On that first picture of Francis, on the reverse side of the paper, is that Hitler? no -it is Dr Watson (note bowler hat) - he's with Sherlock Holmes and they are looking at a tree with LMN written on it (it's cropped) - you can imagine what Holmes is saying...

I used to doodle Quo a fair bit - they were so instantly recognisable. And I think you'll agree, their music really did go hranka-tanka (guitar) and boomba boomba boomba doodle-ee (bass) think Roadhouse Blues for that bass line. Young man, you should be doing your homework.

Love them. Especially the last one - Rossi's Tele perspective is spot on. Isn't it just. Bang on.

Fantastic drawings there, GHB. You certainly had an eye for essentials. Thanks for sharing. I don't think I've ever drawn pictures of Quo. It wouldn't have done them justice anyway. My eldest son is quite good at drawing though, and he has drawn quite a few nice pictures for me. A few years ago he gave me a coloured pencil drawing of the two crossed guitars, an amazing "replica" of Rick's white telecaster made from cardboard and pencil on paper (you can actually see and feel the wood and all the scratches), and a black and white portrait of Rick in pencil. At the photography club at school I once created a black and white photo of Rick in jeans and a white shirt from a picture I had cut out of a music magazine. The teacher asked me who that was, and I told him, blush, blush, but of course he had no idea who I was talking about. And I used to write gig reports for my English teacher when I was about 12 or 13. She said she enjoyed them very much and she always wrote something nice underneath. I do remember trying to draw a portrait of Alice Cooper when I was 12, but my friend told me Alice would definitely kill me if he ever got to see it.

Nice work gates though that's much better than a doodle. More like comic art. It's a talent. Can you still do it?

Great stuff. I used to something like that at school, college and at home. The only difference was, mine were crap!

Well, personally, I don't think those actually look like the band members, it is all just hair, and a few characteristic things, like Alan's studded jeans and Frame's big flares. That's what a good caricature is all about. Take a prominent feature and exaggerate it. Like everybody who is working class is on benefits?
