As you say, he clearly loved drawing Cheeky - that affection shines through every page.<br /><br />Thanks for your kind comment about the blog.Niblethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09073399687897131919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8214345292716209353.post-31906025531325226072021-01-31T17:16:33.675+00:002021-01-31T17:16:33.675+00:00My sympathies to you and your family, Gary.My sympathies to you and your family, Gary.Niblethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09073399687897131919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8214345292716209353.post-38762419307536422672021-01-30T21:13:15.868+00:002021-01-30T21:13:15.868+00:00Thanks so much for the kind words,Gary (Frank'...Thanks so much for the kind words,Gary (Frank's Son)Gary McDiarmidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01387029109013475691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8214345292716209353.post-47844835879432418802021-01-30T21:02:02.930+00:002021-01-30T21:02:02.930+00:00Hi Niblet
This is what I wrote on my Frank fansit...Hi Niblet<br /><br />This is what I wrote on my Frank fansite on facebook<br />Thinking and praying for Frank's family..<br />His comic work especially Cheeky makes me laugh out loud..kind of the two ronnies...naughty seaside postcards type humour.. which I love..<br />Has an adult I can see he really enjoyed drawing and adding extra jokes..which give it another layer.. His comic art works for all ages and that is a good thing.. <br />Love the energy and freedom of his art line.. the comic outer panels in Cheeky are also joining in the fun.. But you could see Frank could draw very well... and its amazing how he made each character different..especially looking at Cheeky and the different characters..very hard to do... I'm glad I've done this fansite to him.. he deserves it.. Thanks Frank for all your amazing comic art... hopefully Rebellion will do a book one day.. Peter Gray.<br /><br />Thanks Niblet for this brilliant blog you've done and research..a real tribute to Frank.Peter Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02932925408386855040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8214345292716209353.post-12224982613423211912021-01-30T17:26:58.095+00:002021-01-30T17:26:58.095+00:00All friends of Cheeky are mourning the loss of a g...All friends of Cheeky are mourning the loss of a great talent.Niblethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09073399687897131919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8214345292716209353.post-91055550055638492212021-01-29T22:46:21.514+00:002021-01-29T22:46:21.514+00:00I am saddened by the loss of the legendary Frank, ...I am saddened by the loss of the legendary Frank, it goes without saying that he was a major influence in my life and I have one of his original drawings on my hobby room wall.
