Popbusters!

I've started thinking about getting work in magazine illustration, so this is my first piece of artwork based on an existing article. Its a story from an issue of Empire magazine (circa last summer, big pop out Incredible Hulk on the cover) about the rise and fall of movie cash-in pop songs like that terrible Titanic one and that equally terrible Robin Hood (Prince of thieves) one.

I still maintain that MC Hammer's song for The Addams Family was awesome though.

Six artist, Twelve words.

Here's the flyer for a small exhibition I'm taking part in in September. Each of the six artists involved were given two random words and asked to create a short comic story around them. I was given 'Key' and 'Pulse' and proceeded to write the most insane comic ever. If you're in the area you should come and check it out, there are some amazing artists involved.

What Happens...

Here are my character designs for "What Happens..." a brilliant comic book written by Ian Moore. The story follows Jon and Sue, a couple from Scotland that get caught up in a crazy world of super powered meta-singularities, inquisitive extra terrestrials, and a massive robot that smashes New York right up. Above are my first designs which needed a little tweak to capture the essence of the characters...

Here is my second pass at the main characters which both Ian and I agreed on. More 'What Happens...' to come soon, Keep watching the comic shelves! (seriously, watch them, I steal stuff)
