Wittertainment: Cartoonist's Corner now has a LOGO!!

Having been recently inducted into the BBC's "Wittertainment: Cartoonists Corner", along with  @MartinRowson @bobscartoons @roystoncartoons @Schism_Schasm and Daniel Postgate (son of Oliver)
I felt compelled to create a LOGO to mark the occasion...so I did!

Lest we forget

It's been a while since I nailed my colours to the mast so, while my beloved Newcastle United tears itself apart as the chronic disconnect between fans and club grows ever wider, I feel it's worth remembering what footballing god Sir Bobby Robson said, of football clubs in general, all those years ago.

Lest we forget.

Lord Steve

A tonal portrait of a national treasure...smart as a new coat of paint, wiser than Solomon and a very tall fellow!

Excelsior Out!

Who ya gonna call? Ghostbusters 30th anniversary caricature.

Finally, after what seems like an age, time has afforded me the opportunity of finishing this tribute. A monster mash up of one and two, it is a labour of love as I'm an enormous fan of both movies. 

In point of fact (along with Empire magazine's Nick de Semlyen) I think the sequel is marginally funnier than it's progenitor, with a cracking, gag infested script, great support characters (Max von Sydow voiced Vigo and Harris Yulin's Judge Wexler standing out for me) and Bill Murray absolutely inhabiting Venkman's easy, wise-ass charm.

I hope Ghostbusters fans everywhere get a kick out of it. It is available to buy as a print (and other merchandise) on my Deviant Art site:

GB 30. Finished linework.

After much messing about the above is the final layout for the GB30 caricature. This finished linework will now be coloured, special effectified and the logo put on...and then viola! All when I have the time 'natch!

Excelsior out! 

GB 30....rough pencil design.

Here's my first take on the finished design. Elements need refining, I'll try a few others. Baby-steps with this one.

Ghostbusters 30...Tonal Sketch

Further work on the "Ghostbusters 30" project, a tonal sketch of the 3 primary characters. Rick Moranis, Ernie Hudson, Annie Potts and Sigourney Weaver will follow soon...and the some design ideas.
