Here’s the completed image. It was designed as a full spread. That means nothing important in the way of the center fold. Also, not much is happening on that right side because it would have a fade over most of that half with text overlaid.

Treehouse WIP 3
Here’s the scene with a few more leaves and the characters roughed in. I’ll adjust the placement a bit and work on the proportions a little. Need to figure out how to do the folds on the lower girl’s shirt. Then comes final lines and coloring.

Making progress…
Treehouse WIP 1
Something I’m working on at the moment.
Pirate Reading
A pirate boy reading a book from his treasure chest. I wonder if it’s Treasure Island?
Robots in a Bookshop Cafe
Here’s a silly picture of robots reading in a bookshop cafe. I liked the idea of something so digital-age as a robot doing something so analog as reading from a paper book.
It was fun to design all the different kinds of robots. I almost drew it with all sorts of movie/TV robots instead. You know, brainbots, cybermen, C-3PO, Wall-E, etc. But I think I had more fun making up my own.
Not sure if you can tell at this resolution, but this cafe serves oil, batteries, memory sticks, CD’s, and the odd bit of hardware as robot snacks.
Here’s a close-up of the counter.
Extra Eye
Drew this for fun today. No particular reason. Just had the idea in my head. I didn’t quite get the angles right, I think. Close, though. Since this is just a personal little doodle (not paying work) I’ll leave it.
Self Portrait
My hair isn’t usually that curly, but it’s fun to draw curls.
You ordered an adventure?
This is an illustration inspired by a mini-story posted by A Small Fiction. Here’s the link to where I found it: https://www.facebook…
The story went like this:
A dragon was at her door.
“You ordered and adventure?” it said. It handed her a sword.
“Now what?”
“The tip.”
She poked it.
“You win!”

They have a bunch of small stories like this. They’re fun. Check out their page for more.
Anyway, here’s my illustration of it:
Mermaid – Corrected
Okay, those waves were really bugging me. So I tried again. Much better now, I think. 🙂
