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:

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.

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!

More Character Design

 A continuation of the last post, here's some more character design stuff for my neo-noir movie. Inked by hand and then quick slap of colour on photoshop.

Our heroine (whose name i still haven't decided on - maybe Claire?) in some cool threads. She looks a bit moody, but then an old friend has just turned up dead on her doorstop so it might be excusable.

Anna is currently one of my favourites, which is a shame, since she spends most of the movie dead and only really appears in flashbacks. Here's the proof:

Finally, Liam, who gave me so much trouble and he's still being developed. Such a hard character to pin down! Slowly getting there.

Still a few more central characters to design, then on to storyboarding! I'm looking forward to it!

Character Design Process

Been working on some character design this week; these show you the process. This heroine is a young reporter whose friend has just shown up dead on her doorstop...

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!
