News

Update: June 26th 2009

The update a lot of us have been waiting for…Strathcarnage will be published by Matador on July the 6th. Apparently it’s rolling off the presses as I type this. More details can be found at www.strathcarnage.com alternately please visit the Matador website: Strathcarnage is also available from all good high street/online book shops.

A few samples of artwork from the book can be seen above, click to enlarge. I will be adding more in the near future.

For anyone new to this site or a bit out of the loop with the ‘Strathcarnage’ saga, the 236 page hardbacked novel is the twisted brain child of author Matt Hamilton, encompassing tales from the mythical debauched town of Strathcarnage, founded by shipwrecked lunatics generations before. Accompanying the text are 19 black and white chapter illustrations by myself, Chris Odgers.

There will be more updates in the very near future, this is a bit of a hurried heads up as it caught myself by surprise! As for the next Sawhorse Books release, the book is coming along steadily, I will be posting some images soon.

Take care
Chris
