecurity about making the shot, then to joy in making a goal. You did quite well in capturing the moment!

  Thanks Ardi – It was a conscious decision to go with a simple drawing style when I first launched the comic. I’m glad the emotions come through.
