The End is Nigh!

Here's a book cover I've been working on this week, for the YA book 'The Doomspell' by Cliff McNish, as well as some of my development thumbnails.

Last week in the studio before final ever hand in at the end of the month! Time flies!

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!

Business Cards!

It's almost time for our trip to London to meet agents and companies, and the New Designers show is also coming up fast, so most of the class has been working on getting some business cards made up - including yours truly!
Mine are supposed to be varied in style but still cohesive as a representation of what I do and how I draw or visualise. Here are the final designs to be sent off tomorrow:

And on the back of all of them will be this:

 

Some of my classmates reckon the back image is a bit intimidating, but I'm only smiling! I don't really like drawing myself but I am proud of my hat. Also redesigned my website if you haven't seen it yet!

Fun times!

You know that feeling where you want to draw, but don't know what? And how you work on something for hours but end up disliking it...

Business card design number one!

Birthday E-card for my aunt :)

Illustrated Quotes and Sayings 8

This is my final for the Falmouth Illustrated Quotes and Sayings book 8!
My quote is: 'I need your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle,' (from Terminator 2.)

And a matching cover:

Quick update (and Pokemon)

Hey guys, sorry it's been so long since I updated! Been working on a few things which I'll try to pull together and post up.

If you follow me on tumblr (geegrevesy or the 'Sketchbook' link) you'll have seen some of these already, but I've been drawing pokemon as warm-ups since I've started working almost completely digitally. Some of my favourites so far:

 And here's a digital painting I've done for my grandma's birthday, trying a more painterly style:

Colour Rough

Here's the colour rough for my Quotes and Sayings Book entry. (My quote is "I need your clothes, our boots, and your motorcycle." From Terminator 2)

Storyboarding update

Been storyboarding for my neo-noir project! Here are a few of the visuals to give you an idea what its looking like so far (with directions/text removed):

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.
