Description
Was asked to do a illustration for the "Battle of Britain" Breakdance qualifier being held at Elbow Rooms, Leeds on the 22nd this month (come on down if you live in the area, will be a blast!), winning breakers will go onto the finals.Decided to go for a World War 2 style design for this, was fun drawing Churchill with a ghetto blaster, i think he'd of approved...
This was a pretty tight deadline which ment a couple of sleepness nights for me, working on it from 11pm through to 7-8am tuesday and wednesday.
Theres no text on this yet as someone else is handling that side of things, i just did the pic.
Hope you like!

Churchill seems to be an Oxnard hip-hop and old school oldies just like his friends, Peter Pan ,Wendy & her daughter, Jane. afan of Art Laboe.

Never thought I'd see Churchill doing anything cooler than posing with a tommy gun. Boy was I wrong.
