MCM Manchester Comicon

A few weeks ago I went to my first Convention in Manchester. It was so so much fun, lot's of cool costumes and awesome things to buy. Already thinking about my costume for next year :) Here are some of my favourite photos from the Sunday

 And here is my Astrid and Stormfly from How to train your dragon 2.

 And a bunch of goodies I bought....could have spent a small fortune.

Illustration challenge

Things have been a bit quiet just lately for me, I've been struggling with being productive and as a result it's making me feel very down in the dumps! But the last few day's I'm beginning to pull back to my normal self and realising I'll never get anywhere with sulking. So..... I've set myself a challenge to get more work done and enjoy the process again.

Other projects I'm working on at the moment are Halloween ideas. I'm designing some characters at the moment and have plans for screenprinted plush, cards and cushions! 

I'm also attending a Comic convention in a few weeks so I'm in the process of making a costume. I'll be going as Astrid from how to train your dragon! This is the first time I've been to a convention whole dressed up so I'm really looking forward to it.
