Thanks Ben

Digital painting, tugboats at dockside

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

A photo of copies of the Angry Robot editions of Gogmagog and Ludluda by Jeff Noon and Steve Beard. Below them are two books wrapped in old map paper, a bookmark and a coaster.

"She would have to regrow herself.
Tomorrow she would begin again on the task of her life, her secret life."

The time we wrapped up copies of Gogmagog and Ludluda in old maps, tied them with string and sent them out with a bookmark and a stained Jim Brimstone's Navy Rum coaster.

Inspired by that area. Cheers

Nice to wake up to something nice though

Oh 🥇

The most beautiful book I own - probably - is The Iron Giant by Ted Hughes, a 1968 hardback. I think reading things like this as a child ‘does things’ to a person.

The Signal From Tölva on Steam The Signal From Tölva is an open-world first-person shooter set on a distant, haunted, future world. Unlock savage weapons and recruit robots to fight alongside you as rival factions struggle to disco...

It might have taken almost a decade and some incredibly heavy discounts, but I noticed I missed The Signal From Tölva passing 100k units sold some time last year.

A milestone, of sorts, for a forgotten game (which I am as proud of as anything I have ever made.) Thanks to all who worked on it!

The Ships of Innsmouth print. Ten strange ship illustrations, drawn traditionally with ink) laid out on a page. A black and white border, similar to one you'd get in an atlas or on a map, surrounds the page.

A close up of my Innsmouth print.

The Ships of Innsmouth, my latest print, is available now…

I'll do a free little PDF guide to all the boats on this for anyone that buys a print.

Here's a small portion of an animated bumper I made to promote a video game from @owlcatgames.bsky.social (Blind Descent). Seeing the latest advances in generative AI and how they've invaded space, I feel lucky to have at least produced this little piece from start to finish 🥲.

Digital painting caricature illustration of a blue 1966 Renault R8 Gordini done in Procreate. It has license plate reading “Piot 66” in tribute to Jean-Francois Piot’s imperious win at the 1966 Tour De Corse rally

An underappreciated aspect of the mid-sixties milieu that goe— ah. You’re already looking at the picture. Didn’t even finish the caption. Huh. Feel like I’m talkin’ to myself up here. That’s fair. Who doesn’t love a Gordini, thinking about Gordinis. Ok, well, guess I’ll leave you to it! Later!
