Sokol


Three great examples of the great Erich Sokol best known in the U.S. for his Playboy cartoons, which have some of the best girl drawings ever seen by millions of perverts. In Europe he is mostly known for his political cartoons. His use of color is awesome, dude.

Those drawings are awesome. That elephant he drew looks like something Jack Davis would have done. Do you have any more of these?

Kirk Nachman said...

Yeah, Sokol is sumthin'...

got a bootleg of the Bakshi Mighty Mouse, and find it thrilling. Tho' i hear lots of complaints and criticism from you creators in retrospection, i think the show had something that's been lost in later developments. I seen 'em then, and now seein' 'em again 20 years later... sheeit!!!

Perhaps as an artist approaches attaining his ideal, he is blind to virtues of what resulted from outside his own intentions.
