Flynn hatched with one wing full, the other one not. But he’s a daring sort, and he simply wandered into a human settlement, looked cute and friendly, and had the adoring locals make him a wing of metal and leather. It can hold him for glides and a few flaps on calm days, but Master … Continue reading Flynn

Rocket
Another very young student here is Rocket. We thought, at first, he was maybe too young for school, but even if he is, he seems to be enjoying it regardless. He turned up on his own one day and nobody had the heart to send him away. It must be said that Rocket is utterly … Continue reading Rocket
Ruby
Ruby is an elegant creature, of a ruling bloodline in her homeland mountains. You may think, to look at her, that she would be a lofty sort but, despite her jewels and adornments, she is nearly always the first to dive headlong into the mud. Her parents expect a clean and tidy heir but here, … Continue reading Ruby
Milton
Milton is an observant gatherer. Even on standard flying classes he’ll take a backpack to fill with his findings, and a number of boxes and bags of things already stand neatly packed around his nest. His mother is the healer of his grassland flock, and he has picked up many good habits from her. The … Continue reading Milton
Rhode
As the world has been shaped and tamed by the human-folk, some creatures have adapted to mimic it, such as the gargoyle-like city dragons, and the farmhouse gryphons. This particular sort of gryphon have adopted the name of “ gryphen”, largely for the pun. Rhode is a prankster, through and through, and will take on … Continue reading Rhode
2020 -Changin’ It Up

So what’s going on in 2020? First of all, finish Silver Jill. Poor Lettice … Continue reading 2020 -Changin’ It Up
Week 09 – Inking Complete
We reach the end of week 9, and so too the end of an episode in the Silver Jill production. In order to better control my time and keep track of my progress, I decided in January to work only on the larger spreads and full pages for Silver Jill, getting the bulk of then … Continue reading Week 09 – Inking Complete
Caimwind – What’s It All About
With January and February gone, now is a good time to explain the long-term plan for Caimwind, ‘cos wow, it’s a long-term project. During 2019, as I work on completing and releasing Silver Jill, I will conceptualise the world of Caimwind in daily artworks and stories. At the end of the year, these will be … Continue reading Caimwind – What’s It All About
Weekly Review – 08
After so many neglectful weeks away from regular posts, perhaps a recap of events is in order. Though progress is presently slow, I am gradually plodding my way through the many Silver Jill pages, and I’m mostly happy with the work done so far. The odd one or two spreads may see some elements replaced, … Continue reading Weekly Review – 08
I Return!
Bonjour all! After many months, I finally return! The Here Be Dragons Kickstarter in April and May ate far more voraciously into my time than I ever thought it would, and I've struggle to catch up since. Fern fox plushies, many commissioned watercolour pieces and The Rescue Chickens Save Christmas were my main priorities, but … Continue reading I Return!
