The girl all the bad guys want

 


Just a Spider-Man picture that came into my mind.
There are a lot of inaccuracies in this picture... Such as why is Mary Jane so happy with Flash Thompson?
Spider Man is asking himself the same question.

A HeLa of a lot of Trouble (in the Lab)


This picture was inspired when I came across an article about Henrietta Lacks and her immortal cells - HeLa. These cells originated from the cervical cancer cells taken from Lacks. All this happened in 1951!! The cells are still in existence to this day, The article explained that there are now more of these HeLa cells than the body mass of Lacks. This got me thinking.
What if these cells were allowed to mutate and grow in one jar?
Could a human or a creature climb out of it?
The reality of course is NO, but that is what fiction is there for.

Christine's Birthday

A Belated Happy Birthday. Christine loves her vegetable garden.
Last week was Christine's birthday. I was working on this picture at the time, but I decided to not do anything with it in the end.

And now that I look at this again... it doesn't even look like her.

More Than Colouring Pencils... A Life In Technicolour


I did this picture as part of my interview with Miss Isabel. I think my answers were longer than she expected and the interview had to be divided into two parts. Both parts of my interview are available now on the Your Favorite Eneimes' Mypsace page.

Moose going too far with Twitter


A request from Miss Isabel. She had the idea for a picture of Charles going too far with his love for Twitter.

Vintage Big Bird

I was asked to do these nearly a year ago. I still don't know why! They were never used in the end.
Big Bird (Matt) has changed his look since then.

Space... The Final Frontier

I already posted pictures of the sketches and cleaned-up line work of these two weeks ago. I finally got a Intuos4 (and yes, I am worried about the corrosive work surface and fragile USB connection) which meant I could finally colour some things in

There is a bit of a story behind them. I was working in the studio with Sef quite a bit, so I was inspired (or ordered, I can't remember) to draw a Space Gorilla based on his tattoo. I went with a "dirty" look for it, a break away from my usual child-friendly work.



Sef:
'Do you know what would look good with a Space Gorilla?
A Space Moose!!'
