A crying shame we never saw more his colour work on Dredd.

Ron's colour work was great, but this ain't it -- colours are credited to Elitta Fell* alongside the letters on the first page.

Cheers!

Jim

*Always wondered whether Elitta Fell and Ellie De Ville were the same person. The names are phonetically similar and the hand-lettering styles were very close. Elitta's lettering suspiciously vanished from the prog around the same time Ellie's started to appear...

Thanks for part two, Jimbo. I particularly liked the knob gag!

this is simply magnificent stuff. Cheers Dark Jimbo.

As promised, here's part II

Great stuff! Thanks for taking the time to scan and post these,  :thumbsup:

I've never seen these before; thanks for the scan!

No probs guys - Ron was a superlative artist (as well as seeming like a thoroughly lovely chap) and it seemed a shame that here was more great art from him that very, very few people had probably seen. I couldn't think of anywhere on the 'net where this was more likely to be appreciated.

That's great. I never even knew Ron had done these.

In a similar vein, Carlos did at least one strip in a Russ Abbott annual, but I sadly don't actually have a copy.

It's a joke. I was joking.
