More "fan" doodles

I must say I've never really been into doing any sort of "fan" art, but warming up with doing these quick felt tip doodles from evangelion and gundam have been way too much fun! I think I'm gonna keep doing these as a regular thing! Check out a selection of my doodles today, the 3rd angel from evangelion and two of the mobile suits from gundam wing! (I always preferred the design of the standard mobile suits in gundam than the gundams themselves...it irks me that the gundams always looked glamorous, were the scientists who made them into bling or something? ) ...plus I should really start doodling these higher on the page to fit in their feet!

Macro Shrub #3 Poster

Macro Shrub #3 is out at the end of this month and with this month's issue you get an awesome free poster, which will look a little like this... (because this is actually the poster...)

Evangelion Sketch

After loving the gundam sketches by Jon Boam and then watching evangelion last night (if you haven't watched neon genesis evangelion then i suggest you do) I started doodling with my felt tip and blasted out this lil fan pic of eva:01 - think I'm gonna do more as it was really fun! Check it out!

Avon Cottage

Avon Cottage, you know that band I play bass in with my best friends that have been on and off for like the last 5 years? Well we're finally ready to try and take on the world this summer, with 10 new songs under our belt nearly perfected we should be gigging around June/July in london- so to get excited, here's some new band artwork from me, continuing my odd obsession with weird, naked hairy dinosaurs playing guitar, whom have cottages for heads! I promise you... you won't be disappointed!

The Legacy of Toastie-O

So at the moment I'm currently working on the content for Macro Shrub #3, due out at the end of May, and I'm deep in the midst of finishing the second part of the new Toastie-O comic that started in Issue #2. The Second part promises to have alot of ridiculous action and drama, including some of the most ridiculous characters I've made to date, so as a way to get everyone excited I thought I would do a special blog post showing Toastie-O #1 and the first 3 pages from Macro Shrub #2...
To see the what happens in the rest of Toastie-O "The Ballad of Buttertron" Part One, head over to http://www.melonshrub.com/ and buy a copy of Macro Shrub #2 now for only 4.50 including P+P!!! To see the exciting concluding battle between Buttertron and Toastie-O, be sure to make sure you keep your eyes peeled for Macro Shrub Issue #3 coming out at the end of May!!!
