Carol Voges was a great artist (admittedly better for human figures than funny animals. But NO ONE implied that we should have been satisfied with ONLY their work!
When talking about the Toonder Studio's, I mean their work for the Dutch Donald Duck Weekly. I'm not too familiar with their other work, so I'm not giving a judgement about that. But the Disney-stories from the Studio, I never liked. Their Hiawatha was nothing like the character from the Disney cartoon. Hiawatha is supposed to be a little infant, not the pre-teen he looked like in the stories put out by the Studio. Their Big Bad Wolf wasn't too bad, but the stories were kinda lame and predictable.

I like them too. But aren't those often predictable then, given your comment on the stories by Toonder Studio?
Egg wrote:[about Carol Voges]That's a matter of taste.
Robb_K wrote:I agree with you that Carol Voges' Duck and other Disney drawings were pretty weak. And, also, I agree that the Toonder Studios' Disney drawings for DD Weekblad were nothing to brag about.

I like the crows very much. Maybe it's as what some people say about Ramon Bernado and Al Hubbard, that these artist are best in non-duck stories?
What I like about Voges art is that it's professionally done, with the blackening, etc.
I'm curious for Robb_K's comment, if Egg so free may be to lure him into this subject.
