concerning the hamlet of Green Hollow

well Ive been sketching and doodling ideas for a project and have finally got an idea I'm really excited about. it concerns the hamlet of green hollow, a small community united under growing vegetables and getting drunk at the ol fox hole on a Saturday night. a quintessential idyllic hamlet however the people who live in this hamlet are some what different to normal people. their only 10 inces tall. this project is a evolution of my old project which was entitled "concerning the other folk". i have decided to create 20 characters each named, sketched, sculpted and photographed in a real woodland with buildings to scale. this project will be done over a year and i intend to create the hamlet by the end of the year and have it on show. its a tall order but i look forward to starting. once my scanner is working again ill put up the first designs. watch this space

more judge Dai and other assorted 2000AD stuff

in an earlier post i introduced my own character Judge Dai. hes a character based on the 2000AD character judge Dredd and inhabits the same world as Dredd but is instead in the apocalyptic land that is wales. after the atomic wars only a few towns survived in wales, abandoned by Britcit it is a town ruled only by the few judges who still live and get by in the town of Megadare. fighting roid boys, chavos and skanks its quite hard to get by but when you got a lawgiver its not all that bad..
