THE RED LION PENDERYN NEAR ABERDARE

last night i went to a pub straight out of Hellboy comic the pub was facing a grave yard, near the church theres a mound hill , on the vine bush looking at the graveyard on the pub i saw a mans profile,(ie Green man) the church tower is almost a thousand years old ,in the sky i saw stars that made a cross , bats flew n the sky and inside the pub it was like going into a set for Treasure Island ,it was such a special spooky evening and the landlord Keith James has loads of info about laylines in the area and ghost stories, plus great open log fires and great beer, worth a visit if your visiting Wales.

I had the pleasure to watch this with my friends the other evening and i was blown away by the production ,music and voice acting, I've always loved animation and it's very cool to see my work animated like a movie , all the team that worked on the book worked very hard to produce something special and with this product i really believe we have, I'm very proud to have worked on this project.
