More dog sketches

Life is still up in the air at the moment, so here, have some sketches of Jack Russells.

This dog is hard to draw. I'm not sure what style to go for either hence the variety. We'll see how things go!

Drawing Dogs

New Designers was fantastic, it was great to see so many incredibly talented people! There's been some interest in my work as a result, so it's been worth the stress of it all.

In the meantime (while looking for work) I've been talking with my wonderful mother about a story idea she's had - which I love - but involves drawing dogs...which are something I'm not used to drawing, so I've been experimenting with my style, seeing how it looks. Here's some initial sketches for you!

A Cockapoo. Essentially a mass of black curls...couldn't have picked a harder breed to start with!
A German Shepherd. One of my favourite breeds! This one is only a youngster!

Slightly more cartoony style to get across expressions better.


I'll try and keep updating more often, and will be doing an overhaul on my website sometime soon. Don't forget there's also my sketchbook link in the meantime!

Practice, practice

Hey guys, I've been busy with uni work and with Victoriana so for now have a practice picture of Link! I'm trying to get used to sketching straight into Manga Studio with my tablet and using its tone settings ...Link is always a great source of inspiration.  View fullsize for the full impact!

And a quick kinda-self portrait drawn straight into photoshop because I haven't done much colour work recently:
And a quick note to say that I was featured on the Business Boom Collective HERE.

Eye of the Tiger

Illustrations for a narrative based on the song 'Eye of the Tiger' by Survivor.
In Japan they have these amazing embroidered satin baseball jackets that look very gangsta, which was the inspiration for this. I've also been experimenting with composition and dramatic effect. Feedback on these is appreciated!

Character Design

Been ill recently, so decided to redesign an old character of mine to make myself feel better. The new and improved Guardian!
