EY UP!!!



Hullo!! Sorry for the huge gap in postings. I've been ridiculously busy working on two new animated shorts that, hopefully, I'll be allowed to post on here at some point not too far in the future. In the meantime though, here are a couple of new things...
Above is a self-promotion piece to be published in next years Art Book.


This furry fella is for The Ark Project. A book project commissioning over 200 designers and illustrators from around the world to produce an image of a species from their native country. I chose the Red Squirrel. There's some great illustrators who took part in the project including Jon Burgerman, Tado, Ben Newman, Friends With You, Christian Montenegro and many, many more. Check it out and buy the book as apparently the money goes to charity. I can't remember which one but I'm pretty sure it's something to do with animals...



And lastly for now, I'm happy to say my illustration agent has started selling signed prints of my work. You can buy them online through my agent here. Hope you like them!

LITTLE RIKKE








Here are the opening title sequence and end credits for a TV show pilot I co-directed with the show creator and massively talented Rikke Asbjorn (animator on the Gorillaz videos and Monkey Opera).
It's a product of my day job at the Cartoon Network Development Studio where we're currently developing shows for TV. We produce one eleven-minute super-animatic and colour bible for each show which are then pitched to our bosses at CN worldwide.

Unfortunately I'm not allowed to show the whole animatic here but I hope you like this little taster!

CEREAL KILLERS COVER!



Doktor Viktor Von Kreep of Kreepsville Industries kindly asked me to provide a cover for his upcoming cartoon art book CEREAL KILLERS and here's what I came up with...

Also the good Doktor interviewed me for his new CARTOON FUNLAND blog. Click on the link if you want to read my retarded waffling.

MIXED BAG OF GUFF!






The first one was for a computer magazine article about multi-tasking. The second and third were both pitches, and the last bunch of monkeys were for a kids book.

ANIMATION - MORE ROBOTBOY BGS






Trawling through the gloomy recesses of my computer's futuristic mind I stumbled upon some more BGs from Robotboy season one. Again I tip my hat to the great team of artists we had working with us.
All Robotboy images are copyright either Alphanim or Cartoon Network...
