If you're working without patterns, you've done a very good job of proportions and paint.
Good carving details in the wood that you selected.
Somehow, our local papers always avoided running that cartoon strip.

Brilliant !

I'd just said, "That's brilliant", and came to comment but obviously others think the same

Great work! Are you planning more? If so Dogmatix would be cool.

I was (am) a big fan of Asterix as a kid!
