I probably shouldn't be posting some of my early work as most of it was a bit rough and it shows. However, even allowing for the deficiencies, some of it isn't too bad for a teenager and would have been improved with only a bit of 'polish'. (A bolder, more confident outline for a start.) The above is one I did for a local business back in the '70s and, yes, I was paid for it. I did quite a few for this company (all for newspaper publication), but this is the only one I kept a copy of as it was the first. Which is a shame, now that I think of it, because some of them were quite good.
The gag's cool - reminds me of the days when the remote control was us kids! :)
ReplyDeleteI remember those days well.

ReplyDeleteInstantly transported back up to date! :)
Careful, some cable company might steal it. (Chortle.) I think I did this back in 1976 - who knew what lay ahead, technology-wise, eh? Having said that, they're usually working on new technology at least 20 years before it's released to the public.
