LITTLE RED POLITICALLY CORRECT RIDING HOOD PAGE 1

This is part one (of two) of a strip I drew for Smut, the comic for adults. Editor Clive Ward needed to fill a couple of pages and was stuck for ideas, so he dug out an old script for me to draw.

I had just finished a 22-page strip with a crush deadline and was knackered, so I decided to have fun with it. I experimented with different nibs (I ink artwork using traditional dip pens) and added as many visual gags as occurred to me as I drew, no matter how daft. Clive's script was as usual brilliant, and his Red Riding Hood character was such a proper little madam that I decided to give her an enormous mouth and big hobnailed boots. Everybody must know a little girl like this. Or possibly I feel that way because I grew up with three sisters and no brothers.
