Ninja Bunny

On the 5th of Sept Ninja Bunny turns 5. To help celebrate this milestone I’d love to post any fan art or guest strips sent my way. Just email them to phil(at)ninja-bunny.com.

It also seems a fitting time to don my art-hat and restart the comic up again (as I’ve been pretty lax this last year), while I haven’t updated it in a while I’ve actually been drawing most of the next story so hopefully I can keep the comic updated once a week.

My day job, if you didn’t realise, isn’t a well paid and famous comic artist, instead I’m a web/graphics designer. For the last two years I’ve been freelancing, so I’ve had a steady supply of free time to draw Ninja Bunny, this isn’t the case now as I’ve been working full-time for a design agency for 4 months now, this is one of the reasons why Ninja Bunny hasn’t been updated for a while. I’m slowely getting back into the swing of working and drawing now though. Good times!

If you fancy checking out my portfolio just head over to http://www.philipspence.com, have fun clicking around!

Last year I was commissioned to do a t-shirt design for Bunny Brawl, a school event in America.
Check out the final design with front/back. Click for a larger image.

Here’s 2 more designs I did a while back. Ninja Bunny and Robo-Ninja Bunnies ‘power up’ tee. Like either? Leave a comment as I just might get some limited editions printed.

Don’t forget, I’m selling a ‘colour me in’ Ninja Bunnies t-shirt over at the store, which comes complete with fabric crayons.

I was sent these photos of Ninja Bunny by Charlie, who I believe is only 8. He sent these photos in and I have to say, they’re just amazing. They’re like little flat versions of my convention exclusive models. Now, a yellow Ninja, that’s an idea!!

Have you got some fan art? Send it in and I’ll post it up.

As you’ve already noticed, Ninja Bunny has been on a hiatus for a while. There’s a number of reasons why, ranging from personal, being busy with a real job and general apathy towards drawing. Mostly though I think it’s been just not updating this site or blog telling everyone what I’ve been up to. So to rectify this mistake I’ll be updating the blog with a backlog of things that I’ve done (Don’t worry, updates to the comic are coming too).

Solipsistic Pop v.1

This is an old one, Sol’pop is a fantastic anthology filled with some of the best UK talent, it’s already on volume 2 and well on it’s way to no.3. I contributed a 7 page story titled Ninja Bunny and the Broken World. Breaking with the usual square format and instead being printed in A4 on newspaper. You might spot Ninja bunny’s old nemesis. The story where Maru lost his eye is recounted here. Here’s page 1 & 2 below.

If you’re interested in seeing the rest of the story you can get a copy from the Solipsistic Pop Store.

p.s Come back tomorrow for another belated post about the many goings-on of Ninja Bunny.

Although my mini-comic A Fiction Tale has been around for a good few years, It’s just been reviewed on 365 Zines. If you’re interested in buying it, take a look in the shop.

Here’s a piece I’ve done for Electric Sheep magazine. A comic review of the movie Cold Souls. Bit of a nice change from drawing bunnies and my usual comic book style. Click the image for a larger version on have a look at the original review on Electric Sheep.

I’ve now got a Tumblr blog for all my photography: http://webleedcolour.tumblr.com/ Follow me and tell your friends, or whatever it is you’re meant to do on Tumblr. Leave a comment here with your tumblr addy and I’ll follow you too.

Not one for buying crappy musical cards from Clinton cards, I usually end up drawing my cards for friends birthdays. Here’s one I recently did, based on the old Creature from the Black Lagoon poster…I have a sneaky feeling it would look awesome if I coloured it in.

Oh, on the inside of the card is said “have a monstrously good birthday” …good pun right?

Here’s some old fan art from the MCM Expo (which goes to show how lazy I can be at scanning sometimes). A ‘what if’ Miss Noonan met Ninja Bunny. If you have no idea what/who Chloe Noonan is, then I suggest you visit Marc Ellerby website and buy this fantastic comic.
