Voila! The second “Star Wars Typography” work has arrived!

There could be a whole series of these, if the kinks can be worked out. Ackbarpography is doing well, being available to buy from SplitReason and all. There’s this one. Princess Leia is upcoming… sadly, she’s looking mostly dead right now!

Ghostbusters, Monkeys and Smoking Jackets

Did you think you’d see those three things together this morning?

Recently I joined a small group of candidates, applying to illustrate an “epic poem”. The ringmaster sent each of us an excerpt, requesting a couple of sample images in return. Here are my two submissions:

Old Egon (thumb)

Suave Monkey (thumb)

Why you’re seeing them now? Well, the email I received last night states that I didn’t get the contract. At least that means these images are totally my property.

The spitting image

Been dabbling with a new concept for this site. In the footer, there’s currently this little fella:

Not the Twinkie Cowboy

This rough sketch of a figure is currently too much like Twinkie‘s cowboy mascot to get away with. The cowboy without any clothes on, but still.

I changed him to green, which suddenly made him look like Gumby.

If this concept goes any further, then this guy will need a re-think to avoid any copyright infringement!

3,000 DA views!

Hey hey! My DeviantArt account just ticked over 3,000 pageviews this morning!

I had been preparing a special little comic to mark the occasion, but by the time it was finished the count read 3,007. It’s still good – here’s to 4,000!

If you’re asking “Who’s that Short Round accompanying your handsome self on the hill?” it’s my old character Super Turnip: He hasn’t been in anything for a while.

A.K.A. “Streets of Lunch”.

Here’s my latest entry into the SplitReason voting pool… can you guess the video game reference?

Streets of Rage, the old Mega Drive beat-em-up videogame. All the items pictured are either health pickups or weapons available in the game – The tagline for this image is “all I need is a fork”.
