Scotland MCM Comic Con 2016






Thank you to everyone at Scotland MCM Comic Con over the weekend! It was really lovely to see people from last year and meet new people. I have a 1/2 table at the Bristol Comic & Zine Fair this Saturday. Best zine fair of the year - see you there?! I’ll be bringing FREE MINI COMICS as usual!


If you can't make it to Bristol, there's a list of autumn events in the blog sidebar and don't forget I have an online Etsy shop - ships worldwide.




I managed to catch some great bands play in Glasgow on the Friday night before the event - Joyce Delaney, Crywank & The Tuts. More gig sketches on my music blog tag.

ICE Comic Con 2016



Thank you to everyone who found us at ICE Comic Con on Saturday. Special thanks to Sarah Fogg for bringing her Pokemonathon and keeping me company. The Pokemon paintings are available to order from Sarah's Etsy shop.

The next con I'm attending will be Scotland MCM Comic Con! I don't have the table number confirmed yet (look out for it nearer the day on my Twitter account) but I will be in the Comic Village section of the event. I have the usual free mini comics to hand out so please come say hi! (full list of autumn events in the blog sidebar)

Drink, Draw & Catch Em All




I invited some friends over to Fargo Village to draw and play Pokemon Go together. It was a lot of fun. Here are the prompts for anyone who would like to try them ...

Pokemon Drawing Prompts
  • Pokemon from memory (pull a name at random)
  • Draw yourself as a gym leader
  • Draw yourself as a Pokemon trainer
  • Fan-design your fave Pokemon in new Alola Forms
  • Fan-design your fave Pokemon as a Mega Evolution
  • Design a Pokemon Gijinka character (humanoid interpretation)
  • Fan-design a more majestic Dragon/Grass duel type Pokemon than long neck Exeggutor
  • Design your own ‘Pokemon Fusion’ (usually the face of one Pokemon, on the body of another)
 Drawing examples by Zee & GeenieJay


It's nearly convention season again! I convinced Sarah Fogg to team up with me again and bring some things from her Etsy Shop to ICE International Comic Expo next Saturday! I can also confirm a table at Birmingham MCM Comic Con in November.
