A Brief Encounter with Death

I returned to a project Moleskine to do some work and found some sketches I'd forgotten about.

Just for You

Creeping Buttercup

Small World

It's really hard to take a photograph of yourself in a reflective surface. It's proper framing vs. awkward pose.

30 Movies #5 - Fight Scene

I passed on some grander and more memorable cinema fights in favour of this scene from TMNT. This rooftop fight scene made the movie for me. I don't know that I'd have given it a second watch if it didn't have this scene in it. It also gave me a good excuse to draw the Turtles. Despite being from the 2007 movie I decided to draw Leo the way I've always drawn the Turtles. I prefer the classic look to some of the more recent styles. I think the original live action movie was the high water mark for me.

Updates from the Train

Every kid in Glasgow looks like this, right down to that bag (long, baggy shorts interchangeable with tight, skinny jeans).

A few people said Trooper looked too 80s. I guess I just needed to make her clothes bigger/smaller (preferably the former).

Illustration Work

For the past few months I have been creating animated illustrations for a series of eBooks by Giglets. Unfortunately since the animations are part of the core content I can only share a one or two static images from each title, but hopefully I can show you some animation previews in the near future. Or, you can download the books to your strange touchy glass box device right now!
