Found this file from 9 years ago on my computer, called Coppice Beetle. I wonder whete i was going with it? There were a couple more drawings, a side and front profile of the plane. I think he harvested something with that long sickle and hauled to market with the plane and got blown of course and lost. Anyways i stuck a few from the file together see what you guys make of it.
For those that come here and like what I do, you will enjoy what Adam de Souza is doin’ in Blind Alley. He really captures a time and place, a melancholy, yet hopeful world with a touch of nostalgia for childhood. I just discovered this strip, let me know if you like it too.
The day has come, i have a strip in a paper. I have been drawing, and submitting multiple strips to our local biweekly news institute the esteemed Granite Balloon and today the first one saw print.
Hooray !
The only thing I picked up this past weekend at TCAF was this beautiful comic by Jon Berg, SKAB.
The art alone is worth the look, but the world which we have only had a peak at is intriguing and makes you clamour for more. It’s been awhile since i have mentioned a comic or artist and this one i really felt deserves some support. If you like Fantasy, great action and depth go and read the first issue online. Jon Berg handles action and dialogue with ease and lets the reader know he trusts you to follow him where he takes you. Looking forward to more.
..and some fan art by me.
You may read that title and thought, I hope some checks his grammar, and someone will don’t worry. Also you may have seen me mention my desire to illustrate books in the past, like the hobbit. Realizing that likely will not happen i decided to write my own middle grade fantasy book just so i could illustrate it. I started planning the book a year ago in January and begun writing in March. I have really been enjoying it and over 33000 words in. I hit a few walls writing some scenes and i lapsed in my output in the fall. However recently i have been in a groove and didnt want to break my stride so that is why i have been publishing old strips.
Any other writers come and visit this site, i would like to hear from you and encourage you.
Merry Christmas everyone, sorry i missed this week, but i will have extra time next week and post a couple. Here is a bad limerick, with bad rythem till i draw a new strip . In honour of my local proveyor of cheese.
