Hell Boi'

A quick sketch done on my break at work on some 'borrowed' printer paper. Quickly painted when i got home. I wanted hell boy to look different with a tattoo sleeve instead of a breeze block for a fist
- Why do we say borrow?- we never mean it...

Robots and Watercolour Pads

My partner always reminds me that I never fully finish sketchbooks, and the argument that I'm heading towards minimalist tendencies doesn't hold up. So as a result she returned home one day with a Daler Rowney A5 'Langton' pad demanding that I fill every page. Around the same time I was treated to an early birthday present which was a lovely Faber-Castell TG1-S. I love to draw with fine liners and this was a rather fine example of one. I've combined the two, chose a rough subject matter- robots- and off I scribble.

'Flash Bang'

Here are some pieces I created in Adobe Flash. If you know Illustrator it makes Flash a lot more approachable, its a great program and you can use it for so much. kinda like a ruff n' ready Illustrator. Hope you like!

3D On Hold

Due to the incredibly steep learning curve involved in learning Maya i have had to put it on a back burner for a while- I will no doubt return to it though. Probably with a different character to work from, the robot before this was slightly off in each view- making it very difficult to make a coherent model. I've quite a lot of 2D work I'd like to crack on with regardless. Onwards and upwards.

Continuing 3D

I have decided to revisit a character from a project I worked on in second year of university called 'Materno'. Its a robot, that has a maternal sense of care for the child that featured as the main role and its because of these characteristics I chose to add a gorillas proportions/posture to the machine. I am going to remodel it in Maya and maybe drop it into Zbrush so I can add a bit of texture. lets see how it goes. Here are my original design sheets.

Guns Ho!

Here is a piece that I just finished tonight, really enjoyed this. mainly gradients in Photoshop. which is unusual fir me, would usually use illustrator instead. done from a little sketch. I think that's why I mainly had fun because I wasn't expecting anything. hope you like :)oh happy Halloween!

Waw, over a year since my last post...long story, won't even bother- but more importantly....drawings!!!! yay. because that what its all about kids! so this will become more of a regular occurrence for me again as of now so please keep an eye out :)
