When This Is Over.

I'll tell you one thing I won't miss when this is all over...

When you have a violent coughing fit, and the dread suddenly starts to creep over you that it could be the first signs Corona, and you immediately check to see if you have a temperature.

I miss just enjoying a good cough without freaking yourself and everyone else out.

War Games.

Hoping to broaden my portfolio a bit and do a few War themed bits of art in 2021. Here's a little peek at my latest project and what I've been up to this week. Just basically trying to figure out how to draw a Beret correctly.

I know Babayka Land has a pretty strong War theme going on already, considering most of the cast are Russian Mercenaries. But I wanted to do something that just felt more like a classic English WW2 comic.

I do like playing in the War genre, but drawing all those pockets and pouches does drive me crazy sometimes. There's always just so many.

In The Jungle.

Since people can't go out right now, I thought I'd bring a little bit of the outside to you with today's post...

Considering I've been drawing rural Russia for the last ten years, it's been really nice to take a break and draw something a bit different. It's been weird and even a little bit helpful, researching and drawing jungles while in lockdown.

 

I'm happy to say I have been slowly getting back into the swing of things since the end of 2020, and look forward to sharing more artwork with people very soon.

They Know You Are Sleeping.

Why do things that bleep and\or flash like Mobiles and Fire Alarms always run out of juice and need their battery changing in the early hours of the morning? Never in the daytime.

It's like they know you're asleep and they want to show you who's really the boss.

The Most Magical Time Of The Year.

Wow... that nice little period between Christmas and New Year just seems to get shorter and shorter every year. It feels more like a quick weekend, than a whole week. Just those few days of peace and calm before the chaos of a new year starts and everything goes back to shit.

Apart from the freezing cold nights, I wish I could exist in a Groundhog Day style time-loop, and just live that tiny part of the year over and over again.
