Ted! That nose! Those knees, that pinstriped vest!

The LETTERING!

What a fantastic piece! This is something special indeed.

Those jowls. ;-)

Really, Ted, you have captured Hilaire at his best--the English bulldog defending the Faith.

Very good--I love the textures you evoke! And ditto on the lettering.

By the way--a while ago I came across some recordings of Belloc. To my surprise, he had a high tenor voice. I had been expecting a gruff baritone, based on his appearance.
