After a brief stint away, CCUK are back ready to take your orders. I'd like to thank all customers who have placed an order in the last couple of weeks for the perseverance and patience whilst we have been away.

In the searing Italian heatwave, we regret to be informed that the sponsored banger failed to make Rome after it collided with another vehicle on the motorway just past Florence. The car is a total wreck, however, more importantly (and amazingly) Nobody was injured in the chaos. They were kind enought to send pics. Very scary stuff!

Custom Cartoons UK are proud to announce we will be sponsoring a mark 1 Fiesta car for a banger rally in europe as of tomorrow. The rally is HOME2ROME and it will take place from Dover to Rome over a period of 5 days. Good luck for "Team RoadRunner" whom we are sponsoring.

Upon my usual search engine hunt for competition and the likes, I stumbled upon this really cool site for custom cartoons. It's pretty unique in the fact that I've never seen anything as original as this before. The website is called Rotten Toons. The link can be found here.



As you can see from Ty Lombardi's work here, his dark, haunting cartoons are awesome. He will design you a really cool custom cartoon for you to use as a tattoo amoungst other things.

I felt I had to give this site a mention as I feel Ty's work is absolutley brilliant. You can now find Rotten Toons on our links page.

Recently added to the celebrity section is Michael Scofield and Lincoln Burrows Of Prison Break. Actually Wentworth Miller and Dominic Purcell as the celebrity section is directed for real-life celebrities. Now that the series has come to an end, I though it would be cool to add a cartoon of Prison break.

Upon hearing about the sad death of the world greatest pop star Michael Jackson, as a childhood fan I thought I'd dedicate a cartoon in his memory. This can be found In the celebrity section too.

I recently saw Barack Obama on the news. Why, you ask? Because he swatted a fly. That's why! Nothing wrong with that is there? Well, according to animal rights there is! read the article here.

Don't get me wrong, I'm totally in favour of animal rights. I love animals. I have animals of my own. But please, a fly?.. A FLY? Condemning the worlds leader for swatting a fly just seems a little over the top to me. I thought it was kinda funny when he swatted it to be honest. It showed he was human, that's all. The video can be seen here.

Just thought I'd share that as I haven't updated for a while, and it just made me laugh because it was very silly. Remember people, respect the flys!
