Living Room Background



This is the background for my main characters living room/kitchen. This background is doing my nut in!! Haha. Its nearly 2am and it's still not how I want it to be. It needs more props, lines need to be neater and some areas need painting. So I'm gonna go back to it I think as I need to hand in more than one background...

Doggy Poses

Colour work takes yonks! There are few things I want to change as the lil doggy looks weird on some profile views. Hopefully I will have time before the deadline but it's looking unlikely. Havent got round to my personal project and animatic yet. I finally have a week off work so I'm getting on it!

Rough Backgrounds

Here are some rough layouts I've been working on for my final backgrounds. I'm finding colour to be difficult for some reason. I've done so many tests but the colours still don't suit well with the characters! Why no work??




More colourful or more dark? Hmmm

Coloured Expressions

Finally got round to colouring up some of my character work. I didn't realise how long it takes. Still got to do all the poses and finish the turn arounds. Loads to do. Only got a few characters done so far but I'll try and put more up soon. Been busy trying to teach myself Google Sketchup to help me with my background designs. Why didn't I learn it earlier!?? It makes it so much easier.

Character Expressions

It's so hard to keep the characters shape and proportions when doing expressions! I shall be colouring some of these soon :D





Character Action Poses

Character stuff is really taking a long time! I find it soo hard to do poses and have been working on them for 2 weeks now to try and get a few good ones that I can colour for my final! My scanner is a bit poop so the quality is a bit bad!

Ultimate Image





This is a piece for the business module in uni. We had to create a piece that sums up ourselves and our work. I didn't know how to attempt the project without doing a self portrait! I find I enjoy traditional painting and I'm now learning how to do it digitally. I thought I would take this aspect in the final image. Even though it kinda suggests I'm messy and tend to get paint in my hair. Here are some variations as I still cant decide which background I like the best.
