The gall, the sheer audacity, to reboot Bergerac.

The best part of leveling up in D&D is getting to make new spell templates

Two circular prices of cardboard. The one on the left is black with jagged white lines like lightning, the one on the right is greeny yellow, with green skulls around the edge. They both look awesome.

Eating these horrible sweets that taste like soap just so I can use the cute little tin they came in for something else.

I don't often do commissions, but this was a fun one - a platypus crossing a bridge between an anvil and a wheel of cheese.

I had an excellent time at Phoenix Fest over the weekend, meeting all the other incredible creators from @the-phoenix-comic.bsky.social, including my pixies collaborator, @andreasschuster.bsky.social, who I've never actually met in the flesh before, despite making four books together.

Well, here we have it, this year's challenger, and it's a stark departure from previous years.

When did we, as a society, stop using the term 'big job' to mean poo? How did we stray so far from God's light?

Through a complicated series of events, this weekend @neillcameron.bsky.social ended up drawing me as a sidekick for a donut in front of 600 children, who then went on to draw me too. Here are a few of the ones I saw - please note that they all made sure to draw my sweaty armpits.

I did the cover for this week's issue of @the-phoenix-comic.bsky.social! I may have become addicted to rim lighting now.

My newest book 'Toby and the Pixies: Pixie Pandemonium' is out NOW! I'd normally link to where you can buy it in the Phoenix shop but it has already SOLD OUT, so here's a link to Blackwells instead: blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro...

In case you weren't sure I was a real nerd, I drew a picture of my D&D character, Ippolito Sconosciute. #dnd

A rather weary looking man, dressed in the slightly tattered clothes of a renaissance era nobleman. He wears a jaunty feathered cap, a short cape, puffy sleeves, bright purple leggings, and the stupidest pair of shorts you've ever seen. At his belt hangs a longsword, a dagger, and a large pouch.
