space chess

The Cosmic Game, I originally posted the working doodle for this illustration on the "reverse" themed  IF but it works just as well here for "space" :)

+ now it's finished and in colour!  :))

There goes Arzach...

I started this drawing a while back, Arzach's always been a favourite of mine, and with the passing of Jean Giraud/Moebius, it seemed appropriate to finish it now.

If you know neither Moebius, Giraud or Arzach, to get an idea of how significant this man was (and continues to be) have a look at these: article and 1987 interview.
I for one (and I didn't even know the guy) am heart-broken, but thankful. Thankful also that he left one last Arzach behind... I'll read it soon Jean, promise.

basking hound

Una is our Basset, and today she's playing mascot for About a dog, a project in collaboration with The Lucky Lucy Foundation, to raise funds to rehabilitate dogs rescued from dog fighting organisations in South Africa.

Let's hear it for Una and About a dog!

Oh dear! What's happening in Usana now?

who's who in the...

Awright, not quite a zoo but given time I'll have drawn them all!

While these were for Heinemann specifically, animals are still one of my favourite themes so I'd probably have drawn them anyway :)

Usana pg17

Come along, the latest page of Usana is up, it's time for the adventure to really begin...

Bioscope

Funny, portraits have been popular lately, here are the ones I did for Bioscope Films, a Johannesburg based production company.

Once again, I got to play with a style that was new and fun, I love jobs like that!
