Title: 2000AD Artwork Gallery major update
Post by: Wake on 06 October, 2005, 06:03:00 PM
I collected nearly 150 pages of artwork from 6 artists at DreddCon and I've finally uploaded all the pages apart from some unpublished Rogue Trooper from Simon Coleby.

Boo Cook - Judge Dredd
(http://www.2000ad.org/artwork/?choice=WAKE&gallery=CHARLIEA&page=gallery2)

Dylan Teague - Chopper
(http://www.2000ad.org/artwork/?choice=WAKE&gallery=JOHNM&page=gallery2)

Patrick Goddard - more Chopper
(http://www.2000ad.org/artwork/?choice=WAKE&gallery=DYLANT&page=gallery2)

Apart from that I bought one Breathing Space page for myself from Laurence Campbell.

Hopefully I should have more Breathing Space pages to sell at a later date.

Cheers,

Wake

Good grief - how stunning does Breathing Space look in B&W? Makes me wish the whole series had been left like that...

Yep, all those heavy shadows make it look like it was meant to be black and white anyway

Title: Judge King Flashbacks
Post by: Funt Solo on 06 October, 2005, 06:51:00 PM
Whilst Judge King has had an unjudicial liaison by the time we meet him in Breathing Space, and ends up dead, he does also mention living through the Apocalypse War, Necropolis and Judgement Day.

I thought it might be interesting to see some tales from his past during those tumultuous times.

"how stunning does Breathing Space look in B&W?"

And then some.  That is just so tasty.

D'you think it'd be possible/feasible to have an EE or similar reprinting selected strips (like this) in black and white?  There must be a few things kicking around that deserve to be seen uncoloured.

Well, it'd rule out Breathing Space mainly because the first couple of episodes were painted by Pete Docherty. Although he did then in a much more 'traditional' comic book style than he has in the past, it'd still destroy his colour art (which, I feel, set the whole tone of the strip)

Either that or just get Laurence Campbell/Lee Townsend on a black and white strip ASAP.

lastrespects5 would be my choice.

Id say Dochertys artwork set the tone but also lures us in then quite purposely disposes of lighter persuasions for a more stark black and white unhingedness.

Saying that I still prefer Docherty's Earth.

Indeed. Pete Doherty's colours did a good job of drawing his section and Laurence's art together, but I don't think they particularly suited Campbell's gorgeous B&W work.
