More comics and shit. [May. 13th, 2008|12:10 pm]

This was the vice-like grip of GTA4's story climax. I won't utter a word of what happens...though I'm absolutely BURSTING to tell someone about it. Maybe when it's Nikki time!

Needless to say it was immense...and riddled with twisties. 

Here's an old comic....

I've seen the lovely chap who nicked the pathetic handful of shite a few times since. While he obliviously rolls with his entourage of chumps, I shake my mind-fist. 

IN OTHER SHIT:

I was kindly bought a book called 'How to be an Illustrator' recently. Despite the slight feeling of humiliation reading such a book after doing a FOUR YEAR course where you're meant to be tought this shit, it's a good read. I'm half-way through and I already feel that I have the formings of an action plan. The book also affirms that the illustrators life is one that I REALLY want to live. I think the main thing that's stopping me at the moment is that I still need to land a regular/crappy job. Once I have a regular/crappy job sorted I'll be able to focus solely on promoting my illustration...rather than worrying about the struggle of landing a regular/crappy job. 

So..yeah...

Brioche, Fishing Cap's and dazzling whites... [May. 7th, 2008|01:44 pm]
Here's 2 unseen 'Croc-Chomix' from the heady days of March 2008....followed by a brand new comic! The FIRST of the non-daily format. 

Amazing scenes.




I now wear this cap most days....

....and here's the newie.  I'm not really fussed about the drawing quality of these things...but I'd still ike to apologise for the dire last frame of the following comic. I'm Sorry.


In other shit: 

I bought an original X-box the other day for £17.50....just so I could finally play Stranger's Wrath and go through Panzer Dragoon Orta again. Typically, I've not yet touched those two and am instead enjoying 'Call of Cthulhu', which I bought on account of being a massive survival horror fan...and GamesTM had it in their top 5 'scary' games list. Anyway, it's alright...rough around the edges for sure but it delivers some very nice set-pieces, and has a cool setting and unique atmosphere. 

So...yeah....

Croc-Chomix and such... [May. 2nd, 2008|02:58 pm]
So...yeah...I got rid of my 'Croc-Chomix' blog...I kind of failed at recording my adventures daily, so decided that a dedicated comic blog was a wee bit pointless. Instead I'll just post the odd comic on here. However, I'll start by posting the best of 'Croc-Chomix' so far....hold on to your hats folks....!


....I ruddy loved that bassist...he had the most creepy, yet strangely enchanting falsetto I ever done heard....


Mums eh?...Bless.


NOTE: Panels 1,3 and 4 contain dialogue embellishments....panel 2 I actually uttered out-loud...to the tv.

That's it for now....I might post some more 'oldies' alongside new comic stuffs.

IN OTHER NEWS....I done did a flyer for my bro's Jazz shaped shin-dig. My pay?...a couple of rad Uniqlo t-shirts. They have some T's with Sega designs on at the mo....well worth a checkie of their website.... http://www.uniqlo.co.uk/ ...I think you'll agree that some of those T's are straight lampin' with da flava.

ANYWAY, here's the flyer:



I'm digging my Bebop flavoured Biskamon's.....

Also,  I bought GTA4. I've sunk many an hour into it...and it's utterly bum-blowing. The gameplay is solid, decent and fun in the physics depo. But it's the city that steels the show....sooo many ambient details...a man could suffocate in such ambient detail. I love catching pedestrians on the phone, or seeing insane nutters preach in the streets....just like REAL. A lot of streets have real personality too, they clearly aren't just copy and pasted...some contain ace touches like memorial graffiti's. Anyways, I bloody love it...the story is a triumph so far too.

Finally, I've also been playing 'The World Ends With You' , and it's really one of the DS' best . Immaculate art design, and tres fun once you get the hang of two-screen fighting.

Rad Times.

So I got a Livejournal, which is silly because I've just set up a daily comic blog elsewhere. 

Here 'tis. Check it...yeah? 

EDIT: I've since deleted the blog....In future, visit this very page for comic goodness/badness!!!!

There's only 3 comics up at the mo, but it'll be worth checking back later to see if I've actually carried on with it. I'm enjoying it so far...though I'm mainly using it as a means to make my drawing more fluid. I've never been one to churn stuff out...so a daily comic seems the perfect way to correct my low work rate.

Saying that, I've a pile of stuff that I should be doing for this forthcoming comic-con. But I just can't seem to get stuck in...I've no time to make a comic, and badges just seem a bit 'meh'. Any ideas? I'm not so worried though, I'm mainly just looking forward to seeing my illustration budz' again. 

On a 'things you should buy' note. You should all get Season 3 of the US version of 'The Office'. It arrived 2 days ago (as clickers of the above link will know), and has provided many massive chuckles. "I'm Prison Mike!"

Peace out chumz!
