It's always good to share this link to 'The Illustrated Blade Runner' PDF. The original 97 page illustrated script from 1982 is almost impossible to find. Enjoy.

Do yourself a favour and get @jamescorcoran78.bsky.social to do you an original commission. He's awesome.

This Restless Natives one is for me. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🚍🤡🐺🏍️💰🚓🏞️
Request for another version of Tam Shepherds but this time with a couple of rather Restless Natives outside

Frazer Brown is a desperate and sad individual trying to forge friendships and alliances where there were none. The whole #TFTQ saga, nay, fiasco is a warning to everyone about big promises but nothing to back them up. FB cynically used COVID to ensnare comic creatives into his £37,000 charity scam.
downthetubes has been alerted to comments by Frazer Brown of Red Cabin Comics that may lead some to consider we gave his never published Tales from the Quarantine project support, and, by implication, support for the company’s dubious…

Really enjoying Small Prophets. Brilliant performances all round with humour and pathos in equal measure. Mackenzie Crook is a bit of modern folk culture hero in my eyes between this, Detectorists and his reimagined Worzel Gummage.

Small Prophets review – Mackenzie Crook’s magical new comedy is pure, pure pleasure
Wonder lies below the surface of this truly fantastic sitcom from the creator of Detectorists. It’s an impossible marvel of TV making

Charity shop find of the day. Some of my earliest illustration and music memories are right here. As a seven year old kid I was obsessed with this album and the gatefold booklet.
It belonged to my big brother but I played it to death, so my old copy is trashed. So lucky to find a nice replacement.

Picked up this nice Scandinavian (?) kjenge folk art bowl at my local car boot sale. I always wonder how these beautiful handmade objects end up in the grim heart of Scotland on a dreich Sunday morning. Paid £5 for it.

I do love his goofy eyeball. #folkart #woodcarving #quack #kjenge

Popped over to my mothballed X account to make sure I unfollowed Frazer Irving. Just out of interest I peeked into his 'following' list.

Ooft. Not good. Some real awful people in there.

No one deserves to be homeless, but not everyone deserves sympathy and your hard earned cash. Think carefully.

Probably calling time on this one. Don't want to overwork it. Learning as I go, quite pleased with most of it. #oilpainting #selfportrait #traditionalart #art

On to the next thing.

Entitled gym lad decided not to park in a parking bay today. Sticking out like a sore bollock on a corner is fine as long as he has less distance to walk to the gym. Lazy shitbag.

Ooft. Big flares popping off tonight over the local petrochemical plant. You very rarely see a doubler like this. I can almost feel the heat from here.

Pray for Paulie.

Stepping away from digital art for a bit and getting my hands dirty. Attempting a self-portait in oil for the first time.

Blimey. It's flipping hard. Need to push the values a bit, I think. Get a bit more adventurous.

As a library guy I've known about Harry Hole for a good while. His name being pronounced as "HOO-leh" takes some of the fun out of it, but the derivation of 'hole' from the old Norse word for 'hill' puts the fun right back in.

Never read a single Dilbert. Looked like a thing that I couldn't possibly give a shit about. Probably for the best. Off you fuck Dilbert guy.You were, by all accounts, a complete tool.

Obligatory Xmas haul photo. Santa knows me so well. Hope he was good to you too. Have a great day, one and all.

Thank you Santa! Just what I asked for.

It looks great, @ianmcque.bsky.social . Will get a good read later on. Worth the wait.
