New #DollarBinDiscovery episode! What does a pulp hero from the 1930s have in common with a bunch of meddling teenagers? They're our choices for this episode's theme of "classic characters!"
From the mid-2000s to the mid-2010s, I was a daily and weekly news cartoonist for the Dutch NU.nl site and the Dutch NRC(.next) newspaper.
I chose 3D graphics as the medium, because it was novel for news cartoons, and it allowed me to build a library of reusable characters, props and decors.
Back then I worked with 3ds Max, and rendered with V-Ray.

"Comics have no walls nor borders, and the youngness of our medium represents an opportunity to reject the boundaries that were assigned to us.

Through comics, we can shape the narratives told about ourselves and our world—and in that way, we hope to provoke change.
Recent events are extreme, brutal, and shocking, but they are part of a continuum–the long ideological project of settler colonialism that requires the systematic denial and destruction of indigenous peoples. Now is the time to build something new and different."
