Inspector Blakey from the series of paintings for the upcoming On the Buses DVD box set. Painted in the same manner as the 'Arthur' piece, though the pencils were much more detailed on this one.Related content

O.K. Dave. I don't know who this guy is. But it's wonderful done. As an old fan of the Paul Hogan Show...in Germany the title was "Da lacht das KΓ€ngeruh" I'm curious of you have a painting of him too.
Best wishes, Jack

Ha ha ha... this is just perfect mad Dave.
Its the dimples on the chin that finish me off because it seems like you were looking at overweight bikini clad beauties for reference - thigh area obviously.
His expression seems to show he's not that impressed with the talent you found on the beach!

I did go nuts on his chin - not so much from any reference I had, but because my brush seemed to want to go there, and I like to follow my muse on these things!

I'd like it better if he was wearing a watermelon hat... but in spite of that, still a kickass pic!

Thanks! And agreed - everyone looks better with a watermelon hat! - its the must have fashion excessory of tomorrow. Nothing says style like fruit on your head, I say!

Agreed... if you're not wearing a watermelon hat.
You're so five minutes ago.

I think he pulled that jib when he was a child, probably with the wind blowing, been stuck with that expression ever since

Seeing this art of yours brought back a lot of happy memories watching this programme all those years ago, they were all great characters.
I do miss all those great British "sit-coms"
would be great if you get asked to a similar thing for Dads Army !!
great artwork by the way !

Dads Army would be a lot of fun - though you know I'm going to be singing the theme song in my head for the rest of the day now, dont you!
