🧟 “If you don’t fight, you die.” - Rick
The final piece in a triptych commission. To the world Andrew Lincoln is best known as ‘Rick Grimes’, but to me he will always be ‘Egg’ from ‘This Life’. Yes, I’m that old! 😳

“I ain’t afraid of nothing.” - Daryl 🧟♀️
Part 2 of a triptych commission. I’ve seen Norman Reedus in so many things that I like. I guess it’s another reason why I should give The Walking Dead another try 🤔

“No one ever thinks that they are the evil one.” - Negan 🧟
Part 1 of a triptych commission. I don’t know a huge amount about The Walking Dead, but I’m tempted to try giving it another watch after researching this guy 😈
Do you watch The Walking Dead? If so, whats your favourite Negan moment?

Whether it be Black Sabbath, his solo antics or reality TV - who doesn’t love Ozzy! 🤘🦇🎸
This piece was an absolute riot to do! 😁

“They’re only noodles Michael!” 🍜 🧛 🩸
When it comes to the 80s, there’s really only one vampire movie that stands out and it’s one I can watch regardless of my mood.
This David piece was an absolute blast to do. More like this please 😁

Some recent high contrast cheeky cherubs. The bottom one does look like they are holding their head in disbelief rather than covering their eyes. I can relate.

When it comes to movie versions of the Joker, there’s only one for me - Nicholson🃏
A practice rendering of the Clown Prince of Crime. It’s always tricky getting those deep blacks on Bristol smooth.

From Lou Ferrigno to Mark Ruffalo, there have been many versions of the Hulk. Who’s your favourite? I love Ruffalos Hulk, but felt that Ang Lees ‘Hulk’ was an overlooked gem.
Either way, this pencil on black stock piece was awesome fun to do!

🐉 Dragons have appeared in folklore across the globe for centuries and with input from so many cultures, their look differs greatly.
What’s your favourite dragon? Is it from actual folklore, a movie, a TV show or maybe gaming?
I was always loved the dark, gritty look of the dragons from Reign of Fire 🔥
I love the contrast on this piece. The second part of a 3 session leg sleeve, I added cracks and chips to match an art from the first session which will give the whole sleeve a look of being carved from stone 🗿

What started out as a quick sketch evolved into a more complete piece. It had to be Raphael as he’s the best. So there! 🤪
I actually like how it came out (which is rare) and so it made it onto the studio wall 😁

Something a little different from my normal darker pieces. This stag piece was great fun to do.

It’s been a while since I’ve illustrated a blank variant and what better way to get back into it than ‘Alien’. Still just as amazing as the first time I watched it.

It was blast to do this Kessler Wolf from An American Werewolf in London. One of my favourite horror movies for as long as I can remember and the greatest transformation sequence ever seen in a werewolf movie.

Frankensteins Monster sketch.
I kept it simple and relaxed with this one. Just putting lines down where felt right with no end goal.

The Lord of Darkness.
Among the fantasy movies of the 80s was ‘Legend’. A little too dark for many audiences leading to it often being overlooked and underrated. A true 80s dark fantasy gem.

🐺 A recent wolf piece and great opportunity to work on hair textures. Next step… maybe a werewolf 🤔😉

Art the Clown! 🤡🔪🩸This was awesome fun to do! Although I wasn’t a fan of the first Terrifier movie, Art grew on me throughout the trilogy and now I find them a riot! 😁
