Boo Cook has also produced a stunning cover for "Something Wicked" another futurequakepress publication.

Forty-Five



If anyone hasnt picked up Andi Ewingtons "45", I suggest you do, its a great read, very accessible and jammed pack full of great art, a lot of 2000ad artist's in there, Oh and i got to do a page too

"Forty-Five is a series of Superhero interviews documented by James Stanley. As a soon-to-be father, James wants to find out what lies in store for his family if his unborn child turns out to have a Superpower. Forty-Five features Forty-Five different industry artists, all having just one page to capture the essence of each interview.
I hope you'll join James on his quest to learn from the gifted few that fly above our cities.
A.Ewington"

necrophim...close ups













Im battleing with detail in my work,,,,i think the zoom in photoshop maybe my down fall.... a bad habit i need to stop. I cant help doing it....zooming in that is.
Im working on pages that will never be seen at the size i draw them, and so much gets lost when in print...all those details become gray blobs...must stop....learn to pull out and not get so caught up.

Nothing to show really



Hi, been a bit busy. Not even sure if I can say what im doing...
So just to keep the blog going, i drafted in my aprentice, my 6 year old son to fill the gap..

never been inked before







A good friend of mine Ashly Sanders has taken the time to ink some of my dredd pencils, and a fine job he has done....I have never been inked by another artist before, great to see how others adapt the pencil to ink
check out more over at his blog..
Some sharp 2000ad fans might remember Ashleys work for Judge Dredd "lawman of the future". Where he got to draw Missionary Man in the style of the movie universe

right...linking never works for me....dont know why...
