It is wonderful how the old time comic book artists
and animators were able to draw so realistically
as to make their productions so convincing.They were
easily able to pull the reader and viewer into the story.I would safely call this magic,something which
is still readily available,but which sadly is ever
bother with nowadays.There are a few artists now who
do use the more realistic approach but again sadly are few and far between.The old comics and cartoon films of the past had memorable stars in their productions,many of them going back 60 to 70 years
or more.We are apt never to forget them....ever.
I myself love all of these characters,but I do have
personal favorites.One of my all time favorites is
ofcourse, you guessed it "Speedy Gonzales"...."The Fastest Leetle Mouse In All Of Mexico"Speedy is the
epitome of old Mexico.Everything he says and does just
drips with that Mexican flavor.His habit is naturally
Mexico but naturally old Mexico.Speedy's adventures
fantastic and ofcourse funny.I really love this little guy,and hope that the newer generation of comic
artists would take a leaf out of these old artists books,or sketch pads and learn.Maybe they should take the whole book.To those present day artists out there
may I say "Hey guys stop using computers and such like
stuff for your productions,get real, lose the crutch,
you are much better than a machine....or are you?maybe
the machine is the real artist huh???
