whats happening?

Hello there, I thought a spoonful of information might be useful.
Here is a sneaky peak at RED MONKEY AND THE BLADES OF TIME, my short for the up coming SMART BOMB collection.

You may of noticed a post by the mighty GO3 further down the page, he was there at the creation of Candleman and we have ever since bounced ideas off one another in a kind of forging drinking kinda comedic way, up until rescently he has been in charge of running the Candlemania site, whic as of a few days ago, is now NO MORE, it was difficult to maintain compaired to the Blog, so, the plan is to combine the two and have a much more action filled blog space RIGHT HERE, so dont worry, if anyones looking for www.candlemania.co.uk, its not dead, its just being reanimated :)

BOOOOWUM

Been putting togther promo gubbins for the Birmingham

International Comic Show 4th and 5th of October at the Thinktank, millenium point, curzon street Birmingham B4 7XG.
Here am a snippet from our big fat poster!

And here is my new icon pic for blogger!

READY FOR ACTION

As brumicon creeps rapidly toward us, here is the prelim for the Candleman biable framed poster this year , even though he's the main character, he's the hardest one to get an image for, maybe i'm too critical or summit

Priest and other shtuffs

Here am some skribbles from my sketch book, featuring Priest without his mask oooh

Aha!

Greetings, readers. This is Geoff. My role here is to turn this blog into a working www.candlemania.co.uk while enhancing it in form and function (as much as is possible with Blogger), and contributing my own angle on this Candleman nonsense that I helped to give birth to all those years ago. Hopefully some new flash content can be added here, as well as some solid article pages and other spanglyness.

And no, that's not burnt into my palm, it's a prototype for a real-world pair of Mayan jade earrings that Willi wears in "Staying in the Light". I hope to make a couple of pairs of these as promotional items for when the comic finally comes around (don't hold your breath, folks, it'll be a while yet.)
The plan is to cast them in polyester resin with a opaque pale green colouring agent and fit jewellery fastenings into the tops. They will then be presented in an attractive box of some sort, preferably not brown cardboard. They'll be cool and minty.

INKY BLACKNESS!

Here is a peek at the 'staying in the light inks' its getting there, half the trouble is finding a look that works

sword lizard lady thing

Hell, I dunno, I just started drawing some buxom lass with a lizard for an ass, make of it what u will

PRANG!

I have been lacks in my posts, mainly as I am working on staying in the light and other stuff for the comic con.
So, just for fun I doodled this, i am always fascinated by silly cross over comics and such like, superman vs aliens verses terminator vs robocop vs yada yada, so i drew BUFFY VS ALIENS, cant go wrong with boobs and monsters as the hammer films proved, if only hammer had made aliens...
Ok, so, this is an edit, i just went mental doing some scribbles, some of them were quite nice so I posted um

There are some pics for brumicon in here and some vampire shit, I reall REALLY wanna do a CANDLEMAN vampire story, as kind of an accompanyment to darkness falls, but never seem to get one that works.

STAYING IN THE LIGHT!

Free promo to be goven out with perchases this year!

A SECOND CHANCE!

Brumicomicon is edging closer, I thought I'd remind you guys that we will be there again this year, not only with a new 20 summin page comic, but with a reprint of the origonal, so for those who turned up late or on the second day and where crushed by the fact we'de sold out, then here is a SECOND CHANCE! to enjoy DARKNESS FALLS and more!

Bones in the sink!

Here am more concepts for me two pager for Brumicomicon, people seem attached to their cash at these things so I try to provide a snifter of Candlemaness for a miniscule outgoing!

More mythology

YAY! more monsters and shtuff!

Snakes and ladders

Yay Medusa!

Not much else to say really...

Crumbling angel

Did this little doodle in my sketchy book, thats right, I've started a sketch book, mostly I just use loose paper, but i fell in love with some of the bigger moleskin books and have made myself doodle in them for a bit, just to have a nice collection of pics really.
I liked this and coloured it up, hope u likes too :)

bloody bones!

Here is a prelim doodle for a short Candleman adventure.

As with last years comic con I want to do a short promo comic and this looks like it may well be it. Its based around the Irish folk legend of Rawhead and Bloody bones a kind of child eating monster who likes dark and damp places.

MOOHAHAHAHAHA

Here is Candlemans new nemisis for Staying in the light, in the process of leveling up!
It was my little first stab at inking and colouring the huge epic.

ON HIS WAY TO BRUMICON!

All hail the red monkey!
On his way to this years Birmingham comic show is my contribution to our colaberation comic, here is a sneaky peek of a little corner of a page!
