11:44 am - ITS MA BIIIIRRRRTHDAY!
hooray
i got some rad stuff and there's more to come apparently! Notably some spiderman cufflinks and a shirt with kermit's body on... SO MY HEAD IS HIS HEAD. brilliant
i also got a tasty new multitouch tablet which is ULTRA
but an unexpected gift, and one i cherish, is that of ENGRISH. everybody loves a good bout with badly translated packaging so here's a coupla rounds with the box for a christmas present i bought one of my mates:
i particularly love 'the solid thing that doing not face will bounce shoots'
I WANT TO BOUNCE SHOOTS!!
in other news i discovered a fantastic website. www.illustrationartgallery.com. specialising in signed and limited edition prints by huge name comic book illustrators. And the prices aren't ridiculous. some are down right affordable. this is art for me. well drawn technically brilliant stuff at a price people can take home. check some moebius and manara i found there:
 
that last one, the manara is amazing, and only 75quid! im THIS close to buying it. literally hovering over 'buy', it could be a bday present to myself...

11:07 pm - THINGS AND STUFF... yeah?
here's a couple of recent things then
things that i am most happy with... i had the sketches of these out at leeds comiccon and got a lot of tasty feedback so i thought id colour them up all nice.
when i got to leeds, i was overwhelmed, the place was huge and just walking to my table i saw more talent than i had seen under one roof ever before. I decided that if i sold ONE thing i would be happy, as competing with some of these fine stalworts of the keyline was next to impossible.
Instead i nearly sold everything! i got some of the best feedback i have ever received and chatted to some awesome artists (Will who draws the awesome 'The Sea' and Lou with her rad 'Mephisto' books) who also liked my stuff and bought it! i was amazed. I drew pretty much solidly from 10 til 5, sketches for random dudes. i must have drawn three batmans, a gambit, a rorschach and a coupla wolverines.
people really dug my stuff which has just fired me up so hard.
im gonna get my head down now and crank my brain wheels, get the hand printing and the head thinking

12:08 pm - Im sorry livejournal...
I feel ive been a bit mean to poor old livejournal.
Its not that i don't care, its just... well its not you its me... so, and, well, hmmmmm
in short, i'd like to make it part of my life again.
all this talk of people (artists ((comic book artists)) ) using livejournal AND deviantart AND updating their websites always seemed like too much effort for me, but HECK! HOLD ON THERE JIMMY McGEE
THIS IS MY FREAKIN CAREER
nothing should be too much effort in that vein. I should be eating, sleeping, drooling, dreaming, horking, screaming, sewing and cleaning comix... and I am. Im just NOT blogging and self promoting, shamelessly plugging and marketing
so here we go, the beginning of a better online Nich. its starts here and continues on into space, riding the infinity cascade until i hit the galactic roof and break the 5th wall, ending up in the lap of the person who is reading my story... and then i will punch him in the face and scream BUY MY COMIX before diving back into the pocket universe i call my drawing and churning the barrel until my eyes turn into Tintin eye dots and my hand seizes up into a ginger root.
i hope this has been informative for everyone
sorry its been so long
i love you all

11:47 am - THE CANS FESTIVAL
The cans festival was amazing... it was crazy. me and friends dave and kate raced up to london, it was around a 2 or 3 hour trip to get there cos some of the trains were off... we didnt get there til 9. the place closed at 10!! we were in london for under and hour and then we zoomed back to salisbury.
BUT IT WAS INCREDIBLE... the sort of event that just needs to happen more... not necessarily street art but, open to everyone, free entry, incredibly varied, adding your own stuff allowed and backed by brilliant tunes.
it was an amazing hour and ill let these pictures speak for themselves...
