Anyone fancy adding words to my Durham Red strip?
« on: 18 November, 2009, 07:15:50 PM »
Here's my Durham strip that was featured in the last Dogbreath. I decided to draw the whole thing before adding any dialogue/captions/narration, then in the end left intentionally blank. But I thought it might be interesting if someone else had a go at adding those... feel free to take it in any direction you want  :)

I've included links to bigger versions at the bottom.

Nice pictures, Grimm!

But you need to offer the forum a prize to avoid outright filth if there's to be even an outside chance for this to end well.

TBH the is no need for dialogue, your art speaks for itself.

We love it when something like this turns up in our inbox.
A brilliantly drawn strip we didn't need to do anything with save print it!

Absolutely.  Adding words would be madness.

Yeah it is beautifully drawn and very clear as far as the idea goes...the words would have to be very, very good to enhance what;s already here. Well done as usual, Grimm!

This doesn't NEED dialogue, but I guess if you're twisting our collective arms, someone will do SOMETHNG wilth it. Someone OTHER than Locusts I mean.

Roger for example....

Wonderful, Grimm. You have done something very few are able to do, construct a strip with a clear narrative without the use of dialogue. Well done Sir.

I'm pretty sure I've told mgb this by email (but if I hadn't I'm sure I was meaning to ;) ) but it is well worth underlining.
if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
