Walk cycle with Maya
Thoroughly enjoying myself with 3D.
Whilst I'm in Dublin I have a lot of free time after work so I thought I'd be productive.
I was watching a documentary on the bayeux tapestry and wanted to use that a a reference for modelling with Maya.
I decided to tackle a boat and rigged up two little fellas.

GERONIMO. My attempt at cartoon animation :)
It took 2 weeks on and off to complete.
I present.. my first animated cartoon! :)
I really enjoy drawing cartoon things and animating with After Effects.
It never occurred to me to put the two together until a couple of weeks ago.
Rigging characters and editing with After Effects.
Cleaning up the scanned images and colouring in with Photoshop.
Pencil drawings of all the assets.

Dreamscape
This dreamscape started as a pencil drawing which I then inked and scanned into photoshop CS6 to tinker with.
Third draft.

Second draft.
Pencil and inking stage.
That's me in the middle there being lifted from my bed.

Going Postal by Terry Pratchett
Just finished the illustration and graphics on this poster. It's a stage adaptation of Going Postal by Terry Pratchett. This project was directed by Lisa Hamilton-James for ITV West.
This was the pencil and inking stage:
Here are some of my previous work for ITV West.

Fairies and Cherubs
Continuing with my fascination with oil painting. As much as I love working on Photoshop, it's nice every once in a while to move away from the computer and use the good old paint brush on canvas.
Corel Photo Paint
Around 1999 - 2000 a friend at college introduced me to Corel Photo Paint 5.
At first I scoffed at the idea of using computers with my artwork, but the more I experimented with the software the more I found it a liberating experience.
I no longer had to worry about making mistakes and could purely focus on making pictures I thought looked awesome.
So as soon as I got my head around it, overwhelming urge to do a bunch of light sabres..
and heat vision, and ufos..
