I am no Parlett expert (though would happily become one!) so take this with a pinch of salt, but as soon as I saw that horse I was shocked. RP's work stands out because he NEVER (to my limited knowledge) drew a character that looked wooden, or looked the same in two frames running. That is what mere mortal artists have to do, not our Reg. tolworthy
This advice from comicsuk forum I've found invaluable.

mind you horses are hard to draw...:)
Now here is Reg's work in the same comic Shiver and Shake 1973.
Reg is amazing!!!
The piano is shown from every different angle...even the back view!!!
The spooky hand is also different each time.love the way it runs along on its fingers..
The difference between the two...
Reg's work is soo 3D!!
Wonderful variety.
Try and put it into your own comic page drawing.
