The creative boy inside though in comatose stage at present, now and then wakes up and asks me why don't u have a cartoon strip on your own, why don't you write a book, why don't you start an ad agency. Since, cartoons are closer to my heart, I have been thinking about this cartoon strip thing for a while...hmm. may be 3 weeks. What if i actually come out with a good cartoon strip which would reflect the hyprocrisies present in our society. What if i manage to sell it to some good newspaper like "The Hindu". O.k dreams apart. There is no way that i am going to make it. Even if i manage to bring dry wit embellished with satire, i would still be missing the fundamental part of cartoon drawing. The "Drawing" itself.
Not everyone gets the chance to fly an aeroplane. isn't it? But, almost everyone would have played with the toy aeroplane, fought with another fighter plane in mid-air and always managed to hit the other one with our brute force. In the same way, i managed to play with my cartoon dream. I took one of the Calvin strip and modified to put down my message. How is it? Not bad huh?!?! What ?!?! Bad...


Note: The K in Kalvin was intentional and the word Kavin means beauty (thats why cavin care) in tamil.

    Good da Ram :). I was also thinking in the same lines (cartoonist). Got so enthusiastic one day, installed flash and downloaded couple of tutorials and... got busy with something else :D.

    I can't draw either :) The idea behind using flash was not cartoon strip but animation. Tom getting hit by a hammer, shattering to pieces, gathering them back and continue to chase Jerry. That's something any other motion picture can never deliver as a funny thing.
