Spooky, Illustration Friday. Halloween theme!

I thought I would take a break from Posca pens and enter illustration Friday. I'm off to a Halloween party in a bit, think I might go as a cowboy Zombie, I've been playing a lot of Red Dead Undead Nightmare of late. Happy Halloween every one.

Concept work, swing tags, and a cat's fashion.

I've watched to much Red Dwarf the past two days, well I say watch I mean put on in the back ground and get distracted by unbelievably cool and somewhat graceful Cat. (hmm..)

Anyway I've been working on some swing tag designs and here are the first concepts. I'll be posting more soon with details of the fashion designers work.

A tidy work space

I thought it was about time to rearrange my basement workspace. I've shoved a TV in the corner of my desk and have super smash bros at the ready. I've also cut a few holes in a fred Perry box and made it into a Posca pen holder so that I'm not scrambling around in a pencil case every few minutes. I'm going to Posca the box up when I have some spare time. Also a giant space hopper makes for the best desk chair in my opinion.

Super Mario Power trip, Don't eat the Pips.

I thought I would make a quick gif for my blog. I came up with the idea when playing Red Dead Redemption today and thinking that I should be working rather than playing games. I don't play games that often because of that reason but this time I guess it was worth it.

Japanese monster sketches

There are some brilliantly bizarre Japanese Folklore monsters out there. Here's a few quick concept sketches from my sketch pad, I want to draw a party scene full of monsters drinking sake.

Salsa Shark, Clerks

I been meaning to test out a few animation techniques lately. I watched Clerks for the first time a few weeks back and it's been playing on my mind ever since, so I deiced to make a quick salsa shark as a tribute. It was a super quick test and it will probably take me more time to eat the left over props but I got what I needed from it.

More uni posca pens work.

This piece took slightly longer than the last. I’ve been striving to archive precision and neatness with these last two and it’s beginning to become obsessive. It’s a shame it doesn’t spill out  into other aspects of my life. I’ve got my next two Posca and paint pieces planned out and hope to start one tonight.

Man vs Bear Comic Concepts.

These have been on the back burner for a little while now, but it's time to dust off the old sketches and evolve it into something.

Posca and paint.

I’ve really enjoyed going back to paints and working hands on with my images. I’m enjoying mostly not being stuck behind a computer screen all day.
