“I had already started working on the show when we watched Dredd and I knew within 10 minutes that I was going to have to include him. He’s just so iconicly badass and the movie sort of slipped under the radar. I wanted to show my appreciation for what I thought was a totally original and refreshing movie, and Karl Urban’s performance.”

2000 AD ONLINE MARCH ART COMP - RISE OF THE ROBOTS
As I won the February competition I got to pick the theme for this month:
Robots have had a long and illustrious life within the pages of the galaxy’s greatest comic from the A.B.C. Warriors to Walter the Robot via Ro-Busters, Call-me-Kenneth and P14. This month lets celebrate the circuit board and render some robots. Draw your favourite robot character, draw your favourite character as they would look if they were a robot or create your own A.B.C. Warrior and have fun doing it.
Unfortunately I didn’t finish my entry in time this month. Here is my work in progress. Tharg’s humble helper Burt.
