New Things for Edinburgh II


Also hoping to be armed with these business card thingies so I can sweet talk people into going on my site without the actual talking bit. However, the harrowing words "best laid plans..." come to mind.

New Things for Edinburgh I



This is the set of four postcards of robots I mentioned. Sorry for the rubbish image quality. Praying our heroic printer Jonny can pull through and do them up for me so I won't have to shell out assloads of cash. The titles of the postcards (printed on the back) are, from left to right, top to bottom: Strange New World, It's The End of the World as We Know It (and I Feel Scared), Crumpet Timer & Greed of the Mechanical Man. I'll try to sell them fairly cheap in relation to how much printing costs. Watch this space.

Narc Illustration


I created this to go in the February issue of local music magazine Narc, it'll be coupled with a retrospective article on the band Crane. Have a wee gander, should be interesting to see it in print. It's free from RPM and places if anyone is even remotely interested...

Antho Launch Night... and that


The fourth issue of the Travelling Man comics group anthology is soon to be released. The issue is called You Will Have To Wait... And That and all stories are linked in one sub/super-liminal way to a variety of random objects that frequenters brought down one night. These items range from magic juggling balls, to a massager, to a magic eightball (which is responsible for our title). It's cracking stuff, from contributors old and new.

But most importantly, there will be a launch night, similar to the one for our last one. This is taking place at The Telegraph behind Newcastle Central Station on Tuesday Feb 3rd at 7:00pm. It will cost the general public £2, and they will receive a copy of the comic on entry, as well as a bunch of free cakes and sweets and the joy of watching live performances from Echo Ave. and The Stillwells.

Be there or be rhombus!

blogwhat?

First post and lots to talk about. I'm currently working on two sets of four postcards. One of robots and one of monsters. They will be available for purchase from my website (link to the left) and Etsy shop, as well as at this year's Zine-O-Rama in Edinburgh on 7th and 8th of February. I've also just finished one, possibly two, illustrations that will feature in the February issue of Narc magazine. I'll have pictoral updates on my real website as and when.
