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

Thursday, December 07, 2034

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.
