Red Range: Pirates of Fireworld

The good folks over at It's Alive Press asked me to come up with a variant cover for their new Kickstarter campaign, Red Range: The Pirates of Fireworld, currently running. The book looks fantastic and I've had a blast adding my contribution. Sadly, I'm a little late on the draw, as per usual, and my pencils and inks have already sold, and folks have already snagged the super early bird copies of the book with my variant, but! you can still get a copy over here: Red Range: Pirates of Fireworld "It’s Alive! and Drew Ford are proud to launch the Kickstarter to publish Red Range: Pirates of Fireworld...the first new Red Range story in almost two decades!

Comic and Graphic Novel Workshops at Portsmouth Library

Thanks to everyone who came along to the workshops at the Central Library in Portsmouth yesterday braving the rain and cold. I had a great time chatting to you about comics and drawing.

Comic Making Workshops

Following my announcement that Gateway City is now available on Comichaus, I can add another humble brag and say I am proud to be working with Portsmouth Libraries in offering not one, but two Comic Making Workshops over the Easter Holidays. On Tuesday 9th April 2019, I will be taking you through planning and scripting to pencilling and inking! I'm doing a teen targeted session running from 4-5pm at Portsmouth Central Library (Guildhall Square), followed by a workshop for adults between 6.30pm - 7.30pm that same evening. Tickets for both events are FREE, but you do need to book in advance at a Portsmouth library or by calling 02392 688057 as there are limited spaces. If the Easter holidays is too busy a time for you - I will also be doing a session as part of the Portsmouth Festivities at the Portsmouth Guildhall. On the 22nd June 2019, I will be running two Comic in 20 Days sessions ( 11-12.30 for ages 11-16 and 1-2.30 for 17+ ). Again, these sessions are FREE, but yo
