GT/BT was a big-concept comic i'd planned for six issues. in the end i drew 3 of them, and then lost steam. i was drawing them alongside Bear, not sure how i found the time, but i think other ideas took precedent.
but yeah, there's 72 pages of comic completed on it, it deserves at least being put up online or something. i just need to find the time to present it properly. it will be seen one day, there's some good stuff in there! -
um. ew.
yes okay. wait, no. -
oh everything. i've been trying to work on a slightly new style recently and it's just been a constant fight to get it how i want it, inevitably i keep sliding back into making everything look cute and that wasn't what i was trying to do.
i think i'm at the point where i'm happy with how i draw on the whole, i know things will turn out looking okay. but you always want to be much better, and seeing other artists can often deflate you when you think 'why don't i draw as well as that?'. but i figure everyone thinks like that, we all want to be better. and that's healthy i suppose.
maybe i'd like to be better at expressions, and body posing. thats the technical stuff i think i never bothered to learn before i dived into this. -
of course, though i guess it depends what you're using it for. if you're gonna print a million tshirts with an Ubu slogan and live in a volcano with the earnings, then no. if its just for fun, then yes!

im terrible at internet replying, i lose track of everything. i used to be really on top of it and reply to everyone but my brain's just not as alert anymore.
i thought this might be a better avenue to do it. it'll hold my attention for another week or two i'd say :) -
my neighbours i don't know, i rarely talk to neighbours. i don't think i come across very friendly, but really i just find smalltalk awkward.
in the flat i lived in before this, the woman downstairs drove me actually mad with her noise and repeatedly set off the fire alarm. although when she did this, it tended to bring everyone in the other flats together as we all congregated in the hallway to try and figure out how to turn the fire alarm off. thats how i met the sweaty man in flat 5 who was wearing his dressing gown and nothing else at 6pm. oh, ummm :( -
Yes. would i have to live there, or just visit? i don't think i could live in america, everyone's so friendly. it's very sedate here in england, we all drive cars from the 50s and go 'pip pip' and have a healthy distrust of foreign languages.
i've been planning to get to America for years, every year i intend to go to Comicon and have a little road trip, every year because of time and money i fail :( but one day. ONE DAY.
you are good good people. GOOD. -
i'd go back to the premiere of Back To The Future, and blow their tiny eighties minds. then i'd find 6-year old jamie, tell him to man up while punching him in the arm, and draw a nob in his Bananaman notebook for me to find 24 years later, and giggle a bit because i'd forgotten i did it.
realistically, if we invent time travel, this is what we're inventing it for. -
realistically, if you looked into your mind you'd probably only find the 98% we don't use. so it'd be mostly darkness, maybe a few childhood issues floating around, some pink lumps of gristle. i wouldn't risk titting around with evil forces just to see how mundane the inside of my brain is.
also, no. far as im aware. though i'll drag him onto Jeremy Kyle and get a dna test if there's even a whiff of suspicion. -
yeah y'know i'd love to. i'm very pleased with how this has all gone so far, i've built up a roster of characters i can dip back into if i have new ideas for them. this was always the plan, since i know how terrible my concentration is it's nice to have different characters to choose from. But the idea that one day they'll start popping up in each other's stories, and that eventually we reveal they all inhabit different corners of the same world, has always been very appealing. i guess we'll have to wait and see :p

no plans for Ubu Bubu at the moment. I'm dead proud of that book, but realistically thats four months work in there and at the moment i can't afford to devote that time to something that is essentially a fun personal project. i wish i could, Ubu has characters in it i'd love to work with again, so hopefully one day in the future a chance to do it all again will arise.
Those animal prints are all ready for me to go and make into postcard, i've just been trying to find the chance to do them properly. But this year, i'll definitely try and get them out this year.
Thanks for remembering! :) -
getting an agent wasn't intended to get more work, at least initially. i've been doing the legwork when it comes to getting work myself for this long, i imagine it carrying on like that. i just realised (finally) that i needed someone who understood the legal side of this business to protect me, so i could continue to do the fun things.
that said, i have a wealth of new ideas i'm inevitably going to want to start pushing about soon, and an agent would be well placed to help me. so it'd be interesting to have a conversation about it, yeah. -
s'alright innit? how good do people expect it to be when you're thousands of metres up in the air? long as no one's spat in my food i'm happy.

Ubu Bubu. Looshkin's got the randomness when it comes to weapon of choice, but his whimsy might be his downfall. Ubu Bubu holds the apocalypse inside him, that's some mean power right there.
But throw a lump of top-grade catnip in the middle of that fight and all bets are off for at least an hour while everyone calms down and has a little sleep. -
if she is, it's working. we're all just patsies!

17? no, 18.
17. my original answer. -
never been! sounds like a lovely place (apart from drop-bears and toilet spiders), but what it takes like seven weeks to get there from the UK or something? long-haul flights scare the boobs off me :(
