Warm-up Sketches

Sunday, April 1st, 2012

After being either too ill or too busy to do any sketching for a while, I thought I’d have a try at doing some warm-up sketches before delving back into character designs for my next FutureQuake Press strip. I’m still trying to get the hang of sketching using only my Intuos tablet, but I’m not [...]

Sunday, October 16th, 2011

I’ve been doing a little bit of housekeeping on my site, and have now placed the links to my RedBubble store front and centre on the home page, along with samples of the artwork I currently have for sale.

Finally, something new…

Wednesday, August 31st, 2011

I’ve had to move my computer into a new room now that my daughter needs my old space, and I’ve not really had the time to do any drawing since her birth 5 months ago. My new location means that I don’t have space for a drawing board or a scanner either, so I’ve been [...]

Review of FutureQuake #17

Tuesday, June 21st, 2011

Following the birth of my beautiful daughter at the end of March, I rather forgot to pay attention to any coverage of the launch of FutureQuake #17, so I had completely overlooked this rather nice review by Chris Denton. In it, he has some very nice things to say about my artwork (which is always [...]

Getting it covered

Saturday, February 5th, 2011

I’ve been working fairly intensively on the cover artwork for my FutureQuake story, and it’s getting close to completion now. Just the background to paint, and a few tweaks to make to the character. Here’s a sample of the work in progress (I’ve just slapped in a masthead from a previous edition to help with [...]
