Also, I'm now script editor for Tales of the... and The Sleepless Phoenix.

I should have told you that. I apologise.

Surgical sketching

Good news if you hadn't heard it. Actually, it's pretty good even if you had. Kronos City has found a new home at Time Bomb Comics (you can read about it here, at the Kronos City blog, with a line drawing that I did of all the Kronos City leads, which I', pretty pleased with. I'll be interspersing updating my own blog with the Kronos City one.

But back to my solo stuff, which this week takes the form of my Drawing London on Location biweekly excursion. This weekend was to the Hunterian Museum of Surgery, a lovely place filled with pickled walrus and human face. I enjoyed this one a lot. I took a lot of the different items on display and made a composite sketch. The real place is much cleaner and has no blood stains.

The face on the back wall of the image is a replica of the death mask of Isaac Newton. Nifty.

 

The second piece of the day is from the park across the road from the museum, which, I think, is Lincoln Inn Fields. In this picture you will see a bandstand, a made-up lady (as in from my head, not covered in garish face paint) and lots of squiggles.

Comics Miscellany

A couple of comics themed pieces this week. This is a sketch of Karl and Azure from Kronos City, which has been knocking about my sketchbook for a month or two. I'm pretty pleased with it, particularly with Karl.

This next one I drew after reading some of Peter David's X-Factor, which is a good read. It's been pointed out that Jamie looks like me in this picture. I'm not sure what that says about my inner workings.

I shall be at BICS this weekend. I'll tell you about it afterwards, I'm sure.

Pigs in love. The geese are just friends.

As part of my drawing on location group, we went out last weekend to Hackney Farm and Victoria Park. Behold the results.
