Here's my latest toon. https://johndburns.wordpress.com/2014/09/24/of-midges-and-men/

Thanks to everyone for their encouragement, people seem to really like these things. I need to improve but hopefully with practise I'll get better.

Here's my latest effort. The MBA is a great organisation but I just couldn't resist this one.

Yep, stick with it. Remember that acute observation always beats technical prowess (!)

In reply to John Burns: Criticising the MBA - brave. Don't know about now, but they used to not take that too well.

Besides the crown would be worn by the all powerful H&S committee.

xkcd seems to do OK with good content over artistic ability.

I looked him/her up on the site, but no info. What's s/he doing?

Martin

Edit: just found it. That person can draw pretty well - my stick figures are nowhere near that good.

There's no criticism of the MBA intended, it's just a joke.

My latest Mountain cartoon. http://johndburns.wordpress.com/2014/11/01/the-ambition-of-a-lifetime/

I'm thinking of producing these things as limited edition signed prints as a sort of Christmas present idea, would people be interested?
