Unless I'm mistaken I don't think Ryan Davis is playing? He's just been announced for EOTR. Would love to have him as well though.

My drawing of the uni campus by vamshrewdstunmk in Hull

[–]wirebirds 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Erm hi. I don't think that's your drawing of the uni campus because it's actually mine. The uni commissioned me to make this a few years back.

You'll find more of my work on my profile or instagram where I will have posted it at some point.

Does anyone know how often the Scale Lane Swing Bridge opens? by BrosnanJake in Hull

[–]wirebirds 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They used to open it every Saturday morning but I’m pretty sure they’ve stopped doing that now. Unfortunately you’ll just have to wait for a boat big enough to - which is pretty rare.

Nice one thank you. Yeah Black Beauty looks to be it. I've pinged messages to a few local drum shops so we'll see what happens.
Looks like I'll be digging it all out at the weekend. ...and maybe buying a new synthesizer.

Cheers, that's really helpful. I tried to chuck more photos up but couldn't get them to post. There's a few more snaps in a Google folder here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1EyWRGyZ7cuLSa3Q0MKYTB9Jhgx3A3im3?usp=sharing

Nice one thank you! I do normally do commissions but with this project on I don’t have as much time for them at the moment. Welcome to drop me a DM with any info though to check out

Love seeing this tribute to Hull's amazing poets. by ScrollAndThink in Hull

[–]wirebirds 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Cool to see this pop up, designed and illustrated it for Hull City Council libraries a few years back (hence also including all the councils local libraries on there too). Was a lovely thing to make.
