Barley Character Sketches….

Barley, the graphic novel series I’m working on is going really well. I’d spend every day on this if I could, it’s so much fun to draw. But with other commitments, it’s taking a while to put together.

These are just a few of the hundreds of other characters to appear in the novel… some will have bigger parts than others. Each and every character that will appear in the books has to be sketched and designed first, so rather than adding random characters in the backgrounds/crowds.. each has a clearly defined personality, style and reason for being there….. that’s just one of the reasons it’s taking me so long!

Swine Flu…

As ever the world is in turmoil, everyone is poor now thanks to all the money miraculously disappearing. Now on top of all that, everyone is at risk of catching a pig-cold and dying of swine flu. But.. you’ve gotta laugh!

LORBS so far…

One of my current projects is my web-comic ‘The League Of Really Bad Superheroes‘. With just one more day to go until the 4th installment of the comic strip I thought I’d post the three comics so far here. LORBS is a comic strip series I’ve had planned for quite a few years, but only recently got around to getting off the ground. Each week I’m adding new characters, biographies, pictures, newspapers and of course comic strips to the site….. when my regular work doesn’t get in the way. Anyway… LORBS so far…..

On-going Project…

I’ve been locked away in my studio working away on my new graphic novel. I’d previously been calling the novel ‘Teddies’… this was always a working title and I’m thinking it will now most likely be named after the main character. I’m not saying what his name is yet though… that’s a secret! This, along with three children’s books I’m curently working on will probably take up most of my time for the next three months or so.

Here’s the picture I’ve been working on,… as the hero stumbles upon an eerie and seemingly lifeless city. This particular picture is just a small part of one page… as I’ve mentioned before I’m really going to town on this book/comic which is why it’s taking me so long to put together.

New Graphic Novel…

I’ve been hidden away in my office/studio for the past few week, putting the pieces together for my new graphic novel. The story is something I wrote a couple of years ago, but never got around to drawing. Partly because of work, but mainly because I couldn’t decide on a ‘look’ for the novel. Well, I think I’ve got it.

I hope so anyway, because I’ve already drawn up a pretty good number of pages.Below are a few sample from the graphic novel so far. It’s probably going to be called ‘Barley’).

Kaliog… Childrens Book…

I’m working on all sorts of different things at the moment, including 2 new web comics (LORBS & Cat on the Moon), a couple of new animations, and several new children’s books.

One of the books I’ve been working on for a while is ‘Kaliog’… it’s been a bit of a pain freeing up enough time to spend on the book, but I’m getting there… slowly. This is the latest illustration from the book, which follows Tassia and Greg as they travel through a strange world inhabited by all sorts of spooky and scary beasts…
