I’ve always loved Jaguar E-types, and so I thought I’d put together a collection of the ones that have appeared illustrations and cartoons over the years.
This cartoon, along with the following one, were drawn using the Sketches app on the iPad Pro. I was going for a bit of a Giles effect with these.
For those of you who don’t. Know, Giles was a legendary British cartoonist whose cartoons appeared in The Daily Express newspaper for over fifty years.
This one is not actually a Jaguar E-type, but it’s forerunner, the XKSS. Jaguar had run a successful sports car racing program, whose victories included several at the Le Man 24 hour race. They decided to produce a small run of road cars based on the D-type racing car. Movie star and car racerSteve McQueen was a high profile owner.
I thought I’d produce three versions of this one using different angles.
Zooming out and replacing the background.
And a close-up one.
What’s next
I produce a Cartoon Newsletter, which contains a whole host of characters and some occasional cartooning tips. Add your name and mail to the orange box below and I’ll wing a copy your way.
