MCM LONDON COMIC-CON

5/7/2014

Ok, so now its that time of the year when we are heading into the Big Con. You may wonder which I am referring to, but be in no doubt, with Record breaking attendance at the last show, and over 88,000 people passing through their doors, it is one hell of a Big Show!

In just over 2 weeks I will be there from the 23rd of May until the 25th Sketching my proverbial Butt off. I was going to say 'Ass' but it seemed rather Rude. So I will stick with Butt.

Ok so what's the deal? Well I sketch what you want, whatever that may be. But with numbers of 88,000 and growing, it really is 1st come 1st serve. So this is your chance to jump the queue & Pre-Order. No waiting around, no wondering if I can get it done, Just click & collect, & what could be better than that?

To Pre-Order a Sketch simply go to the COMMISSIONS section of this Website along the Top Bar, Click what you are after & pay by Paypal. It couldn't be easier.

Keep an Eye out for more announcements over the next couple of weeks...

AUTO ASSEMBLY 10TH & 11TH AUGUST

8/5/2013

NEW PRINT - THE DINOBOTS!

A bit of a last minute decision for me. Especially with so many shows this year. But it's time to let everyone know I will be at AUTO ASSEMBLY this weekend! Although I am not officially a guest. I was asked by one of my valued fans and friends to come to the show. With an offer of giving me one of his dealer tables just to sketch at and ply my wears. How could I refuse a request like that?

I was hopping to launch something special this year, though with my current workload that will have to wait for another show. Keep an eye out for later this year folks! Of course I am being cryptic, how could I not? After all where's the fun in that!

What I do have with me is a brand new print, and Yes it features none other but the Fantastic Fivesome themselves, The DINOBOTS!

I gotta say I had some fun putting this one together!

Also of course I will be sketching, there is also a chance to pre-order a sketch at show prices if you want to guarantee one. If you already know what you are after, don't miss out. Just Go & check the Commissions Section of this website for details!

MCM LONDON COMIC CON REVIEW

5/29/2013

I can draw Prime and Megatron in my sleep. Though I honesty I always still enjoy drawing both. Spiderman verses Michelangelo was one of the more unusual requests, but also a lot of fun to do. This along with Harley Quinn verses Optimus Prime was one of my favorites.

(Yes that's right, Harley Quinn vs Optimus Prime!)

Unfortunately my camera decided to quit on me. Many of the pictures came out blurred and many others decided not to work at all. Time for new equipment I think, it has served me well over it's time, bless it.

The thing I really like about these shows are the people I meet. Everyone is friendly and everyone does there best to go out of there way to be nice to each other. All those on the outside that make disparaging remarks about these sort of shows or the people that attend, shame on them, the people with bad attitudes ruin things for themselves. That is probably why they are so bitter.

I got to say I enjoyed the hell out of this show, even if it has taken the last two days to recover from it!

There was several cool things from this weekend for me, doing a Spiderman as Sherlock Sketch Cover, which Dan Slott the writer of Spiderman re-tweeted:

All in all what a great show and what great people. Although I came away exhausted at the end of it, Ive also come away reinvigorated from the fantastic feedback and responses from con goers and fans alike.

While people enjoy the work and gain pleasure from it, who am I to deprive them. It would be Criminal!

Here's a few of the happy folks I sketched for, apologies to those not on here, I will make sure I have a fully working Camera with me next time!

MCM London Comic Con. Every time I think a show has reached a new limit, out comes another show and pulls the rug from under my perceptions. I arrived early on Friday for set-up and I am glad I did. The pressure of Setting up and interacting with the public on a Saturday morning whilst also trying to sketch is something best avoided. Making Friday the best time to be prepared for the weekend ahead.

My what a weekend, I've seen busy before and this was something else. I did this same show at the same time last year, but this had to be a new record. A few people told me they had been queuing from 11.00 until 2.00 just to get in the main hall, & I gotta say that is dedication!

The nice thing about doing these shows is the complete mix of requests I receive. It makes it challenging, but it also pushes me out of my comfort zone. I gotta say this time I felt I took the sketches to a new level. I spent a bit more time on each, but felt it was well worth it overall.

I had a lot of fun, due to the challenging requets!

Also getting a Gift of a Wolverine Sketch from Callum Crabb aged 6, whilst wearing his Spiderman Outfit. He has one of my sketches above his desk, keep up the good work Callum!

Added to that a lovely message from Andrew Fernandes on my Facebook wall:

Lee Bradley was such a complete and utter gent when meeting him at Comic con London. Such a talented artist that I admire and respect! Lee was so approachable and encouraging with the work I had to show - his feedback and advice really left me inspired. I'm going to work much harder at making my dream a reality!
Check out this amazing piece of art he drew for me! Optimus Prime! — with Lee Bradley.

BRISTOL COMIC EXPO

5/13/2013

Okay so I was back from this years Bristol Comic Expo. The 1st show I ever went to as a fan and eventually as an industry insider.

So what do I think? I thought it was great. It was definatley busier than last time, and although I did not hang around for the Sunday last year. This year there were decent numbers on this day, which is a one of the difficult things for any 2 day show.

The Saturday started with being asked to draw a Slag. A Dinobot Slag that is, after all this was a comiccon! From there the requests came thick and fast & a nice mix they were too. Optimus Prime, Game of Thrones, Loki, Hellcat, Wolverine, Deadpool, Quentin Quire, a nice mix indeed.

There of course was a tricky one, there always is. Iron Man, Full Colour, but within his latest movie garb. Now Iron Man's not a problem but have you seen the level of tech on his new armour?

Yep Tricky.

It worked out just fine though.

Normally at a show I would be locked behind the table for the full weekend. This time however I was asked to join a panel on Nostalgia in Comics and quite interesting it was too. I was joined with my good pal's John-Paul Bove & Liam Shalloo for the talk. We had a few laughs and all found it far deeper than we expected. The last contributer made the greatest observation. Wether Nostalgia will actually disapear. As with this internet age, nothing truley disapears and everything is accessable. So we never really have time to miss or remaniss about anything anymore. As it is always there, readily available.

Overall this was a good show. Not as busy or as intense as the larger shows. But it did have a nice feel to it. People had time to chat, get sketches, and have a browse around, without being overwhelmed. I like the direction it is heading and personally think they did a great job.

Long live Bristol Expo!

Dave asked for a Slag, he look's happy enough.

MCM MEMORABILIA & COMIC CON

3/18/2013

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.

SUPERGIRLS

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!
