So I'm off to a Lovecraft Fest?

  Hello All.

 Yep you read the title correctly.  My far better half has conned me into going to sell my wares at a horror festival somewhere. I'm currently sketching out ideas in my sketchpad while I wait urgent bike repairs that will get me both new paper and photocopies. I'm trying to incorperate my murder mystery at a haunted manor into the whole thing. Who knows but I'm aware I won't sell anything but it'll be a fun experience as I'll be with my wonderful K.

 Page 2 of Abyssal Albion currently on Kickstarter.

Mushroom madness!

 Hello all.

 So Murf's my sisters beautiful boy who's been limping for a few days and has cost my sister untold worry and money is limping because he's basically stubbed his toe??? Relief all round.

 I got to see my utterly wonderful K lose her beautiful mind over a bunch of mushrooms that we found. I suspect she'll go and nab them later on under cover of darkness.

 I drew this a little while ago and wanted to show you.

 Have a great day.

Crikey! I'm annoyed.

  Evening all.

 Just had a rubbish chat with a long time client who has ****ed me right off! I was trying to get some art to him for the latest kickstarter (work I wouldn't be paid for, for months) and there was laptop nonsense which meant I lost my latest art for his project and to top it off he told a mate he could do the cover!!

 LFC won. Other than that it's been a quiet day, I've had fleeting glimpses of the lovely K who's been terribly busy.

 I laughed at the boxing result, not all MMA lads and lasses are crap boxers.

 Have a super evening.

Homemade dog ice-cream

  Hello all.

  So as the title suggests I tried making some dog ice cream as it was rather hot this morning. Real strawberries and a massive tub of natural yoghurt and some gentle nudges and it was a success!

  Honey is enjoying having Lil's back and is rarely letting her out of her sight.

 I've just finished the page below and I quite like it, not sure what the client will think but hey ho.

 Have a super day.

 My mate Rob has just made me laugh about a video I sent him.

The return of Lil's 2

  Morning all!

 Yep Lil's has returned to stay for a few days, mainly because her dad's place doesn't have WiFi or a furry loon called Honey. Whatever the reason for her return it's nice to have the lass back.

 We had a lovely wander this morning, it was a peaceful couple of hours.

 Eight days before the return of the ever so delightful K.

 Have a great day.

Lil's has returned!

  Hello all.

 My beautiful K's eldest is floating around and the furry loon went wild when she saw her. It was quite a heart  warming scene.

 The above mentioned beautiful K is off on a road trip so who knows when I'll get to hear from her again.

 I've had a productive day and managed to get another page for FoG done. I do love messing with the perspective in this comic.

 Anyway, I need to walk the ginger hooch and then snuggle in for the night.

 Have a great day!

A quiet morning

 Hello all.

 We had a nice stroll in the sunshine this morning, chatted with no one which was a lovely change. I did a spot of mowing, a load of washing and general faffing And I finished the below page from CRIMSISTERS #3. I'm loving using the greys to inform the scale of the pages.

 Anyway, I hope you have a wonderful day.

Sprocket rolls in **** again!

 Evening all.

 We bumped into the usual crowd this morning the highlight being sprocket being told off by Olivia for rolling once again in poo. I laughed and laughed.

 Anyway its been a fairly univentful day for me (the ever so wonderful K has had a different sort of day), Honey and I have just mooched around and I've been doing a page for T using sketchbook pro. The page turned nice and T liked it so a good day all round!

 Here's said page.

 Have a great day.

More missing K and dog walks

  Evening all.

  It's been a day of sunshine, dog walks and doodling. I'm currently sat on the sofa watching YouTube crap while the ginger loon eats her nightly chew stick.

  The ever so wonderful K is still in America and eating lovely hot curry without me, stinker.

  Anyway here's a page I enjoyed doing today.

I completely forgot this.

  Hello again.

  I wanted to show this because I quite like it. It's an idea for the upcoming comic with Hobnob boy (Rob detached a retina reaching for a pack of hobnobs!!).

 It's a doodle in my A5 walk around sketchpad.

Its a Kit Kat Tuesday

 Hello All.

Sorry for the lack of updates but I've been busy walking the dog and getting the hang of the new digital tablet.

 The image below is done using Sketchbook Pro on my x-pen and I'm starting to really love the experience. I had a slight nightmare yesterday when nothing worked which was quite scary.

 Anyway one dog walk down, Honey hung out with three of her chums this morning and seemed to have a great time - I'm knackered.

 I'll be uploading a lot more in the coming weeks.

 Have a great day.

Sat' doodling

  Morning all.

 Here's a mock up for a CRIMSISTERS #2 page which I did last night. I drew it full page and on several layers, it was as quick as my doodles on paper. I'm really starting to enjoy using the tablet, I sketch out all my pages in red pencil and that has carried over to the digital pages (yep it's red, very red).

 Had a lovely wander with Honey this morning and bumped into the lady whose dogs we spent last week walking AND then I bumped into Denise who gave me a pack of Kit Kats for helping her walk said dogs.

 Right I'm off to finish off last nights doodles for a meeting with T this evening.

 My beautiful K is finally settling into life back with her family and seems to have taken another dog under her wing I haven't told Honey for fear of heartbreak.

 Have a fantastic day!

Big walk this morning

  Hello all!

  The hooch and I had a rather lovely stroll this morning, we didn't see anyone which is sometimes  just what we need.

  This is another page done using sketchbook pro amongst pencils, pens and paper. I'm excited to try and figure everything out computer wise, I have a sample version of clip studio which I need to get started on learning how to use it.

 So the ever so beautiful K seemed to have a splendid day yesterday with her family, miss the stinker!

 Have a great day.

Hello all

  Afternoon all.

 So my delightful K has finally landed back home to spend the summer with her family after a nightmare of a journey. So Honey and I are just miserable and mooching around the fields and house.

 Anyway here's a fully digital page, I still feel its a strange way to work but I'm going to give it a go. There's still loads of scraps of paper being scanned and then digitally inked over. Still waiting to hear from the client but hopefully he likes it. I think that the inks are slightly heavy but I'm quite happy with it.

 Enjoy a wonderful day.

Great start to the week

  Hello all!

  So I had to start and draw more pages for a newish project that with one thing and another has been left sitting for a few weeks. Anyway I tried sketching things out in Sketchbook Pro and I have to say I loved doing the perspective doodles which have been killing me, then adding other panels on top. 

 I'll ink it by hand but I think this will help me out with time and speed, quick roughs BOOM there you go.

 Uh oh looks like rain and we're helping walk three loons in the morning.

 Have a great day

Morning all!

  Morning all.

 It's a lazy Sunday morning for me followed by working on a couple of projects. The beautiful K had the fan blasting all night so I haven't had a great nights sleep so I'll start slow today.

 I hope you have a fantastic day doing the things that you want to do.

 Have fun.

It's lay in Friday!

 Morning all.

 It's going to be a lazy sort of day, I'm finishing off a CRIMSISTERS #2 page and changing two other pages for a different project and I'll be eating Kit Kats!

 Have a wonderful day.
