This little guy is some sort of strange pet for Bigfoot, I was thinking having 2 of these creatures as Bigfoot's companions.

This is also the last post for a couple of months, as I'm heading to London for a bit of running work and I wont have a scanner to put work up. A little bit apprehensive, but hopefully it should be a khool experience.

more BIGFOOT drawings.

2012-01-07T03:28:00.000Z

Its been too long since I posted, but I have been still drawing. Here's a couple of rough designs of Mr. Bigfoot. More to follow if I have TIME.

OMG! Whats that?

2011-11-18T22:57:00.001Z

I thought I'de bite the bullet and try drawing and animating on Flash for the first time ever, its quite fiddly?

In the end I just scribbled and coloured this in Flash and put the b/g in Photoshop.

Quick little Batman scribble, since people are gonna dress up in weird costumes in a few days for Halloween, WHY NOT.

First time in a long time I used a brushpen. Took me a while to get back into, but I enjoyed it. The pen makes me use minimal lines (usually) where as if I use 2B, I go line crazy.

Feels good drawing from observation, its been a while. Hopefully I'll be drawing and posting more up.

I've been busy working and tried to find time to paint this up. The Easter Rabbit took too long to paint, but I quickly painted up the girl. :D

Quick birds.

2011-02-17T02:15:00.001Z

This was meant to be a 2 min sketch of jus 3 birds, but instead took me 15-20 mins. I felt like it needed a background of some sort and coloured eyeballs.

Snow Cub.

2011-02-11T03:01:00.000Z

Thought I'd draw my all time favourite feline animal, the Snow Leopard. I couldn't decide which looked.....appropriate? Feedback is always welcome on this blog.

Chinese NEW Year.

2011-02-09T20:14:00.000Z

Bit late to post these up as its nearly been a week since the Chinese New year. Never mind. The idea was to put rabbit ear style head bands on the "creature". Didn't really ut much time and rushed the idea straight onto paper.

Opossum?

2011-02-01T01:25:00.000Z

I always did think you spelt Opossum beginning with a P. I did these sketches after i found an article on the BBC about a cross eyed Opossum.

I Inherited a scene from the Raven. (found in the deep hard drive)

2011-01-31T19:24:00.001Z

A scene from the graduation film 'Inheriting the Raven' from last year, I tried to clean up this scene. I think in the end it wasn't clean enough, but it was fun doing something different.

Popped to the gym this morning and it was full of...... lovely pensioners having nothing to do in their spare time than to BULK UP!

Saw a lot of people, but remembered this one lady, couldn't get her out of my mind. Don't know why?

Bird of some sort.

2011-01-11T00:58:00.001Z

These tiny birds were in the same "cage" as the Marabou Stork in Marwell Zoo, but i didn't have a look at thier name. Ooops! (I think they might be called Ibis... I think)

dark days of Ibby K.

2010-11-18T14:56:00.000Z

It's been a while since I last posted any drawings and this is due having no internet in the house.

I am still drawing, but wont be posting daily, more every fortnight until I resolve this internet problem.

Paul.

2010-10-26T19:10:00.000+01:00

Paul the Octopus will dearly be missed. He was every bookies enemy and every public betters hero.

2010-10-25T20:26:00.001+01:00

Not very good, still a rough drawing. Found some images on the desktop. I'm assuming I was meant to study them at some point, so I thought I'de just draw one quick sketch and clear the images off the desktop.

2010-10-25T17:09:00.001+01:00

I tried to character myself, but its harder then I thought it'de be.

Barry Parody.

2010-10-22T02:10:00.001+01:00

More work I found from Barry's Ices. Since the film was based in Salford, the director thought it was best to look at a Salford artist, so we looked at non other than L.S. Lowry. These were a couple of ideas for the credits. I edited the original paintings by putting the Ice Cream Robots serving the public.

early Halloween design.

2010-10-21T22:31:00.000+01:00

Had this character just staring at me on the desktop, so I thought I'de draw a quick sketch of him and get rid of him off my desktop. He's a ...........PUMKIN ELF?

2010-09-23T10:58:00.001+01:00

Old bit of painting I found on the Mac. I did this during the end of our graduation Barry's Ices. We used this as a background to credit people who worked on the film.

... and the ice creams.

Dance.

2010-09-21T00:32:00.000+01:00

I felt like dancing today, but instead i thought i'de put all that energy into drawing someone dance. I referenced the position in what the dancer is in and pretty much made all of it up, hence why the muscles aren't as accurate as the could of been.

elephant study.

Consistency is the KEY to SUCESS.

2010-09-16T00:30:00.001+01:00

Unfortunately my drawings aren't consistant enough for me to be successful, but hopefully a couple more months and I should work out how to keep my drawings "stable"

Pixary style.

2010-09-09T16:23:00.000+01:00

Thought ide try the Pixar way of drawing a character. Did it really quick and rushed it.

2010-09-09T06:19:00.000+01:00

The insect on the first picture is meant to be a Ladybird, but because I put the Elytra (wikipedia) the wrong way, I decided not to put the black spots on its Elytra.

FEED me BACK please.

more LIZARDoodles.

2010-08-23T08:17:00.000+01:00

As Its Ramadan this month and I'm fasting, I thought it would be good idea to stay away from the kitchen and keep myself occupied upstairs drawing. But I,m not doing much drawing and doing Facbooking. I came across some pictures of a friends lizards. I liked its pattern on its skin and thought I'de give drawing a lizard a GO! (I should of wrote this 2 post ago, it possibly would of made sense why I drew 2 random LIZARDS)

more to come...

Life Drawing.

2010-07-08T19:47:00.001+01:00

Some Life drawings I found during my 3rd in Animation Production. The first one was too big to scan all at once, so I did it in four segments and rushed, so the lines might look a bit "unmatched". 1st picture took 45 minutes and the 2nd 3rd and 4th pictures took 10 minutes each.

Coming back to the UK from Annecy, thought i'de try out some quick finger sketches on the good old ipod touch. I used a basic app called "Whiteboard"

Annecy's 50th

2010-06-16T01:00:00.000+01:00

I went to the 50th anniversary aswell as celebrating my pre graduation from the AUCB.

It was a good trip, met up with old friends and enjoyed the lovely sights of Annecy.

Don Hahn at the Annecy Premier of "Waking Sleeping Beauty". Also present were the directors of The Princess and the Frog, Ron Clements and John Musker.

My highlight of the festival, getting a lithograph signed by Princess and the Frog director John and Ron.

...and also bought some cool books by cool people.

Graduation Film.

2010-06-14T18:46:00.012+01:00

Above are a few stills from the graduation film I worked on in my final year at the AUCB. The style was nice and different and also inspiring for me.

A bit of animation I did in 2 weeks. I tried to enter in May's 11 Second Club Competition, but I didn't finish it in time for the DEADLINE. (went with a different approach to the clock, an abstract style)

Aliens form the Moon.

2010-05-01T17:18:00.028+01:00

Here's some character design i did a few weeks ago for Moving Dimensions . A Family of Aliens from the Moon. (can't say too much until the project is finished)

Some BIRDS.

2010-04-14T22:57:00.003+01:00

Had some sketches of "Love BIRDS" from Marwell Zoo, so i thought i'de draw some characters from it.
