Page 6 – Little Als’ legs
Knitted mohair sweaters were fashion in the 1980-ies. I remember this one very well, I made it myself. The Little Al comics were inked using the type of pen architect uses- widths 0,25 and 0,50 mm. You had to shake them once in a while to get the ink flowing, that is what I´m doing in frame number three. But those pens used to dry up fast and get unuseful so I rather don´t use them anymore.
As a kid there was a kids programme about a boy that went to the world of his own unfinished drawings. He had to meet girls without legs, dogs without ears etc – and he had to finish them to help his two dimentional friends. I guess that old story influenced todays strip, and I hope I won´t have to face my own unfinished creatures some day.
