Greetings. I'm a 30+ year veteran of the games industry. I've made Lots of my own original IP like TY the Tasmanian Tiger and Blade Kitten. As well as directing some smaller lesser known IP like Star Wars: The Force Unleashed :D

I like to design characters and make comics in my "spare" time.
Quick morning spaceship before I start work.
Meet the Rumble-β. I just felt like drawing something inspired by Twin Bee, Robbit, and Opa-Opa. I miss those cute little spaceship games.

Maybe I should build one in 3D for something different to do?

Cleaning out the back room and went to throw out a box of old install CDs from the 90s. Then I found this little bugger in the rubbish. I knew there was one in the room because I saw it a few weeks ago.

It has been relocated.

Hidden for spider.

Found an old Edge coverdic from 1997 and found this beauty on it. A Japanese ad for Ace Combat 2.

There's a bunch of other PS1 era previews on there in glorious 240P.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Today I'm working on a new 6-page TY comic that's going to be added to a new Doomeranger collection we're putting together. It's to introduce a brand new character to the universe.

OK, that last bit isn't too surprising considering how much I like adding characters but they're a cool new addition.

I just realized that this month marks 25 years since I first designed TY. I don't know where that time went, but here's to the little orange rat.

Had a couple of pizza doughs in the fridge from the weekend so I made a pizza for lunch and it was pretty good. I was going to throw the other one out but instead I prepped it, let it rise and cooked it in the air fryer. It actually turned out pretty good, very yummy with a heap of butter.

Just discovered that my Kindle Scribe pen fits Wacom Pro Pen 2 nibs, so it's now rocking a felt tip nib that feels waaaaay nicer to write with.

I was thinking back to that time when my dad decided to feed the local magpies and things went Hitchcockian pretty quickly. Luckily, they're actually pretty friendly most of the time, but still, this is a lot of murderbirds in one spot.

Going through and editing the menus in Photoshop to remove anything genAI. I know they're aiming to get peeps hooked on them so they can charge for AI credits on top of the subscription.

Also, fuck AI.

Big storm and rain, not expecting any trick or treaters in this weather.

George Lucas sold Star Wars 13 years ago today, so here is the annual update of my now very long illustrated production timeline of the Disney era. 🖖

Watched a bit of the new Star Wars: Visions and wasn't hooked. So here's my Vision - Captain Kazan of the RS Revenge. You might know him better as the narrator of "The Faithful Wookiee" from the Holiday Special. Here he is with his droid sidekick RA-8D6.

Speaking of old ideas that went nowhere. Pathwinder - a sort of Tetris path-making game where you salvage space junk. It had a lot of designs that I still like and try to reuse where I can.

In Aus it's hard to know if you're going to get anyone coming for Halloween candy. Some years it's nothing and others you get multiple groups. I always stock up on my favorites, so it's win-win either way.

I'm expecting people this year since it's a Friday.

Not doing cons anymore these days due to health but when I did back in the day, I went all out. Here's a trailer I did in the style of the "In Search of..." intro. I put a lot of effort into matching the original even filing my own dry ice for the mist.
