We all do really.

I've finally finished my 5 page strip for the wonderful charity comic of the aforementioned name. Done in a week (as well as holding down a 45 hours a week job) from concept, to layout, pencils to inks. Pretty balls to the wall stuff, but I'm pleased with a few panels of it. And it's for the environment, which is a fantastic cause.

If anyone's interested, it's set in a post-apocalyptic world where religions and technology have formed together into mass entities in the wake of a nuclear holocaust to combat the rise of magic. A second holocaust brought on by this conflict has turned the world into a burnt-out husk where magic and faith have been blown away- the air is unbreathable, the sky red and black- no life can survive without a containment suit.

Now only the strongest survive. Champions walk the earth to battle for the title of 'Aleph'- the number one.

The current Aleph has reached the site of the Deus Ex Machina and fought his way through The Guardians to reach the last treasure- the one thing in the world with any meaning or value. It is the last flower in the world. In this 'Saint Flower' resides the hope for the future- nature and the divine spark.

But Aleph has been followed. Outside the Factory-Church, the last of the world's champions have gathered together- all eager to win the prize of the title of Aleph and The Last Treasure...

 

(yep, it's essentially an excuse for me to draw some gas-masked dudes having a fight for a few pages!)

Finally finished my Pinup series for my client.

Done in the style of Gary Palm, with a quite specific brief, I think they've turned out quite nicely. I obviously had to change a few bits and unify the colour scheme, but I've remained quite faithful to the spirit of the originals.

I hope you enjoy them.

I'm now actively pursuing commission work, so if anybody wants anything done,or knows of anyone who wants anything done, let me know. I want to use this for my submission folio to show I can work for other clients in addition to my own design and sequential work.

A full coloured A4 print will be £20. It takes a few hours work for each piece so I don't think this is too unreasonable for your very own piece of art. If anyone wants anything else, or a series of pieces, we can work out a mutually agreeable price. (Obviously, original work will be more, but this'll depend on the degree of complexity.)

If anyone has any questions or requests, please feel free to message to my 77studios myspace (or ring me, or *gasp* talk face to face)
