AFTER WALES COMICCON

5/2/2013

I was very kindly invited along to this years Wales Comic Con by its organizer Jaime Milner. It was my first time in Wrexham and was not quite sure what to expect from the show. It had a good quality guest list and I was able to fit the show into my schedule, so I though 'why not, lets give it a blast.'

I wasnt quite expecting the numbers that did turn up. The queues did not just go around the building, they went around the block, the car park, and as far as the eyes in my skull could see.

It was nice to find that quite a few people came specifically to see me. Which is always a good thing to experience. The sketch requests were varied and at most times quite challenging.

Iron Man vs. Batman, Captain America knocking out Hitlers teeth, Creating Captain Wales or a multitude of Spider-Men. Yet for the 1st time no Optimus Prime!

The one thing I have found lately is that people are requesting me to turn them into their favorite superhero. Or have them battling with their favorite.

It was so busy on the day I could not keep up with demand. Remember folks, First come, First serve! Well done to all those that Pre-Ordered, its the smart move!

Pre-Ordering a Specific request IS the way of the future.

All in, my experience of the show was a really nice friendly atmosphere, great people & extrememly busy.

Now if it had longer opening times that might be better, or may be even Two Days next time Folks?

And Now VALIANT!

CARDIFF COMIC CON 2013

3/6/2013

I had an early start for this years Cardiff show. I would usually drive, but this time I grabbed a Cross Country Train down to the show. Although this meant an early start, I got the chance to see parts of the country I had not seen before.

That is the nice thing about doing new shows in new ways, you get to see things from new angles. It is always good to learn doing this job, which is something I hope I am continually doing.

I arrived at the Show 10 minutes before opening to be greeted by the friendly staff & a long queue waiting around the block, some in cosplay as their favorite characters. Others just wanting to get something involving their favorite characters.

Which is where I come in.

I had a nice mix of requests this time. Especially as much of them were characters I actually love myself. Getting to draw things I enjoy is one of the best aspects of this job.

OPTIMUS PRIME G1 CLASSIC

The Second Day brought more Fun & what seemed like a different crowd of people. Many more in costume & a lot of Families dressed up for the event. There were was Batman & Batgirl out with their kids, Star Wars, Star Trek, & Iron Man showing off his fancy Outfit.

Plus more sketches for me.

I got the chance to meet new people have fun & even have a drink & a bit of banter with Fellow Artists Mike Collins, Dylan Teague, Liam Shalloo & David Lloyd.

Can't say better than that!
