Continuing my Lego cover versions of Guy N Smith books for the GNS fanzine I'll be publishing next year. Here's 'The Reaper'.

Good news during my hospital visit to see my consultant today. She is taking me off the methotrexate and putting me on biologic injections instead. Hopefully, these will be a godsend. Got some nice pics as I made my way home too 😊

Guy N Smith - The Neophyte (Blue Cat Edition)
Tuesday, December 12, 2023
Big thanks to Carl Heeley. You are a true gentleman. 😊I have been after this edition of Guy N Smith's The Neophyte for what seems like an age. And then, out of the blue, I get a pm offering me it to me. And not a penny had to change hands :) What a fantastic early Crimbo present. 'Chuffed' would be an understatement.
GNS - Doomflight, Lego Recreation and Re-imagining
Saturday, December 09, 2023
Guy N Smith's Doomflight - my Lego recreation of its classic book cover (title graphics not yet added - you'll get to see that in the forthcoming fanzine) and my re-imagined Lego cover.
GNS - Doomflight
Friday, December 08, 2023
My Guy N Smith Lego project is progressing nicely, with photographs for The Dark One, Nightspawn, The Sucking Pit, Caracal, Werewolf by Moonlight, The Slime Beast, Alligators, The Camp & The Cadaver already in the bag. Still lots to go... but I am keeping the final pics of the Lego cover reconstruction (not my re-imaginings) for my forthcoming book exploring Guy's imagination. So if you want to see them, look out for the fanzine's publication sometime in the first half of next tear.Now it's time for Doomflight. I will be recreating both the actual cover for this book, which is probably my favourite of Guy's book covers, as well as making my own cover version, which will feature the mysterious druids. As usual, watch this space...
GNS: Claws and Teeth

I'm proud of my Lego Caracal, but I need to borrow his claws for my next Lego GNS cover shot -The Sucking Pit! I've been looking forward to constructing this one.

Guy N Smith - Ready for the 1st Photoshoots
Saturday, December 02, 2023
 |
| I just need to find the font used on the original 70's book now, and make a Lego version of the NEL logo. But that's for another day... |
With one photoshoot done and God knows how many more to go, I cracked on with a couple more shoots later in the day. Although I usually love the cover art of Guy N Smith's books, I'm not the greatest fan of the cover photography of my favourite two novels of his - Nightspawn and The Dark One. To be fair, they also aren't the easiest to reproduce in Lego form either. And so I've recreated two of the grimmer graveyard scenes in the books to make my own cover versions of horror novels.
Nice to see you again :)

I Will Miss the Sunrises and Rainbows
Monday, 27 November, 2023
My team in work are being relocated to a new floor in the New Year. I am gonna miss the views from my current location, and not just the spectacular sunrises. This rainbow lingered for almost half an hour, and grew in intensity with each passing minute.
