Right then,

On the art side nearly all my work right now is half done or development sketches meaning nothing that's really worth uploading bar more self portrait work. Instead of another ego trip I've decided to bugger off back to Swindon after my two week sabbatical on the hill in Derbyshire to finish off bits and bobs and actually get back to drawing some actual, factual fucking comics. A: it's what people want and B: it's what I like dishing out.

I'm still in a state of limbo when it comes to updating that work but the best assumption to make is that I'm working on something. If I go too quiet check my LJ account, further than that you can e-mail for foul mouthed updates. Speaking of updates I've just dumped some Swindon photo's on my Ringo account which is held here: [link]

Another update is that Derby College took shots of final year exhibition work back in July that got randomly googled last night. The works all over the place when it comes to subjects, styles and media and features work by my mates Dean, Kylie, Kerri and Kellie aswell as other great people I spent a decent two years with.  That's here: [link]

Finally, if anyone going to the UK Web and Mini Comix Thing next march is reading this then lemme just say the cheque's going in the post next week.

Cheers and Lovely

Eh? I thought Sam'd have past on the message..

I go back to Swindon this weekend. I won't see you lot till Christmas now. It's a fucker but I needed the cash before beingtold that actually I'm 60 up which'd have been great for 2-3 days in Hull.

Still feeling a bastard for just grabbing my books and legging it last time I saw you aswell. Ah well, give us a call sometime.

I see you're reading Time Flies - is it really as bad as the murmurings on the 2k board would suggest? Getting it anyway just for the artwork.

The art's nice but the first story really shows up Bonds early work as being a Hewlett clone (fair does they went to the same college). It's an idea's story really, a lot of zany, silly gags, 90's culture etc. Time Flies isn't awful it's just really loose on the plot and feels like it should've been in Deadline. The plot is basically drawn out far too long.

For the art and a 2.99 price tag it's just about ok. I ignored the crap plot and grinned at the sight gags
