I am the Lore!

Stayed up late last night to see new trailer as it happened -Impressive most Impressive -

The head on spike thing reminds me of what my ancestors would of done to Elizabethian Nobelmen and their armies to scare them off their land-of course it didn't work in the long run .-Alex and his Mrs bring up some interesting points here -could be like "Once Upon A Time in a Galaxy Far Far Away"or "How the Galaxy was Won" I'm guessing Mandalores still under Imperial control after Galactic Civil War much like Spain was still under fascist control after the Second World War -we'll see I hope Bo and Fenn Rau are still kicking -Sabines ok though after Jedi but she's out searching for Ezra with Hera and Ashoka (would be cool to see some real life Clone Wars and Rebels characters appear in this or Cassian show they have planned) and not impossible seeing as Daves involved -I am worried though that we won't get to see show in UK for a while due to some dealings with Sky and Netflix -I went to Disney + website to sign up filled in e-mail address (did it twice as I expected a automactic response but nowt been about a fortnite now)probably need to find an alternate way to see it or wait for DVDs although don't want to do that as spoilers will be flying all around the web

 Mr F -Kudos Dude I think I first saw him in Swingers back in the day VHS video tape days -I hate to say it but Marty and Ken Loach are wrong about Marvel Movies they are cinema just a different form of cinema - sounds a bit uppity of them if you ask me - they're masters of their craft for sure -but part of the cinematic experience is to escape the everyday - and they could of messed up the whole Marvel thing big time but they haven't  -so gotta disagree with that-that said I really looking forward to The Irishman that's a project I've heard about since the 1980's -there was also a rumor of a Dean Martin and Nat King Cole biopic theres two movies I'd like to have seen but I guess those were just rumors
round off with a interview with the makers and players of the show - Something I saw of FB yesterday that harks back to 1982 and Gene Day who along with David Michelinie created Mandalore for Marvel comics although its gone through alot of changes since those comics came out

Better link the pages of the original stories I recoloured again -took me a good while to do these pages still if you prefer the originals I don't mind It was  just a fun experiment to see if I could colour a Star Wars story naturally this was my fave non Al Williamson story https://hipsville365ad.blogspot.com/2015/08/colouring-project-star-wars-search.html-  and  https://hipsville365ad.blogspot.com/2019/02/star-wars-colouring-project-death-in.htmlI've coloured a few more of The Stennax Shuffle too although I think I'll focus on my own characters right now that's my main priority at the moment -I'm looking forward to posting a few pages of artwork soon

Been raining all week -no Indian Summer here -still enjoyed putting this one together -all that cool stuff that flutters through me head whilst I go through Youtube - Mustang Challengers , Burgerville Headliners,Ex Boy Hairdressers  Cool Swedes(trying to get in touch with my inner Viking  but I'm guessing I'm more Celt) Mr Osterberg and the usual  unacknowleged geniuses - like Hedy painted this  back in 2005(seems like the 21st Centuries faster than the 20th doesn't seem long ago)   not sure I got her -but I was trying out monotone as I was happy where colour was going early days for me and photoshop  -needed to see if I could do Black N White as well back then in a similiar way
Thinking of  the future and how I will illustrate this story I have planned -you may see results of that in a few weeks -but Turners going to be a big  influence on how I want to paint the sky , the water and the grime of  future  London (toying with the idea of calling city Londown  as thats how some people pronounce it )  Its a story living in my head so long I'll need to execute it well.- need to get off me arse too but always looking after other people  -impossible sometimes to motivate myself  - but I ll do a cover or a poster to see if it gets my motor running.

"Reasons to Be Cheerful"-Part IV

About an hour ago I was raging that I couldn't get online funny how things change - needed to do another these posts in spite of all this Brickit Bollocks

Gotta Love Ian we had same art tutors and met him slightly before he died at a ? and the Mysterians gig- Image above Marvin the Paranoid Android (the proper one)I was unaware till sunday that Adrien Moles Dad and Marvin are one of the same.
Can't beet a bit of Beryl lol.. nowt much has changed with my outlook on things since I was 13- guess traumatic stuff  happening soon after froze all that -like Captain America . Bit like Adrien when he was 13 these days  guess he'd be around  47 too .


Wanted to tip my hat to Marvin -kinda set me up for what lay ahead in life lol Thursdays used to be the best day on Telly ..I also  used to listen to this on the radio -after the Today programme back in the days before breakfast telly if I was running late to school-always fascinating
maybe I have learnt a thing since I hit 13
Just two month to go "and the circle will be complete". hopefully it'll rock -although rather have dlc to all that micro-tranactions don't believe in all that dlc is always better value for money. I'll be living on Dantooine for a month till it comes out I'll keep this one going some mad firefights ahead .

May well happen (seeing as it's Disney lol)  Jedi Book.

I've Got a Tyger in my Tank- a bit Blakey this one - A nod of the helmet to Barrie (It'strange how I added songs just before I heard he had died ) and Kim who I saw when the Pandoras played Shacklewell Arms - she did a great job on Paula's songs I was glad to witness tunes I'd never hear live anywhere else. but it's been a sad week thats why I do these posts to fight against the blues.
Meanwhile Youtube are been dicks so I'll link 4 now can't embed for some reason ..ffshttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRmBCG0ClqwDbpZT67iw6J8mHevxoddAT&advanced_settings=1&disable_polymer=1

Had to feature  Fisher Price Circus Train  -fond memories of chucking it down stairs and annoying the the grown ups  with the toot toot sound
