Awesome T-Shirt News!

 



Woo! I can now announce that this year, I will be working once again with the amazing Genki Gear on some new tee designs! From next week you will be able to pre-order Yeti In A Snowstorm from Genki Gear's website. Keep an eye out at this year's comic cons too! :D

MCM Expo, new t-shirt design and general goodness!

Last weekend I had a table at the MCM Expo in London and I have to say, it was brilliant! The atmosphere was amazing and although it's a heavily anime-based con, my prints sold like warmed-through baked goods! Until I get proper internet back, here are a couple of pics:

My stall of colourful gee-gaws!

It was a knackering weekend but very enjoyable and as always, I made all monies back with profit. Comic cons have pretty much become another part-time job for me and I think I've found a good set of things to sell. The paintings always get attention and sold very well at MCM; key rings are small and cheap and people constantly buy them and the prints I get made are fast becoming my most popular items.

Genki Gear also had my new design on their table and I'm glad to say it sold fantastically! Here it is in all its glory:

In other news, our house has finally gone through! I can't express the sheer relief at this; somewhere to live! With a studio! And a garden! And a loft! We pick up our keys tomorrow and it's all systems go this weekend as we get moved in. Hopefully my next post will come from my all-new studio/guest room! :D

Tee design in Retro Gamer!

I've never been much of a subscriber to magazines (apart from Owl TV and Bugs! when I was a kid) but I get the awesome Retro Gamer every month through my door without fail! As an 80's kid who started out with a Spectrum ZX 128K, I've seen the amazing leaps and bounds that the world of video games has taken over the years and RG is a constant trip down memory and sad pining for my Amiga. I got my new copy through the door today and started to flip through when what did I see:

My Genki Gear design! In my favourite mag! Apologies for the bad photo; I was too excited to take a good one! Genki Gear have a few tees featured in the issue and I'm really glad mine was one of them. I wont be sneaking peeks at it for the rest of the day...

Must stop drawing Christmas!

Phew! This is the last batch of Genki Gear designs for now; I'm totally out-Christmassed. I've loved drawing very unconventional holiday designs and I've already gotten a great reaction from people. I don't get off that lightly though - now it's time for Halloween! I wanted to do some Halloween designs that could possibly be used on cards and stuff just for my own amusement and in a show of great timing, Kings of Neon have requested some Halloween shoe designs! Two birds with one stone = productive! XD

Odd Xmas Designs!

Here are the first batch of Genki Gear badge designs. I think I got a tad ambitious with a few, considering they're going to be 3cm in diameter so we'll see which ones they pick! Hopefully between work and moving house I can do the rest...

I'm very tempted to get these printed as stickers to put in my Christmas cards this year! I'm enjoying the lack of traditional/slightly odder Christmas imagery :D

More Christmas Oddities

Genki Gear Xmas Card Designs

These are my designs thus far for the awesome Genki Gear. They were more than happy for some not-quite-traditional-designs which was a bonus! I've still got some more to do as well as the badge designs. I may even make a pack of these myself to give to my nearest and dearest at Christmas!

Ghosts!

Some ghost ideas for t-shirts. I love drawing ghosts!

UPDATE: Haunted Videogame is going to be my next Genki Gear t-shirt! Woo!
