Check Out This Flava

These are three double page spreads from my Illustrated Book project. Two terms in the making at the deadline is in just over a week...golly. I will post the whole thing when it's all finished, but these are the colour spreads I've been working on. Hope you guys dig them.

Also an initial rough from a poster project we have on at the moment. As the poster should explain, it's for Faust the opera.

Un Petit Amuse Bouche

Just thought I'd put up a quick colour sketch I have of Frederick, Colonel Fazackerley's chef, from my Illustrated Book project. The deadline is a few weeks away, it's almost finished! I will do my best to put more of it up soon.

Edit: fixed by Archie Bagnall

Latest Illustration Mission

Our latest project is on maps. I'm doing some mysterious crime scenes. It looks like it's up to you, dear blog readers, to work out who murdered the Earl of Boswell and Lady Dryden!

The Blue Junk Band's Junk Beats And Blues Treats

Here is a video I made.

A Wild Blog Update Appears!

Since I was getting a new iPod, I decided it needed a new case. I'd previously been using an awesome sticker by Ric Stultz. But this time I thought I'd make my own.

This was a little off-shoot from the latest project we have on the course. It's based on the figure, and involves creating a 3D sculpture. It's hardly my strong suit, but I'm giving it a go. I'll post more when the project finishes in a couple of weeks.

Stress, Relax, Repeat

The little robot may be talk a big game, but his eyes are begging for a moonlit stroll along the beach.

So the first term of Illustration is drawing to a close- this is the last week and then we have a study trip to London, which should be good to see some shows, some friends, and some of the illustration industry.

But before all that we have to get through this week of assessments, presentations and deadlines. Very dull. And hard, considering the amount of work we have had piled on this term. I won't go into details, suffice to say none of us like it very much.

In slightly more awesome news, I like this comic.

GET OFF MY BACK ALRIGHT I'LL POST SOME BETTER AND MORE RELEVANT ARTWORK SOON. SHIT.

Blog update, I choose you!

Thought I should do a quick update with some more of the projects we have been doing at uni- first, a self portrait project. The first is how people see me, the second, how I would like people to see me. Very tongue-in-cheek, I'm not actually this self-centered.


Also, three of the characters from my Illustrated Book project- "Colonel Fazackerly Butterworth-Toast", and Fitcham and Frederick.
