I have updated the Strange Alchemy Shop with a new prints section, you can currently choose from five high quality 6′x8′ photo prints. They look great, so buy one for yourself and all your friends! If you have requests for a print that isn’t currently available let me know! 
Hi all, I have opened a new print shop at MySoti.com where I am offering, for the first time online, prints of my work. Right now there are 3 pieces to choose from, at either A4 or A3 size, in poster or canvas formats – ‘Rainbow Bird Cave‘ looks great as a box canvas!
Please check them out and if you think they would make a nice gift for someone you know (or maybe just for yourself!) you can order them through the website very easily. I’d love to hear from anyone who buys one!

Thought Bubble in Leeds was fantastic fun! A big thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello and to everyone who picked up some comics too!
It was my first ever ‘convention’ – excluding No Barcodes in Camden market earlier this year – and also my first visit to Leeds, so full of new experiences. We didn’t get to see much of the city, between traveling and selling comics, but the view from the hotel window was nice!
I’m not pulling a funny face, I’m just munching on my breakfast apple! We managed to get the table setup pretty smoothly and I was really happy with how it looked, I also managed not to forget anything, not bad for a beginner huh!
Here is the table from the front, notice the little Turtle Guitar character model in front of ‘Bitter Herb – he was our table mascot for the day – he really enjoyed himself!
Finally here is a picture taken by Richard Bruton of Forbidden Planet, which is the only photo of me not eating an apple! (And the table looks pretty good in it too!).
Thanks again to everyone who stopped by - see you again next year!
