STEWART BREWING // 2024
Edinburgh Dungeons Craft Beer Can

Oh boy. Sometimes life is a chore; you muddle along getting work done, clocking in, clocking out, trudge trudge trudge trudge. And then other times you get a project land in your inbox which combines all the things you love into one and you think blimey life's not so grizzly is it. Although given the theme of this onez maybe it is...👻 🍺 🎃

When my good friends over at asked me to come up with a craft beer can for I knew it was going to be a corker. Beer, design and ghoulish characters all wrapped up in a bow and thrown at me. Happy Halloween, Sam.

Call the gravedigger, because I'm going to be cracking one or 5 of these soon as I've clocked out today. I strongly suggest you head over to Stewartbrewing.co.uk and order yourself a crate.

As always - likes, shares and saves will spare you from the iron maiden or the rack. DM me to discuss a project or email me at [email protected]

THE PHOENIX MURALS // 2024
Designed by Sam Minton / painted by contractor

Holy guacamole; I have been so absent from Instagram of late. It's like I'm haunting my own account.

But that doesn't mean I've been sat on my arse doing nothing. Granted, I have been sat on my arse, but I've been beavering away on all manner of design projects while doing so - and stop thinking about my arse..

Some of the projects have been fun, some not so fun, and some of them downright fun-tastic, like these murals I illustrated for

I've worked for The Phoenix for a long time; coming up to 13 years I think and it's always a pleasure to be asked to do some silly doodle waffle for their fine establishment.

So, I'm going to try to be more active, post some more Sheesh and hopefully you all remember who I am.

DM me for any commission requests, likes, shares, saves etc as always will be greatly rewarded in Valhalla.

Here's another spicy pin up sticker done for

I always love it when Amanda gets in touch as you know it's going to be a blast. And this time round we went spicy, too spicy for Instagram's delicate sensibilities "Oh no! Musnt show a ni**le, not a ni**le!" grow up.

I nearly uploaded the uncensored version accidently, Instagram would have thrown an absolute wobbly tho so phew. If you wanna see the unedited one you'll have to head over too Dashten and pick up a pack.

DASH TEN PIN UP STICKER NO #3 // 2024

It's so good to be posting some new pin up illustration to my page as it's been bloody ages, not because I've been under a rock on the moon, but have been so hectic with projects and fun stuff; but at least those two areas have combined for this beauty for

I always love it when Amanda gets in touch as you know it's going to be a blast. And this time round we went spicy, too spicy for Instagram's delicate sensibilities "Oh no! Musnt show a ni**le, not a ni**le!" grow up.

I'll share a few more of this series later in the week, but here's the spicy and the still spicy but more madras than jalfrezi, version. You can also pick up the whole sticker pack and give Amanda a follow at the same time on the tag above.

Okay, now we're getting into some of my favourite ones from this year's Halloween draw-a-thon. This one's another from Halloween prompts.

LYLA BLUSH COMMISSION // 2023

Taking a little break from the Halloween prompts to post this commission piece I just wrapped up.
