Hello Micks!

Thanks for inviting me to join your blog, its an honour indeed.

I decided to pay tribute to some of our influences on The Secret of Kells , I hope I have time to do something to acknowledge the Hungarian folktales,The Thief and the Cobbler and Samarai Jack as well.....

Aisling

I adore the fluidic linear design of Aisling, and the inherent felinity that both looks cool and hints at her more cat-like qualities. Savage stuff Cartoon Saloon.

Like everyone this week, been paying for my holiday sins in work, so here an old doodle from a few years back.

Deff's 'Ed

Feeling nostalgic for the original Death's Head this week, so found a few minutes between writing words for my job to do a messy merker skoodle of his Freelance Peacekeeping phizog, yes?

Daredevil by Stephen Thompson

Here's another old convention sketch from a couple of years ago.

Horse D'oeuvres

JAKE ELLIS

Who is Jake Ellis you might ask? Well, the answer can be found in 'Who Is Jake Ellis?' from Image Comics. Issue 1 came out last week and it's really, really good. Written by Nathan Edmondson with gorgeous art by Tonci Zonjic.

A preview of #1 can be seen here. Go check it out.

Cordelia Chase. And Sword.

A sketch I drew yesterday for an Angel fan.

Perry Winkle

Just a quick wee sketch for a FARSEEKER story.

Hope everyone is having a good 2011.

Grr. Arg.

Here is a panel detail I did recently for something that comes out soon. (With minor edits for spoiler-aversion)

The Shadow by Stephen Thompson

Here's one of the few con sketches I'm happy with, a Shadow piece from the Birmingham convention in 2007. Simpler times.

Help me Obi-Wan, your my only hope.

Been watching a lot of the Clone Wars again lately. Quality show. Wanted to try out something a little more cartoonish.

SPIDER-GIRL

A mate of mine, Paul Tobin, has a new Spider-Girl series from Marvel, so I wanted to do a Spider-Girl piece for him.

Aaaahhhhh.......

No theme this week! Which gives me the opportunity I so crave to not make any extra effort. Here's a sketch of Moonknight lashed out for a guy at a signing in New York last october.
