I've been pretty busy this month, and I'm going to Antartica next week so I thought I'd better put something up even if I haven't got anything finished. I've been mostly doing work I can't show, like some more art for Belladonna and some concepts for Warren Speed, but here are a few work in progress bits and sketches that I can show:
1. A pinup I'm working on for the amazing Leyla Rose
2. I've been fiddling with this sailor image on and off for ages. Maybe one day it'll be finished!
3. Trying out colour schemes
4. The process gif of the engine driver piece; I did this one a little differently because it would have taken me too long to work out all the perspective on paper,so I built a rough 3D model of the train interior to draw over instead.




Lastly, the Aliens Vs. Predator game (which I did character work on) is coming out soon , and it's pretty good fun. If you're into games why not give it a go; there is a free demo download available at the minute.
See you when I return from the frozen tundra!
