My colleague/drinking buddy <a href="http://doinkydoodles.blogspot.com/">Luke</a> helped me with the character design (although his sketches were more extreme... boobs down to the floor etc.)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6970144854881376223-1293406350966419491?l=johngodwin.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Johnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04446857411188297498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6970144854881376223.post-26968717329699485012009-04-05T19:21:00.004+01:002011-02-15T15:29:28.403Z<a rel="shadowbox" href="http://www.idlecreations.com/john/blog/duke_of_newcombe.jpg"> <img src="http://www.idlecreations.com/john/blog/duke_of_newcombe_T.jpg" alt="The reputable Duke of Newcombe.

This was one of the two main characters. The axe is for defense! These panels aren't in the correct order either...<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6970144854881376223-5374831781803096475?l=johngodwin.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Johnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04446857411188297498noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6970144854881376223.post-41350993353831786912009-03-29T23:23:00.006+01:002009-04-27T22:26:35.589+01:00<a rel="shadowbox" href="http://www.idlecreations.com/john/blog/adrift_splash.jpg"><br /><img src="http://www.idlecreations.com/john/blog/adrift_splash_T.jpg" alt="Adrift Splash by John Godwin" /><br /></a><br /><br />So, crikey, first actual post.
