Thats a real work of art.
Wish i could draw like that, i drew a cat for the kids as part of a school project and.....well...... Had the project been about Tasmanian Devil/Hyena crossbreeds i might have got away with it.........
Yes it is a talent alright this drawing ...The story behind this cartoon is Jim was going through his head shooting stage. If you knew Jim he would jump out of the page at you. The sako with a kahles scope, the rolled up shorts, the sun visor, the Boar war cartiridge pouches. Even the knife I recognise as an old table knife that Jim bound wooden handles on.

I have dragged these old cartoons around the country for forty years now and never really had a chance to show them to many people.
I am glad I could show them to youse all.
Those were the days my friends those were the days.
Love your work, they tell an awesome story
Thanks for sharing Scribe:thumbsup:
Your mates a talented bugger. Thank you for sharing Scribe.
Is that the Chris who was shooting in the Awatere Valley in 1966 with Eddie Eaton? He was a dab hand at his cartoons, especially his 'Long Tom & Lee Enfield' series that I remember when I was there.
Thanks for sharing Scribe , great sketches I dabble in a bit drawing myself never tried using colour but , so might give it a whirl .
I see this thread has been brought back 5 years later.
The style is like Stag Spooner's collection. He was from an earlier generation so it must be a traditional format in NZ.
I remember finding a goat like this one day. I despatched it with my knife while it was hanging by one leg. Took the tail too. I thought it was a stroke of rare luck but apparently it's all been seen before ....
Good to have it preserved. Ian Lyall was another; he illusrtated the NZFS camp cookery book :)
Great to see these. Thanks Scribe. Good work.
Hey @Scribe will you please let us all know when your book is published!
Cheers S :)
