Visited Drumlanrig Castle yesterday, which has a very large art collection. You're not allowed to use cameras inside because the work has been stolen before so insurance says no, so I got my sketchbook out and had staff hovering over my shoulder as I drew xD (they liked it)
Details for Small Press Day in Leeds run by @leedscc.bsky.social next week on the 25th. I'll be tabling alongside a bunch of other v cool artists!! Poster by @robluckett.bsky.social
All my upcoming comics events - next week is small press day, I’ll be at an event hosted by @leedscc.bsky.social at Brew Society in Leeds :D I won’t have copies of Ladies of the Knight (not this time but hopefully for later!) but I will have other short comics/artbooks :D

Sell your book in five words: Grumpy, sunshine. Unsolicited mentorship situation.
“Beat them up for me.” “huh?” “Win the game, you know that thing you do for a job.” “Oh yeah…” ladiesoftheknightcomic.com
because I can’t just fill my days screaming about my book (you should read it ofc) here’s some character designs for another thing I’m writing. There’s plants, and magic, but there’s still errant apprentices doing things they shouldn’t be.
LADIES OF THE KNIGHT wouldn’t have been possible if I didn’t join roller derby 12 years ago, so to celebrate release day I went and refereed some derby. Thank you to the worldwide derby community for continuing to be the inclusive, amazing badasses you have always been. Skate hard, turn left.

Oh and in case anyone was wondering my current bribery of choice is the Jinhao Shark fountain pen, neon green, with a moody grey green ink inside. You can just about see his wee face...
Late night experiments, trying to keep things more simple than normal and I still added more details than I aimed to XD

Did some portrait figure drawing with friends, I actually quite enjoy the chaos of my 30 second and 1 minute portraits so decided to trace them afterwards to make better characters out of them. Cartoonist at heart.
