For a moment there I thought we were in trouble....

Now my Ghostbusters comic is finished I've moved onto the next piece in my project; Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Here are the two prep sketches I did, computerjiggered into a movie poster style picture. I'd have liked a nice tattered paper effect on it to make it look like a proper wild west cliche but I'm not sure how to do that. 

Oh well....Raindrops keep fallin' on my head.....

Busting makes me feel good.

This is something thats been wafting around in my brain box for a long time. Its the first piece I've done for my final year at college and I think its turned out really well, I'd go as far as to say its my best piece of work....And now that I've finished patting myself on the back...back to work. No rest for the wikkkid.

The Rehab Club...

These are characters I designed for "FREEK" an indie club night at Swindon's Rehab club in Old Town. I really enjoyed doing these, they came out really well and I gave my colouring and shadowing muscles (yes they're actual muscles, look it up) a workout. Oh and yeah that is the Breakfast Club poster. Those guys only met each other once, but it changed their lives forever...

FREEK OUT!

Mr. Funk, Hippidy Hopper, Miss Rawk, Drum Hero, and Indie Girl.

Actual memories of exciting things...

This is a two page story I drew for a contest in the Observer newspaper. It's a tale of seven year old James and the first time he got into trouble at school. And how it scarred him. Scarred him DEEP...

There's an Upside Down girl...

Never rub another man's rhubarb.

So I wanted to post something new everyday for 26 days but I've not finished this yet...So apologies to the four people that look at my blog but tomorrow's picture will be the finished Clown Prince Of Crime (tm). And if its not, I'll jam a pencil into my eye socket. For reals.

March Banks The Wonder Pig.

He's a cartoon character I made up (with help from my Uncle Nigel) when I was about 12. He's a pig thats also a super hero that solves jelly-based crimes.

Skelkon!

Zack & Miri Make A Porno...

The new film by Kevin Smith, which I loved and, like all movies that involve poop on faces, left me with a warm fuzzy feeling as I left the cinema.

PC Bob.

This is a comic strip for the "Bobby Club", a newsletter given out to school children by the Police to inform them about staying safe and to increase their brain power through the miracle of word searches. The power of this story has already been proven when my mum told me that she became quite upset when Bob the dog realizes he's lost... Powerful, powerful stuff.

I know my behavior can be...erratic sometimes...

THE Patrick Bateman a.k.a Christian "Batman Begins" Bale. 

Its hip to be square.

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaans!!!!

I wanted this to be professional, efficient, adult, co operative.
Not a lot to ask.
Alas, your Mr. Takagi did not see it that way so he won't be joining us for the rest of his life.

Rockin' the Wii...

Ghostbusters (in colour)

Let me tell you something... Busting makes me feel good....

...In a row?

I'm a big fan of Kevin Smith, as a film maker and maybe more as a speaker. His "Evening with..." dvds and Smodcast, the podcast he does every week with Scott Mosier are funny as hell and I listen to them a lot while I'm working. So why not draw the James-way and download some for yourself? Its Dr. Stayte approved!
