Not strictly illustration related...

...but I wanted to let you all know about my other Etsy Shop, "Shoot 'em up!"


I hand make all the clothes, bags, hair slides, bow tie sets, brooches... and anything else you see on there (usually apart from the supplies destash).


I also have a competition on at the minute giving away a massive stash of goodies from several other DIY shops, just look on the shop announcement, located at the top of my shop.
If you'd like to have a look then please go to www.shootemupclothing.etsy.com


Some examples of my work are below, and all these items can be found in the shop along with LOADS more! :)

Do any of you grow your own veggies?!

We're moving into our student house at the end of this month in Birmingham and have quite a big garden, and it already has an allotment at the end of it. It needs a really good tidy up so there's a lot of work to be done, but we were thinking of growing our own veg. It'd hopefully save us quite a bit of money, me even more so because I'm a vegetarian and I try to eat quite healthily, so most of my food shopping is vegetables. Does anyone here know what kinds of things we should be planting now? We're absolutely 100% new at this so we're a bit confused by all the terminology! This is the website I've been looking at:
