Oh. My. God.



This piece is based on this excellent Coraline poster created by Weiden + Kennedy.

AARGH

Have not posted anything for ages.
So here is a wolf as an apology to the universe.



His name is Frank.

Sketch to Flash.


After working out the side view (much harder than you'd think!) I take the sketch into Flash and start overlaying shapes.


Franklin ended up looking too wide, which is why Flash is so great- I just scaled him down until he looked right. Unfortunately, the image compression here on planet Blogger seems to have done terrible, terrible things to him. I'm sad for you, viewer, who cannot see what he looked like to start with. It was awesome.


Irving was easier, with the exception of the tie. Don't mention the tie.

Steadfast.



More fun with watercolours, and unhelpfully honest statements.

Technicalities

Slight backlog of work at the moment, trying out new media, etc. I hope to have some interesting pictures up soon.

Mr. Secretary.




No, really, that's his name.
Hey, you'd be cranky too.

Oh, Really.



Getting a character to look right for the first time is only half the problem. The other bit is managing it again, and again, and again... This is the first time I've felt happy with how this particular gentleman looks.

Late



Technically, it is still Tuesday. I haven't gone to sleep yet, ergo, it is not Wednesday. So there.

Whoops II



Been a bit busy for the last couple of days. I hope to do more on Gregory soon - he feels like an idea whose time has come.

Topiary.



I don't always draw characters.
Sometimes I draw oddly-shaped shrubberies, instead.

Science!



This is Gregory, a mad scientist of sorts. He has an ego. And an unhealthy obsession with hairpins.

Whoops.



Kenton may not be sparkly, but he is a vampire!

Monster Party Faux Pas



Some days you realise you've just drawn a dead cat holding a duck, and when that happens, you can either run with it, or go quietly mad.
