I’m gushing with so much excitement about my new project… a semi-sequel / remake of Qinc but more autobiographical and well…
Some sketchy character designs of Ham, the main character. (Omg where did the name come from? omg!)
Dark
From a black an white photobooth in Italy. I just wanted a nice picture and then my friend waiting outside said “TAKE OFF YOUR CLOTHES”.
Well… it is really quite hard to resist sometimes isn’t it?
Today is the first night of my play, The Road Less Travelled.
Tickets are still available so if by the slim possibility you’re free tonight, Thursday or Saturday, and you’re in the Kingston area, you should pop along.

Happy Mothering Sunday!
This was my card to my mother. It says “FROM YOUR MANLIEST SON.”
Inside I thank her for being supportive of my corrupt, whoopsie-doo-dah lifestyle and wanting to go to art school.
I made this desktop background for my partner’s birthday, featuring Aslan from The Chronicles of Narnia and Iorek Byrnison from His Dark Materials, two of his favourite book series.
I wanted to make Aslan and Iorek be a bit more confrontational with each other after I read Philip Pullman’s opinion on the Narnia books.
“Pullman has characterised C. S. Lewis’s series as “blatantly racist”, “monumentally disparaging of women”, “immoral”, and “evil”.”
But I didn’t get that across. Oh well.
HAMISH IS WRITING A BOOK is gonna be my new tag for updates on … the book… I am writing.
It’s called Ivy At Midnight and is designed to be the first in a series of books which could range between 4 or 6 in total.
In tonight’s update, I thought I’d show you my map!
On my wall is a map of London in roughly the same time period as my book. My book is set in October 1892 and takes place entirely in North London over a few weeks.
Living in London has actually really helped with me get into the world of my book but its not good enough. In order to make everything seem believable I need to use real names, real places, real street names. So here I have plotted out all the key locations from the book, so I know their relation to each other, etc. (Those little lines of paper stuck on it are the “plots”).
So far locations include the London Hospital in White Chapel, the headquarters of the Women of London’s Rights and Suffrage League (or WOLRAS) off of Russel Square, Fly House which is in Pall Mall and the home of Ivy, our hero, in Regent’s Crescent.
Doing stuff like this I can imagine is useful for people writing in fantasy worlds but my book needs to be London, it needs to be 1892, and it needs to be accurate.
Drew myself in a low poly style. Might try and model it at some point.
I like it, I might use it in promotional stuff or something but I shan’t let it replace Ham the Chimp.
Thank you so much guys! I appreciate every single one of you. Genuinely. I’d give you a hug, but I don’t tend to like hugs.
Proof:
I was waiting for this!
