The Wacky Races Continues to This Day, Just Without the Live TV Coverage and Here's the Proof:

And you thought it was a cartoon? No, it's a real sport. Really. The Ant Hill Mob retired a decade ago, but the Slag Brothers are still going strong.

There's No Savage Norsemen Here...

Here's the second in my 'quick cartoon at lunch' series... although I've just been tweaking it a little a few minutes ago. I'm enjoying this, it's a bit more rough and ready, and different to my more polished stuff.

I liked the comment from yesterday, it's sparked an idea off... feel free to leave comments, it'll be fun to riff off them and see what places it takes us...

Finally, have a look at this... it's a new comic which gets posted to your door, with a whole mix of comic strips, and worth a look... it'd be good if Britain had a stronger comic book culture, and I hope this adds to it...

And so begins a 'do a quick cartoon at lunch' experiment, in the medium of biro: think of it as a sketchbook to supplement the main finished cartoons...

Let me know what you think!

Ziggy and the Robots of Doomland

And hello once more, after over a month... this involved being on holiday and having other design work to do, and the future holds some animation I'm doing at the moment for a project that a good friend of mine, Mr Jon Taylor, is working on. See what he's about at www.taylormation.co.uk, and say hi, and leave messages to get him to carry on his story via the medium of lego at http://www.mylegoshelf.blogspot.com/.

Anyhow, today's cartoon is a taster of an idea I've been wanting to draw that's been around in some form or another in my sketchbooks since I was in school, and in a change of tack for See What Happens so far, I'd like to start doing... we shall see how it develops. It's whatever is the most fun for me to draw in my spare time. Which is invariably what I'm not planning to draw. Maybe I should tell myself I need to draw a book documenting different styles of lampposts from around the world, then I might get on with one of my storytelling projects instead. As for the 'book in a year thing', well, it's still just about possible, it might just be a very tiny one. And I will need to do a drawing cram or two... I need a rich sponsor.

Happy Easter!
