Shark and a Lark....


*chunk!* what's that you hear? ....another shift of gear, back to kids illustration, though lets hope one of those Sci-Fi nasties below doesnt end up eating the cast of this kids book. That will never do, oh no.
EDIT - Fixed the tooth getting lost in the background

Creature Design - Insectoid type thing


Well it's done, It took me longer than it should what with various stopping and starting. The 'buzz' kinda wore off before I finished it but I think it's an improvement on the last creature design so that's what its all about, getting better.

Ox and a Fox on a Box, and an Owl with a scowl



More childrens book illos - Not very sure about the Ox but I am lovin' the fox and the owl even if I say so myself. I am doing these out of the goodness of my heart for a friend so I can't get too bogged down making sure everyone is absolutely perfect otherwise a) they'll never get done as there are 14 b) I dont want to resent the time spent on them and c) did I mention there are 14 of them!

I do have a creature design on the go but just havnt got around to finishing it just yet.
EDIT - uploaded the new and slightly improved fox and ox pic

There's a moose, loose aboot this hoose


Okay so this isnt the more mature work I sounded out but ironically I also have some childrens book stuff on too. There is some more creature stuff on the way. It's becoming fast apparent that my style and genre is all over the place, which hopefully is good, in the long term at least. I know I'm greedy but I wanna be able to do video game concept art and then be able to switch to something like the above when needed. Not sure if this is a wise strategy but it makes for a diverse portfolio.

Random Creature Design


Just fancied doing something a little different. I'm not saying the design is especially groundbreaking but I wanted to get my workflow of designing a creature. Now I think I've got that I can do something a little more interesting/wierd.

Bonjour!


Here is a blacksmiths design with a pseudo french flavour. I believe this to be architectually racist. Sadly I think I'm getting a little bored with these, I should probably go off on a tangent and work on something big-ish and in a different style. Watch this space I have a few things perculating.
