Harvey Korman R.I.P.

Slightly animated.

I'm getting really annoyed with my scanner. It just won't work with this new computer of mine, and it's pissing me off mightily.It's pissing me off, because I've got loads of new art I want to show you lot, I need to burn a lot of pages onto discs, and I've got a nice new paying gig in the New Year and my scanner will be most useful.
That's right, a paying gig!! Many months ago, I did a strip for the Jonas Moore people (a comic strip, I must add. Me taking my clothes off will not impress anybody, especially potential employers) and they want to do animations based on my drawings. It was mentioned to me before, but I heard nothing further and thought I'd heard the last of it, but no. They want me to be a creature designer for the next set of animations. This is cool. The Jonas Moore stuff is interesting, giving comics a bit of a kick up the arse, and it's great to be involved in it.

Are You Thirsty For Moore?

Remember that 'Cavemen Vs. Werewolves' strip I posted about a few weeks back? Well, it's now part of the multimedia launch of
The Many Worlds Of Jonas Moore, a computer game (and soon to be a next generation graphic novel, whatever one of them is.) starring the actor Colin Salmon (Him from Prime Suspect and Party Animals on TV, and he was also Robinson from the Brosnan Bond movies, as well as Resident Evil and Aliens Vs. Predator [don't hold those movies against him, though.])
Click on the link, go to the gallery, and see me on there. They call me Mick Trimble Mick Trimble though (so good they named him twice), but they link to my ComicSpace, so it might lead to some work. Might. Also, you can download the strip as a PDF (I'm not sure if I want to be a PDF file, I might end up on the Sex Offenders Register!) from the 'downloads' section. It's kinda exciting to be involved in a major project like this, and it's also exciting, being a 007 geek, that someone from the Bond movies (apparently he also plays 007 in screen tests for auditioning Bond girls)has now heard of me, as he was one of the judges. Maybe he'll introduce me to Halle Berry or Eva Green. I am back on the market now, after all! Knowing my luck, I'll end up with Honor Blackman.

I used to be a werewolf, but I'm alright noooooooooowwwwww!!

This panel is from that top-secret project I told you about. You won't tell anyone about it, will you? It doesn't really give anything away, except that there's an element of werewolves versus cavemen involved. I'm pleased with how this turned out. I was bored with the clichéd rippped-shirt/tatty trousered werewolf look (unless it's Lon Chaney Jr., who had the top button of his shirt done up, as well as his sleeves button right down to the wrists.), so I gave them Jason and the Argonauts type armour, as I'm a sucker for the Judge Dredd/Strontium Dog shoulder and kneepads look. If only I could get away with it here in Birmingham. For the neanderthals I used my colleagues as reference, I just smartened my cavemen up a bit.
Anyway, I have to go now, I've got mammoth-and-elk kebabs for my tea! Yum! yum! Ug!!
