London MCM Comic-Con May 2013

 

Well, well, well....it's that time of year again already.

Yup, MCM Expo (or Comic-Con as it's now known) arrived with yet another May bank holiday weekend of unpredictable weather, raging seas of people and 'free hugs' signs.

 

However, for me there was one small difference - I was seeing all this from the other side.

 

No, no - I'm not saying I'm dead. But for once I was sat behind a table, among fellow budding artists, illustrators and comickers - enjoying my first London Expo as a member of the Comic Village.

 

As you may have seen in the aforementioned posts, my new products this time around were another pair of custom painted shoes; Dragonball Z themed, a new custom painted t-shirt; Totoro themed and some new art prints - two Star Wars portraits and a bizarre Regular Show illustration. The Universal Horror and the Fan books returned, as well as The Grinning Man (which I here tell that Orbital Comics have long since sold out of! Not to worry - more on the way - thank you to those who shelled out their hard-earned cash for them) so all in all - not a bad haul with which to face the teeming crowds.

 

 

 

Thank you to all who purchased prints, small drawings, shoes, t-shirts, books and the like. I hope to see you all at the next Comic-Con in October, and maybe - just maybe - you have decided to attend the London Film and Comic Con this July, in which case I may see you there.

London Super Comic-Con 2013

Phew~! Well, that weekend went past almost as a blur of people, sketches, and lots of tea. Compared to EMS back in October, I had a little more to offer this time. The Universal Horror booklets were back alongside the two new books; The Grinning Man, and the Mike Read Has Beautiful Breath fan book - a big thank you to all those who picked them up - I hope you enjoy them.

 

Besides the books there were numerous other items on show at my table, such as notebooks and prints, plus wearable goodies such as Ni No Kuni hand-painted t-shirts and Adventure Time custom painted shoes. The latter ofcourse went rather quickly, after the fuss made at EMS over the not-for-sale pair. Again, thank you to those who do now have them. I'm sure you'll look after them.

 

 

Also yet another thank you goes to people who commissioned one-off sketches, and those who bought the ones produced at my table throughout the weekend. I hope they were worth your while....and wait. See you all soon at the next one~! ...Hopefully.
