First two panels done of my wee secret project. I really enjoyed putting the Arrivals board together as it's full of wee Easter Eggs with the plane numbers - can you spot any? #makingcomics #smallpress #easteregg

Mysterious post about a new project I'm working on. I've got a bit more to say over at BearritoPublishing.com but for the moment I'm being super vague! Sorrynotsorry! #makingcomics #smallpress #indiecomics #mysterious #secret

Been working on this page for the last week. From layout, to wasted space to panels looking too similar (and kinda dull) and then realising the dialogue was a bit naff. This was a lot of work but I'm happy with how it turned out! #makingcomics #smallpress #scifi #allagescomics

Now at the lettering stage of issue #19 and 20 of LatB but making a few changes as I go along such as giving Grizzles shipexhaust fumes rather than just speed stripes. Sure ain't environmentally friendly but it does look cool! #makingcomics #scifi #allagescomics #smallpress

Spent an AGE working on the shading of these two panels trying to keep to my original style but also working with light and shade too. I don't even know how this'll come out in print and you'll also never see this place again but I just fancied doing it! 😀 #makingcomics #allagescomics #smallpress

I've posted a bit about the first of these two pages from Fenton Hud #4 over on the website but when I showed my better half the 'advert' page they went 'Having a tough time with the Google Home?' And yes. Yes I am. #makingcomics #smallpress #indiecomics

Just finished colouring all the character panels #19 of LatB with just (just!) backgrounds and sound effects to do while still working on Fenton Hud. Here's a recent panel and 'advert' from issue #4 of that book! What do you think? #makingcomics #smallpress #indiecomics

Before I get working on colouring issues #19 and #20 of LatB I figured it's time to take a moment to look at some of the characters and locations again and re-check their colour schemes. I talk more about this over at www.bearritopublishing.com so please do check it out! Bear hugs! #makingcomics

I really wanted to have more time with Fenton and his sister Tabitha just chatting but I needed to get on to hypnotised horses dang it! (But seriously, I would love to just draw a comic with two characters just talking for the entire book!) #makingcomics #smallpress #indiecomics #facts

Following on from showing all the 'shaded' pages for issue #19 of Lloyd and the Bear here's issue #20. I know there's better ways of doing this but this is my system! 😊 #makingcomics #smallpress #allagescomics

I was all proud as I'd thought I'd finished all the line work for issue #20 yesterday only to wake up this morning realising I hadn't added debris in to a number of panels! Whoops! But with this panel, issue #20 IS DRAWN! #makingcomics #allagescomics #scifi #smallpress

Hey @theroyalparks.bsky.social Do you know why this tree/bush behind the Colicci Memorial kiosk at St James's Park was covered in spider webs? Never seen that before! #StJamesPark #spiders

Going through issue #19 of LatB and maaaan, I didn't like this panel first time around and I thought I'd made my piece with it but clearly didn't as I redid it!. I'm kinda cheating as the characters are closer than they should be but it makes for less empty space so a good trade off. #makingcomics

Old and updated panel from issue #19 of Lloyd and the Bear. Everyone: 'Wait, but the old panel is an establishing shot and shows the background - that's good, right?' Me: 'Yeah, but the new panel has a bit of a circle in the top right! Um...' #makingcomics #allagescomics #smallpress

Thundercats/Powerpuff Girls #FCBD was really fun but I'm wondering if @paulinaganucheau.bsky.social is aware that this line from Mojo Jojo can be taken in a real different way here in the UK... 😶😶😶

With the one year skip in Andor season 2 episode 4 I expect Mon Mothma to still be rocking a hangover from the previous episode. #starwars #andor #starwarsandor
