So JJ Abrams is directing Star Wars Episode 7. That's so cool. He's a die hard fan of the original trilogy. Hopefully we can get some of that mojo back. And maybe even see an older Luke, Leia or Han. I've always been a massive Star Wars fan. since I... Continue reading

I toyed with not sharing this drawing. A Superman commission I recently completed. Now I've tried to draw this before. In pencil. And I really don't think I captured the image well enough. It's something to do with all the subtle lighting on the face. It's incredibly tricky. So I... Continue reading

I've watched Skyfall twice now. Second time really underlined how good it is in my opinion. Daniel Craig is well established as 007 now. And it's a really great Bond movie that does interesting things with the character. Not an easy job after 50 years and 20 odd movies! I... Continue reading

Working on finishing things up before Christmas. So I can have a clean slate and a fresh start in 2013. This is the first thing I'm done with. A drawing of Sylvester Stallone as John Rambo. I think it's from the 2nd movie. I'm more of a Rocky fan myself.... Continue reading

Last Indiana Jones for a while. I promise! This was a recent commission. Someone liked a small drawing I did a while ago. So I did a larger version. Continue reading

What's that you see... Is it... A bit of colour!! Here's a little experiment I did with coloured pencils. I look around and see all this amazing work done with coloured pencils on the net. It's something I really admire. And wanted to start having a go at myself. And... Continue reading

Sometimes someone sees something I've drawn and really want that for themselves. I drew this image of Han Solo a while ago in my Moelskine. And since then I've had 2 commissions to draw the same image. So today I thought I'd share them with you. One in ballpoint pen.... Continue reading

For the past few weeks I've really struggled with drawings I've worked on for myself. No matter what I try and do I always seem to get bored halfway through and give up. This is the reason it's been a bit quiet around here lately. I've literally only had the... Continue reading

I've drawn Indy so many times now. It's always interesting for me when I get the chance to do something different with the character. I know it might not sound much. But simply dropping the hat takes away one of the crutches for drawing the character. It's a nice challenge... Continue reading

I'm currently working on a couple of commissions. Indiana Jones and Superman. So as to not bore you all to death with the same old thing. Here's a drawing I worked on a while ago. That I gave a little polish so it was ready for the world. It's ballpoint... Continue reading

I seem to be getting quite a few Indiana Jones commissions at the moment. Which isn't really problem for me. As I love drawing the character. I just don't want people getting bored of all the Dr Jones drawings around here. I swear. I really think I'm getting close to... Continue reading

Sorting through a pile of unfinished drawings I found a couple of pieces I'd never got around to polishing up. It's nice to come back to a drawing and be able to see it with a clearer head. So here's the first one. A ballpoint pen drawing of Arnold Schwarzenegger... Continue reading

With all the James Bond drawings I've done over the last year, it's amazing to me that I've never drawn Pierce Brosnan. Especially as I loved him in the role. And I feel he was only really let down by weak films after the excellent Goldeneye, and decent Tomorrow Never... Continue reading
