Grrrr
I'm afraid to say that you can expect to see less updates on my blog in the future; why? Because someone at my work looked over my shoulder while I was drawing at lunchtime, made an assumption about what they were looking at and complained to Human Resources that I was drawing "sexual violence".
It's an accusation I've had thrown against me before (and I'm sure I will again) and it never fails to annoy me for one simple reason; I don't draw sexual violence! I will hold my hands up proudly to drawing perverse, weird and occasionally twisted art, but all fictional parties involved in my pics are always doing so consensually; If anything it's normally the women being the instigators!
I personally think that some people (women AND men) have issues with women being portrayed as people who want weird sex and that only men have strange fantasies, which is patently not the case. When this type of person sees an image in which a woman is (for example) getting it on with a giant squid, they immediately cry "rape!" no matter how much the woman is obviously enjoying herself.
Anyway, just to prove my point, here is a collage of women crying, screaming, angry, sad and being abused...sigh :(
The upshot of this whole episode is that I can no longer draw at work, and because whoever complained did so anonymously rather than to my face I have to go around wondering who has such a twisted opinion of me.
But don't worry! I'll still be drawing and posting filthy femmes and perverted pics, just not at work :P
Rant over!
more art soon.

The danger of playing too much silent hill
Is that you end up doodling silly stuff like this...
::edit::
okay, I've bowed to popular pressure and taken down the alligator woman pic... instead, here's a detail of the still ongoing three pigs picture:

Also, I recently did some illustrations for Bizarre magazine for an article about a man (true story!) who had a "relationship" with a dolphin. The relevant issue should either be out now or in the next couple of days so go and buy yourself a copy to see the rest of the pictures.
Other news: I've been finding it a bit tricky to keep track of who's who in the comments because there are a few different people posting under "anonymous", so I'm going to disable the ability to post anonymously. Sorry if it causes you problems!

Pam and Zlata speedpaints
Just a couple of quick speedpaints this update. The first one is of the lovely Pam Grier and the second is of the astounding Zlata.
I could draw Zlata (and I have done) over and over and over again; she makes perfect reference material! You can check out her website here:
Zlatas amazing contortion website!


Here's a few grabs from the process of this speedpaint: I decided to start off with some fairly funky colours to hopefully give the final image a bit more punch. Whether it worked or not is dubious but it was fun to do.

Timesplitters

One of my favourite features of Blogspot (which I only discovered recently because I'm a bit of a technophobe) is that it has an inbuilt stats tracker which means I can follow some of the traffic which comes through here and see where it's come from.
I was having a little nose around a couple of days ago when I saw I was getting some traffic from a Timesplitters forum, where someone had posted up a link to my blog.
As some of the people who read this blog already know, I was the lead character artist on the three Timesplitters console games. I probably designed 80-90% of all the characters across the 3 games, built and textured around 60-70% of the models and gave approval on all the rest.
I thought I'd stick up a few old designs for any TS fanboys to have a gander at - These are all pretty old now mind, and I'd just barely begun to get to grips with digital painting so apologies for the poor quality.



oh yeah, and here are some of the lovely things they were saying about me on the forums :P"my opinion on the 'artist' is that he's a bit of a nutter. The majority of his 'works of art' are nothing more than glorified graffiti, the likes of which school children have been drawing on the desks for years...they usually grow out of it when they're around 11 though, not try to add to it and label it art."
"[a] gothic, erotica artist who seems to have a fixation on female genitalia and rape."
"I don't care if he calls it "art" or not. Anyone who would spend their time making stuff like that, especially in that quantity...There's something deeply wrong with them."
"maybe he's just sexually frustrated"
Needless to say, me and my missus had quite a good laugh about all these.
More art soon.

I've decided to put together 5 sets of postcard sized prints, head over to my print site to check out the full set contents and prices etc.

They'll make excellent stocking fillers for any perverts you know!
