AUTO ASSEMBLY 2010

I'm a guest at AUTO ASSEMBLY this weekend on Saturday the 14th August. I will have an exclusive Transformers print for the show which will be limited to 100 print run.

It'll be full colour on good heavy weight art board, A3 and 100 print run - signed by me... Here's the finished article:

Everyone loves Frankie!

Issue 23 of The 99' features my first poster image for the title. Starring the creative genius that is Jami and his (our) favorite robot creation.

Enjoy!

BRISTOL 10'

WoW.

A full 2 days later and I am only just stating to recover. For those that came to see me New and Old a big thank you. I am now all sketched out.

I arrived on Friday night and despite all my promises to myself did not leave the bar until after 2.00 on the Saturday morning. Though in all honesty the alcohol probably did help with the sunstroke.

Glass half full. Until I drank it.

I spent Saturday sketching with the Draw the World Together crowd, doing my bit for 'charity'. In the lovely air conditioned Mercure Hotel. So I suppose it was well justified to find myself in the bar at 4.30 in the morning drinking with Mark Buckingham and Paul Ridgon. Cheers guys, I figured it was time to leave when the lights came on and the staff were vacuuming around us.

A big thank you to Mike Allwood the Comic Expo Organiser for fitting me in at the last minute over at the Ramada City hotel to sketch for joe & jane public. Much appreciated Mike!

Any-who, back to the Drawing Board.

There's Something About F.R.A.N.K.I.E

I love Robots

With issue 20 of the 99' I got the chance to design a robot to join their ranks. F.R.A.N.K.I.E Firewall Reinforced Algorithmic Noor-Stone Knowledge Integration Emulator. Yep it is certainly a mouth full.

When the script arrived from the great Stuart Moore I had a blast figuring out how Frankie would look. The end result with John Mccrea's final pencils and Sean Parsons Inks looked great. As Frankie stomped his way through the issue.


This issue was great fun to work on, as like I said...

I love Robot's.

LEE BRADLEY dot! COM

Over the next few weeks there will be a lot of changes with LeeBradley.com. Starting with a face lift. Like a Wetherspoons becoming a Lap dancing club, the venue will be the same but there will be a lot more to look at.

The process has begun, now when you go to leebradley.com you will get automatically redirected to this blog. There will be updates about the projects I have been working on this year. Along with a retrospective of some of my work that I have bearly had chance to mention.


Level one complete.
Phase Two begining.

And Now ... The 99

My first experience working with the 99' was as inker on the Newspaper Strip 'Mumita Chess'. Since then I have moved on to co-pencil the monthly comic book. What does that mean? Well I receive the script, draw the roughs. Then pass on to John Mccrea who completes the finished pencils. The 99' is published monthly from Teshkeel and is available world wide.

Go buy a copy!

MEMORABILIA 10'

If you managed to be a visitor to this years NEC Memorabilia show 27th - 28th March, you will have found me with a host of my friends and colleagues dispatching Artwork at a feverish rate. With so much to see at the show, and so little time to have a good mooch about, I was glad many of the interesting characters came to us. From mini Stormtroopers to Giant Wookies and all kinds of characters in between.

The ever growing Comic City section of the show was host to the great Mike Collins who I enjoyed sketching next to. Every show is another chance to pick up tricks and tips from the some of the great Artists that I grew up reading. To the other side of me was my good friend John Mccrea along with Keith Burns my arch enemy.

Keith I shall destroy you.

We were also joined by Al Davison, Laura Howell and Hunt Emerson. With the great atmosphere my band of merry men (& women) kept the public entertained and engrossed with their sketching ability.

Comic City also held host to Draw the World Together once again run by good friends and great artists Jason Cardy and Kat Nicholson. With the help of former Comix students Adam Bolton and Rachael Stott (Thanks guys!) we managed to raise £388 for the charity. So a big thank you to all that came along and bought sketches, your support and help is greatly appreciated!
