Hi Guys, Well I have not Blogged as often as usual this year, but that is down to the workload, as I try to work commercial work, painting a number of children’s books, with my Worlds End Graphic Novel.
I hope however that all will be forgiven as I work to put out the best work of my career to date.
I have decided to show another page; or rather the first of the double page spreads from the first volume in both the form as seen in the Ashcan and the version for the Graphic Novel. I decided to show these two versions as a comparison of the work to date, so you can view what you can expect to see once the book is ready to go to print.
Below respectively:
Pages 4 & 5 Ashcan version
Pages 4 & 5 Graphic Novel version
I have also opted to put out just a few of the wonderfully complimentary comments I have received from both my peers in the comic industry and also from fans from around the world here for you guys to see. My heartfelt thanks go to each and everyone of you. There isn't the space in the Blog here to include everyone's comments and names, but these represent all of you out there that have taken the time out of your lives to speak to me about my work on Worlds End. Please know I am humbled by this and eternally grateful to you all.
“Those backgrounds of yours are really very good. If World's End is as good as those I'll be buying two copies - one to read until the ink falls off, the other to keep.”
“I keep looking at that page you sent me. It takes a lot to impress me but that really is a beautiful piece of work. The obvious care and devotion you have put into that is amazing - it's not just comic art, it is really in a class of its own.”
John Ridgway

The insanely long hours spent at the computer nowadays, as I seek to paint the best sequential art of my career to date, to show what I am capable of producing, in the way I have always wanted to do, are made ever the easier, knowing that I have the support of such talented people as those of my colleagues and the interest of fans from around the world too.
Believe me when I say these are only a small amount taken from hundreds and hundreds of such comments and emails. I read them all personally and I try to respond to as many as I can, as soon, as I can.
These messages of support mean the world to me and help to keep myself chained, metaphorically speaking, to the computer screen.
It also helps enormously that my close family and friends are also there supporting me during this period of my apparent vacation from their lives, as I work all hours to produce this book. I promise I will endeavour to make it all up to you soon.
My heartfelt thanks are hardly enough, but, like the folks who visit my Blog on a regular basis and have seen sparse posts here of late, I ask their further indulgence and patience too, as I get nearer by the week to completing the Graphic Novel.
As always I look forward to your comments.
Until next time have fun!
