Front page of starwars.com What the whaaa? . Massive thanks to @amy_geek for the interview, it was awesome to nerd out with her the new book and my general experience working the dream job. Full link in bio if you want to read my geeky bibble. Or just look at the pictures if you like. . http://www.starwars.com/news/star-wars-golden-books-illustrator-chris-kennett-on-living-his-drawing-dreams

Continuing to revisit the Hanna-Barbera theme with this swinging fella. See ya later Wally Gator!

Happy Roald Dahl Day everyone. I loved his books growing up and I equally loved Quentin Blake's illustrations. So here's my take on Quentin's classic Willy Wonka design. My style using his technique. If that makes any sense whatsoever! #roalddahl #roalddahlday2017 #quentinblake #willywonka #charlieandthechocolatefactory #penguinbooks

Happy to share another Hanna-Barbera classic, ecstatic even! Exit stage left!

Continuing the Hanna-Barbera love. Here's a cheeky Yogi snaffling someone's hard earned pickernick basket. #yogibear #hannabarbera #animation #characterdesign #characterillustration #edbenedict #saturdaymorningcartoons #cartoons

Pixel Raiders vs The 90s So I was wondering absentmindedly what The Pixel Raiders series would look like as a series of console games. Then I wondered what teen me would have have made of the series. Then this happened. Now I want to play them. Books 1, 2 and 3 available now. #pixelraiders #scholasticaustralia #megadrive #sega #bajoandhex

For my next book I get to draw these guys! May the furs be with you. #starwarsbooks #starwarsgoldenbooks #littlegoldenbooks #ewok #randomhousekids

Random scribs while testing out a new drawing angle for my Cintiq. Suspected Bursitis in my shoulder means I can't suspend my arm in the air like the good old days. So I have to rethink how I draw from now on. Stoopid body!
