I adore your Molesworth Pastiches, Tarrant looks like he's auditioning for the Corps de Ballet.

tarrant ta ra!

Honestly, your pics are brilliant & your commentary is even better. Have you considered writing a Molesworth B7 story?

[vilakins.livejournal.com]

No, because Neil Faulkner did that already and so much better. I'll collect these on my site when I get the energy.

Do you know the originals? Anarchic and brilliant 50s fun, like the Goons were. :-D

No, saly, I don't though your drawings have made me really want to.
