Inkpad Artwork

Happy New year!

I've just got myself a new art package on the ipad (at the pricey sum of...£2.99!), and here's a few of my doodles.

This should be a very handy package for designing characters for a computer board game I'm currently working on (using Construct 2, which I brought for Christmas.  Cheers, Santa!).

Latest doodles

Haven't posted any pictures in a while, so here's a few new ones. They're mostly character designs for a computer board game I'm currently creating on a program named 'Construct 2'. I haven't done any game creation in about 20 years (not since Amos on the Amiga 500!) so I'm having a great time learning stuff and breaking things.

I've already got the majority of the board game done, and I've only been using the program for a few weeks. If all goes well, expect to see a few comic projects converted to games at some point next year (and if any of the comic artists I've collaborated with in the past fancy getting involved, let me know).

Temple 12 Out Now! (Er, still...)

Since the deadline for the Temple Issue 13 is almost upon us (9th December, for anyone who wishes to contribute) I figured it was probably about time I put out an announcement on my blog for the previous issue being out.

So, er, yes! Temple issue 12 is still out now, still free as per usual, and available to download on the main site (www.templeapa.blogspot.com).

Here's a picture of the cover, followed by blurby wordy sorta things from Malcolm Kirk (actually, I've had to position the picture under the writing rather than above it as I'm using ipad Blogger, which is even more shite since the update)

'Have you forgotten how good it tastes? The 66 page Temple APA Issue Twelve is now available to download as part of a complete breakfast a totally free pdf file, containing contributions from the likes of Dave Hailwood, Paul Eldridge, Simon Mackie, Tony Suleri, Adam Grose and Malcolm Kirk, who also provides 100% of the recommended allowance of front cover, which you can see above these words, (unless you're standing on your head or something, in which case - what on Earth are you doing that for? Get the proper way up this instant! How can you even work a mouse like that?).'

Halloween zombies

Happy Halloween, folks.

To celebrate, here's a zombie pic of my friend Terry, and my sister Terri (no relation. Er, except to me).

It was drawn on Sketchbook Pro on the ipad, using a photo reference from the recent Hastings Zombie Walk. The first pic shows the base colours, the second has a scratch and three tone filter applied, and the third is the finished product.

Now go, drink blood and be merry, my wretched little ghouls!

Steampunk Terry (x2)

Couple of pics knocked up on Sketchbook Pro using a few photo references of Terry and Terri.

Demon Geezer

Here's another pic, knocked up with Sumo Paint, and then various filters were added to rough the image up a bit.

Yokel

Get strummin' that banjo, 'cause here's another ipad doodle. Sketched and coloured in Finggr, then a Dirt filter was added in Pixlromatic.
