Here are a couple of efforts at colouring in Photoshop, still getting the hang of this, getting better though I think. I just need a little more patience with it.

More designs.

2011-08-12T19:36:00.000+01:00

OK, Have the story in my head and 90% of the main character worked out, just trying to find that elusive "look" that always seems to take an age and then one little detail makes it.

Pretty close now, even made a little clay model for help ( and it did ).

Cover step by step

2011-08-09T11:33:00.000+01:00

Hello,

Here's a run down on the process.

This was the original thumbnail.

Then the pencils sketch, followed by a rough lighting guide.

Started inking, but still wasn't sure at this stage how much hair to give him.

Finished inks

This was the tricky part, only played around colouring in Photoshop before, but made a decision early on that this would be my first "proper go"

Then added the old logo

Which, to me, didn't sit well so I designed another.

That's all folks!

Hi,

The new issue of Zarjaz is due through everyone's letter box this week.

Here are a few pages of Mine and Rich's story, I tried to keep the layout really simple and not get bogged down with detail due to the book being printed at A5.

Cheers

2011-03-15T17:03:00.000Z

Hello,

We've decided that Damaged Goods has collected enough dust and it's time to take things into our own hands and publish the book ourselves, more updates to follow.

Viper try out

Had a chance to try out for Viper comics, actually got the jobs but then had to drop out due to various reasons.

Hi,

After a pretty shitty year that included more bad points than good, I'm going to try and start this year off as positive as possible.

Hope you can do the same.

Story is full of farm yard animals, couldn't resist using my dog.

Character designs

2010-11-22T21:07:00.000Z

Been sketching like mad recently, designing a character for a story I can't get out of my head.

These were done in the car on my break

I then moved on to these and tried refining the look. Looking for reference pics, of course you can't help but come across Disney's Ratatouille, but I found these really helpfull.

So, without trying to rip off the Disney look completely,I think I've found my Lead Character, just going to keep redrawing him now (while designing the other farm animals) and make it second nature and see if I can make him evolve into something that looks mine.

Cheers.
