AUTO ASSEMBLY 2009

Auto Assembly 2009, so far the best UK convention experience I have had. AA 2009 (Not to be confused with Alcoholic's Anonymous) was held over the weekend of Saturday 15th - Sunday 16th August, at the Holiday Inn Birmingham City Centre. With over 500 attendees, it was a tightly packed crowd that created a great atmosphere.

Thanks to all those who kept me busy for my entire weekend sketching, and my other artistic friends for supplying the laughs and fun on the evenings. I had a great time amongst fans, toy dealers, voice actors and artists. A weekend of non stop sketching and fun is something I never mind. A big thank you to Simon Plume for running such a well organised and great convention.

ANIMATED A GO GO..

The last of Titan's Animated Strips has come and gone. The Short Lived, but excellently presented Animated Strips made it's appearance within Titan's Transformers Universe final issue ≠25. John Mccrea was due to do fully do the final issue but with a hectic workload and page 11 fully finished handed his layouts over to me. It was nice to be involved in the final issue especially as I had handled the first 6 pager. Here are John's layouts along with my finished artwork. More on Transformers Animated soon...

WHAT THE!?

No, not the classic Marvel US Comic book. Transformers Universe 24. Another Great Issue from Titan with the fabulous Transformers Animated Story Megatron's Revenge. Pencils and Inks by Lee Bradley! (Yep that's Me!)

Unfortunately there was a bit of a slip up and John Mccrea the lead artist, and good friend was credited with the work on this issue. For my work to be compared or confused with a veteran comic book artist of over 20 years industry experience, I take as a great compliment!

I have to say John Burns has done an outstanding job on the colours on this one. Making the story by Simon Furman an even more enjoyable and striking read. Out Now, in all good Newsagents. GO BUY IT!

If you check out page ten of the story (above) you can see my ever present logo. I always manage to sneak it into my work somewhere, its my personal Where's Wally.=)

REVOLUTION!

Issue 23 of Transformers Universe has now just come and gone, with great reviews as one one the best issues yet! I thought I should celebrate this with sharing Jason Cardy's fantastic colours on this issue which really brought my humble artwork to a new level. Cheers Jason!

The Re-Revenger!

From Comedy Central's The Demitri Martin Show 'Important Things'. Comes the latest episode of his sketch show, Power. From the recesses of his mind comes the Revenger or Re-Revenger as he is ultimately known. A guilt-wracked superhero who doesn't know where to turn after discovering the origins of his father's death. With initial Black and white artwork for the comic sequence provided by John Mccrea, I came on board the project and provided the colour art, logos and lettering for the finished look. Enjoy! I did.

So Whatever Happend to...?

Titan's UK Transformers Animated Comic issue 5. As many TransFans Know Issue 3 was the last issue produced of Titans latest new comic book. Due to unfortunate circumstances the title had to be canceled at short notice, leaving fans of the new UK story lines in limbo. John Mcrea was the lead artist on this title and produced both issues 4 & 6. Covers were also provided for these issues. I was lucky enough to get my second shot of drawing the Transformers Animated Universe characters in a main strip with issue 5. Shocks aplenty in this issue with big battle scenes and Multi character sequences. I can say It was fun! Keep an eye on Titans Movie comic book for more updates, great story's and artwork on a monthly basis. Oh yeah, and Transformers Animated!

TRANSFORMERS UK 23

Another Day, Another Post, Another Job. I am proud to announce I am the artist on Titan's premier UK Transformers Title for issue 23. Providing the pencils and inks for this issue was a blast, especially as it is the start of a new story ark by Mr. Furman. Transformers and action a plenty, I got to handle a good mix within the Movieverse. Look out for this issue soon!
