With a brief interlude between posts, here's a quick interview with me at the MCM Comiccon
 

MCM MEMORABILIA & COMIC CON

18/03/2013

 
Another Weekend, another show though this time it was local.  The Memorabilia show was the 1st venue I ever sketched in Public. Though this was way back when The 'Draw The World Together' Charity was there sponsored by NCSOFT.  Back then I was drawing under the charities banner with requests from City of Heroes.

Fast Forward the last few years and the Memorabilia has now become the MCM Birmingham Comic Con.  Although the name Memorabilia and branding is still there, how long will it last?


All I know is the Show didn't just seem busier, it was busier. More people were in attendance at the show than I have seen in many years. With long cues to get into the venue and an interesting crowd of new younger people added in to the mix. Many of the people I had spoke to had never been to the show before, this was there 1st time at the MCM show and the 1st time they had attended a Comic Con.  It was great to see so many were in awe of the event.  


I was kindly asked to draw a nice mix of sketches, a few of which are posted on here.  Some I forgot to photograph, such as a Tubby Dr Octopus wearing a Superior Spider-Man suit that didn't quite fit. I enjoyed Drawing Howard the Duck's alter egos, plus others such as Zombie Prime & Supergirl.

A good show and I met some great people in the process.  All in all a very successful weekend!

Next Weekend you can find me sketching, chatting & having a thoroughly good time at the nearest show to me, the MCM Birmingham Comic Con.  Not quite as much Traveling, but hopefully an awful lot of Sketching.  The show is Twinned with the Memorabilia show at the NEC, so 2 for the price of one!

NEC MEMORABILIA / COMIC CON REVIEW

05/04/2012

 

The NEC Memorabilia show has been re-branded as The Memorabilia/MCM Birmingham Comic Con. Two events spread over two Halls but open and inter-connected.  This is a show with wide appeal which has vastly changed since its beginnings back in 94'. The show had a great atmosphere which really added to making it feel like a fun day out.  The cosplay was excellent and had vastly improved in quality and number from the last event.


I had quite a few random requests over the weekend. There was the usual Transformers and Super Hero characters to draw, but these were vastly overwhelmed by the range and diversity of requests that came in. Lego Sherlock Holmes, Bruce Lee, BatFink vs. Mr Mxyzptlk were but a few.
Which is something I can say I really enjoyed!


All though I was sat behind a desk for the weekend, I did get an opportunity to take a peek at the show.  Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves and I personally had a fun weekend meeting some great people old and new.  The one thing I had trouble with was lifting my head up from the desk when sketching to see what was around me. Doh!


I was also asked to Judge the Entries for the Art Competion that was sponsored by Letraset.  I thoroughly enjoyed this, There were some good entries and others that provided me with a good chuckle. Intentional or not I do not know.  Overall I had a great weekend amongst some great people, I hope everyone enjoyed the show as much as I did.
