Sketch-a-lot

Back to iPhone smearing. I have got so much going on at the minute that if  make the deadline for the “mutation nation” contest – it will be a success on its own. I know I am going for something with claws… that’s pretty much it. I like the sketch, though and if not now [...]

We went to a great place yesterday. Bodeans in Soho – the best BBQ ribs in London, apparently. I’ve not had much experience with London’s BBQ joints but it was really close to Carnivore’s Heaven, by my standards. I am sure I’ll be back there pretty soon.
So this morning I did this porca, I mean [...]

Two books came in today.
Latest issue of ImagineFX and ‘The Rough Guide to Thailand’. We’re off in 20 days and still haven’t book anywhere to stay and the trip plan itself is still, well – rough to say the least, so I guess I will do some reading of the latter tonight and take the [...]

Presenting the first contestant to the Mutation Nation challenge on ArtOrder. A cross between a Tarsier and a Peacock. I did this sketch this morning on the tube and coloured it quickly with some custom brushes during the lunch-break.
It’s an idea to explore – matching something that’s generally accepted as symbol of beauty (or was [...]

Friday monkey project. I was just going to put a plain sketch up as I only had 10 minutes to do this update when I realised there’s so many quick ways to spruce the monkey up with a little help of a friend.
Three sets of levely splatter and watercolour brushes downloaded from brushking.eu gave it [...]

In fact, [...]

Some character design sketches. Judging by what’s on the news recently the theme lines up nicely with approaching elections, too…  It is not always that I manage to catch up with current events so, yeah! How about that!?;)
Speaking of character design, there is a really cool challenge going on on the art order. The theme [...]

Gluttony – I just learned this word looking for keywords for this image. I cannot stop thinking about food and it shows in my recent sketches. It has got a therapeutic effect. Not. I want my Ben&Jerry’s. NOW!

Some vector fun, based on a sketch I did a while ago. It could probably be useful for an article on how to utilize your twitter followers. I am no writer, so I am just going to stop here.
Cheers,

Yup, you Cods and Haddocks gonna get it today while we’re all stuffing our faces with the Great Battered British Treasure. I am not british but I know I will…
Enjoy!:)
