The year is over and so is my work on Amber Atoms Issue 5, look forward to seeing it in print in the new year. I'll get some preview images up as soon as possible.

All the best to you folks, I wish you much success. And let's hope that the comics industry picks up in 2010, I could certainly use the cash.

My head is spinning with the amount of work I've had to try and complete over the past couple of weeks, the majority of it unpaid. I'll have to stop helping people out from now on.

Just some things you guys should look out for:

Shaun O'Neil is drawing a story by Robert Kirkman for Outlaw Territories, keep on eye out: [link]

The Anthology by Ronin Studios, Hope: The Hero Initiative, supporting the Hero Initiative charity is nearing completion. I suggest you keep an eye out on the charity website: [link] and Diana Greenhalgh's Devart pages for future information: [link]

The community at Digital Webbing are at it again with a new Anthology, with the project headed up by the fantastic Chris Stevens. Be sure to check out the forums for news and art updates, as well as a chance to try out for the book: [link]

The first draft of my novel is nearly finished, I'm hoping to complete it over the weekend if time permits. If not in the next two days, then over the following week.


Cheers.

EDIT: Forget the next two days, I have just now finished the first draft of my book. YEAH SON!

Another chapter of my book is complete... Man...

Been working on my novel nearly every day for... God knows how long. Months and months and months, over a year I think actually. The last few chapters seem to be taking forever, and I'm at the point of just wanting to finish and get it edited. But being impatient will ruin the writing and make the editing stage harder, so I'm pressing on and going at a good pace.

I've been working on 'Amber Atoms', scripted, penciled, inked and lettered by the fantastic Kelly Yates. Apart from a small delay in recieving pages, I'm pretty close to finishing the colours in the book. It looks pretty good, with a style taken from my experience colouring 'Samurai VS Ninja'. Be sure to check out the first story arc from the first four issues of the comic, published by Image Comics and in comic book stores now! I take over colouring duties starting with issue #5.

I've made the jump to twitter: [link]

I figure that if I've got some work coming up, it'd be a good way to network and promote. Feel free to drop your usernames and follow me yourself.
