ESting 2015 Entry

TPoint Solutions

Here is a video I have been working on at Mad Elephant Design:

Well worth a look!

Microsoft Dynamics

A promotional video for Microsoft Dynamics, for which I provided the animation assets.

Meet The Mayans

Here's an illustration done for a competition based on a Mayan Ritual theme, I thought I'd put a more original slant on the idea though.

Cheque

This illustration is based on one of today's stories from the BBC about RBS boss, Fred Goodwin, being stripped of his knighthood.

They're watching you...

An interesting article came up in the BBC news feed today, so I produced this editorial illustration for it. The article covers a couple being turned away from The United States because of a tweet that one of them made.

Wave goodbye to the circus

The second illustration of the day, this time based on an article about the decline of the Sumatran Elephant from The Guardian.

Oil

A simple editorial illustration based on the recent troubles facing the world's oil industries.

Merry Christmas!

As a Christmas treat, here's a seasonal competition entry I finished just before the holidays.

Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year...

...Enjoy!

Durham City Scuba

This flyer is an old update from my portfolio back catalogue. I was asked to provide the design and an illustration for this flyer by Durham City Scuba. I was also asked to convert their existing livery to vector based imagery, so that it could be used at high sizes and resolutions.

Double Whammy

For the first time ever, I've made two posts in one day. How very productive, maybe I'm turning over a new leaf?

New Illustrations - Now with extra ink!

These were fairly quick; drawn, inked and touched up - all done today.

I've been playing around with some ink, with a view to doing some T-Shirts/Branding of my own. There are more illustrations on the way, and one or two that I'm not sure whether I can release yet. Watch this space...

Leftovers

These are two designs that I did for a competition run by IdeasTap for a brief entitled "Leftovers". Since we have nothing but turkey sandwiches for lunch for about a week after Christmas in my house, it seemed like the next logical step to ask what zombies eat on Boxing Day?

There are two variations on the same design and I'm still mulling over which one I prefer.

Braaaaaaainnnss.....

The Monk

This image took way to long too finish off, but I'm happy with how it turned out. The small blog image here doesn't do it it's full glorious justice - but you can get the jist. It ended up looking quite religious, Monks'll do that for you.

Warhead

These are some images I just finished, they're based on the other posters I put up at the start of the blog.

I've been experimenting with the transparency masking in Photoshop to get the distressed look and I put a canvas texture into the image to give it a more tactile impression.

In the beginning...

Here are a few images to get things started: These are the beginnings of a poster for a local band, I experimented with a little bit of half-tone texture and a few tweaks to the palette to give a nice screen print look.

Stay tuned...
