(Non OW 'drawing') The last survivng digital copy of an original Bladewing picture!
 
I have here the only existing digital copy of an original Bladewing picture!! (The rest were all lost in a hard drive crash in 2000) All thanks to Mactus and that old computer I gave him! :D It's not one of the best ones I did, either. But still, it's better then nothing. Anyway, those who don't know what Bladewing is can just look at the picture and view how my MS Paint Skills were like before my hard drive crash in 2000 (Copy and Paste link!!!!):

More info: This picture dates back to the days when Slarnhill City's (the city the live in) only police force was Bladewing, Max and Zip. Bladewing and Zip used to be lovers back then, not brother and sister, which is why they have thier arms round each other. It's not one of the best ones that I drew because they're all dressed up smartly for a birthday party. They ushally wore causaul clothes or special high tech suits most of the time.
Oh well, reminds me of the old days. I suppose my modern Bladewing plot (with the super-high-tech space ship) is much better.

How they look now:

Ed - might be worth turning off the URL automatic parsing next time, as that way it'll be easier to copy/haste, and it shouldn't put the dots in the middle of the address.

For those having trouble with copying it (as I know SOMEone will, there's always someone out there who doesn't get it...):

Looking rather more waspish in that one... (Bit like the one I did. ;) )

Who are all the little black and red ant blokes in the background, just "others" or are they an actual species (No, I didn't mean "what are all their names", before you ask... ;))

Two species of Ant: Red Ant and Black Ant. They used to make up most of the population of Slarnhill City before I changed everything.
Thanks for doing the link thing there, BTW. Is it possible to do that and have an image in the same post?

Yes, you can put an image in the same post if you turn off URL parsing (well, certainly if you use HTML like I have in this post, and I guess vBB tags would work the same) - all that does is put the vBB tags on either end of the URL, so far as I can tell, and shortens the URL so it's not so horribly big (in the case of PI URLs).

As... (the URL is just a random PI one, nothing important)
