Thumbnails, roughs and final art from What Would You Say To An Astronaut.
I don't share much these days but wanted to share some of this book as I am super proud of it. I really loved coming up with the colour schemes for space & the different planets. I hope you & your small people love it too.

Haven't watched much #Glastonbury yet (on TV) but Gracie Abrams was great, and made my day playing Just Like Heaven. Now watching Pulp and they have still absolutely got it. Jarvis' voice is fantastic. You know Common people is a banger when everybody in a crowd that size is dancing 😃

Question...

Is Photoshop on ipad good for illustrating or is Fresco better?

Just got a sitting standing desk to help with neck pain, to stop me sittdown all day long (not good for you) and all that sort of stuff. Think it's going to take a little getting used to working standing up 🫤 but it's inly day 1, good so far (need to sort those cables out).

Technical question for the BlueSky-o-sphere...
Anybody using a Cintiq 22 (hdmi + usb connections) with a 2024 Mac Mini? If so, what adapter do you use and do you have any issues with connection at all? 😁 thanks in advance

Today, as my 14 year old Dell XPS is starting to stumble towards the end of it's time on this earth ☹️, I've spent the day having a 'Dell tower plus' Vs 'Mac Studio' kind of dilemma.
Pros and cons on both sides but my little brain is spinning with all the numbers.
