That's great!

(Love the Speccy loading sounds, BTW!)

And after the cover-shoot was done, all the props were put back into storage...

Album covers, eh?
(Chosen purely because Brian May has Johnny Alpha-style curly hair!)

Got to admit, I love her choice of belt-buckle.

Says it all, really.

1. Kerrin - sure, it's only quick sketch but it's just so brilliant an idea!

It's shameless self-pimping time again!

The finished version of the Judge Dredd Belt Buckle is now available from http://www.termight.co.uk/ - order one right now! - but for those interested in such things, here's the final 3D model:



And there's lots more 2000 AD 3D stuff on my website - http:/www.michaelowencarroll.com - for your perusal!

Hooray! My buckles arrived this morning - man, they're good!

It's great to see the finished product after all this time (and work): From the initial design to the final version I produced around forty 3D models, restarting from scratch several times, but it was definitely worth it.

Well done, Wake - another quality product from Termight Replicas!

Happy Birthday, Floyd!

Hope you're having a good one!

Just received my copy of Zarjaz this morning...

Lordy, there's some darned good stories in there (especially mine) and the artwork is top-notch (especially the logo)! Excellent work all round, guys - it's more fun than two barrels of monkeys!

Have to ask... Whose?

Mind you, my favourite Viz special edition offer has to be the 'Elvis Presley Dambusters clock plate of Tutankhamun'.

Yep, that's my favourite too - and I believe (though I could be wrong) that the ad was so popular that the things were actually made. I'd love one!

Yaaaaaaaaaay!

What can I say? I'm honoured that my story won - though it was a close-run thing, I suspect! I'd like to thank the academy, etc.

Though I didn't get a chance to vote I was very impressed with the quality of the stories - coupled with the art compos, I think we've got some very talented people here. Hey, here's an idea: why don't we all team up and do our own comic?! It'd be great!

For the next writing compo I'm thinking that maybe an upper limit of 500 words would make it a little easier for people to judge the stories. Such a limit would, of course, also make it harder to write the tales, but then adversity is the zygote of creativity...

As for the topic... Inspired by Godpleton's fun (though somewhat mental) Batman / Dredd tale, how about this: It's Crossover Time! Entries must feature at least one 2000 AD character meeting up with a character (or characters) from anywhere outside 2000 AD - other comics, books, TV, movies...

Examples:
Canon Fodder vs. Father Jack
Slaine vs. Ike Broflovsky
Walter the Wobot vs. Wambo (I mean, Rambo)

That sound like fun to anyone?
