Artists feel pressured to make new art too quickly at the moment. Normalise artists fucking disappearing for months. Just walk off into the woods for a year and come back with a single sketch. It’s good for you

Here's my new cover for this year's
@2000ad.bsky.social Sci-Fi Special. When I was a kid, being bought a Summer Special comic was the highlight of a day to the seaside; so it's great to get the chance to continue that tradition.

Currently on page 20. I think that's the most pages I've ever drawn for myself without getting bored and moving on to something else (most usually something paid).
There's a very real danger that I might actually *gasp* finish this one. 😱

Petrol Head. Dunno if it’s a reaction to AI or what but I’ve been yearning to do stuff on paper recently. I’m normally very digital-reliant and I loathe inking by hand (I’m shit at it), but I like coloured pencils and my airbrush, so I did this last night. Made some mistakes but happy. Doing more.

If you’re into beautifully-written, informative dives on horror, sci-fi & weird shit, I highly recommend signing up to Alec Worley’s sub. The latest - on Who Goes There?, its author, the movie that later engulfed it & the echoes that still sound today - linked here open.substack.com/pub/alecworl...
Science Fiction Double Feature: Who Goes There? (1938), The Thing (1982)
John W. Campbell's classic novella of Golden Age science fiction and John Carpenter's modern horror masterpiece - both absorb new meanings in the age of Covid, identity politics and generative AI

🗣️ FREELANCE ARTISTS
I can't take on the cover project right now due to my busy schedule, so I am gathering a list of artists to send to the client.
It's an urban fantasy romance, deadline - late summer.

Ah boo. Jack Vettriano has died. Loved his work - and his general disdain for artworld snobbery. This, from 2014, was my riff on one of his more famous paintings.
Also struck by the thought that he and both editors of this comic are now gone… Bah…
