Posted on February 14, 2007February 14, 2007 by David

Following a nice meetup with some comics people, I went back to using brush and ink a bit today, this being the result:

The Precinct - b&w ink drawing

I drew the characters with a Pilot V Signpen (as recommended by M. Vandenhoven), scanned and printed the line art, then inked the shading over the top of the printout.

New version of the Ackersley test includes profile run.

David Blumenstein

I’m a service designer, cartoonist and co-founder of Squishface Studio. I’ve done comics for The Guardian, Crikey and Australian MAD. Currently also deputy president of the Australian Cartoonists Association.

I usually write about things that shit me off, from bad bosses (The Bret Braddock Adventures) to pick-up artists (#takedown) to white supremacist trolls (The Internet’s Most Trolled Cartoonist) to predatory cults (Why Los Angeles is Scientology’s perfect city) and nasty tech bros (Octane Render: Cartoonists talk about A.I. art).

I’m working on graphic novels called Sciensatics (about cultists) and Free Money, Please (about wealth and passive income).

I regularly collaborate with my wife, Sarah Howell.
