SOMETHING SURE SMELLS FISHY ABOUT THIS...


Printed result

Here's one that didn't get away.  I was in my local chip shop one night and the owner asked me if I'd do a cartoon to advertise his delivery service.  Rather than take the man's money, I asked for a fish supper every week for a year.  (With an onion and a beetroot for good measure.)  Not too bad for half an hour's work, eh?

Above is the finished article which appeared on his shop bags and leaflets for years; below is the "rough" of the initial idea.

  2. Hi John. Yup, and huge portions too. I wouldn't mind a deal like that today.
