Mmmmm.....honey .


Still VERY busy . But ......I am sketching .
With the result that things will get REALLY rough and scrappy here for the next while .
Sketches are more fun anyway .

So - fast and scrappy it is .................

Cheers all for stopping by .

Deeper in work that is...........

Another Sketch . Pretty scrappy , but still sorta fun .
A different version of the one below .

I recently saw a trailer for the movie I worked on at Sony for a year and a half .
You can view it along with any future updates HERE

The trailer does not do the movie justice but hopefully the future trailers will .
If you like seeing lots of stuff getting smashed and enjoy the odd serious helping of food
then this might just be the movie for you . I had so much fun playing with scale on this one .
Big , loud , explosive and fun !

I'm in another studio right now plugging away .
We have been extremely busy lately . Really busy .
Hence the slow paced blogging on my behalf .

Sorry .

Been a while I guess ....................



Hope to get back to posting more frequently - even if it's just sketches .

Cheers to all for stopping by .

Well - long time no see again . I went on a quick vacation after reaching burn out point a while back .
I don't know if it worked . I'm jet lagged to almighty hell and work seems to be piling up again .
I really have not been diligent in doing my own work lately and I really need to get back to it .
This is made all the more difficult with the jet lag and generally feeling uninspired .

This was something quickly done at the last minute for a charity event about which you can find the details HERE .
It was organised by the extremely talented artists - Margaret Wuller and Rachel Tiep-Daniels of Dreamworks , and I was very glad to have been invited to take part .
If you jump to the link you'll see many more samples from the folks at the studio .
I sincerely think it is for a good cause and hope that it goes very well .

This is a panel from the comic book .
That project and the other one have been slow to materialize over the last year as work was BUSY .
I am still just as busy with WORK work , but now my commute is just ever so slightly shorter .
I have had the good fortune to have worked with some of the best people in the industry at Sony animation over the last 2 years .
I worked on a very fun project with the best crew one could have hoped for .
It was a great experience and I want to thank each and every person who inspired me .

So . What now ?
Well......as i said I now have a shorter commute . That means I am supposed to have more time .
Now - maybe , just maybe , I might get one of these projects of mine finished .
Here's hoping .

Cheers all .

Near Mullagh - back home .

Next ? - something more imaginative .

Cheers .

Strong heat near the trees .

Well - you have probably noticed that between the gallery and the blog things have been screwy lately .
That's because someone compromised the coppermine code so I had to update before i got hacked .
Along with that the nucleus blog code had to be updated . Now that's screwy too and keeps asking for peoples emails and stuff .
Rest assured things will be back to normal in the next few days . .. .On top of that I'm building a new rig to paint on as the old one is not feeling the best .
Despite me slapping it silly a few times and complimenting it with appropriate metaphors it's having trouble coming to it's senses .
While building the new rig I found that I need more power . So a call to the electrician is in order . More amps!!!!!More watts!!!

Also work is busy . Very busy .
If you want to know what I'm working on read this

That article was written nearly three years ago . I've been on this project nearly 1.5 years and it's been a BLAST .
It's stylish , epic , and ...... tasty .
So much talent at this studio .... a great experience !


Oh - and I am getting a new roof on my house - right above the art room .
Throw in guests from outta town visiting in stages and you have the perfect formula for lunacy .
SOoooooooooo - back soon with my usual self and the usual blog.

Until then it's back to quake for the ds .

YEEEEHHHHAAAAAAAAA!
