Good old fashioned spookiness at Thought Bubble - THE SIGNAL MAN arrives

Not long now until Thoughtbubble folks. Here's a few of the original watercolour editions Ive been doing recently. Each one is individual, painted on handmade rag paper and tipped-in to each copy. I had fifty copies printed with a blank inside cover, with my original intention to draw straight onto the cover, however the watercolours didn't take to the inside cover as they are very smooth. I then came up with the idea of doing them on handmade paper and sticking them in. At the show I will have The Signal Man, 'Drawings' my latest sketchbook, prints and original art for sale. PLEASE NOTE if you would like a watercolour sketch could you let me know in advance as I may not have many of them with me. Original watercolour version is £20 at the show, standard Signal Man is £5. Writer JASON COBLEY will be signing too (SATURDAY ONLY), possibly the only time the two of us can sign your copy. See you there :)

Charles Dickens' The Signal Man is on the horizon

So THE SIGNAL MAN is now available for sale. I will be at ThoughtBubble with my latest sketchbooks, all with a custom coloured sketch inside. An ultra-limited version of The Signal Man (50 only) each with a original watercolour on handmade paper tipped-in, a selection of prints and original artwork.

Hopefully Jason will also be at ThoughtBubble, this will possibly be the only chance to get The Signal Man signed by both of us. See you in the New Dock Hall, table 27.

Look out for this banner. Full steam ahead.

Just in case anyone pops by - here's some pictures

A few pictures and stuff

Just lately I've been doing a lot more colour than I normally do, my poor little Reeves paint box is about dry. Here they are, all for sale of course.

This Doctor Strange was based on the great Ditko splash page for the good doctor's origin story.

BLACK BOOK and other stuff

Here's a few Black Book coloured drawings. Thanks to all those who ordered the book in advance, which enabled me to get it printed. After that initial 50 I've had some difficulty selling the rest. I've got about 20 still to sketch inside, and roughly 20+ with sketches done. It's been a little disappointing in as much as folk have asked for certain characters/sketches, then never bothered to follow the order up. This has happened on three requests, still, I would hope to sell them at some point. Some of these pictured are still for sale, but I have many others in my album on facebook https://www.facebook.com/david.hitchcock.9/media_set?set=a.10205993897300035.1073741835.1038670436&type=3

BLACK BOOK

Hello all, if you don't see my facebook posts then you may not be aware of my 100 page A4 size, sketchbook/artbook which is imminent. Many moons ago I would produce a small A5 sketchbook every year, I've not done that for a while now so thought it was the ideal time to compile one. There will only be 100 copies of this collection, mainly because

 I will be doodling in each and every one. Yup, I am crazy.

SPRINGHEELED BACK

Good day all. Well, I momentarily couldn't remember my password... that's a great start. The release of the Titan edition of Springheeled Jack seems to be doing pretty well, I was worried as the book has had a few bites at the cherry. Thanks to everyone who has recently bought it, but moreso to those of you who have forked out for it again - at least this time it's a great format, larger than the hardback I self produced back in the day. I'm really proud of it and I do hope to do a sequel at some point.

In other news, I have an appearance in the galaxy's greatest mag iminent. Pat Mill's script for a one-off VISIBLE MAN story, looking forward to seeing that one (no pun intended). I've been selling my original art just lately, and Im pleased to say that I finally got enough money together to get myself a peice of art from the one and only KING OF COMICS (you dont want to know how many pages of my stuff I had to sell in order to get it;) )
