Okay, I'm just wrapping up on this, but I have to share it with everyone as it's the biggest Illustration brief I've ever worked on. A few weeks ago I was called by Money Magazine in New York and asked if I'd like to contribute on their "Making Money in 2010" feature for their upcoming issue. Whenever you're a Illustrator in Belfast and you get a call from the Rockefeller Center Hmm… let me think about that – okay, I've thought about it, yes OF COURSE I'll do it!
Money Magazine is a major U.S. publication with a huge readership throughout the USA, Canada and beyond. In fact, this is just the kind of editorial work I've been aiming towards, but have been a little shy to chase without the support of a recognised Illustration agent. But hey – these guys called me, so I'm really chuffed. What's more important is they're even more chuffed with my work! Here's why… (you might want to click on this for a better view)
So if you're reading in America (or anywhere else for that matter) keep an eye on the newsstands and by all means drop me a line and let me know if you like it. I've added a few excerpts here as a taster. The brief called for as much detail as I could fit in and I think I've obliged. A big thank you again to Scott Weiss for Art Direction throughout – this has definitely turned out to be one of my all time favourite briefs.

Brilliant news Neal!
Much congrats for scoring what looks to be a dream job - & plenty of PR value from it too I hope.
Just try to invoice when the exchange rates are the most favourable, tricky, I know ;-)
Cheers.
