    African Hunting Comic Book

    Interesting, I have a friend who's an independent film maker here in Boise, but his dream was to be a cartoonist when he was a boy as well. I get that quite a bit actually. I think the hard thing for most people with a creative bend is that they are often good at several things that they're...

    African Hunting Comic Book

    @Frederik You pretty much nailed actually. I'm not sure what the proper word would be, but he definitely isn't a hunter that is guiding anyone. If anything he might have apprenticed with a PH at some point so that he knows what he's doing, but again, like you called it, he's not what a would...

    African Hunting Comic Book

    Hey thanks for reading it Bill! 1. I must have been looking at all the wrong reference, since I never came across a PH wearing a baseball cap in 1923 when the story is set. Didn't come across too many wearing shorts, short pants, or short shorts in that era either, but hey, like I said, I'm no...

    Hello From An Artist In Idaho

    Sometimes I'll use a tablet, I mostly use it to "paint" with. For instance, in that first image I posted from the comic, that's an ink drawing I scanned into my computer, and then I used a tablet to add the grays and the tone to the image in Photoshop. Anymore, I'm pretty interested in doing as...

    Hello From An Artist In Idaho

    I have done a few sketches Thunder Head, the only recent one that I did that I spent a deal of time on was a for a t-shirt for my friends. The original image I drew it off of was an old cover of an Adventure Magazine.

    Hello From An Artist In Idaho

    Thanks Jerome! Hopefully I did some degree of justice to subject matter. I've always had a fascination with African hunting stories and I had never seen a comic version so I decided I would be the one to do it. Wish I would have found Africa Hunting while I was doing my research, would have...

    Base Camp- What's It Look Like When PH's aren't guiding

    These are great Louis! I wouldn't have ever imagined a pic like that first one; just jeans and shorts, taking a stroll like that.

    Base Camp- What's It Look Like When PH's aren't guiding

    I was curious if any PHs had pics or could describe the set up they employ for their base camp when they're not out with clients, but are hunting recreationally. I'm going to take a wild guess that it doesn't involve a safari train and that your set up would be much more simple. I'm curious to...

    Hello From An Artist In Idaho

    That's the plan Bob! I started saving last year. Gonna be a bit though, not exactly rolling in the dough, but it will happen. And thanks for the welcome. I somehow lost several hours wandering through the forums today. So much information to absorb. Very glad to have found this site.

    Death In The Afternoon

    I recently self-published a comic book based on an account by Peter Hathaway. My version of the story takes place in the early 1920s, and my main character (Francis Anderson Archer) is more of an analog of a younger Hemingway. I spent a great deal of time researching the story, which included...

    African Hunting Comic Book

    Oh, and as a note, I'm actually quite happy that the first critique wasn't about a poor portrayal of tactics, nor did it mention that the main character was holding his cartridges in the wrong hand on the first page.

    African Hunting Comic Book

    Hey, I really appreciate you taking the time to read the story and offer your feedback Bushbuck. I should have probably emphasized that this guy is more a Hemingway, than a Capstick and to some degree, he is to be disliked. He's rough around the edges and actually in terms of how the...

    Hello From An Artist In Idaho

    Hello everyone My name is Christopher Hunt. I've had a long standing love of Africa, and particularly African hunting stories since I was little, though I have yet to have the chance to fulfill my dream of hunting there. I recently self published a comic book about hunting in Africa as a nod...
