Morning, Bluesky. Two days and a wake-up until the start of much-needed change in the UK. As there’s some confusion, here’s a tactical voting guide from The Progressive Alliance. Everywhere not mentioned, it’s safe to vote Labour.

I’ve been playing God Of War (original) on Steam Deck and it keeps freezing and killing the whole machine. Anyone else experienced this and know any solutions?

I’m rebranding my anxiety attacks as Satanic Panic.

Tried a book accurate Rooster Cogburn

I forgot I was exhibiting digitally at TCAF and the store is online! tcaf-digital-marketplace.myshopify.com/collections/... Go find all my books digitally online and perhaps buy something else from some incredible creators.

While at the library front desk I also heard a woman complaining to the staff that it was too noisy: “…in my day you used to be able to study in peace. There were rules about this sort of thing. “

Gentle reminder that your local libraries are amazing and have a surprisingly good selection of comics. Also, Strange Skies Over Berlin is a very good standalone story, thoroughly recommend.

PEPSI SMASH ON YAHOO! MUSIC 2007 What a wild ride the 00’s were.

Kind of fascinated by this idea of Farmers pushing for Universal basic Income. As a native of Galloway, where the farmers are super-tory for the most part, the idea that Brexit fucked them so badly they are pushing for mega-socialist policies is delightful. www.bigissue.com/news/employm...

Society of Authors are holding a meeting in May on several important topics. A big one is that they are proposing that they say NOTHING & do nothing about the conflict in Gaza. If you are a member, like myself, you can register to vote in the meeting & say you wish them to do otherwise.

The Kickstarter campaign for STARCROSSED is LIVE!!! A brand new 72-page fantasy adventure graphic novel from me, @alfiegallagher.bsky.social and @hassanoe.bsky.social! Loads of different rewards to suit all budgets! Please check out our page and RT if you can! www.kickstarter.com/projects/fra...

Never in my hundred years of drawing comics have I ever had so much trouble with a page. I must have redrawn it 8 times over; frankenstein-ing panels together, chopping up borders to create different layouts, straight-up tracing other drawings, etc... It's been a nightmare. 3 nights I've been at it.

I've been drawing a little mini Jacques story for a thing, and to warm myself back up after a w long period of inactivity. I was really struggling with this panel & dumped all my previous attempts. I loosened up and It came out so much better than the ones I had used photo references on.

I have 4 hand drawn bookmarks left (out of 10) for sale on Etsy.  All of the money raised will go towards Save The Children for the emergency work in Gaza. And this time, here’s a link that actually works. www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1...

Finally caught up and watched the new TMNT: Mutant Mayhem animated movie, and thought it was excellent. Really fun and distinctive character design and development.

I’ve drawn some bookmarks and and have them for sale on my Etsy. All of the money raised will go towards Save The Children for the emergency work in Gaza. www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1... (

Just in case it's useful to anyone, here's a breakdown of information on my recent Jacques books including specs and costs. I'll add more details as I think of them. A thread...

Here's some filthy noods (noodles the dog) for those of you that need it. Dial 999 for more hot noods.

OK Comics got in touch with me recently and asked to buy a load of my books wholesale (not sale or return!) and it made me so grateful to them. So I hand drew 30 book marks to give away with the books. Please go support them (and me) and order a book. okcomics.co.uk/products/pre...

I usually keep these Space Captain boxes solely for sale at conventions as they are a pain to pack and ship, but I am drowning in stock right now and need to start shifting books! Jump on a deal and get these limited collectors boxes. 20 available. www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4...

Want to exhibit your amazing work at Thought Bubble Comic Convention 2024? Applications are now open. The deadline is February 21st! Find out all the information, and application form here: thoughtbubblefestival.com/exhibit

Steam Deck owners - Is there really no way to connect a bluetooth headset and it's mic? I can connect the audio, but the mic always reverts to the Deck's internal mic, which is useless.

Seeing everyone’s copies of Jacques arriving, while sirendipidously being in Paris is a fun feeling.

It's Bandcamp Friday! I almost wrote 'bamcamp'. Like, BAM! THIS IS A GREAT BOOK! RS Vol.1 would look extra good on your bookshelf, coffee table, and in the stack of dusty readers in your bathroom. BC waives its fee today! So, that means we get 100% of the revenue. BAM! 🍖 risingsand.bandcamp.com
