Quote from: Dash Decent on 12 December, 2023, 02:12:24 PM... they've used thin paper and the printing on one side shows through the other a little. It's tolerable but noticeable.

Thanks - yes there's a review of one of the 1-volume editions on Amazon that says much the same. Hmmm

Woody your latest "snowman" pic is my fav

What is Dredd thinking?

Is he Jay walking, causing an obstruction?

I'm taking him down these perp are all just snowflake's

That's what I think he's thinking

Well it does meet the criteria, but you'll just need to be patient!

🥳🥳🥳🥳 I'm hoping I'll have to be verrrry patient it deserves to be very high in my opinion

C & H covers all genres - there's space travelling Spaceman Spiff, detective Tracer Bullet, time travel, dinosaurs, the Susie Derkins romance, the no-one-say-nuthin' noodle incident*, the Sisyphean labour that is the reading of Hamster Huey and the Gooey Balooie**, the school bully storyline of every low teens adolescent story, the faithful friend/pet/animal, family relationships, etc. It even has some humour tucked away in it. Gold, gold, gold.

* The Noodle Incident would be a great name for a band, or an album.
** Someone should get permission to write this and make it real. If "Lady Don't Fall Backwards" can happen, this should to.

What a wonderfully mad submission from staticgirl - so much going, and I LOVE the character design of the malevolent looking Christmas tree! The candy cane arms are inspired!
Colin's Dan and Mekon cartoon is an absolute delight - thanks again for stepping in for me yesterday.
Trooper's snow globe is amazing - how on earth do you make these things?? My skills are purely 2D and I can't deny I'm a little envious of your sculpting skills, Nicely done!
I think Dash Decent is the hero of this year's calendar - never failing to deliver the humour! Well done, sir!

On a more sad note, I just wanted to express my gratitude to Ian Gibson for leaving behind such a incredible legacy, so much artwork that has kept us fans happy for decades. I feel lucky I got to meet him a couple of years ago, and he was such a lovely gentlemen who clearly loved meeting his fans. He joins some of his peers who have sadly already departed and like them, he will be missed so very, very much.
Thank you Ian.

Love the snowglobe Trooper, be interested as to how you made this.

Andy, your pics are amazing as always, looking forward to your latest.

Check out the "Does my figure look big in this" thread

Another snowman classic Woody - do you have one for each day?

Funt luv'n the previous Xmas prog covers and glad to know we have 2 more to come.

Andy you just keep them coming they are class.

And talking of class - Dash these probably deserve a thread of there own where we can appreciate them in all their glory and chuckles

Keep it up all this has been superb and still 11 days to go.

Judge Woody · 14 December, 2023, 12:04:39 AM

Have more Snowmen, not sure how many more Dredd based ones, but have other themes I'd done in the past.

M.I.K. · 14 December, 2023, 02:12:30 AM

Pretty certain that Anderson's by Jason Brashill.

Trooper McFad · 14 December, 2023, 10:13:41 AM

TLS gives us another hatrick. Not listening to the song for a fear of a crappy ear worm 😂. Dredd is great - is that confiscated presents he's sitting on? Still enjoying the script and I have high hopes of you sticking the ending- no pressure now 😁

Woody - just keep them coming

Dash - steps up again but I have to say I'm surprised that The Mighty one is running after another being?

Andy - another cracker I have a soft spot for Mongrol and I will create my own one day
