When we were kids, we always used the lamp-post as the start point for hide and seek. Poor old Nev here hasn't quite realised that on account of his size, he can't get away with the old 'hide behind the lamp-post' trick.
Oh, Nev, you so crazy!

Two ink print on any light/bright colour. Can be printed either black or brown. See my blog for alternative colourways and placements.

Neville's friend has some BIG OLD FOREARMS. Could you imagine unfolding those? They'd be past his knees!

Other than that alarming detail, this is pretty nice, sort of an Edward Gorey style.

This reminds me of Edward Gorey. Fabulous.

I really like the style and mood. It seems like maybe they should be standing on a sidewalk or path though, or someplace where a lamppost would be(unless it's Narnia?). The grass doesn't really anchor the image for me.

Nice work!

Love it.

I'm a little torn: on the one hand I'm a huge Gorey fan and love his style, and therefore should love this... but it's a little too close for comfort for me. This goes from homage to rip-off in my book--especially since Gorey did a Neville cartoon...

You're even using Gorey font.

sierragrace on Feb 19 '08

this is quite lovely; I assume Gorey influenced? that was my first thought...agree with the dilemma of von Vismal but I'll give you the creative benefit of the doubt :) good job!

BaronVonMonkey on Feb 20 '08

Haha- I don't really know Edward Gorey's work very well at all, alas! Someone said my style was similar on another sub, but I haven't really explored it further. If anyone can link me to something similar, please do. The font is one I use all the time, based on eighteenth century letterpress. But if this is close to something else, I do apologise.

Oh, and Neville, while being a rather comical name, is actually the name of my eldest brother- More of an homage to him, than anyone else!
