Some more of those Radger character profile commissions for the Radgers of Asora novel.

Here's that fluffy raptor I posted yesterday, now with colour! Nothing fancy in terms of detail or finish or in terms of colour pallet, just wanted to practise feathers really and get something finished fairly quickly. It doesn't look as rich as it did on my Cintiq screen, so I guess that's something to watch out for in future.

Fluffy little velociraptor. Sketching on the Cintiq feels infinitely more natural and as a result easier and faster. No idea why I held off getting one for so long... I guess I was just stuck in the mindset of "an artist never blames their tools".

Legs are difficult, so thought I'd practise from some references gathered here

Quick Sonic doodle on the Cintiq! Feels weird but wow so much more intuitive and quick...

Da Vinci's flying machines themed wing coaster concept... I actually had this idea for a flying coaster years ago, but whilst flying coasters sort of faded into obscurity, it feels like everyone wants a wing coaster. So, yeah. Originally I had imagined a more steampunk design, but I think something like this would fit better in the kind of parks who would entertain such high levels of scenic design. More info and other themed design work can be found here!

Recent nautilus shirt commission. Dunno why, but I just like the way this one turned out. It's a bit more painterly than usual. More info about my bleach shirts here.

Future Trunks from DragonBall! I don't draw him often because his hair is a pain, but this turned out alright!

Couple more Radger commissions in various stages of sketchyness. The Radgers are a civilization of humanoid badgers from a novel.

Colours for that Beerus sketch! I really enjoy working with purple... Dunno why, it just mixes well with so many other colours and is relatively easy to darken or lighten. By comparison, I hate working with green.

How cool would a kind of steampunk Da Vinci flying machine themed wing coaster be? I think pretty cool. More attraction design here.


Saturday 12 November 2016

I often find the Humpback whale design the most difficult to keep consistent, but I particularly like how this one turned out. Another commission, more info here.

An old sketchbook drawing I scanned back in July with the intention of colourising, but more important things got in the way and when I wanted to art for fun I just wanted to sketch. But finally here it is.


Part of my retheme concept for Chessington's Runnaway Train that became the Scorpion Express. A "what if". More theme park concepts on my specialised portfolio.

Initial sketch of a Radger from this project a while back. The author got back in touch to commission some character profile images! This one's name is Broc and he's a mechanic of sorts.

Two recent bleach shirts, both featuring Tyrannosaurus!

This was the first time I'd worked on purple and it looks awesome. Really great contrast, such a striking colour. Check out my Etsy store if you would like to order a similar shirt.

Recently, Dinosaur podcast I Know Dino mentioned my bleach shirts in their episode on Vastatosaurus rex. You should go check out their awesome show.

I was looking at (and wanting) the dinosaur toys by Creative Beast and this generic feathered raptor thing happened.

I've been struggling a lot with hands. Past few days I've tried to draw a lot of hands from reference. Most I didn't bother saving, but I saved some from today.
