I emailed the pin-up of the female firefighter to Chas last night and he took it into work with him to show the lads at the station and it seems one of the blokes is now considering having it as a tattoo. Praise indeed!

The words of Spiderman are rolling though my head now... "With great power comes great responability"... OK, so I'm eggagerating a bit but I'm chuffed to bits the rest of the firefighters liked the drawing so much. Maybe Chas will share it with you lot too... if you bribe him nicely Heheheheheee

That is a lovely bit of work Biker!! I've copied it to a fireman mate of mine, he'll love it.

Have you had any cartooning/drawing training or does it come naturally?

 

[Biker]

Thanks for showing that Chas.

Ron, I haven't had any formal training in artwork, just loved doing it since I was a nipper drawing all sorts of things, time passed and I discovered the wonderful evocative curves and lines that females are made of, since then it has become my life's goal to keep drawing them until I get that perfect line... it's a dirty job but someone has to do it LOL. Being a creep has it's benefits. So I guess you could say it comes naturally.

Message to Ged, the trousers I nabbed off you have arrived at my Mother's house safe and sound. Thanks for them, I'll collect them when I'm next in the UK
