LONG FORM SPACECAT...
I've started working on big comics project, probably a graphic novel, starring MC Spacecat and DJ Tyrone. It's planned as a funny look at the history of Hip Hop, youth culture and growing up in the UK. I've just started writing/storyboarding the whole shebang to get a feel for the flow, then I'll start drawing properly in the New Year, tighten up the story, plug any holes and make it work!
It'll be in colour, so I'm testing out some colouring ideas in Photoshop... watch this space comic book fans!

Kitty Cards
Last summer, whilst on holiday on the Isle of Wight, my grandson and I came up with 'Kitty Cards', a funny trading card idea. We came up with about a hundred kitties, and I sketched quite a few, including 'Cthulhu Kitty', seen here.
Recently, my grandson brought the idea of doing Kitty Cards up again. I've laid out most of what I have dubbed the first wave of 14 cards, and five, including Cthulhu Kitty here, are done as finished digital artwork.
The original idea was to make a small amount of the cards myself to give out free at art shows and events to kids. Kids love free stuff and collecting, and it's also a good way of getting my art out there too. I'm looking into getting the cards produced properly and how to get packages made like old-fashioned bubble gum and card packs. It's amazing that in this high technology world we live in, that a little bit of card with some funky art on it can still grab people's attention and imagination. If anyone has contacts in the trading card business... please let me know!
I am genuinely having a blast putting these cards together. If you see me at shows and events, please ask me if I have any left, as I think they'll go fast!
