Ongoing Art Video

Hello there

Right, I'm in a massive rush because it's currently eight minutes ago at 10:52.

I tried to wait this out on the upload, but at 5am this morning I had to concede defeat and go bed, promising myself I'd get up at 10am to do the post.  In many ways, you are lucky that I ...

Professional? Part 1 (It's Not About Rugby, Don't Worry)

Hello there

I’m going to have to write this quickly because I’m not sure how long I can manage to concentrate with that picture being up the top there.

To explain, that’s a picture of...

Hello there

A very happy Monday morning to you, and here is the latest episode of Reboot for you, to make it even happier.

There is truly something for everyone in this episode.  Fun, silliness, serious, abject tragedy, disputes, reminisces, threats, cooking, education, camarader...

Cabin Fever 7 May 22

Hello there

It's Saturday which can mean only one thing of any relevance, and that is the brand new, hot off the presses, Cabin Fever podcast.

I am in rather an awake mood in this one, which makes a change, and is also completely incongruous with the time I was recording it. ...

Bit Of Drawing

Hello there

So, I decided that I was gonna have a week off bounty hunters with my drawing this week, and do another thing I was wanting to do after getting a nice screen grab.

I was also pushed toward doing this after having a fresh blub hearing the final Gilbert Gottfried's Amazi...

Head Straightener Update


Hello there

It’s one of my written posts today again, and also again it’s a rather self-indulgent self-analysis post.

I agonise over this sort of stuff (which ironically is just further self-indulgent self-analysis), with a slight worry that it comes over as gloomy. &nb...

Emergency Harping On - Heaton

Hello there

This one-off is too hot on the heels of the last one-off a couple of weeks ago, but here we are. I don't want you to mistake this for confidence, it's rather all I had in stock and had to grab something to upload.

In fact, I'd consigned this to unpostable, but events consp...

Hello there

Hope you are feeling refreshed and recharged after the long weekend.

Over here I have been catching up on the ongoing art stuff, and here is the latest video showing that.

Today we finish the last bits on the Bounty Hunter box and make good headway with the Bat-Poles...

Reboot Podcast Episode 5

Hello there

It actually is episode 5 this week, unlike last week when I accidentally called it Episode 5 because we had just recorded this one.

It's a special bank holiday (UK) episode this week (it's not), with plenty of stupidity and stuff that might make you just shake you...

Cabin Fever 30 April 22

Hello there

Right, messages received and understood.

There was an absolute outrage at the missing autoharp in last week's Cabin Fever, so I made sure to do a bit at the end of this one.  I've just done my proof-listen though and I'm afraid it was awful.

That's the ...

Another Bounty Hunter Addition

Hello there

After a day of overwhelming pitch back and forth yesterday, I decided to spend the evening doing some drawing.

Always nice and relaxing that is, and I was pretty confident that this particular Bounty Hunter figure would be an easier one to do.  Ten hours later, and I ...

Much Quicker Than Expected Rocky Robot Pitch Update

Ongoing Art Video

Hello there

So rather than label this as Bounty Hunter Box Part 2, I have decided to have these videos as ongoing art projects instead.  That way I can do more than one thing in them, which I sort of do in this one.

The Rocky Robot Show Pitch Day

Hello there

A very happy Monday morn to you and yours, and here is the latest instalment of the Reboot podcast, where myself, Rob and Jon, continue to reconnect after years in the wilderness.

Evening Cabin Fever 23 April 22 (and Little Help?)

Hello there

Well good evening. 

Look how that picture is missing half my hand like Back To The Future.

First off, little help request.  My old hard drive isn't mounting (snigger) on my replacement Mac.  It is working on a very old one, so isn't corrup...

Hello there

Hope you are all good and well after the long weekend, and here I am with some art. It's been a loooong time since I did any pointillism ink drawing, so let's put that right.

Gilbert

Hello there

There are, I think, “anticipatories” on the death chart.

I mean, we are all for the chop ultimately, and there’s older family generations etc, but I also think that perhaps we have strangers that we know are going to break our hearts when they die.  So, it has b...
