I’ve been occasionally breaking down into a mess throughout the day, but I am finding solace in the 4+ hours of conversation I recorded with Itagaki-san last year for a book we were working on together. They were his development memoirs, and I will do everything in my power to bring this to life.

RIP TOMONOBU ITAGAKI

Sometimes as a writer it is important to really test yourself - to take risks, to break out of your comfort zone and do something radically new. With this in mind, I have written a nostalgic article about a Sega game

It’s #portfolioday!!

I’m a professional freelance artist who mostly focuses on gaming and anime. I work with YouTubers, indie devs, merch manufacturers, and many more!

RIP, Drew Struzan.

RIP Drew Struzan - a man whose talent and imagination etched onto so many minds throughout the last 40+ years.

His art & posters are some of the first visuals I think of when I think about cinema - an invitation to watch these stories and worlds.

A massive loss 💔

Sketch dump of my four favourite characters from #shenmue

I want a Wan Chai spin off anime so much! Not as much as I want Shenmue 4, but while making the game why not have a cheeky little anime series set in Hong Kong? What are the Heavens up to without Ren?

I did the artwork for my friend's ambient / bgm / concept album sampling sounds from Shenmue (1999, Dreamcast), out today. We were both obsessed w/ the game back in the day and the album really captures the special feeling of being immersed in that world.
