It has not been the best few months I have to admit, mentally, physically and existentially the world is attempting to grind me down in to a fine powder... But something has been getting me through the weeks and months, something wonderful, something transcendental... something with pointy ears.

I love drawing elves, though my personal preference is for more fae & enigmatic beings, I also enjoy silly high fantasy elves too (they feature in my collaborations with @ratheranimated)

I very much enjoyed reading Dungeon Meshi for this reason among others but never imagined it would be animated, truly 2024 is the year of the elf!

Resident Evil: Benched Part 7

I started drawing this comic series two whole damn years ago as a tongue in cheek attempt to vent my mild consternation with the fact Resident Evils arguably most iconic character (Jill Valentine) had effectively been written out of the franchise for the last decade... the whole arch of the comic is Jill just being left out of the loop with each successive film/game and getting more and more frustrated with being left 'on the bench'.

The new Resident Evil Death Island film has only slightly taken the wind out of this comics sails, as Jill's decade long absence is still deeply egregious!

It can be a bit tricky getting a clean scan from a sketchbook, this is my best attempt in 3 years.

Finally finished my illustration to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Silent Hill 3.

A homage to the slightly overused 'It's bread' meme.

Silent Hill 3 is one of my all time favourite games, I played it at a very formative time in my life and I hold it quite dear.

Probably one of the worst things about so-called "AI art" is that, in an already crowded field, actual artists must now compete for visibility with people pumping out slot-machine pictures by the dozen… Pictures that at a glance look just like your own work, it's quite disheartening, honestly…

“…Or maybe you think you can save me… 

Will you love me?

Take care of me?

Heal all my pain?”

-Angela Orosco - Silent Hill 2

Silent Hill 2 was released 20 years ago in the EU this week, I vividly remember unwrapping it on Christmas day, not even the original game could prepare me for the deep melancholic and psychological journey upon which I was about to embark, nor for the sorry tale of Angela Orosco, she’s on a journey of her own, we cross paths several times and try to assist or comfort Angela but ultimately there is nothing James can do to help her, no monster that can be slain to bring closure to her story… because it is Angela’s own existence that terrorizes her.

22 years...

Silent Hill 2

From the beginning we know that Mary is dead, or at least so James believes, yet she is a near constant presence in Silent Hill, she is everywhere you look, her voice is in the static, we carry her image and her words in our pocket.

James is the player, but Mary is the game.
