I've just come across these excellent 'Fly on the wall' videos on YouTube starring Don Lawrence talking about his work on Trigan Empire and Storm (and others). Very nice.

Ooof, blooming marvelous links Al!!!
On a deadline but had to stop to take a gander as I've NEVER seen the footage of the Trigan cover painting!!

Funnily enough I have the Storm page painting on VHS which is a LOT longer and includes a long phone conversation with Martin Lodewijk at the beginning - Martin is descibing the script and how he wants each page broken down into panels and how the action fits into in each panel. Don roughing it out whilst on the speaker phone with Martin. Rubbing bits out every time Martin forgets to mention something important in the panel.. And then it's 'cheerio'... Cup of tea, cigarette and cricket and away he goes painting. An awesome artist.
