Mother-In-Law Cartoon Gag for Halloween - witch cartoon

Halloween is nearly here so I've been busy designing a fun gag cartoon and Halloween card. I've based this gag around men's stereotypical fear and loathing of their mother-in-laws. Some men may relate to this ' mother-in-law is a witch' gag though I know many men in fact get along quite nicely with their mother-in-laws. Good thing it is too!

I shall be one at some point though I don't expect to be investing in a wooden broom stick anytime soon.

This Halloween witch card was drawn by hand using a fibre tip pen then shaded and edited digitally. The speech bubble was also added digitally. I find using the two medias together very fulfilling and gives me the best results. Any mistakes I make on the original hand drawing can be edited out digitally. This saves me having to redraw and erase manually.

I hope you enjoy my Halloween greeting card and mums, please don't be offended! ;)

Happy Halloween.
