| Biography: |
I am based in Cambridge, in a random little village of obscurity. Funnily enough, so is a certain Ms Leong! ^_~
I was a winner of Tokyopop's first UK and Ireland Rising Stars of Manga competition and of Neo magazine's 5 page manga competition.
My professional appearances range from magazine articles (Neo, Artist & Illustrator), through tabletop card game illustration (Herocard:Cyberspace) to having contributed to several tutorial and resource books (Digital Manga Techniques, Draw manga).
Just recently, I completed work on a 200 page graphic novel adaptation of Hamlet for publishers, Metro Media. The book will be published early next year.
For some reason, I find the word 'badgers' to be highly amusing.
I adore my Sweaty companions and love little more than coming home from a con with a bag full of independent comic goodness. Hats off to all you creators out there. ^_^
Under my Sweaty belt:
Dragon Heir (which I WILL continue, honest!)
Love Senseless
The Politics of tears
Baz
Give me my Romeo
Focus
