# Woo hoo! \o/
I've been doing gift artwork for lots of folks and last night did one for my mate, Chris, guitarist for neo-rockabilly band 'The Saucermen'. I've already done one for Steve O'Malley (Caveman in a Spaceship) and have two more to do for the other band members. Anyway, I sent it to Chris at 2am or some such rubbish this morning and today, he got back to me saying he wants to put it on their upcoming CD as sleeve art! Totally stoked!

File sizing kills the details and makes this small version look like crap, so there's a better version here on my art-only blog if you like that kind of thing; https://40.media.tumblr.com/f020e9d9996b79d65b022d89ccf413ff/tumblr_nibsthzSgV1qkzi7ro1_1280.jpg



'Well, he’s out of this world, he gets all of the girls,
He got a rocket ship with a motor tricked
To swing from the stars, I think he’s from Mars,
He likes to cruise around and he likes old cars,
He is not of this world…

He’s out of this world, he tried to phone home
He got thick greasy goo dripping from his comb
He collects 78’s and 45’s,
He got scaly skin, he got laser eyes,
He is not of this world… “

Vid here if you'd like to give it a listen :)

# I knew who drew that before I scrolled down.

# Stick with me and we can make it a dual-existence trip, haha!
We both love drawing cars and gals, so this can only end up in extreme contentment. How have you been, lovely? X

# The pair of you balance the planet
Twins separated at birth. I'm just waiting for the Penguin to appear in Shazzoir's work.

# I'm fine in myself,
but I'm over-seeing putting a relative into care and selling her house. It leaves little time for art or anything much at the moment :(

Thanks, lovely!

Who bought this piece of junk?

Whoa ... That was a short trip!

Looks like we’re out of fuel!

What sort of juice does this crate take?

Plutonium, I think.

Oh, terrific. Maybe we can get it towed to the nearest plutonium station.

# maybe there's one near Uranus.
ha ha, but due to the puerile comments, we've changed the name of that planet to Urectum
