Old doodles 2
Hello all
So its a bright and sunny start to the day which is nice. The gal and I had a quiet but nice wander this morning and had a lovely chat with the ever so beautiful K with a slightly muddy H in between us.
Anyway I'm working on something I don't like and I have loads of old doodles I may or may not have posted before so I may as well do a doodle dump.
My la sis is heading out on a test run today so fingers crossed that nothing breaks, tears, or ends in tears!!
Have a great day.

Sunny start to the day
Morning all.
I managed to get up and about after a restless night with some new and delightfully painful knee pain! We managed to swerve a meeting with a neighbour and instead met a dog whom Honey utterly hates, so that was terrifying.
I'm thinking of opening up a store for my doodles, any thoughts?

Another train doodle
Hello all.
So I've spent a couple of hours with some chums chatting shit and looking at comics. M just bought his train ticket and then realised that there were no trains running (except mine) so decided to get a taxi home. He got home only to realise he was going back to town later that evening so could have happily stayed with R and chatted some more (we rarely all meet up anymore).
Anyway a solid afternoon spent in good company.

Train doodle
Hello all.
It's been a minute of missed work opportunities and the usual household mayhem. K is still ever so glamourous and at the centre of the chaos closely followed by the girls.
There will be more doodles as the month ambles to a close.
Hope you've all had a lovely day.

What a lovely day!
Hello all.
I hope everyone had a splendid Easter weekend with friends and family. I've had a lovely day first with the ginger loon in the rain and this afternoon with my beautiful K wandering around her favourite charity shop and a chatty car ride back.
I also had a nap which was the best.
Not sure I ever posted this image but if I have forgive me.
Have a great day.

It's been a lazy day so far
Hello all.
As I attempt to finish off a comic this weekend I looked through it and it's close enough for me to take a day off (although the day isn't over yet and I may still get the itch to mess around some more). I've been watching a lot of digital painting videos and while I'm excited to have a proper go my tiny attempts have been rubbish so I'll need a lot more time and practice.
My la sis passed her animal feed exam today so a huge congratulations to her! What a star.
The ever wonderful K took the furry beast this morning so it'll be me in a little while.
Here's a doodle I've just done to try and work in a digital painterly way.
Have a super easter!

It's been 6 Years!
Hello all.
So my wonderful K and I have been together 6 whole years today!! She of course forgot and I of course am skint so we shared a cuddle and a smile and cracked on with our day.
The below doodle is another sketchbook drawing that got out of hand but may or may not have given me an idea for a murder mystery in a haunted mansion.
Honey and I enjoyed a very quiet wander this morning after seeing a bunch of her mates yesterday, and we made it back just before the rain came down, so an added bonus - yay!
Have a super day.

It's a two dog walk day
Hello all.
This morning we bumped into the naughty boys and Otto and Archie! So the very first two owners to allow me to unleash the ginger beast onto their dogs. It's always nice seeing different people out and about with their furry hooligans.
I'm still recovering from this stinky cold and not getting much work done, but I am enjoying playing with the lovely latest sketchpad. Snippet below. (I'll try and get a better pic)
Have a super evening.

Still not great (boo)
Morning all.
So I'm in pain everywhere and I kept my darling K awake with my relentless coughing last night. As an apology I got up and took the furry hooligan out for a wander while my K got some much needed sleep.
Here's a short vid of some pages that I drew for a comic, the writer had asked if I had kept the art as he wanted to buy some.
Have a super day!

It's the start to a new week!
Hello all.
So the ginger stinker and I went for a short walk as she began limping again last night. LFC (the mighty) lost to the scum last night which was distressing to say the least.
I took this for a client yesterday.
Have a super start to the week.

Comics day!
Hello all.
I finally got my hands on a physical copy of the Dylan dog/Batman crossover and it look fantastic!
Here's a doodle I did last night.
Have a great day.

Rainy Tuesday
Hello all.
I got back just before it started chucking it down and I'm delighted about that, however I'm out of chocolate so I'll need to head out at some point for more.
Listening to Black Soul Horde which is always a Lovecraftian delight.
I had to draw for a client today and I wanted to get as much of it out of the way as quickly as possible. The result of the main drawing is below, I added the hazy b/g at the last minute and I'll be sending it to the client with and with out it.
Hope you have a super day.

The lass is back!!
Hello all
Yes you read the title correctly, my beautiful K has returned with tales of wonder and Spanish mystique.
I for one am delighted she's returned but none were happier than the her ginger loon who didn't leave her side all night (well okay she joined me for a Murdock mystries but thats it).
Anyway here's a cleaned up version of yesterdays sketch with an added tash for good measure!
Have a great day.

Yes they can!
Hello all.
So the wonderful K returns home tomorrow (assuming they let her back in the country that is), so we're both enjoying a quiet night. I'm off to cook a pizza (from frozen) and watch some tat with my own ginger lunatic.
Drew this up for a client and I'm happy enough with it (for now),
Have a great evening.

Art Bell with Bob Lazar
Morning all
Listening to a conversation between the above.
Here's another doodle from last night.
Still missing the lass.

Mi amour is in Spain
Morning all.
So I have a day of doodling today and it promises to be eventful.
The beautiful K woke up in Spain and I woke up in a small hamlet with a limpy dog that needed a wander. We also bumped into an energetic Snoops, so I'm expecting more gangster limps later on today.
I did the doodles last night while missing the ever so lovely K.
Sigh.

A short walk this morning (boo)
Morning all.
As Honey has hurt her paw (didn't stop her from chasing a rabbit this morning) we just wandered round the field outside the house. I've climbed back into bed and the ginger loon is getting involved in early morning adventures with her mam.
I have to try and doodle a background this morning and see if it looks good. grumble grumble.
Have a great day.

Sheep are in the fields
Hello all.
Just as the ginger limper seems to have injured herself again the bottom field has once more became a sheep enclosure. But as we're on strictly short walk (or we get told off), it's not really an issue at the moment. Nice to see them again.
My ever so glamourous K flies off to a writers con in Spain tomorrow and I'm gutted not to be going with her. Still I bet she has a wonderful time and hopefully meets loads of nice people and makes loads of contacts.
Have a lovely day

New project 2
Hello again.
This is the second image from the new comic and I'm happy showing it as it's missing a couple of panels. It took forever to get the background to look even halfway decent and even now I'm not 100% sure it works.
I'll certainly miss the beautiful one while she's away.
Oh and I've hurt my arm playing with the stinky kettlebell!!
Honey's limping again. Sigh.
Have a wonderful day.

New project 1
Hello all.
The next couple of posts are to do with a new project that I'm working on.
The beautiful one flies off tomorrow leaving me with a limpy gal and two grumpy teens!!
Anyway I hope you like the posts.

We met the naughty boys AND snoops!
Hello all.
It was a dog walk for the ages, we haven't seen the naughty boys for weeks and with Honey on a slightly restricted walking routine I didn't think we would. But then emerging from the frosty mist barking like the world was on fire her two lunatic mates hurtled into view, it was a splendid reunion.
Oh and we met snoops.
Have a great day.

I should point out
Evening all.
I need to point out that my darling K did the grey tones for the last couple of posts. She sprinkles a whole bunch of magic dust on my grotty inks. She pulled the whole project together, she's terribly talented and ever so pretty.
Have a great day.

A day full of drawing
Hello all.
I spent an hour or so drawing a dragon this evening and trying to make some headway with another page.
I met the ever so glam K at the church and went for a dog wander and to get some wood.
Hope you've had a super day.

Little wing
Hello again.
I was forced to doodle in a different room and because I didn't plan ahead and took nothing with me I used a scrap of paper and an orange pen to doodle (it was oddly relaxing).
Anyway have a great day.

On horseback they carried thunder
Hello all.
I really like the background image (more than the figure in the front). I need to play with layers more and push what I can do with foreground and background. Its frustrating but fun.
Have a super day.

Eclipse
Hello all
I'm not sure where this is going but I'm having fun working on it even if it doesn't get finished.
Enjoy a splendid day.

Brain damage
Hello all
I enjoyed working on this page, it's still not quite there but I'm moving in the right direction (I think)
Have a great day!

Not sure about the greys!
Afternoon all.
Here's a couple of panels from a comic I'm working on and I have to say nothing works! Grumble grumble.
Have a super day.
