Self-Portrait - 2012
I havn’t done one of these in years. Rations Magazine needed a shot for my feature in their latest issue (get on it HERE ) so I put this together. Inspired by night-time photography, limited palettes and that noir kick I can’t seem to get off.
You really should get on that Rations tip asap. A year from now they’re going to be the big-tings.

A New Challenger Approaches
I just saw a short movie called Codes of Honor about video gaming by Canadian director John Raffman inspired by the death of the famous ‘Chinatown Fair Arcade’ in New York and it reminded me of my own gaming memories, way way back before ‘gamer’ became a noun.
I grew up in arcades; arcades in holiday camps, arcades on cruise ships, arcades in leisure centers. For...
Sell Out
My latest good news is that both debut creator-owned books by my friends Adam Cadwell (Blood Blokes) and Jeffry ‘Chamba’ Cruz (Random Veus) have sold out. Both had work in by myself too, so now is your cue to bug them both to print more. Good job boys, all is well in the cosmos.

SDCC Preview Night...
So Preview Night happened. These days my Wednesday nights at Comic Con involve me running between the crowds to track down all my homies from around the world and find out where they’re staying, where the parties are going to be at and grabbing any art books that are likely to sell out… whilst dodging the hordes of merchandise/free-swag obsessives.
The SLG Publishing booth has posters...
