Cars, art, design, sci-fi, Calvin & Hobbes and dogs, mostly. 🚫AI. One of those vegan petrolheads you hear about. Good vibes only.

It’s about time I introduced myself again. I’m James, an illustrator, designer and writer from the UK.

My obsessions are cars, my dog Winnie and sci-fi. I’m currently working on a long-gestating new sci-fi IP.

You can buy prints and merch of my work at mrjalco.myshopify.com

Cheers!

I wonder how many people realise that with a trailer on the back, many people in the UK would not legally be allowed to drive this.

2.4 tonnes for an estate car. How ridiculously stupid. What an incredibly idiotic machine.

One year ago today I posted this miniature Ant Man photo I created using real lighting, figures, a coaster in the shape of a button and some crochet I borrowed from my Mum.

This will be no surprise to anyone who has ever worked in any kind of large corporate. Silence uber alles.

The fist sign that spring is on the horizon here is seeing snowdrops. My little artwork shows a woodland filled with them.
You can find this in my Folksy shop...

There is not an oceanic trench in existence that is deep enough to contain my loathing for both of these companies.
Just another day I am grateful that l I did not build Democracy Docket on Substack. It's harder and more expensive, but it allows Democracy Docket to remain truly independent and pro-democracy. www.democracydocket.com

Just found out we *should* have the Jogger back in the next 3 working days.

Been without it for 5 weeks.

Courtesy car was finally delivered from Europcar yesterday. Filthy, stinking of smoke, damage inside, incorrect paperwork (including a ‘no damage’) note.

Why is everyone so useless?

Here's a small portion of an animated bumper I made to promote a video game from @owlcatgames.bsky.social (Blind Descent). Seeing the latest advances in generative AI and how they've invaded space, I feel lucky to have at least produced this little piece from start to finish 🥲.

When you’ve spent days - DAYS - working on something that management insisted was urgent, only to find out at the last minute they decided to cancel it because “it’s not needed”. Only no one bothered to tell you.
