Finished this one

Yeah, so colours might are nowhere near perfect, but its a nice full page, and doesnt look too bad for me...

P.S. I have been using an acetate grid for referencing in a couple of images, thats why theyre more accurate than I could naturally pull off.

Some unrelated work

So, I still have yet to make a start on my project, but I have started an art book of haircut cut-outs... odd theme, I know, but theyre cheap magazines to buy, contain good portraiture photography and very interesting haircuts (and in some cases, costumes).

So this is what I have so far, I am just kind of ... doing whatever with each image. I apologise for the incorrect colours, I have been working at night without daylight bulbs, and have yet to sort out a colour chart for my copicsssss...

Book Cover commish

So, a while ago I agreed to do a book cover for a friend, so here is the final image and some in-process shots...

SO. Yeah. Turne out surprisingly well. The funny thing is the image will be printed about 4 inches tall by 6 inches wide, so most of the detail will be lost. Ah well, was a nice little challenge though. Total work load was probably 10-12 hours, in-photoshop work about 8 hours (lots of fiddly bits)

fooling around

So I sort of had this idea for a story. It draws on eastern elements such as the Chinese Zodiac, I wont bore you with the details, but here are a couple of character concepts. The Shogun look is due to a current interest in armour from that period in history, especially due to the Total War guys showing off some amazing stuff for Shogun 2. Anyway, just doodles really, moar later.

New Starters


from Pokemon, fancied drawing them... Tsutaja is the grass, Pokabu the fire and Mijumaru the water. Sorry about the colour quality, I was missing an orange for Pokabu, used the wrong shade of green for Tsutaja's belly and the scanner didnt pick up most of the fine blue in the water spout...

What do you think

Of these? Which do people prefer? I know theres not a lot in it, the first has no shading, the second has shading, the third removes bingo wings, the fourth adds two letters and a punctuation mark.

Feed me feedback pls.

Olympic Mascot doodle



Olympic Mascot doodle, in no way, shape or form is this guy owned by me... was inspired because Mandeville (that is his name) just looks a little like metal sonic.

Last page...


OK, this is the last of the 11 pages I inked. I feel a bit shit right now cos I am running out of time to put in the dialogue. Maybe I should just print them blank.
