AussieCon4AussieCon4 is being held in Melbourne from Sept 2-6th this year and I'll be in the dealers room doing large scale drawings and showing my work.
I've never been to one of these but I'm sure it'll be fun. I may also be in the Art show room from time to time doing the same, maybe I'll see you there- so look for theFox! (or someone drawing large monsters).
SCWBI Australia ConferenceSeptember is definitely shaping up to be busy on the promotional front. I will be in Sydney from the 17th to the 19th for the SCWBI conference, and hopefully I will be kicking ass (metaphorically) and taking names (literally) but importantly catching up with whats going on in the business that is childrens books.
Currently working on....I currently working on the Little Mates series for Scholastic, a series of 26 books for children. The first 6 or so are to be published and in the market early next year (2011) . I'm also learning Zbrush and you can see some of my 3d sketchbook as I learn. Theres some other things in the pipes and I'm also working on some personal projects.
John Cox WorkshopI attended the John Cox workshop on mould making and casting in May. It was good to finally meet John. After a childhood reading Cinefex and Fangoria, it was great to get a solid introduction to the techniques (because those materials aren't cheap!) and nice to finally have a go.
SupaNovaI was an artist in Brisbane Supanova artists alley. I did large scale drawings whenever I had the time and space-which I sold. I was joined by fellow artist Milenko Tunjic and it was great to meet people,other artists and see all of those dedicated cosplayers.
