Project Luna: 1947

Here's a sneak preview of page 6 of Project Luna - Only 82 more to go! Loving every minute of it though.

Futurequake

Also out now! Issue 12 of Futurequake, featuring the "ASBO Aliens" story by Martin "Project Luna" Hayes and myself. Here's a taster:

KiCK! Finished pages

Here is a look at the (unlettered) pages of the Michael Owen strip from Kick! that is on sale now! I've now finished the second one, and should have the script for the third in a few days. All artwork is copyright (c) Attic Media Network 2009.

SUPER STRIKERS!

Out in all good (UK) newsagents, supermarkets etc, now! Rush out and buy it for my two pages alone!



I am minutes away from finishing the next KiCK! strip as well - this time it's about Wayne Rooney... one panel has been crowd-scene hell, but it's almost done :-) I'll put up some full pages soon.

In other news, I've managed another page of Luna, and our main alien bad guys have officially been designed...

KiCK!

Long time no blog!

Apologies for my absence, I've been knee-deep in work... I've just got my grubby fingers on a new gig - drawing a football strip for KiCK! magazine (aimed at 6 to 12 year olds). It's been a lot of work, but surprisingly fun, too. The editor has been fantastic, sending through a tonne of good ref photos and links to youtube clips of the actual match I've been drawing. These have been invaluable, as they're very keen to get the players' likenesses spot-on. Below is a panel; once it's published (early next month) I'll put the pages up here.

I now have another strip to draw for the good people at Manitowoc, and then I can get back into Project Luna again.

In other news, I'm now seeing a Chiropractor twice a week to sort out my back pain - so far it seems to be working!

Blast Off!

Project: Luna 1947 is GO!

I have drawn and coloured 3 pages, we have officially started... only 85 more to go (but I'm trying not to think about that!) Here are a few teaser panels - I don't want to post up any full pages for fear of giving too much away.

Where Evils Dare

Unfortunately I won't be continuing with the pitch for Where Evils Dare written by Tony Lee, because of my commitment to Project: Luna 1947. Tony needs to crack on with the project and I have 88 pages to draw and colour for Luna, so Stefano Martino (who has worked with Tony on Doctor Who: The Forgotten) will be taking over on art duties. I'm sure he'll do an awesome job, so look out for it!!

Above are the first two pages I managed to do - I'm particularly happy with the mad splash page, great fun. Be sure to check it out, kids!

Project Luna: 1947

I'm really happy to be able to announce a forthcoming graphic novel I'll be drawing and colouring for Markosia!

Project Luna: 1947 will be an 88-page graphic novel written by Martin Hayes, who I worked with recently on the "Intergalactic Bank-Robbing Aliens" story for Futurequake. We've signed the contracts and we're ready to rock - above is my first attempt at the main characters in colour. This is basically a mock-cover, and a good way for me to get a feel for the characters I'll be drawing (and the various spaceships, spacesuits etc...)

I won't give away too much of the plot - I'll just say it will be awesome! Martin is a fantastic writer and we're going to have a blast doing this. I'll post some teaser panels and pages here as we go along, so stay tuned.

Commission

My knowledge of Warcraft goes no further than that now-classic South Park episode (which, if you haven't seen it, is probably the best episode EVER). That didn't stop me doing this recent commission for someone - I was given several screenshots from the game, so I could check out the characters, and I'm happy with how it's all turned out - it was a LOT of work, though!!

Exciting comics-related news coming SOON! As soon as I get the OK, I'll tell you all about it...

In other, non-artwork-related news, I have a crappy cold, but have to sing and play with my band at the Key 103 Xmas party on Friday in front of a few hundred people... should be interesting.

Just missed Halloween...

...but here's a Werewolf for ya! From the forthcoming Where Evils Dare by Tony Lee and myself... I'd love to show more but that would ruin the surprise.
