Hello there
Was gonna post this tomorrow, but I got it edited quick enough and Saturday is for Cabin Fever. Almost certainly no art tomorrow though, as that's not been possible.
So, there's a bit of a health update at the beginning of this but after that it's mostly just general babble. There's also a bit of music that I think was a better idea than the reality.
Mainly just touching base really, take it or leave it of course.
Hope you are all safe ...

Hello there
Quick update before I tell you about my second day in hospital;
Time of writing: 2:54am this morning, after the FIFTH pain attack of the last 24 hours.
Writer’s location: My house (discharged to manage my way through it at home)
Stone Location: Still shy and nestled inside the host (although occasionally stomping about without warning.
Present mood: Worn down, antisocial and...

Hello there
So that there’s something here, I decided I’d write you a little hospital diary.
I can’t promise great entertainment, but I can certainly assure that there will be a no holds barred logging of all the trauma and upset, which – if you think about it – is actually an excellent tool for making you feel better about yourself. Or something that you can skip past, as I would with my ultra-squeamish head, on account of it being all a bit icky and oversha...

Hello there
Second go of writing this because the shiny new patreon app appears to be just shiny rather than fit for purpose. I was trying to add pics and it just shut the whole post down.
So it’ll be a short one and you’ll have to wait for my hospital pictures. That was a little clue as to where I am.
I’ve been in A&E for the day and have now been admitted. Dunno how long for but a 5mm stone has just stropped out of my kidney and is set to make its m...

Hello there
Assuming all went to plan, this scene (actually an extended spoiler-heavy version of it), was on the big screen at MAC last night, and now it is exclusively here for you to have a watch on a smaller screen.
It's not actually spoilery at all in this version, so you are safe to watch it whether you have been able to see the movie yet or not. If you have seen the movie, you'll maybe notice a little moment that has relevance to the bigger picture, so there's somethin...

I can't remember if I told you or not, but I did actually have a Halloween art post in mind for today. You know, what with it being Halloween?
I made a planned Haunted Mansion collage, which I was (and still am) intending to do. It's sort of in the style of the ParaPod/Ghostbusters art pieces I did, but you may remember that each one of those took me several solid days to put together. This week, I've not really had either the time n...

Hello there
EDIT - In this podcast I discuss travelling to the Bishop Auckland screening. Subsequently the gig has changed to just a screening, rather than with a Q&A. For the record, I did not pull out of this screening (I'm in Leeds typing this after driving up half way a day early). Apparently the venue have been saying I pulled out, which is absolutely untrue, and when the promoter called me I agreed to the terms providing this was made clear. I o...

Here I am delivering the first part of the Marvel - What The Movies Didn't See mini-series, in which Kim Wilson improvises a story from scratch with specially chosen characters from the Marvel Universe, whilst I stick my oar in as and when.
If you've heard any of the previous incarnations of WTMDS then you know exactly what to expect. If you haven't, then I've no clue how to go about preparing you for it. Just...don't let it ruin you...

Hello there
I know it's not Halloween today, but this was the gap I had to include it this week. You are more than welcome to save it for Sunday, to read around the camp fire or whatever people do. Maybe give the kids a fright as a bedtime story? (Definitely don't).
I actually abandoned this story last night, as I was having great difficulty finishing it off. I was all set to not post today, reluctantly, but awoke at 5 this morning and had another crack at it. &n...

Hello there
I’m writing this late at night (woah, big exclusive) during a break from writing another thing, as I wanted to get you up to date with the movements on the movie.
A word about the other thing I am writing though. I usually do “something” vaguely Halloween related for Halloween on here, and this year I am writing a short story again. I’ve been doing it on and off this week, and am trying to put the emphasis on the “short” bit. I’m also us...

Hello there
If you heard my Cabin Fever podcast at the weekend you shall have heard me pondering the option of taking a day off patreon today. My appearance here, wherever you look or get notified, would seem to imply I did not do that.
Which would be half right. I like to think of this as a gestural post, where I bring you something, but not something that I would normally sign off as a proper post. It's going to be mostly pictures I think.
So, my...

Hello there
Well this is all very exciting (admittedly primarily for me and maybe people exactly generationally like me).
I have completed my quest to draw the first 12 Kenner/PalitoyStar Wars figures from the seventies. You may have noticed the other five drawings I did on here (there's two figures on each), and today I present you with the progress pics and then the final pic. AND the pic of them all together which I am delighted with.
Slightly l...

Hello there
If you are a regular listener/endurer of my weekly babble on the Cabin Fever podcast, you will know that I am prone to jumping all over the lilipads in a rather haphazard and distracted way. This week's effort is the ultimate tribute to that, perhaps because it's a late recording to get it over to you. I would say, if you already have a headache then I'd steer clear. Certainly don't drive after listening to it.
The vague contents are as follo...

Here's a little prelude episode to the forthcoming What The Movies Didn't See MINI-SERIES (3 EPS MAX).
If you are unfamiliar with this podcast, it's where I give Kim Wilson a selection of characters from an existing pop-cult franchise and she improvises a story on it, whilst I give an ongoing commentary on her efforts. It's usually fun.
You won't have had to have heard any of the previous series to endure this one, and it is just a short one...

Hello there
So I wanted to film some behind-the-scenes stuff from the latest Rocky Robot video, but it was already so overwhelming that I didn't add to my workload.
However, I did do a retrospective behind-the-scenes this evening, showing you the little tricks I wanted to get on the record, and this is it. As you'll hear in the video, I have done this as much for me as I have for you, because I will forget how I did it and then I can go back and check this video (I'...

Hello there
Literally everything I typed in this space yesterday, applies to today.
Except for there won't be another part to the podcast tomorrow because this one concludes the answers.
And also the questions for ASK ROCKY need to be in the comments section of yesterday's post, not this one.
Thinking about it, very little of what I typed in this space yesterday applies to today.
You get the idea though - and part two of my Ask Ian replies is right up ther...

Oh no... this is what happens when somebody asks a question about The Muppets. Literally can't help myself...blabbering on for ages.
So we are in two-parter territory, which is actually all good for me as I was started to moot the idea of having a day off tomorrow due to daft roughness and fatigue, so this has now made the decision for me. You get part one of my answers today, and part two tomorrow. Works like a dream.
