Out of the closet cartoonist!

Post by gustrafo on Thu 15 Dec - 10:26

A big hello from a wilder island on the Equatorial Pacific!
(Isn’t the Web something else?). I am oceanographer working far away from
civilization for 16 years now and still going. I have been drawing since
highschool, mostly secretly.


I am taking a deep breath What a Face and starting my own cartoon
project this 2012. I not quite sure how I am going to do it, but I fell very
inspired after reading some mini bios posted here: finally finding people
wearing my shoes (sorry for the bad translation).


Can’t wait to hear from you.

Hi Gustrafo

I am very pleased we inspired you to folllow your passion Smile

Best way to get started - dive in feet first, post some pics here and we'll show you the way.

What does 'oceanography' involve? Sounds fascinating.

Leah

Hi Leah!


Loved your
site! It looks very professional and the comics are very funny. Thanks for the
welcome!


Oceanography
is very wide. Pretty much studies everything related with oceans. I am
specialized in crustaceous and mangroves (nothing fancy there).


I’ll do
what you suggest. I realize that what I need more than anything is feedback.


Should I
post my cartoons directly on the forum site?

Yes post your pics anywhere you like, we have the daily gag cartoon section, where you can post any gags you have, as many as like. All I ask is that you create a new post for each pic, that way you get maximum exposure for your gag.

There is the 'your art' section and 'chit chat', caricatures and so on.

Just browse around and enjoy! Smile
