News At Bedtime

This was a little piece I did last weekend for the Radio Times christmas edition (out today!). The print size for this is very small, so I could have got away with less detail than I went into, but I was having fun with it and got carried away. I worked the whole time in black and white, starting with a rough sketch in photoshop, then spreading 15 hours work over two days. I added the colour about 30 minutes to an hour before the deadline.

The piece is based on a radio programme called News At Bedtime, a show with presenters John Tweedledum (Jack Dee- right) and Jim Tweedledee (Peter Capaldi- left).
