Jonday - so long and thanks for all the tablet!

Hey!
It's my last day on Scotch Corner today.  Regular readers of this column will have noticed I sometimes miss my posting day, and that's getting more and more frequent.  With that in mind it's time to resign myself to the fact I'm just too darned busy to maintain a presence on a daily artblog, even if I only have to post once a week.

Thanks so much to Graeme for all his hard work in maintaining this community, and his commitment to keeping it going and keeping everyone posting.  The huge consolation in switching over to being a reader rather than a poster is the amount of cool stuff posted here that I can enjoy as a civilian.

I'll leave you with this image I made last year for Imagine FX magazine, which I recently heard had been printed in a collected work on how to do art and stuff.  I liked this one for it's simplicity.  It doesn't really need any words to accompany it.

Bye!

Jonday - Doctor Who Origins Award.

So I happily took delivery of an Origins Award Statue this last weekend in America-land for our work on the Doctor Who Card Game.  It won Best Traditional Card Game at the Origins Awards earlier this year, and they make the statues to order.

Here's some of my work from the game:

Jonday - Rocket Age

Shouldn't really be showing this, but we'll call it an exclusive.  One of the many and splendid perks of being the art director on the project, I guess.

Jonday - not actually dead

Apologies for my prolonged absence.  I keep running out of Monday.

Here's a variation on a recent cover I did.  Graphics by Paul Bourne.

Jonday... Sometimes...

... there's just nothing to say about an image.  It is, as they say, what it is:

Jonday - rocks

Wow! Rocks!
