Saw Blues Pills at Manchester's Academy 3 earlier in the month... Flipping marvelous! Here's a poster idea based on the amazing LP artwork.

Enjoying the new Primus LP immensely! Here's a gig poster I put together to show my appreciation!

Black Moth T Shirt Comp Entry

Here's a Black Moth T design I did for a competition. It didn't win (but the winning design was pretty damn wicked!)

Cool!

Survival Guide poster

Purson London Gig Poster

Here's my gig poster for the upcoming Purson show in London (Just prior to them heading off to play the KISS Kruise!!). I'm off to see them in Bolton next week, so I thought I'd put something together to celebrate my excitement!!!

Zombina And The Skeletones return..

Here's another poster to celebrate the reanimated Zombina And The Skeletones UK Halloween tour. Really pleased with how my experimentation in photoshop is adding texture and depth to my usual flat style.

Zombina & the Skeletones poster

Very VERY pleased with how this poster has turned out to celebrate the return of the mighty ZATS!!

Illustration was inspired by the lyrics "in a demon dragster, hittin' warp speed ten" from the seminal 'Zombie Hop' track!

Zombina & the Skeletones poster rough.

VERY rough sketch for a 'Jack the ripper' themed poster for an upcoming ZATS gig in ye olde London Town... So rough I've spelt Skeletones wrong.... :-/

Black Moth drawing

I thought I'd posted this sketch I did of the mighty Black Moth... Must be getting old... Anyhoo... Here it is! Taa daa!!

Been toooo quiet on here... Sorry!!

Here's a press photo of one time 'Doughy Scones' frontman 'Dick Dagger'... When the famed rockers fell out over a packet of Jelly Babies, their meteoric rise to fame was cut short. Dick (or Richard Dangler the 3rd to him mother) eventually resurfaced with a record of experimental farmyard noises that was way ahead of its time and was promptly shelved as Dick was dropped from his label. Now, 40 years later, remastered from the original recordings, GLOOP records is planning a lavish anniversary LP/Book edition of 'Moo, Baa, Cock-a-doodle, Quack' 

Doodling!

The Spiders (supporting Blood Ceremony at Manchester's Deaf Institute).

... and the headliners themselves.

Here's what they really look like!

Black Moth

Lucky enough to see the mighty Black Moth in my home town today! Bloody marvelous!! Enough said!

Black Moth sketch

Did a 'Brom' inspired sketch for a mock 'Black Moth' sleeve/poster yesterday!

Nocturnals sketch

Marveling at Dan Brereton's artwork again today... I love the Nocturnals, especially Gunwitch! So here's a sketch I did of him this morning.

The Misfits

 

Had a drawing floating round my head of the current Misfits line up (to celebrate seeing them on my birthday in June!) it took me a lot of paper and wasted sketches to finally get the drawing how I saw it in my head... Here's 2 versions that came the closest to how I wanted it to look.

Mathematical!!

What time is it?

Season Of The Witch

Sunday morning sketch development inspired by 'The First Twenty Years of Hellboy' book I got hold of yesterday... Such a great showcase of Mignola's artwork.

What time is it??

....it's TIKI Time.... With Tiki-stein!!

To Boldly Go...

Another recent sketch I'm happy with! Have to start working some of these up in colour.

Hellboy

Hellboy day yesterday, here's a drawing I finally managed to get together late on last night... Did LOTS of sketching and was just about to give up, when this popped out! (Sharpie and Posca)
