The greatest film of all time turns 50 today. Great story, characters, acting, score and visuals. The perfect movie.

I’ve done quite a few pieces of work based on Jaws in the last few years - here’s a selection…. some of these are still available in my shop some are long sold out.

I have two new prints at @vicepress.bsky.social tomorrow. Creature from the Black Lagoon and Frankenstein are both films that are very close to my heart having loved them since childhood.

They are 12”x24”, available in two colour ways and also come with a ready framed option

Here’s my contribution to this year’s Stroud Film Festival Film Posters Reinterpreted. The theme for 2025 is Horror, so I chose the daddy of them all, Bela Lugosi, as Dracula.

You will be able to see our exhibition throughout March at The Stroud Brewery and The Prince Albert pub.

Random old work.
This was one of four pieces I did for the remake of The Magnificent Seven in 2017. Still quite like it as an idea but I think I’d render it in quite a different way today. Also showing the original rough concept submission.

Imagine you were the richest man in the world. You could have anything you wanted, go anywhere you wished, do whatever took you fancy. How would you spend your weekend? Depriving the poorest people in the world of food and healthcare and boasting about it?

In the new edition of La Septième Obsession celebrating the films of John McTiernan I contributed a full page illustration for Die Hard which also references the poster for another McTiernan movie.

Thank you to La Septième Obsession or inviting me back to work with them.

Film director John McTiernan turns 74 today. Coincidence or not, La Septieme Obsession also releases a new issue in 2 days time devoted to McTiernan’s work. I have a page illustration in there paying tribute to perhaps his most celebrated and influential movies.

I seem to be gathering followers at a nice pace - & not all from my industry either, which is nice.
Anyway, I figured I’d introduce myself after a year & a half on this platform :)
My name is Dave & I make comics with The God of Horror, John Carpenter. I also draw the odd poster, eat food & sleep.

Less than 24 hours until Star Wars: Skeleton Crew premieres (Dec. 2 at 9 pm ET)! As an ‘80s ET-loving kid with an ongoing obsession with new Star Wars foods onscreen, this awesome poster by @swainson.bsky.social immediately put Star Wars candy a la ET Reese’s Pieces on my wishlist for the show.
