My Apple Pencil has inexplicably died. It’s connecting to the Bluetooth, is 100% charged, and the tip is screwed on. I need it to finish designing the oracle deck asap. I guess I’m ordering a new one, but I can’t swing the cost rn. 😖

Can I get some eyes on my shop?

I’m selling original artwork like this, an unpublished illustration I made for The Woman in Black. I’ll post the originals & their prices on here & you can also purchase giclee prints for £75 (Free P&P - UK only - but I also ship internationally) visit nicktankard.co.uk to see more.
A black & white illustration in cross hatched pen and rolled printing ink on white paper. The dark shape of a woman stands over a man sleeping in a bed. The room is Edwardian in appearance, metal bedstead, old style quilt, framed pictures on the floral wallpaper. The man has his head buried deep in a pillow, he looks troubled. The woman is silhouette against the moonlight shining into the room, she is imposing and creepy. Spooky and atmospheric.

Another pencil crayon study. This was quite tricky and it’s not really finished, but I’m really enjoying using real pencils.
A pencil crayon drawing of a rocky path through some small trees with white trunks. It’s Autumn in the Scottish Highlands and the ferns at the sides of the path are orangy brown, and the trees have already lost their leaves.

MUMM-RA! THE EVER LIVING!
Mumm-Ra the ever living from TVs the Thundercats. The eighties is a very long way away now, isn't it? and yet in some ways it feels as close as ever. Would you believe I'm nearly fifty years old? It's incredible. And I'm starting to feel it a little as well. Oh well, onwards and upwards. Please enjoy this drawing!

An illustration of mother Goethel, the witch from Rapunzel. She stands in the center, surrounded by thorny bushes and between two crooked trees, holding a baby wrapped in luminous white cloth and her eyes glowing a malicious golden color. In the foreground we see rampions growing from golden vines which intertwine like braids; in the background, in the distance and in the middle of a forest, we see a lone tower a red squirrel knight, with body armor and a cape, holding a lance in one hand and standing on its hind legs, with a golden halo aroung its upper torso and head. the beast (from beauty and the beast), appearing in the middle of a dense rose-bush foliage, gently holding a tiny bird in its huge paws and looking at it with tenderness. the castle tower can be seen in the distance. toe-thrasher, a rat lord wearing a royal mantle made of white fur, thrashing in the middle of a swamp in its hind legs and holding a black flail. in the swamp, there are numerous yellow eyes

Evolution of another cover...
Rough sketch of cartoon animals, lead by an elephant with a little mouse atop his head, bursting through a line of Roman soldiers. A wolf and dog growl at each other in the foreground. Coloured artwork of the previous sketch, with the elphant changed from an Asian elephant to an African elephant. Same as the previous artwork but with the mouse now on the elephant's trunk and a Roman emperor clinging on top of the elephant's head. One of the soldiers who was being knocked back by the elephant has now been replaced with a gladiator. Final artwork where the emperor is now riding rodeo-style atop the elephant, who now also has great big eyebrows. The gladiator's armor has been adjusted and recoloured, along with other minor changes to colour and character position.

I'm targeting getting our Alex Potts Kickstarter to 100 backers by the time it finishes in 3 days! We're currently on 77, can you help us make it? There are some great extras and add-ons, but most importantly, it's a work of absolute brilliance.
