"It's Mel Gibson!"

Ha ha!  Yeah - I thought it ended up looking a bit like him, too. Total fluke - if I'd tried to draw Mel Gibson, it would have ended up looking more like Mel Brooks.

Still, I might turn his eyes blue and make like it was deliberate...

Anyway, the monkey is a clear winner - why, no one else has even drawn one.

Monkey.  In a hat.  Wearing some Y-fronts.

Thanks to LMS for lending me the Y-fronts...
Title: Re: Board Art Competition............
Post by: Wils on 22 December, 2003, 07:53:50 PM
To be pedantic; it's an ape in a fez. *Not* the same as a monkey in a hat, I'm afraid. :p
Title: Re: Board Art Competition............
Post by: Dudley on 22 December, 2003, 07:57:15 PM
Very flat underpants there.  Is the monkey angry because he's lost his nuts?
Title: Re: Board Art Competition............
Post by: Matt Timson on 22 December, 2003, 08:50:09 PM
Gorillas have very small... equipment.  And it's a simian of some description- still a monkey in a hat as far as I'm concerned!

Ape indeed... Pfff!
Title: Re: Board Art Competition............
Post by: Noisybast on 22 December, 2003, 11:52:12 PM
Sure, 'tis a fine monkey, Mr Eyebrows.

Post by: petemaskreplica on 23 December, 2003, 03:25:30 AM
Sorry, but Wils is right. It's not a monkey, it's an ape. And it's not a hat, it's a fez.

Just ask this woman...
Title: Re: Board Art Competition............
Post by: Matt Timson on 23 December, 2003, 03:44:32 AM
It's a gorilla.  However, if it wants to call itself a monkey in a hat- I'm not going to argue with it.

Not in those pants, anyway.

Pedantic b*stards...

"It appears to be juggling several members of this boards heads..."

Only those insensitive to its plight.  At all other times, it is a calm monkey (trapped within a gorilla's body).  In a hat.  Wearing Molcher's Y-fronts.

Yes.

No way!  I've removed all reference to my handsome visage from the net- you'll have to wait until some sneaky git catches me at a con!

It could be worse.  I could be really, *really* shit- put up three pics a day (complete with teasers every ten minutes.  On different threads) and then argue the toss with anybody who was foolish enough to not recognise the fact that I am *clearly* the next big thing in comics and that Flint "can't draw/has ruined/has no respect for Dredd" and should move over...

I'm just a fan and I like to draw pretty fanboy pictures.  The real skill is in making decent, readable strips- any pencil monkey can draw a pin up!

Now go put some fires out...
