New year, new decade.
Time to look back a little...
I partially blame Carman/Richardson for this.
I was taught to draw mainly from my grand-dad as a nipper
and as I grew up I started playing computer games and
watching adult movies (not the mucky ones) I loved the
posters/covers and animations and the cartoons/comics
and every bloody visual thing that was thrown at me.
These images are circa 1994/1998 when I was obsessed by
Japanese Manga and Anime.
At the end of the 1990's my infatuation ended, although I do read
the odd comic and watch the infrequent cartoon it's a far cry from
"back in the day."
Although I do have the sneaky suspicion that a lasting impression
has been left on me and my work.
