Thanks for all the constructive criticism, guys. This any better...?

I think maybe the bio-chip stands out too much, now. *sigh* Why are these things never finished?

infintiatly better and more interesting than any of the ai generated stuff sharkey.

Some amazing sketches there. The Boo Cook & Dan Cornwall Dredds are both excellent. Tried to get a Simon Fraser Dante but he was already fully booked out by the time I got to him sadly - maybe next year.
I wonder how many Chimpski's PJ did over the weekend or if our 3 were the lot ? They would make a nice triptych lined up alongside each other!

there was a lot more than 3! (*I just like drawing different chimpskys if I can)
(was great fun, glad I went!)

The old adage - Looks better in the flesh - has rarely been as true as when applied to Trooper McFad's models. You think they look good on here, if you ever get the chance to see them in the real world - well wow they'll blow you away even more.

I was lucky enough to see them at Lawless (yes Trooper McFad has the energy to carry a literal crate of his models around!) and they are simply amazing seen up close.

Thanks Colin like all "creators" I'm always critical of my attempts but the reactions I got from the original creators were great.
if I'm lucky I'll match up more models with creator's next year so another crate will make its way down- any of the following would be good
Winslade
MacNeil
Eldon
Annette
Any one or all of these would do 😁

Ben willsher and I really enjoyed using your acrylic white pen you accidentally left behind after I signed chimpsky! I did try and get it back to you, but it was also bloody useful -so ta!

I'll be there all day saturday and about half day Sunday, so if you're after a sketch, or summit, hit me up early! (*and hit me up often!)

Draw by my then 14-15 year old brother. He could draw rings round me, but didn't pursue art.



Obv a copy of the bisley original. Eyeball copied on paper.

Blobs has definitely stayed with me. I can picture the Ron Smith art. Crazed brilliance.

Indeed. Horrible, haunting eyes.

The dude with the glasses looks like it might be based on Alan Grant.

Honestly felt for all the many many flaws of that first one, it looked beautiful (well, monster notwithstanding) all the space stuff. And I did laugh at the space startion butt venting all the gas...

(It did feel like a faint echo of rose, Doctor turns up and starts running and keeps running and no-one has any time to relax and just be...)

I already have one of your pages on my wall PJ, but you may well see me in your queue asking for a Noam Chimpsky 

Monkey's Drawn While-U-Wait - that's the PJ guarantee.

I'm going to take this at face value, in which case EXCELLENT, I'll be in that queue too!

If I say I think Noam's an ape, rather than a monkey, that's not going to help my chances for a sketch though, is it? So I definitely won't mention that. Nope.

Apes, I'm afraid will take longer.

I'm going to Lawless for the first time this year (just the Saturday). Mainly hoping to get some sketches. I've only been to one other Con, NICE in Bedford last year. That was great but queued over 3 hours to get an Alan Davis sketch of the good Captain (not that I regret it of course, well worth it).

But are waits like that normal at Lawless as well ? If I want to get something from say Chris Weston or Pye Parr or Glenn Fabry, do I realistically need to just choose one to make a bee-line for and then wait it out ?? As I say, this will be my second show so don't know what's 'normal' is in terms of waiting times.

Not far off the term "Platformers"

(My colleague's childish attempt to make their first game in the early 90s by typing "a really good boxing game" into a text file and hoping for magic to happen is still, I think, not here. It is closer, though.)

This is unrelated, but when I got my first computer - an Amstrad CPC464 in 1984 our neighbour came round and said and wanting to be impressed by what computers could do, she said "Ask it where my Victor[her husband] is" we all laughed because it was a preposterous, don't be silly. But of course, I am frequently asking my phone where my kids are.

Actually looks like your work PJ.

Can confirm: not me.

Who did the rogue trooper print? Pretty sure that's not Steve.

I love asterix and the gags in English are arguably better than the gags in French. But as a kid I skimmed all the names because they were all complicated looking things that ended in ix or us and that looked hard. Regret it.
