I struggle with drawing machines, so I'm working on a quick and dirty model of the one-person "ship" that one of my poor astronauts will be using to land on Mars.

It’s based on a real NASA concept vehicle called the FLEEP.

Omg - just arrived in the mail from @decassette.bsky.social! Peak comic-book sci-fi magic!

That’s my evening taken care of.

Ghosts on a spoooooky alien ship, with blood, gore and much, much worse. The first few panels from my new Halloween comic - exclusive for my Patreons. 👻

Um. “Comics.” Comics was the name for the medium.

Why does this get my goat so much 🤣

My mini comics tend to be very densely drawn and take many hours per panel. So as I block out my graphic novel, l'm aware I'll need to come up with a simpler approach if I ever hope to get this book done! 😅

Here's a couple of examples of this paired down look l've just finished.

Washington Post, 1912.

Not cool, Washington Post. Not cool.

Omg. Just spend the last couple of hours drawing an alien spaceship, based on flower and bone shapes I liked, only to realise I’ve created the monster from Nope. Goddammit! 🤣

Started drawing Bad Space's first Chinese space mission, circa 2035. And because I am a nerd, I gotta make sure the crew's space suits are bang on.
The ref photos are their planned moon suits, which debuted just last year!

Velociraptor I cast in bronze, in pieces over past couple of weeks - from a 3d model by Clynche Art. Lots of learning in pouring and putting this together, but huge improvement on what Ive done before! Stoked!

After a bit of back and forth to get the perfect book, we did it. It’s finally on our shelves. No more preorders, it’s ready, it’s real, and numbers are limited. Get it here:

Time for some hard core sciencing? Don’t mind if I do.

Drawing a soldier sucked to his death in a big ass space hole?: super fkn cathartic. Can recommend.

My friend stitched me this and wow do I feel seen.

Sean Plunket’s words for @misswhanau.bsky.social on The Platform.

This is the vile misogynist crap our women leaders have to put up with. These men stir up hate and violence, they preach racism and sexism and they are allowed to get away with it.

Oo just realised i could animate the drawing I was working on, so I did.

Thats all. 🤣

Two comic masters on the nightmare of Gaza: Joe Sacco and Art Spiegelman.

New comic underway. And that means a new character.

I do try to avoid the generic “pretty face” common to many comics (and Hollywood for that matter) so I spend a lot of time making sure my character’s faces reflect something about their (no doubt) tortured inner landscape.

Just found this gem by the dark and hilarious @grickle.bsky.social hidden in a pile at my local comic shop! Stoked!

Since imitating some of your methods I had my first completely successful bronze pour the other day! Lil Darwin. So thanks again.

New comic up on my Patreon: the causality violation problem with faster than light travel.
And also explosions, for you heathens.
