I found this the other day whilst thinning out some old sketch pads. I seem to remember that there was a bit of trouble that meant the con never actually went ahead (if you remember what it was, let me know) but by then I'd already done this.

I haven't actually done any 'anime' stuff for years now. Of course, I started out as a (pretty poor, when you look at it) Japanese-style clone artist but that was at a time when it was new and everyone was excited about those 'manga cartoons'. Nowadays, it seems pretty commonplace so I've made a concious effort not to do that kind of work and, instead, just incorporate elements of it into my own style.

Some days, though, you do just hanker after drawing a wide-eyed girl with candy coloured hair in a mech suit.
