Drunk Beatles

It’s been a long and winding road but Drunk Beatles has finally seen the light of day.
The book presents the history of the rehab four from the dive bars of Hamburg to the
rooftops of London in 28 pages of alcohol related song title puns.

Available from my Etsy shop as a single volume or with an accompanying sketchbook
charting the evolution of the project over the past several years.

Rooftop Moptops

Remember that Beatles project I was farting on about earlier this year? Well it's back. So to celebrate here's a drawing from earlier this year...?

Mystery Tour

The Beatles project is in a state of limbo at the moment as I've yet to find the time to refine the vector art, but galvanised by tonight's showing of Magical Mystery Tour I thought I'd share a few of the sketchbook pieces for that period.

Another month goes by without a post, but I have been busy scribbling away. I'm currently putting together ideas for a Beatles related project which hopefully I can begin rendering in Illustrator soon. I'll be sure to keep you updated as the project progresses but for now here's a selection of character sketches to wet your appetite.
