Newtasty

There’s a nice feature over at Graniph Labs, did a series of tees with them a couple of years back and hope to do some more soon.

Pitched for a job recently involving another comic book, didn’t materialize in the end but I thought I would share some of the pitch samples. Went for a fairly traditional style as per request, not really my style of colouring either but good to try it out and the whole thing was good practice and a chance to blow off those comic book cobwebs. Always helps to be versatile!

Missing Graniph t-shirt design, not sure if they ever made this one

New look for the site, it’s a work in progress at the moment so there might be a few bits upside down and some manholes without covers…

I really don’t even remember working on this, i assume it was character design sketches but who knows! I do know it was for Namco’s Moto GP3 and I also know I hate drawing vehicles. And horses.

This is great going thru all my old files, found a bunch of pictures from the Pop which was an exhibition of gig poster art. I had around 10 pieces displayed, lots of ColdRice posters. For all the colours and painstaking hours I spent on some of the ColdRice posters, my favourite was always this Weird War poster I made which took about 10 minutes. Always the way isn’t it?

Yeeeears ago Levi’s comissioned me and my buddy Stef to do an instore painting at the opening of one of their stores. I decided denim, rock n’ roll, so I did a portrait of a girl who wants to be Iggy Pop and we surrounded it with printed confessions from groupies.
Here’s the initial sketch I did and some photos from the event. yeeeears ago and I still have the free jeans they gave me!

More dust bunnies! A ruck of rough concept sketches for the cover of Segas Bayonetta.

More stuff I’ve found under my hard drives cushions while I was spring cleaning, this was something I worked on with frequent collaborators Fluid Design for Sega’s Mad World. We needed a handful of sketched front cover concepts and as the game has a very specific look I couldn’t really stray too far so just lots black & white with blood and anger. Fun!
