2000AD September Art Comp: This Is The End, Beautiful Friend

[TordelBack]

Oh man, the tweaking of Dredd's appearance/uniform are the stuff of genius!

[Mardroid]

Triple barrel lawgiver? Nice one.

I'd better get back to mine soon before I run out of time...

MiniBolt has just finished the inks on his, but It is on overlay paper so will need a careful scan. PLEASE KEEP THE COMP OPEN TILL END OF SUNDAY. Give us chance to get it online.Ta.

What's worth to you, eh?

Oh ... all right, then.

Cheers!

Cheers Jim!

That's good for me too. I've finished most of my inking now. Sort of...

Actually turned out better than I thought although not a scratch on most of these here.

Still got to scan it in. (Or photo. Annoying thing is the computer I use isn't compatible with the scanner. (Vista.) Which means scanning to an old PC then copying to a memory stick... except both of those appear to have been sucked through a wormhole to a parralel dimension somewhere. I blame the hardron collider thing. Yeah, I know it's switched off, but cause and effect are all messed up when rents in space-time are involved. )

I'm not sure whether to bother colouring it or not...

On hearing the deadline had been extended I've had a go as a tribute to Massimo and a great strip that never really got the end it deserved... I'm no Frank Frazetta, but I'm sure you get the jist...

"Between the time when the stars drank Abbo Dabbo, and the rise of the sons of Feek, there was an age undreamed of. And onto this, Ace Garp, destined to wear the jewelled crown of Porkina upon a troubled brow. It is I, his chronicler, who alone can tell thee of his saga... Let me tell you of the days of high adventure!"



So did Ace Garp return the wayward daughter of King Porkina to her home.  And having no further concern, he and his companions sought adventure in the Western Spiral.  Many wars and feuds did Ace Garp fight.  Honour and fear were heaped upon his name and, in time, he became a king by his own hand...

Alas, this story shall never be told.

Regarding Mike Carrolls' Entry.

I like it, as I'm getting very good impression of how Will Ferrell would look in a Judge Uniform. Which re-enforcers my opinion that he would make a great Judge Cal.

[critter]

The most horrid death I could think of... Oy! Stan! Nooooooo!



'Nuff said. (Who is Nuff, anyway, and what did he say?)

That'd would definitely be the end of everything.

ok sorry for the delay and thanks for extending the deadline jim - this is how gene dies;
this is such a good comp there has been some really really nice entries!!

[Mardroid]

Yikes that's gruesome!

(Yikes?  I'm talking Beano!)

Anyway, here's mine. It's not complete as you can see- I did a bit of colouring but it was pretty half-arsed and mostly greys as you can see. It's actually the last page rather than just one panel. Hope that's ok. (I drew it straight on A4 printer paper with pencil then inked over with a pen directly then photographed it and edited it a bit on the computer.) Unfortunately there was rather a lot of smudging. Sorry for the mess.  Be gentle.

Sigh.

It's too large. Ok, here is a link:

Ok, just noticed something else I should have editted. And please forgive my childish handwriting. I did think to redo the text on the computer but I'm still trying to work out how to do it with my new art package. (GIMP 2. ) It looks quite small on screen but clicking on it zooms in. (At least it does on my computer using Firefox.)

[Mardroid]

The bottom line of the bottom left panel should read "THE OLD JUSTICE DAYS BEFORE HE WENT SENILE."  I had to squeeze it in and it's not that easy to pick out.

I'll leave myself more time next time... and learn to work my graphics package properly.

[SuperSurfer]

Very funny. That image of Dredd in the pot helmet cracked me up.

[Darren Stephens]

Heh, class. I reaaaaallly wanted to enter the compo this month and thats the sort of thing i'd have been hoping to achieve. Ah well, hope next months subject is as good as this one.....
