Thanks for posting a link to it. Shame that they didn't call her MRS Peel though. I always thought the fact that she was a MRS (and un-"involved" with her crime-fighting partner)was one of the charms of the show..

I love your drawing! I understand the "magic". I got swept into the charm of the show when i was researching for an art show i had coming up. I got hooked on those Avenger's episodes. If you want to check out the show online, just go to http://www.lunarboygallery.com/Artists/Catalog+art+by+Ben+Burch.php Let me know what you think of my Emma Peel painting. (I noticed they got the title wrong on the site). Anyway I love the drawing you did. Yeah! I love your drawing! I understand the “magic”.

I was trying to do a likeness of the CHARACTER rather than the actress but a woman in a catsuit has become a pretty generic image over the years, so in the end I tried to put a little Diana Rigg in there too. I'd like to do some more...</p> <p>John>> Well, there certainly have been a TON of catsuit-wearing babe characters since her, and I have to admit to liking a LOT of them (what's not to like?) but she is my all time fave... </p> <p>Uma Thurman <b>looked</b> OK too.... but she didn't seem to be the same character to me. It is too bad that the 1998 FILM version of the Avengers was such a dud, although I can see that it would be very hard to do a good version. Apart from the difficulty of casting actors to match the originals, getting the tone right would be very hard... especially in a post AUSTIN POWERS world.</p> Paul>> I am glad that you liked the drawing.
