Everyone go download the comics and let me know what you think!
Life in the Mulbiry Villa was good, they spend their days farming the rich land, fishing the bountiful waters and hunting the woodland buffet!
Creeping though the deep, dark woods, our hero made his way to the oldest tree. It glowed lightly from the inside as the forest mist swirled around. Approaching the doorway-like mouth he became aware of a vast cavern deep within, a labyrinth carved out from inside the hollow tree…

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!
I am working on a lot of stuff I can’t talk about right now, some exciting stuff coming up towards the end of the year though! Here is a shot of my desk from today, spooky!!

Hi everyone!
My comic Turtle Guitar is in the new Layer Zero (by Insomnia Publications). Layer Zero No. 3 is entitled Choices and it is released on the 11th of May. Layer Zero is a collection of fresh comics artwork and stories by young and emerging creatives, you can pre order the book on Amazon, or if your going to the Bristol Comics Expo this year Insomnia will have it available there – I can’t wait to take a look!
In unrelated news, strange whispers of a new story are being heard within the forests of Afar…more on this soon!

Ninja Mountain Podcast
Some friends of mine (Jon Hodgson, Andy Hepworth & Scott Purdy) among others, have been involved in a new podcast for artists and illustrators (primarily working in the fantasy and sci-fi field, although I think the podcast would be of interest to any freelance creative) named Ninja Mountain. They cover some great topics discussing loads of key aspects on the industry, informative for beginners and entertaining for the seasoned pros. A new episode is released every week and they have already been going for two months, so there’s a great backlog of episodes to go through if your a new listener. Check out the Ninja Mountain Scrolls blog for all the show info and links to download services (including iTunes). Enjoy!
