Judging guidelines

  1. all skill levels are welcome.
  2. we will not be judging technical expertise but instead cartoon originality.
  3. this is not a fine art competition this is a cartoon competition - that is not to say that a cartoon cannot demonstrate high levels of technical skill, but what is most important is its stylistic originality and the strength of its message.
  4. cartoons can inspire all sorts of emotions from outrage to laughter, but do so because they have a narrative. The manner of presentation is simplified to where someone with zero background in either fine art or your subject matter can gather and take away your message: how will you do this with your cartoon?

For this first week, our judges will be @corpsvalues and @linnyplant

We look forward to seeing your best cartoons!
Good luck!

Damn that Alexa making purchasing too easy.

I've never made a comic strip in my life, but I'm really tempted to try my hand at one on post it notes now.

Did my first comic on steemit and I’ve been interested since. Hope you give it a go and have fun with it. :)

You should do it! I made my first cartoons when I was 10 years old I think: my sister still insists that they were awesome. They were mostly animals talking. Some of the most popular web comics such as Xkcd are just stick figures. So basically anyone with an idea in their head can make a cartoon. Everyone on Steemit is here to share their ideas anyways: so it's just slightly changing the method of presentation!
And for this contest, humor and a punchline isn't even required because the world of cartooning is so much more than comic strips! Political cartoons are one of the oldest forms of artwork!

Thanks for your entry! Looks like an embarrassing situation =p

I can attest to this xD Personal experience haha
