Neville trying to fly a broom for the first time, storyboarded sequence There’s bits of Calvin (from Calvin and Hobbes) trying to ride his bike in there and some Linguine from ratatouille :) #illustration #kidlitart #comicart #harrypotter #comic #funny #graphicnovelillustration #storyboard

From a pencil sketch that made me laugh so I inked it up. That scene in the first Harry Potter book when Neville tries, and fails to ride a broom for the first time :) Bless him #illustration #art #comicart #kidlitart #harrypotter #funny #graphicnovelart #comicillustration

A page of morning warm up sketches. I'll open a book from one of my favourite artists/writers and do a page of studies to understand why a pose works etc. This was from cabin and Hobbes, the main movement, the FX, the emotion still inspire me every day #sketchbook #art #drawing #dailysketch

@louiestowell.bsky.social this is for you Talking to my children after their french club this week one of them naturally asked what 'to fart' is in french, it's 'Péter' - to blast. As in to blast from yer end. So the already terribly named AI ChatGPT, in french: Cat, I farted Vive la phonetics

It is our little dude's birthday today (he's now 7 earth years old) so I made him a handmade card....of the worlds greatest hero, captain underpants The message is 'Happy birthday earth person' :) #illustration #comic #comicart #kidlitart #ink #captainunderpants #art

Hurrrrrrrrr-haaaaarrr! I found myself sketching Chewie on a sketchpad - I liked this pose so I inked it up :) #illustration #comic #comicart #kidlitart #starwars #sketch #dailydraw

I usually start the day by filling a page of A3 with quick studies from my favourite artists. This is my take one of those lovely scenes from Calvin and Hobbes, Calvin's mum with a cup of tea. #dailysketch #sketchbook #pencilart #calvinandhobbes #comicart #kidlitart #illustration #comic

@louiestowell.bsky.social this is one for you - we've been watching the highlights of the euros with our children and we play guess the country based on their flag and names. Last night Iceland played and I had lots of fun trying to explain how they use the old (I think it's old Norse?) names...

Just heard of a possible reboot of Indiana Jones. Interesting.... But how can you beat cinema perfection. My own version of the coolest opening scene, ever #indianajones #indyjones #illustration #comicart #art

Indiana Jones and the lost world of the Dinosaurs. Here's betting good money the 'reboot' team gets archeology and paleontology confused

Waaaaaaah! That awkward moment when you both meet a new species for the first time #illustration #comicart #comic #graphicnovel #art #characterdesign #cartoon #ink #sketch #scifi #kidlitart #blackandwhite

Colour wash over ink gives a nice look to my character design sketch from a story idea I'm playing with :) He's a regular bloke that ends up having epic adventures :) #illustration #storyart #characterdesign #comicart #graphicnovel #ink #art #kidlit #scifi #kidlitart #sketch
