Ballcat stars in his new adventure Road Rage! I created this short animation to get to understand how to use Pencil 2D, since my old iMac is pretty decrepit now and Adobe Flash is no more.

Enjoy and feel free to leave a comment :-)

Shameless plug for my dad's latest thriller 'Blue Lake'. I'm really enjoying reading the last installment and all three can be bought on Amazon, or you can buy direct from my dad.

All the money goes towards Lupus UK, which is a charity for sufferers of Lupus (including me!). I also designed the cover for all three books. Please support this worthy cause in a great way - by reading :-) Thanks, Susie (daughter of Frank Broughton)

Hot off the press, my dad’s latest thriller for which I designed the book cover. Available to buy from Amazon in hardcopy or digital format. Just search ‘Frank Broughton’ in the books section and ALL profit goes towards Lupus UK. You can also buy direct, just pm my dad.
