I think I've got a picture of Paul and a sketch of Ludo that she's done, but I wouldn't put 'em up without her permission, and I wouldn't put 'em up until I got more fan art from other quarters, at which point I'd probably give 'em their own page.

I was watching a film earlier and I just had an image that would work well as a drawing... so before I actually started I wondered how you'd feel about about someone else drawing your characters?

Hey, I'd be quite flattered if people started doing me fanart. Only one who seems to do any is Sarah and only when I ask her to.

Charlies Angels?! Oh dear. This isn't a woman thing, is it?<P>And as for fanart, why doesn't Sarah post her YTOTW art, if theres more than the strip she did for you?<P>------------------

*blink* define woman thing...? if by woman thing you mean 'of men' then yeah... but let's face it there's not much female flesh to work with... just a raging psycho and a brain in a jar...<P>Heh... I just got an image and decided to draw it

Slow down everyone, or you'll have him monopolised before you can say 'Railtrack'.<P>Despite its superficial crapness, Interstate 82 can be very addictive. Which is why I dissappeared for a bit. Besides that, Meeky, by 'woman thing' I meant the whole 'Ooo Charlies Angels girl power!' thing, y'know, people who can't see past the plain exploitation rather than feminism of the movie. Anyway...<P>Is your site partially dead? Or is it my computer being dense again? I certainly could load any of your images. Ach well. I found the site very nice by the way. I'd like to link to it, assuming I ever get my FTP password back. Sigh.<P>------------------

If I could figure out how to make money off my site believe me I would... Mine's just there because I'm a bit of a layout freak and I needed somewhere half decent to host my fics and drawings...<P>

Thanks very much... I just realised (the way you do) that you can't read what it says on Ludo's screen... it's supposed to say bastards... instead of mere smear <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif">

Ooh, I like that. Nifty. Maybe I'll put a link to it on the front page or something.<P>EDIT - Right, it's on the newsbox. If I get a few more bits I might make a fanart page, but until then, this is your prize.<p>[This message has been edited by Yahtzee (edited 10-27-2001).]

That's actually very good. Even better now that I know what the screen says.
I can't quite relate to the style of the drawind, though. It seems unnatural. Call me aesthetically challanged, but I think this style fits the comic best, and that it wouldn't be better off hand-drawn.<P>Still, great picture.<P>Incidentally, Yahtzee, what do you think of fan strips?
