M.O.D Make Cut backs

Here is my cartoon on the situation regarding the MOD making fatal cutbacks that end in British soldiers dying. I wanted to have a real comic like feel to the cartoon, (see collage, Quantum of Solace) I also wanted to really push the fact that the US equipment is better than ours. So the overtly ridiculous image of the guy pedaling is how i achieved this.

Below you can see the 5 collages that i created to give myself ideas for my cartoons. I wanted to choose a breadth of topics, not just those that revolved around the obvious.
