Digital version of my latest commission. Is Drift print-worthy in 2025? (Well, 2026 when I next get to a convention). Or are all the kids into Shredhead these days?

NGL. Not pointing fingers at people, but I get a bit peeved at all the 'Divorced energy' jokes people throw around like frisbees these days. Check your fire, please? Maybe a lot of your friends are divorced, and didn't end up there for being sexist shitheads, but just had to go separate ways.

Also, only tangentially related, my dad worked on this tunnel boring machine pictured, and one of those lads in the picture could easily be him. We grew up with framed diagrams of it on the wall, and the things (there were a bunch of them in his life) loom large in my imagination.

Dipped back to Twitter this morning to see what's happening there, and oh boy, oh boy. It's a dah where all the 'Community' memes are coming out to play.

I learned this weekend that my favourite burrito place in Belfast (and the reason for at least 2 trips there) has opened a branch on Bold Street in Liverpool, and I might just be the happiest human being on the planet. Finally too shelf mexican back in the city after the tragic loss of Lucha Libre

love me some sakuga yuri kissing

That the last moment was truly my last moment, until the life finally drained from me. Time cursed me, but knowledge did not. That afternoon, I lived fully. Laughing, rolling in the grass. But the emptiness of the future. Without me, dulled down into in a single sentence, "I'm dead." #Megaman

Without downloading any new pics, describe your gender.

Just got a nice fake message claiming my account was restricted and was going to be permanently deleted unless I click this dodgy looking link RIGHT NOW. Skeptical eye on the inbox, folks.

OK, so now that the convention is over, I finally feel OK to share this (big thanks to @nickroche.bsky.social) Prior to Josh Burcham signing on, I took a swing at colours on Nick's pinup. It didn't make it into the final book, I'm still proud of how it turned out. #Transformers #BskyArt #MechaArt

Conservative policy globally.

this goes hard tbh

FB reliably informs me it was ten years ago today that my mature content comic Corporate Skull started appearing in The Guardian. It still doesn’t make any sense to me why that happened 😬

Commissions for Reading TFN are open! Due to my current workload, I'm only able to offer head shots, but for the first time I will also be offering them in colour, too! £30 Black and white £50 colour Please either DM me here or send an email to [email protected] with the subject TFN25!

This week there's a NEW #Turtles comic book on shelves, from the creative talents of John-Paul Bove (Writer), Ed Pirrie (Artist) and Kat Cardy (Colours)! @wordmonger.bsky.social & @edpirrie.bsky.social will both be at TFN:Mini-Con® Reading - come armed with questions! TURTLE POWER!!! #TMNT

Final count. 79 sketch cards over 16 days. Hell of an inktober in the end!

Just gonna come out and say it. I don't think the optics of having a transformer called 'Race Master' are particularly good.

no movement on this, very worried how next month is gonna go without our snap funds. I don't want my kid to have to go without, I'll gladly do so in her place. But even half of this is better than nothing.

Pokemon fans, how are you finding ZXA? Love it, Hate it? The digimon side of the fence is very much like 'Pokemon has fallen, I, Time Stranger am now leader of the decepticons!' and I need to break my filter bubble on it a bit.

Stop scrolling and post 2 characters who bring you happiness.

Having dental work done for the first time in my life ever today. Really nervous about it. Annoyed at myself for being nervous. I never get white coat syndrome of any kind, so this is really weird for me.

I’m a hack to who just really loves doing homages! (Cover is a(n) homage to FF #49, of course) #TransformersOne #FantasticFour

Did a new one

Remarkable the spikes in opinion change and what they coincide with. - Mid 2017 during the negotiations, people realising 'oh shit, we're fucked'. - Jan 2020 withdrawal agreement ratified, and conservative propaganda arm in full swing, trying to mark this as a historic victory. - Jan 2021...

Tee hee! OH WHIRL... A commission from earlier this year!

It's spooky season meaning it's a good time to repost this again #leaguerposting #ironleaguer #ringu

wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...

Could a future of fascism be upon us? A devastating wake-up call from @chrisgpackham.bsky.social

Guys new scamming method on bluesky. Please share this around. Dont fall for this stuff Block, move on.

Seeing this get some notes again, not sure why though. Still, glad more people are being made aware of this potentially happening in a few months.

Jim does the layouts and letters for our books. If you’ve ever looked at our work and thought “boy, that looks professional”, he’s the guy responsible. Your book could look like this too!

Making sweeping statements that dehumanise and villify entire strata of humanity that you've never met is bad, actually. I'm sure there's a word for that even.. begins with a P.. Pre... something.

They're making the sunsets transgender!

Got completely destroyed by Viola's Surskit in #Pokemon X, and envisioning her battle dialogue was really funny to me. Like what is she getting out of this

Newage Cannonball aka Scorch / Fire Road Another impressive remould from Newage. Not as successful as the Animated Ratchet but it's great to know that they're pulling from some of the more obscure corners of #Transformers. I know he's G1 and not G2 but he'll look better with the G2 guys.

Hello #portfolioday. I'm looking for some more #comicbook #lettering gigs. I also do design and pre-press. Thanks! jimstaffordlettering.carrd.co

if you know, you know. #transformers #art

"Pentagon access is a privilege, not a right," Hegseth said on social media. "Credentialed press no longer permitted to solicit criminal acts." Public oversight of Government *is* a right. You don't have a right to keep secrets from the public. They give you your mandate. They pay your damn bills.

Well didn’t take long for the most predictable thing that people have been saying Would happen if we all started uploading identity verifying documents to servers to happen to happen.

Commission 4 @lnfini.bsky.social 💥 #art

if the hardcore band looks like this you are going to die in the pit

Just imagine the kind of sick mind that would incite a violent riot at a Limp Bizkit concert

This viewer cares. So, that's one. Any others?

Just a heads up for folks, you probably already noticed, but I'm not taking part in an october drawing challenge this year. Time is rare & valuable, and mine is all crunched into projects and comms right now. Slowly working through my list. Resting when I can. Will post more artwork when I'm able.
