  Today's offering: 6 August 2012
  I spent the day sorting through dad's original storyboards for Time Bandits... So many good pieces it was hard to choose what to share but here's a sprinkling of what I found...
  "Napoleon"
  "The Ogre & his wife"
  "The Time Bandits & Kevin caged"
  "Spinning cowboys"

  When I was 11 I picked up the Time Bandits book and saw the combination of script and Gilliam's sketches and I thought, oh! So that's how you make a movie: you write words and draw some comics and then it gets made. Of course, I missed out the "raise millions of dollars" part, but it still made me want to be a filmmaker! Tell him cheers!

  Incredible stuff! This site is such a wonderful idea, I've already recommended it, but forgot to comment before ;D In any case, thanks so much HDG, and please keep up the work.

  Not sure whether you'd be willing to offer slightly larger sized photos/scans of the work, Holly (I can understand the reasons for not doing so, however) - but if you can, it'd be very much appreciated.
  (Too many years spent as a vampire working in the VFX trade, often within darkened rooms, plays right buggery with one's eyesight - it's going to take about 20 attempts with the blasted CAPTCHA before this comment is posted - oh, technology, why do you hurt me so?)

  Just found your Blog, and I'm so glad I did! Your father's work was always my favorite part of the show, and I always asked myself, "How does he come up with that stuff?" Now I can see the process ... and I'm more impressed than ever. Any thought for putting it all together in a type of large coffee-table book? That's the kind of stuff you can just flip through over and over again. cheers!

  Time Bandits holds a place in my childhood garden of joys. Rare was it is indeed to end a film with evil, selfish, mean parents being the victims of their greedy consumption and love of toaster ovens. Your site is literally, in all ways all good. Thanks & best to you & yours.
