WIP of a bit of Turtle-y goodness on the digital drawing board today. Haven't really drawn these guys much before which is strange considering what a fan I am. Definitely a lot of fun.

Mad Max Fury Road sketch cover

It's been one crazy week so it has been nice to kick back and watch Mad Max : Fury Road, and whilst doing so finally get around to doing this blank sketch cover i bought back At OCC Melbourne

WIP entry for talent search

One a few projects I’m working on today. Got a heads up from a mate this morning on a talent search that has you draw a pin up image of a publishers character. Whilst I don't think my style is the right fit for their stuff I had to give it a crack anyway.

Boba Fett

A few of my recent Boba’s and some of the fast prelim scribbles I throw down when trying to rough out the idea.

Another Boba Fett

Found myself purchasing yet another Funko vinyl today. It was the protoype Boba Fett, which then became an excuse as if I needed one) to draw Boba Fett again. This time I went for the veritable odd couple with him and Bossk.

Adding in some color for my pin up piece for Ray Dillon’s The Gate Keeper comic.

The Gate Keeper

Was really stoked to be asked to do a pin up for Ray Dillon’s upcoming comic, The Gatekeeper. Its got this cool post apocalyptic setting where after a massive end of the world event (see norse Ragnarok) most of the population are either wiped out or mutated. The handful of survivors find refuge in this last bastion they call Canyon City.

Protected by a massive gate the city is watched over by main protagonist, Clayton who dons a mysterious set of power armor and becomes the guardian of what is left of humanity.

Really cool concept, and I dug the ominous overtones, so naturally I decided to treat my piece in the only way I knew how... light heartedly :)

Instagram page

Looking to keep up to date with all my sketches and daily scribbles. My Instagram page is a good place to check out for regular updates.

Boba Fett

and another Boba Fett sketch for the more hardcore Star Wars fans...

Boba Fett and the bounty hunters

Boba Fett and the bounty hunters. My favourite characters in the Star Wars universe...

Venom

A side to Venom we very rarely get to see.... 

Myself, Alana,... and Facebook.

Life with my wife, Alana... and Facebook.

Oreo

Its needless to say that if Alana and I don't walk Oreo for a few days, then taking him to the paddock will result in you seeing a bit of a blur in the distance.

Spiderman

Kickin' the day off with a bit of Spidey action!

Black Panther

One of the more surprising announcements for Marvel movies for me was Black Panther. That said I am really looking forward to this movie. Is great to see Marvel taking a chance on some of their IPs that aren’t necessarily the heavy hitting mainstream. I think GOTG proved that gamble can sometimes pay off...in spades!

Deadpool .... again!

Another Deadpool piece. This was one I drew back at Oz Comic Con Melbourne and decided to give the color treatment.

Oreo bounce

So easily distracted today... drew our dog, Oreo. This is what he's like when he sees my wife

Deadpool, Rocket Raccoon and Groot

Couldn't help but take another crack at Deadpool whilst I was procrastinating this morning...

Deadpool and Thanos

Bit of an afternoon scribble, in between inking some pages.

The Witcher: Wild Hunt

Another Witcher inspired sketch. Am totally addicted to this game!

Scotch College Literature Festival

I had the pleasure this week of being invited along to the Scotch College Literature Festival to do a bit of drawing for the kids and chat comics. Was a lot of fun. They really do put on an amazing event. A big thanks to Fleur and the crew for inviting me along and running such a great event!

Rogue Trooper

This to remind myself as much as anyone that I did some drawing as well as drinking at the other day’s comic creator meet. Rogue Trooper inspired by that fact we are fortunate enough to have the amazing Colin Wilson at our meets!

The Wicther : Wild Hunt

Am a little bit obsessed with the latest Witcher game at the moment. Not sure I want to think how many hours I've sunk into it. It has however inspired me to do a few sketches.

SDCC 2015

Just finally getting to process the awesome experience that was SDCC 2015. Wow! Blew all our expectations!

Firstly our panel went amazingly. We had such an interactive audience with great discussion and lots of questions. The show itself was mind blowing. Had a great meeting  with an editor over there, talked to some amazing artists - some of which have been massive inspirations. Bought lots of cool merch, went to see a heap of awesome panels. We went to the Eisner’s, checked out all the local restaurants and bars had to offer, and even got to go to a couple of really cool drink and draws.

We met so many cool people over there and had an amazing time. 4 days at the show and we still didn’t get to see everything. Really was an amazing trip.
