The last... last crusade.
Indiana Jones 4… 50% excitement - 50% curiosity. Spielberg re-visiting his popcorn film making, and with a new take on the characters. The cgi special effects shunned… and we get a new drew struzen poster!
Life Drawing/sculpting
Uli kindly lets us take over the studio once a week to arrange life drawing, these were yesterday’s creations. Thee sculpt was from a 45 min pose. The first photo was the angle I set myself up. As you can see from the second photo I was to lazy to move around. But it was great fun.space cadet
The most enjoyable part of an animation venture is creating the initial idea . I lose interest once I sit down to do it- ( when the hard work starts).
I say this because im currently trying to work on my own film, where inspiration comes and goes. I battle to stop beginning other projects but sometimes I need to just create something - get it out my system - and put it away on the shelf. so here it is... a sculpt of a character
easy rider
I hate my laptop screen, strong word 'hate' but I do, it lightens everything. I colour something... am happy with it, have a look on another monitor and I can barely see the thing especially dark pictures (obviously). its really frustrating, but I prefer drawing on the laptop to the pc. portability is great!
Via the magic of the curves tool... we have this!
Big Giant Rabbit
so the sounds a bit out-of-sync...
Does anyone know how to get a youtube in sync? i uploaded a avi and an mpeg, both rubbish!
Hello !
Mr Cosmic and his chin
After a bloging pause I finally got some motivation to post some new artwork. the picture above is from a quick doodle which I later coloured on the pc. Somewhat meaningless, but part of my new years resolution is to sketch more... and watch less big brother! 
Rodin
Will talking to his pupils.
This week I visited the fantastic Rodin exhibition at the royal academy with a few friends on a 'sketch crawl'.
At first I questioned drawing sculptures, but I really enjoyed it. it’s a great way to really study a sculpt and take it all in. drawing these instead of life made me concentrate more the mass of the objects and keeping that consistent. I recommend visiting the exhibition .

Pirates ahoy !
After watching the swashbuckling movie master and commander this weekend I dug up some old pictures. They were part of a comic book I started at college, so bear with me, They were the best of the bunch.
Domestos
A few weeks back we worked on a pitch for the domestos ads. Sadly unsuccessful (do'h!)… anyway a concept I did .
The Airship Chronicles
I have updated my Airship blog, not much but a bit. I should have better things to do with my time... actually I do have better thing to do...unfortunately I cant stop developing the chronicles and thinking about stories. Meanwhile hope you enjoy the blog. 
ANIMAL!
Been a while since I posted, (had to think about my password). Got a few things to post up, this blog and the airship chronicles. So come back soon!
Meanwhile take a peek at the images below.
My elder sister recently got married (congratulation!), instead of table numbers for the sit-down meal they had different animal pictures on each table, (Safari animals with relevance to the honeymoon). These are the images, ill post more soon.
The giant from the Depth
This was my last entry for Eurovision, (Giants) sadly only 6 entries this time. next time is 'All must play!'
One-of-those
Baby one-of-those is growing up fast! Celebrating his first birthday,
Mother tells him to make a wish.
Clash of the special-effect techniques
Yesterday I read over on 'animated-news' Warner brothers are planning a remake of Clash of the Titans. Instantly I mumbled and cursed in annoyed grunts. I grew up watching this film... all Harryhausen movies.... why remake it!
I hope they rework the story based on the mythology and not recreate the Harryhausens film with cgi.
Never smile at an Alligator!
My blog’s moving along at a slow pace at the moment, been busy.
Please stop by my air ship chronicles blog.
Smudge
Mountain - sea - lake... inspired by watching endless Bob Ross videos when i was at school.
This was my first go with a wacom tablet at Uli’s.
Textures
This background, i did a few years ago for a uni project, when i first started playing around with layers in Photoshop. The texture on the walls were scanned from a small paper bag out of an art shop. You can find great textures all over the place, but now i collect these bags whenever one looks interesting. I'll post up some more examples soon.
