I am always impressed by cartoonists who take on drawings of huge crowd scenes. Sometime over the years my copy of Building a Rainbow went missing. One of these days I’ll buy a replacement print.
One of the most impressive ones I ever saw was because of the creation process. When I was in grade school there were three brothers who lived a couple doors up the street. All three of them were can-draw-anything naturals (I was so jealous). Their mother had a 4×6-foot piece of paper. When the boys were stuck inside and started fighting, she would take it out and unroll it on the hard floor. The boys would all work on it simultaneously, in complete silence. As I recall it was all ink, no pencils, no erasing. I don’t remember what the overall theme was, just that it involved hundreds of well-drawn little people doing things on a massive project. There must have been some sort of telepathy involved. One of them would draw part of a section and then move on. Another would pick up and do some more on the unfinished section.Report
