MCM Expo in London this weekend!

As you know me and Stacey have been to the MCM Expo twice now and this weekend will be our third time there, only this time we will be there for both Saturday and Sunday! Why? because Stacey has not one but two costumes! On Saturday she will be dressed as the nymph from the Rayman origins Trailer..
..and on Sunday she will be in her Ly the Fairy costume again, this time with a better wig and lipstick! :)

Sadly I still haven't been able to get any kind of costume together myself: I would love to go as harry Hill sometime but you wouldn't believe how hard his trademark big collar shirt is to find! The fact that he apparently has to get them tailored made himself says it all.

Either way I'll be taking a lot more photos and probably some video too now I have a spiffy new camcorder! I'm also looking forward to maybe trying out Marvel vs Capcom 3 and buying some cheap Blu ray's from Manga video. Good times!

Unkletom



A collection of over 250 animations (and growing) by a 64 year old man in his spare time from looking after his 72 year old wife. He also has 8 blogs. The people of Youtube never fail to amaze me.

Jessy Dog

A tad silly this one but this is pretty much true to life, except for the whole Rocky cat talking part of course. Make too many comics like this and people will probably think I want to be the next Jim Davis. Jess sure is a funny little hairy lump though.

Eczema (again)

Always has been and probably always will be the bane of my life. When I feel all those horrible white clumps of the stuff on my head under my hair I can imagine it'd look like the moon surface. So here it is complete with moon related cameos! I guess having a laugh at it is all I can do when every cream and shampoo I've tried has failed to even calm it down for a minute, hmmph.

And yes I've drawn about this before. Don't worry the next one will be more light hearted.

Cloud Formations

Yep, another comic based on a train journey. This happened sometime in the summer I believe. What I couldn't illustrate here is how the alligator was looming towards the plane, haha.

Video Game Elitists

This is to all you angry forum posters out there that spend hours arguing about who's opinion is the right opinion on a much talked about game coming out.

This comic was originally going to be a specific game in particular (you can probably guess what it is if you've been reading my tweets!) but then I realized just about every video game conversation has people like this spitting acid everywhere because I presume they have nothing better to do than say...play a game they DO like with their spare time.

Of course even I've been guilty of this from time to time, mind, but I tend to rarely get involved in heated 'debates' on message boards anymore. Rather I waste my time reading them. Natch.

I have another Animals Packing Heat sketched up but I'm busy on some freelance work at the moment so you're gonna have to wait a bit for it. How am I making these comics then? While I'm on the train of course! I seem to be really comfortable with drawing on my lap now a days, even if the seats have a table I sometimes prefer drawing on my lap. Odd.

Most Embarrassing Train Journey Ever.

Another comic sketched up while on a train, based on another train journey that actually happened quite a few years ago now, but I felt deserved a comic anyway.

MANtis Fly.

 Saw an image of a Mantis Fly in a big book of Animals Stacey owns and it instantly made me think of this, so I drew it right there on the spot before the thought passed. Gave it a quick slap of colour for the fun of it.

Puppies with Pop Guns

 #8 in the Animals Packing Heat series.


The most cuddly and marketable (probably) of the series! What would an animal calender be without puppies? To keep things interesting i made each puppy a different breed, though I may of made some mistake with their ears and tails looks for those breeds but never mind.
