Wanna ride?



It's Monday, and I was waiting for a new table being delivered but managed to miss it. This facilitated drawing random pictures and I grew to like this one, so coloured in and hey presto. Another potential print or postcard.

Mighty Arsehole!


After scribbling away with a particular gel pen type of thing I have realised they are THE GREATEST THING EVER. Might have to sway away from the fineliners for a little while. Coloured in Photoshop. Maybe releasing this as a print as well.

REVIEW: Pictoplasma Character Compendium


I have a deep fascination with collecting numerous reading materials to do with art, mainly illustration / graphics / digital art and a few months ago I was gutted to hear of the news that the Pictoplasma Character Encyclopaedia had sold out. This book looked the bees knees and the only way I could get a copy is spend nearly £200 on Amazon. Not for me. However, Pictoplasma have released The Character Compendium which is an update of sorts, and I just couldn't help myself. It may seems a little pricy at £30 or so but believe me, if you're interested in contemporary art, illustration, character design or graphics then this book is worth every penny, and a revelation for all lovers of monsters, ghouls, freaks, oddities, creatures and crazed human beings. It's (nearly) 400 full-colour pages are full to the brim of wonderful characters, I flick through this book every few days without fail. I have become a fan of many new designers and illustrators thanks to this book. The exterior itself is pretty cool with characters embossed into the cover, and it's a wonderful size, not too big or cumbersome when reading through. The in-built bookmark is a nice plus as well. Thoroughly recommended!
