Welcome to the home of Lloyd and the Bear, Urp, and all things Mac & Cheese related!

Every weekend I plan to post an update on how I’m getting on with Lloyd and the Bear or what related project I’m currently doing!

I’ll be dropping Urp! strips at random intervals when a thought enters my head. Is Urp me? Um……. maybe (not?)

And hey, I LOVE Mac & Cheese and I’ll be dropping my reviews of new dishes and eateries I come across along with recipes and facts every now and again!

New prints – part 2!

And it’s not only another updated print but one that, like Woolbearine, has been updated twice!

It’s the bear with a mouth, Tedpool!

Having gone with from the cover from issue #1 of the original Deadpool limited series to the original movie poster of the first movie I decided to be original and come up with my own Tedpool print!

I only had two ideas for this one, the one I went with and a shot of Tedpool through a hole in what looks likes a rather famous honey loving bear….

It really came down to wanting a clearer picture of Tedpool and also less guns (as in zero) in the picture (because knives and slashing is okay, right…?)

But yeah, it was time for a change. The original picture is crazy old and I realised that it’s been a good few years since the first Deadpool film came out so yeah, time for something new!

And hey, do you recognise any of the bears I’m giving a nod to in the picture? I’ve only just realised that I missed out Yogi Bear! I should totally have had a tie flying through the air! Dang it! (Hmm…. maybe in the update of this updated picture? No?)

I really hope you like this one – it was a load of fun to put together!

More soon! Bear hugs!

New prints – part 1!

It’s almost time for MCM London and that means new prints!

And hey, as you might have worked out I do like updating things and this time I’ve gone and done an updated Woolbearine picture!

The two pictures on the left are the old ones that I’ve done in the past and I’ve been feeling that it’s time to bring out a new one!

As you can see, I’ve kept with the Snikt/Knit pun but my big thing was to have a proper full body shot of Woolbearine rather than of his head!

I ended up not using any old covers to parody for this one although I almost did….

Do you recognise what was my inspiration for these ones?

The one of the left was super tempting and I had plans to have the starting of a jumper on Woolbearine’s ‘claws’ but I had an issue with it still being a headshot!

The other sketch was less of a contender and I figured that the sound effect running in a different direction from the logo might come off a bit confusing.

So yeah, full body shot with sound effect (which was inspired by the opener of the old X-men cartoon) became the winner!

So what do you think? Do you like the new print?

Let me know on Facebook or Twitter using the hashtaq #Woolbearine

More tomorrow with our next print (which is also an update of an old one!)

Bear hugs!

Back to work!

So I’m back from MCM Scotland set in the fantastic city of Glasgow (hey, I’m biased) and with a day off I’ve been busy continuing my updates on issue #14.

As I’ve said before there’s not that many changes to make in this issue and here’s an example of some of them small changes.

As you’ll see I’ve made a few changes to Rizos’ face as I found it kept changing throughout the issue. But yeah, with these panels I got to make another change/improvement too – getting Rizos to pull off a much better imitation of a scene from the movie Ferris Buellers Day off where Jeannie Bueller faces off against Ferris!

What do you think? Did I get it right?

And with that, I’m back to work! More soon!

Bear hugs!

New (and old) puns!

So although MCM Scotland is coming up next weekend (I can’t wait to get back up to Glasgow!!!) I’m already planning ahead for MCMLondon and I’ve got four new parodies planned for it!

Check them out!

Now hey, I’ve done two of these puns before (and actually both of them have had two different prints to boot!) but I’m up for doing something else with them!

I’m super excited about all these puns and what I’ve got planned and obviously I’ll post on here what I come up with!

SO EXCITED!!!

More soon! Bear hugs!

A quick one for this week!

…and it’s a bit late too (again!)! I had some other things I wanted to post about this week but unfortunately I ran out of time!

Speaking of running out of time, I’ve finished updating the writing and fonts in issue #14 of the comic and got a seriously low number of panels that I want to redo – and even then a lot of cases is just adding things like fingers to Lloyd and Bear who are currently sporting circle balls for hands!

And yeah, it’s really clear how I was running out of time on this book with my self enforced deadlines as the final pages sure had a lot of circles for hands!

I’ll be showing more of the new panels over the next few weeks including new (and returning) parody prints I’m working on for MCM London (sorry MCM Scotland, I had too much going on to be all prepared for you guys but hey, I’ve already loads of cool stuff for you anyways!)

More soon! Bear hugs!
