Shirt Tail Stompers

 

I designed this album for the splendid band 'The Shirt Tail Stompers'. Came out nice I think. They are selling copies at gigs now. It sounds great. They are on top form. I really enjoyed working on this.

re-re-designing website

I'm sure it won't be the last re-design I do. I still need to decide on a name too. Sadly Paper Sails isn't avaliable . . . 

doodle

Just a doodle that got a bit over worked.

Murder

Another murderous mystery unraveled over on the Sexton Blake blog! ->>>

About Me

I think 'aboutme.com' is no doubt another ridiculous phenomenon like twitter (which I still refuse to join)  but thought I ought to register to secure my name. I was concerned about this because as I am trying to set up my website and realized I couldn't have Paper Sails as a url. I figured I'd get in there quick in future . . . lol

Happy Engagement

A small congratulations piece for my great friends Ian and Jo

Super Ruth

I did this for a friends leaving work card. It was a very quick reworking of an editorial piece I did for her recently. I'll show you that when I get a copy of the magazine to scan. Until then all the best for the future Ruth and thanks for having faith in me.

Sexton Blake

I am totally focused on the Sexton Blake comic right now. Looking to make big progress over the next month. Stay tuned for the next thrilling post over at the Sexton Blake blog >>>

Designing my website . . .

Maybe something like this

Bring on Spring

 

This links to more Shogun 2 stuff - out March 15th btw.

Hi. It's been ages. Busy time. I have resigned my job to go freelance, moved, done a magazine illustration (I hope to be able to show that by the end of March) and so many other things . . . 

Still trying to sort out what to do with this. Here is an alternate cover. . . 

. . . more on this later . . . 

 . . . some roughs.

Red Riding Hood - Finals

All done with this I think. Now I need to see about getting it printed as a concertina book. I looked into it today and finding a printer to print large enough, two sided and on nice paper is going to be tricky. Any feed back on this project or assistance in the printing knowledge department would be very gratefully received. 

Cover?

Perhaps just something very simple. Front on the right of course.

End Paper Pattern

I'm thinking of printing this on the reverse of the strip. Undecided.

Perhaps this is better

Where does the time go, Mr wolf?

Hello out there. I have been trying to find time to get this 'Red Riding Hood' thing finished for ages but the days just seem to fly by. Made some time this evening finally and I'm almost there now. Just one panel left to tidy up. Then there is the cover and printing to sort out of course . . .  and I really should have my nose to the grindstone with the Sexton Blake book but there probably won't be much time for that until March.

New Year, new ideas

This is an early mock up for a new project. The illustrations are still very rough but so far I am happy with this. Shows promise. More on this soon.

Blimey!!!

Merry Christmas everyone.
