Hi-Ex! 2010

I'm looking forward to heading up to Inverness this weekend as a guest at Hi-Ex, the Highlands International Comics Expo. Me and loads more artists and writers shall be there, some of whom I'm very excited to meet; I'll have my autograph book at the ready. Whilst there, I'll be sketching to order - with any proceeds going to the Children 1st charity.


New issues of Dogbreath #22 will be on sale and I'll be venturing into the Games Room to see how the RPG and wargame sessions go. Also, I'll be selling (and signing) prints of some of my covers, so feel free to come along and say hello - it'll be good fun.

See you there.

Cover: Dogbreath Fanzine #22

Here's a quick one - the cover for the latest Strontium Dogs fanzine, 'Dogbreath':


This was a pure painting job in Photoshop, using a bit of reference to get the pose correct. I was going for a Frazetta/ Starblazer feel - sort of late 70's/ 80's vibe. Ace.

Apologies for the use of the word 'vibe' but I feel it's suited here.

Dogbreath is run by my good friends at Futurequake, Bolt-01 and others, who'll be selling this issue and plenty of other interesting reads at the up-coming Hi-Ex comic convention this March.

Note: I shall be a guest at said 'Con - very much looking forward to it!

Back to business, here's the plain version:


Hope you like, I feel I made some real headway in the direction I want to push myself with this piece.
