Stil nothing new...


Still dont have anything new to show. Feeling a little vulnerable right now, vulnerable and hung over. Managed to lose my phone out in Derby, get seperated from my freinds and had to make my own way back to a mates house. For some reason this adventure took me 5 hours, with my freinds searching for me in the centre of town.

Heres another old peice i am still quite fond of. I found the original lencil drawing as well, which I scanned in and then lined in photoshop. I miss my tablet!
Looking at a Warden/Ranger apprenticeship in Derby, so fingers crossed on that front. I think once a get a job sorted out I'll start drawing again. Ironically I have loads of time to draw but I just cant motivate myself. Still reading a Song of Ice and Fire, about 100 pages into Dance with Dragons.

I'll continue updating with Star Wars stuff untill I can do something new. I need someone to work with really. I'm little more than a pencil monkey these days, without someone to tell me what to draw its a huge effort for me to think of something to do.

Here is a little banner I did for a TORWars featurette I did ( Linky! ) Just to show I do have a sense of humour...not much, but it's in there somewhere.

3 Mock comic pages

Here are the 3 comic pages that I did for the Hands of Darkness, I'm on hiatus from them at the moment while I sort a few things out in my life. Job, Car, House, ect.

Its called the Tales of Darkness and follws a fairly ordinary Sith Acolyte and her discovering of the Hands of Darkness. One of my biggest problems is I never complete anything! I doubt this will ever be finished as a full comic. But thems the breaks, I'm quite pleased with them really, they were more experiments than anything. Toying with the idea of a black and white comic I guess, messing about with a toneal photoshop technique in the last panel.






I saw a penny arcade comic which led me to beleive that the new series of Avatar is out. The Legend of Korra I beleive, as I am a pretty big nerdahol when it comes to kids cartoons I really enjoyed watching the Legend of Aang. I'm actually pretty stoked about watching the new series, though I may have to wait untill it comes out on DVD.


A feast of crows is turning out to be as excellent as the other books in a Song of Ice and Fire, starting reading it yesterday and only a few pages in (well 183!).

Trying to think of what I can actually do for my own little fantasy project. Maybe just a few character concepts to start. Keep your eyes peeled!

A little update from the past years drawing of star wars related absurdities. I need to try and get into drawing something new.

There are a few projects I'd love to work on. A fantasy story that I have been working on for a long long time with a freind of mine. The basic premise is, if The Lord of the Rings had reached it technological plateu during the late medieval period (in relation to our own history) then our world will have plateud during world war 1.

It would have all your a-typical fantasy ridiculousness, but grounded in the gritty reality of a world at war. I'll try and do some work on it over the next couple of days when I get some free time. Alot of my hours are taken up (since leaving college) either looking for a job or reading a Song of Ice and Fire. Got onto it from the HBO Game of thrones and I've been blasting through the books, very addictive. Wiki isnt healping though, I cant resist occasionally skipping forward to see what become sof my favorite characters, sometimes with disasterous implications. *Cough*Lord Tywin Lanister*Cough*
I've got a few sample comic pages I did with the SWTOR guild the Hands of Darkness, just to see if I could still do it. They turned out ok, so I might polish them up and post them here at some point.
