Pacific Rim was Awesome

It's no secret that I love movies and often go to the cinema with my sister or mom. I went recently to see Pacific Rim with my sister, and the both of us are Neon Genesis Evangelion fans so we were understandably excited. I loved it so much I went to see it again with my mom! It had its flaws but was a great bit of monster vs. robot fun.

As a result I decided I'd draw up a bit of Pacific Rim artwork (I'm also compiling a rocking playlist to go with it!) and this is the result!

Spectrum Character Design

Hey all! Here are the updated character designs for the three main player characters from Spectrum (a mobile game concept I'm working on). You may have seen the initial designs on my sketchblog, but these are the relatively final images:

Scarlett, the close-range fighter type

Klein, the defensive builder type

Blaine, the long-range fighter type

And a bonus experimental gif of Scarlett! 

My business cards are here as well and we're all getting ready to head off to London next week so might be too busy to update for a little while, but will still be putting up some rougher work on my sketchblog. I'm also going to be doing a giveaway once I've completed 50 pokemon warmups, so keep an eye out!

Xmas Update

Hey guys, I've been working on Victoriana most of the holiday so far, but have been posting a few doodles and bits up on my sketchblog. It's going to be a busy Christmas but we'll see how much work I get done.
Here's a coloured sketch to prove I'm still alive!

'Motion' Visual Essay

 Since finishing up the posters I've spent the last week and a half working on a visual essay focusing on motion, and using Parkour / free running as my inspiration. I'm working towards a possible graphic novel final illustration, but thought I'd share a few of my best sketches first:

There are more scans and images of my sketchbook work, process and sequencing at my SKETCHBLOG if you're interested in seeing more.

Quick Update

Just a quick update to say that I'm not only on blogger (here) but also on Tumblr under the name geegrevesy, to follow some people and to post fanart-y stuff. So if you see some things that look familiar up there, it's me.
I've also set up a Big Cartel account for anyone interested in grabbing some badges/prints, making it easier than e-mailing/paypal. To see what's available check out the Prints and Products page at the top of this blog. The site is http://ggreves.bigcartel.com/.

Now have a doodle page of the current cast of In-Jokes (which will probably increase soon) so that this post isn't just text:

Starting Again

Since September I've been studying Illustration at Falmouth University. It's a manic and creativly exhausting time but I'm really enjoying it. Focusing on my studies and dealing with many other creative people has really encouraged my passion for drawing.

However, I have decided that I can no longer ignore this blog! I'll be posting up sketches, doodles and artwork, and am currently developing some small-scale products that will be available to sell soon (my current passion is badges, of which I am an avid collector).

Needless to say, it's time to bring this blog back to life!

Artsfest End

I am definitely tuckered out after such a fun weekend at Artsfest! I met loads of nice people, chatted and had a good time, and also sold some work, so it was a great success. Thank you to all of you who liked my work enough to buy it!

I'll be working on the blog a bit more so there'll be more artwork up soon, and I still have some prints left over so I'll going to put them in packs if anybody is interested. They'll be up on the 'products' page. Pictures will follow, I'm just typing this on a laptop without easy access to them, so keep checking back!

There's also been some interest in commissioning work. If you want anything done, please e-mail me (see my contact page). At a rough estimate, a colour A4 original is going to be about £30, and a black and white around £20-£25. But like I said, drop me a line and I'll work something out :)

Of course, if you just want to say hi you're welcome to do so as well!
