I had the idea for Cock and Bull around New Years and since my family was out of town I was able to work a lot on it for a couple of weeks then. So , I thought I might show you a few of the very first sketches I did of the characters. They looked quite different, although it didn’t take too far into the drawing process of the actual strips until the characters started to shape up and then sort of fell into place (which you’ll be able to see if you start reading from the beginning of the archive.

Anyway, here’s what they looked like at first:
