Tips for Lazy Buggers

by Reinder Dijkhuis


Part of the Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan website

Tips for Lazy Buggers is an ironic look at the craft of cartooning. Since this great craft doesn't pay beans, and practitioners have to have a real job anyway, it is necessary to spend cartooning time efficiently. Tips for Lazy Buggers gives you insight into the art of cutting corners, thus getting the most out your precious time. The strip is updated sporadically, whenever I can be bothered.

Any individual Tip may be there to share a labour-saving trick with my fellow amateur cartoonist, or it may be there to poke fun at sloppy practices I've seen others apply. Sometimes, I'm implicitly criticising the industry (in Europe - I don't have the knowledge needed to add anything meaningful to discussions of the industry in the US or elsewhere). After all, if there is one reason to cut corners while cartooning, it's the small amounts of money that can be made for one page:-)
And sometimes, I'm just making fun of myself. You tell which option applies where.

Tips for Lazy Buggers is brought to you by the guy who does Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan.
