Apologies for the postage costs! I’ve really tried to keep it affordable as I possibly can.

6 days left to go on the Burds, Baists and Bugs Kickstarter! I thought I’d add a few videos showing the rough sketches of some of the illustrations included in the book, and the final versions ✍️

How do we all feel about esks (Great Crested Newts)? This one’s rather wanrestfu (uneasy) because GCNs are threatened by habitat destruction due to housing development.
