Every year I try and post something along these lines. Anyone working on being a comic colorist feel free to reach out. To review work, portfolio, tips or any other queries related I might help with after 9-ish years working for most of the publishers.
Happy to help out if I can.

World War Hulk came up in conversation today, which reminded me of one of my fave things I did on SKTCHD.

I paid a foley artist/sound designer who worked on Blade Runner 2049 (amongst other movies) to turn the insane "VJJJWOMMMVVVVVVB" sound effect from that series into a real sound. It's awesome!

Please let this be skippable for inveterate Hot Rod-enjoyer and cheapskate Nick Roche
We now have a better look at the upcoming MPG Hot Rod, and it prompts the obvious question — is this just some sort of SS86 upscale?

I've written a thing about exactly this here --> www.patreon.com/post...

What do you make of the new Transformers reveal?

I've read this and it's a proper mystery why it hasn't found its home yet. Big on concept and even bigger on chonky dense action, it's a super-stylish Mecha v Kaiju blast for the current Moment.

I'd love to see someone pick this up, it's too good to keep secret.
No company we've approached has accepted it. We tried crowdfunding on Zoop in 2022 but it bombed because I got COVID on launch day.

One of my 2026 goals is to get this published and out there at last. I am open to help or suggestions. Hope you enjoy this peek. (2/3)

Can't believe this has been sat on YouTube for fifteen years and I'd never heard it until today.

Missing Link Grimlock AND MPG Hot Rod? Takara woke up in 2026 and chose violence. GIVE ME IT ALL!

Thank fuck for Phillo, maybe the only entity that can go some way to redressing the balance against Enoch Burke, Conor McGregor and Graham Linehan
40 years to the day since Ireland's greatest-ever rock'n roll star left us for the great gig in the sky. He set our musical world alight in the previous decades, putting Ireland on the musical map like no other.
No-one will ever be as cool as Phillo again.

Apparently Paypal is now asking those who commissioned artists through invoices for feedback on the experience, Please never type anything, Its a trap. Just putting both yours and their accounts at risk of bans.

A Merry Christmas from me & @pye.bsky.social who finished up this Double Page Spread sneak-peak of the forthcoming PETROL HEAD: SECOND GEAR (and added some snow, just because). Have a good one, everyone.

Very hashtag blessed to be selected as the guest for the OFFICIAL TRIPLE TAKEOVER CHRISTMAS EPISODE 2025.

Listen to me bring the noise as I talk about some Hasbro projects that never came to be, and how that led to Thrilling 30 Sandstorm and Springer, in whichever order you prefer!
One of the most memorable moments in our chat with Nick Roche is when he talks about seeing his Springer design on a toy shop shelf for the first time.

Not as a sketch.

Not as a comic panel.

But as a finished Transformers toy.

Can you imagine?

Sometimes being a single dad means you haven't got enough arms to do all the chores that need doing at Christmas. So for DAY 23 of #ADVENTICONS, spare a thought for TARANTULAS!
