26th March 2008

Well, it's been a busy few months! I've completed a number of strips and finally saw "Dark Horrors II" published, featuring "Any Cost For Life". I've contributed 8 pages to Tony Smith's "Queeroes" webcomic, which will debut on March 17th, and you can check it out here. "Infection" is published in May, as part of "Futurequake".

The biggest news, though, is that I've just completed the comic-book tie-in to new Brit-flick, "Ten Dead Men"!  Subtitled "The Last Job", the story is a "Sin City" inspired tale of gangs, love, assassination and revenge! The film is released later this year and you can find out much more here. Check out my portfolio section to see some preview pages!

I've been making some fresh contacts recently, and hope to have a couple of  projects coming out in upcoming months. First up, I'm working on a short story for the 2000AD influenced small-press title, "Futurequake", which is an alien invasion tale by Kevin McHugh. Secondly, I'm preparing for a stint on another title in the US, which will be in full colour! I don't want to say anymore right now, but it's a really interesting series. Can't wait!

The Birmingham convention proved to be a really useful and interesting experience. Apart from meeting some great people, "Hi Richy, Dave and Stephen!", Michael Wright of DC Comics, Garry (Miracleman) Leach and David (Brodie's Law) Bircham were all extremely positive about my work, which was cool, and also gave me some excellent advice about moving things forward. All of which I shall be absorbing and making use of! I'm currently working on some new sample pages, including Judge Dredd, and have pitched some work to a new company with Martin Fisher, which I will tell you more about, should it get picked up.

11th October 2007

This weekend I'll be taking part in the live portfolio event at the International Comics Show in Birmingham, UK. It promises to be a very interesting experience, and the whole weekend should be lots of fun! I really hope to meet some of the participating professionals, including Kevin Nowlan, Alan Davis and Mike Mignola... and picking up as many tips as possible! Good luck to all the attendees, see you there!

6th September 2007

Just seen the ad on ComicBookResources.com for Comic Book Idol 3, which sounds like a great opportunity... and an intriguing challenge... I'm going to give it a shot. I'll keep you guys posted!

Next up will be a 1-page Doctor Who strip, written by Martin Fisher. It's a really clever tale of Sarah Jane Smith, based on her latest appearance in series 2.

After that, I'll be plunging into a brand new Marvel submission, aimed at the ChesterQuest talent search... can't wait to get started on this!

20th August 2007

How cool is this? "Any Cost For Life" has been accepted by Arcana for "Dark Horrors II". It's one of just 20 successful entries, out of I don't know how many! Thanks to Martin for a great script that really gave me something to get my teeth into.

Speaking of which, I'm also going to be providing line-art for a 1-page "Transformers:Mosaic" strip from Martin, which IDW will hopefully pick up for the regular comic.  Things are really moving at the moment!

28th July 2007

Phew! I've now completed "Any Cost For Life", for Arcana's "Dark Horrors II" anthology. Just made the deadline, too! Check out the artwork here in the Portfolio section.

12th June 2007

Just thought I'd say "Hi!" to any new visitors... hope you like what you see! I've been dipping into Digital Webbing recently, and have made a couple of interesting new contacts, including Martin Fisher, a writer with lots of cool ideas, chief of which is a great script for Arcana Comics' annual "Dark Horrors" anthology. He is really into my work and has presented me with a killer 6-page story, "Any Cost For Life". Completed pages will be posted here when they are ready!
