Now... a big post of mixed stuff, old and less old... First, something dark and bizarre... An image I started ages ago when I was going through my 'girls with swords phase' (it's a phase - recognise the fact! Like eating peanut butter and Marmite on Digestive biscuits is 'a phase', or Worcester Sauce flavour Twiglets is 'a phase'). I decided to tweak it into shape with the idea of making it into a mock movie poster, but it ended up being more like a poster for a play; some sort of pseudo occult classical nonsense. Used a few over-laid textures to age and 'atmosphere' it up.
The last Character of the Week (ChoW), a re-design of 'Barbarella' or Mrs Jetson as someone pointed out generously.
An old Character of the week, John Carter of Mars, from the Edgar Rice Burroughs stories. This probably could do with more time on it, but trying to keep the Chow's quick was part of the idea. Aah, girls at the foot of an heroic chap... (what's that all about then?)... how timeless...
Based on a song by The March Violets, 'Dress for You'. It's ketchup, she's a messy eater. Bit of a play with a brush or two downloaded from CGHub and supplied by the generous Ditlev
Another old Character of the Week, 'The Magus', based not so loosely on Aleister Crowley, A bit of a mish-mash this image, but I kind of liked the face.
And some sketchy stuff. A sky pirate and a couple of cowboys from long ago!
A drawing done for an art exchange anniversary thingy on GorillaArtFare. We each were given another artist to do a version of one of their images I got the wonderful Karla Ortiz. I chose to slightly cartoonify one of hers, and made a right pigs ear of it!
Finally a real oldie, an instruction I did sheet for one of the old Halcyon model kits, this one of Judge Death sculpted by the excellent Colin Batty

Awesome update Aly. Really love that top Image!
I'll be sure to pop to the Bristol Con. You'll enjoy it, It has a nice vibe and atmosphere about it. Just be sure to bring lots of water as it tends to get very hot and sweaty, plus you get a dry mouth from talking all day.
It might be worth arranging some sort of sketch meet while you and Matt are down there. Lorenzo should be in the vacinity too, plus some ca members are based at UWE. Could be a nice little event if your up for it. The Bristol Museum usually has some interesting things to look at, so it could be a good place to start perhaps?
Oh and lovely work as usual, I really like observing how you go from your sketches to your paintings.
Always happy to see new (or old) stuff :)
Thanx for putting these up Aly.
Love seeing the old model kit sheets! =)
Should be there with the 2000AD guys so hopefully seeyou at Bristol.
A sketch meet would be good - a lot of the artists do this for a small fee so might be worth thinking about scheduling in a few hours each day if you feel like it.
All the best,
Wiggz
Nice update, good selection of images. I'll be visiting the Bristol Con too, would be nice to meet you in person.
