As we all love CF and his wonderful Cellar of Dredd , we have seen a page of artwork on ebay , which with your kind donation we could buy and give to John ... this will make up for not winning a KTT ( not thats he bothered ) ;)
if you wish to donate send payment as a personal gift to fatboydale@ntlworld.com ...a pound or 2 should be fine ... if the artwork is sold all money will be refunded or we find something so bad only John would have in his cellar ..
We only need £22 to make CF a happy jimp ...

£2 sent! :D
I think the money would be better spent on a commission. How about a drawing of CF snogging Judge Dredd? :lol:
£2 paid ! Expect to see it hanging over the cellar door in early course.
£6 so far .....
Money sent :)
£8.50 ....so far
And £2 from me, as well.
£10.50
sent an email to the seller and got this back , which gave me a big smile :
Hi Dale, if you put a bid in at £18 there's a chance you'll get it for that and I'd be happy for you to pick it up in person so you wouldn't have to pay postage. If however you don't want to wait till Sunday and would rather buy it now I'd accept £25 for it. I'm happy for you to pay cash on collection if you want. It's unframed but if you want, for another £10 I can put it in a frame with glass.
Please let me know if you definitely want it and I 'll end the auction and send you my contact details.
Thanks, -Jef

Bless his little cotton socks! :lol:
It would make a nice set with the Robocop one.

there's mine!
i've sent a bit I hope it got through.
If it's 'graffiti' art then maybe we could pay him to come and spray something on the side of CF's house in the middle of the night. That way, rather than the artwork being tucked away in the cellar, we'd all be able to see it via Google Earth :lol:
In the meantime, cash sent.
Spray cans at Dawn , i am just seeing CF running out of his house in his Dredd undercrackers and Helmet on and nothing else ( gonna have to drink heavy to get that image out of my head now ....aarrrrr ) ....
Right we are up to £13.50
Now do i bid and take the chance of winning or go for the option of a private buy it now ... i think take the chance ??? hehehe
Zarjazzer you might wanna check , but not have come through my side ...
paypal says i t is unclaimed fatboydale as yet.I sent it all lower case to th e ntl address.Don't know what else to tell ya.
wait I know what I've done i missed a bit doh! Will cancel this one and re-send. :-[
Update-should be with you now.
£2 sent!
This is going to look fabulous on the wall! A real heirloom.
Although I think getting it sprayed onto the house is an idea of genius!
nearly there , ..... now shall i ask about the Spray Job on CF house???
Robo cop would look great as a matching pair ... might not get into John's cellar thou ....
Ok shall i just bid on it .... or go for the buy it now price ?
Just bid, and hope nobody 'snipes' it! :lol:
I reckon bid - we want to get the frame as well remember!

With ebay, theres always the risk of heartbreak, :(
Wonder if at some point in the future, a bit of random googling will bring the seller to this very thread?
And just had a quick peep at it, and i see it now has a bid on it. Please let that be you, Dale!

sshhhhh we have a member who is thinking about contacting the seller to scupper our plans .... lol we will know if its you John ... ::)
And yes it is me who has bid ....fingers crossed , gonna auctionsnipe it as well ...
Just spoke to John and i get the feeling he is really really looking forward to getting the artwork .
we still need a few more donations as we are up to £18.50 .. please add your Forum name so CF can thank you all ( or hunt you down ). :D
Why has Dredd got a chip on his upper lip?
I wouldn't worry for the guy's feelings - he'll be laughing it up over being a professional artist and suckering some fanboys out of £18.

Maybe we could get him to do commissions; a Burdis family portrait perhaps.

WHOO HOO! This is going to look AMAZING in The Cellar! :lol:
pheeewwwww we won , was worried at losing out on this page ..... not gotta ask CF for his addy ... cf drop a text ...

It was all rather nail biting, wasnt it. But excellent news!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :'(
I think it will be pride of place in the cellar and the first thing grabbed in the event of fire. You know why? because his friends rallied around and bought it for him.
On second thought lining the budgie's cage is a good position too.
well done . This board may have started a new art style recognised down the ages known as the "Burdis Movement"...and Buttonman's right, of course it would be the first thing grabbed in an emergency (oo -er missus) as what's better - personally signed stuff from Karl Urban and John Wagner or this fine art piece?

Maybe if we send it to John Wagner first he will sign it.
But we all know deep down CF is loving this and it will be pride of place in his dining room.

This should be presented to him by Tharg while CF in his Jimp suit :D
Are we all gonna chip in and buy him that Urban Dredd costume from the Prop shop, now?
There is no need for that, as you have all shown your love for me with this wonderful painting :thumbsup:

yeah if it's artistic.We'll have to hype it up ya know- fights, denouncements and selling out to the capitalists mahhn. Just like a real art movement.
Anyway I look forward, as I'm sure all boarders do to seeing a photo of said art piece in pride of place with happy owner.
Picked the art up tonight ...
Was going to strip naked and pose with the artwork and send a photo to John ... wife talked me out of it , she said John knows where you live and drive's a hgv lorry ...i would have been squealing like a pig ...lol
anyways here is a photo ...now to post it off to John ...
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v493/fatboydale/121.jpg)
Why does Dredd have a chip on his face and has only 3 fingers?
Can I have my £2 back?
I'm starting to see the artistic...................................................... :eh:
Hang on a second, I thought the chip was a milk tach but it seems to be his mouth, I'm impressed!
How chuffed was the seller when you met him?!
@CF - it's definitely a milk 'tache! Didn't they use Dredd for that Drink Milk campaign they ran in the States!? :lol:
He has done a stant up job one the Lawgiver. It is spot on. Come on Tharg give this man a job.

Now that is summat else indeed. A genuine piece of work, that.
If it looks half as good in real life as it does in that photo then it was money well spent.
But no trying to keep it Dale, or making out the post office lost it, this is CF's now.
How much was that bought for?

You can't put a price on quality like that.

I love it!
Perhaps this should go in the 'things that went over your head' thread but I have genuinely JUST realised that the milk 'tache is Dredd's gritted teeth! :-[
Text John a couple of times for his addy to send this art ..... nothing back yet ... come on mate , i'm starting to like this art .... ;)
Just address it to Cellar Of Dredd, Maidstone. It'll get there.

Thnaks for that, well over my head.
I'm sure a boarder can supply CF location if he's acting coy :D

.....and only thirty quid postage. Bargain. :-\
It appears to have been laminated too, so any spillages will wipe straight off :thumbsup:.
John, I realise its a bit crass to do this I public but I've got the big Colin MacNeil splash page where Dredd smacks Johnny Alpha, Henry Flint's thirty years of Dredd cover and Ridgeways Deadman cover. Would you be prepared to do a trade?
Cheeky bugger Mr Wells, deal ;)
Well folks the package has arrived but I haven't been able to bring myself to open it. Rest assured though, I will soon and I'll do it on film so all can see my reaction. I just need to gather my strength for the moment!
Stay tuned :'(

And how grateful you look CF. Why it's almost breathtaking to see this fine work out of it's no doubt, armoured protective glass case.
Fantastic! :lol:
Still looks like a milk tash on his top lip :lol:
Never a more gracious face to be found. :lol:
The video is now up on the blog, so why not enjoy the opening ceremony with me HERE! (http://cellarofdredd.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/a-gift-from-2000ad-forum.html)
That's so funny! :lol:
He likes it really, you can tell ;) - And yes, i agree with CF that it would make a superb IDW Dredd cover.

You've posted that piccie upside down shirley!
Funny video, very deadpan. :)
That packaging seemed to be winning the battle for a while.. :lol:
Nice T-Shirt though
The old Southern Contingent T-Shirt, only one known to exist ;)
That packaging was impressive and shows that Dale knows how to pack artwork to travel the world and stop it being damaged!
What a wonderful, heartwarming video John. I must admit to feeling quite emotional as I watched it.
Buying you a painting of that quality really shows the regard in which you are so rightly held. I wish I'd chipped in myself...
Glad to see your bomb disposal skills came in handy for unwrapping that... :thumbsup:

Not felt the urge to cosplay as your bit of art, CF?
Just needs a milk 'tache and a bent lawgiver.
