@paul...Didn't think I had time but was a little frustrated with the comic page I was drawing so took a break. Bit of a rush job and didn't think too hard on it. sigh...now back to work.
Sincere thanks from me and Si to everyone who read, spread the word and took part in this challenge.
Fair to say, I think, that while we knew the art submitted would be of high quality, the five pieces we got all blew us away. Like the R/R threads, it's a delight to see what people can do, and it's proved once again what a talented lot Whitechapel has as members.
Si's left the final choice to me, and it's this piece by @mojokingbee. I pretty much could have written the story almost word for word FROM the art, and while a spot illustration could easily have won, this one does it for me.
Every one of the art pieces put up deserve applause, folks. Thanks so much for taking part.
So, @mojokingbee - congrats and thank you; now I need a writing challenge from you for the next art challenge.
A four word title and a word to use in the story itself. Let 'er rip.
