Tales from the Emerald Isle fanzine

From Hibernia Books, the people who brought you the recent Doomlord and The 13th Floor collections come Tales from The Emerald Isle, a fan tribute to the Irish cast and characters that have appeared in 2000AD.

I have contributed a couple of drawings to it and I'll post them once the book is released..in about 2 weeks

More details as I get them...

Father and Mother Earth

Two characters from 2000ad. One an unforgettable bit player , the other a character most would like to forget.

I started this with the intention of going into insane Chris Weston/Cliff Robinson detail...but as usual , ran out of steam

All Clear...

Well almost..Doc says I only have a few more treatments left, psoriasis mostly gone...for now

So I'm going to get as many tattoos as my bank balance allows while the going's good

(I'm keeping the thong)

Therapy 2- In the Pink

I'm now deemed too pink for treatment.

Treatment resumes next week when i return to a normal colour

Because of the visor my head is a complelety different colourt to the rest of me...sheeesh

Therapy

I'm on a course of photo-therapy for my psoriasis. The apparatus is more or less the same as a tanning booth. What they didn't tell me was that I'd have to wear a skimpy paper posing pouch. I've never felt so ridiculous

Today was my second course and in case I didn't feel silly enough they've now added a protective visor to my outfit.

As well as treating my skin condition I'm getting a lesson in discovering just how uncomfortable I am in my... nudieness

For purposes of context..

Duelling Banjo Pigs

Check out this great blog:

About The Duel of Banjo Pigs

It started out with a duel between friends. Guy Francis challenged fellow illustrator, Stacy Curtis, to a duel of banjo playing pigs. Now, other illustrators have joined the fun with banjo pigs of their own!

I sent the guys this one of mine-you can view it here
