Robot Me.

This piece is done along with other illustrators in my class for a secret reason currently ;) Will update this post at a later date with the reasoning behind it but yeah, here is my interpretation of me as a robot...

Many influences in it from old retro toy robots, film/TV robots & various aspects of technology.

Great fun to do!

Freddie Mercury Sketch

Basically it's just what it says it is :) Fancied drawing something & the legendary Queen frontman Freddie Mercury was the outcome.

British Wildlife Postcards; River Birds - Kingfisher

I have decided to put upon myself a task to create a series of postcards based upon British Wildlife, be it butterflies, small mammals, amphibians/reptiles, river birds etc etc :)
Started with river birds & I aim to do five animals for each set as such, so for River Birds it shall be; Kingfisher, Swan, Mallard, Moorhen & Heron.

The following is the first of those five, the Common (Eurasian) Kingfisher with it's brightly coloured orange & blue feathers.

Gone for a nostalgic 70's feel with the colour scheme / textures / floral patterns & such like. Hope people like it! The floral pattern brushes were given to me on file by a friend & in all honesty I have no idea where they came from to give credit to the creator, apologies :S

Will most likely attempt the Heron one next over the next few days.

Mermaid

Done this piece to exhibit at my exhibition for college & possibly New Designer's in London. Very much inspired by the latest Pirates of the Caribbean; On Stranger Tides & the concept art for the mermaids. Couple of people have also said it looks like the strange creatures in the Harry Potter films in Hogwarts Lake, to which I definitely cannot disagree lol

Used a mixture of line art illustration, digital colouring & photo manipulation to create the piece.
