skin too!

Fetishman is news on the skin two site! woohoo!

The timing is pertinent: later today is the "skin two north" fetish market where I be a-selling comics and art, and then in the evening I'll be doing a reprise of last year's portraiting at the skin two north ball. Finished packing an hour or two ago. The maths of stuff-into-taxis increasingly persuades me that I need a car. Or a truck. Or a steam-powered traction-moped that folds out in to the stall at the press of a button, but then everyone knows that already …

Also, I've been chatting away with a gentlemen I met at the SFX weekender and he reminded me that the Romans did a whole pile of things better. And first. Really, I wish I'd invented the penis wind chime but no, they had to go and do it 2000 years earlier.

So, finally got to the sfx weekender, having a sly booze with the gathered lovelies, and then lydia of genki gear says "i'm at my wit's end trying to figure out how to get more followers on Twitter."

Oh foolish lydia! Please help mock her foolish wishery with copious following!

#ff @genkigear ! Do it!

Warm it up, everything you’ve got!

January! Why are you so short!? WHY?!!

So yeah, clearly i didn't get enough done. Anyhoo, I've nailed a couple of deadlines, finally caught up with my laundry (towards the end it had more than hint of timorous beastie to it), worked on the museum, did some commissions, volunteered for some more stuff, wrestled a bear? No, not sure that happened., but anyway, as January wanes we find February heaving in to view and I'm back off out to events and that. And they're absolute stormers!

It's sold out i think but 4th-5th february is the SFX magazine weekender! 'tis a shame that museum mk2 isn't complete in time but nonetheless me and the unstoppable Mavis are crashing with the charming Genki Gear guys (I have 2 new favourite mugs, one of which is a beautiful Genki-Gear unicorn) at an event that really does have a mighty line-up including both Mr Rankin and Mr Pratchett.

Weekend after, the 12th feb, is the annual Skin Two North Ball! Yep, "the UK’s biggest fetish festival outside of London" is once again at the loft in Leeds. And like last year I'll be selling comics and nonsense at the daytime fetish market and then in the evening i'll be a-portraiting for the gathered cognoscenti.

(Ahahaha! Sarah's on the front page of Skin Two Events! Wearing my glasses!)

AND THEN … after a brief interlude for my now-regular birthday barbarian party (yep, it's not complicated) … there's the Cardiff International Comics Expo on saturday the 26th of February!

And if this isn't enough there's always the Valentine's fetishman strip in the thinking persons small-format-porn Foreplay Magazine.

(balls! i'd better make valentines cards! aaaah!)

Like an epic lie-in

Waiting for the 8-40 from kings cross to Leeds having just spent the laziest 8 days with Alex in old London town. Didn't see the muybridge exhibition, didn't draw as much as I hoped, did watch epic ammounts of dvd whilst be-blanketted on the sofa.

Anyhoo, January's going to be a busy make-ening month as opposed to a touring month. First event of the year should be me and the travelling museum 2.0 at the sfx weekender in Feb, but i'm getting ahead of myself as I first need to tell you more about version 1.0.

For now I wish you all a delightful 2011

me personally, I've just done a programme for the bradford steampunk panto "mandrake's marvellous machine", finished an xmas commission, and gotten a big chunk of museum done. That said, there's not much to show for now cos even I'm not sure what it'll look like til it's ready on sunday. That said the world is full of awesome anyway …

for example, cartoonists i know, under the influence of pat and heidi, have been hard at work. And in between that work they've been seeing gimps in stuff.

also, it crossed my mind i should post more of the random things i think are great, because you know, you guys are bound to as well. This next one by cartoon-comic-ist Jess Fink, creator of the brilliant comic Chester 5000xyz … as well as a comic for Mindless Self Indulgence (on learning which i probably did shout "awesome!" in a bill & ted way and fall off my chair):
