Begin again

 Thinking of picking this blog up again. I know it’s still kinda an old format and no one really uses it but I still love looking at Andreas Deja’s blog and felt inspired to maybe give this a go again.

When I first started this blog I had just started working in the games industry and was really wanting to improve as an artist in the areas I was rediscovering my love for, particularly the Disney animated style. A lot of time has passed since then and I’ve improve a fair bit and made a lot of art.

Here’s a few of my 3d work from the past few years that I still like…

Study of the Chris Sanders character “Nani” from “Lilo and Stich”

Study of Lara Croft based on a illustration from Dylan Ekren.

Sculpt of Chel from “Road to Eldorado”

Model of Chun Li of my own design.

Same as with my older posts I still continue to work on and try to improve my 2d drawing skills and I’m working on a few personal projects that I’ll share more of as I progress with them. For now here’s a few 2d pieces to give a taste of what I’ve been up to all this time, these are actually a few years old already but I have a lot of catching up to do with sharing my work…


Did this for a ‘draw this in your style’ trend that happened at the start of lockdown.

Pres Romanillos

 Saw these great pictures today, shared by Paul Briggs on twitter of Pres Romanillos animation desk, which I believe is now on display at the Walt Disney studio. Just look at those carvings!  Pres was a phenomenal artist and we lost him far too soon! I discovered him and his work after he had passed away though I’m very glad I got to grow up watching his work.  Here’s some photos of a book I own of his work, I love the way he could draw the figure, so much gesture and believable weight. Rest in peace Pres, and thanks for you wonderful art!

Morrigan rotation animation

 Little loop rotation of the character Morrigan. I’m enjoying working traditionally, I need to start working through some proper exercises though.

New Tools - Procreate Dreams!

So this week procreate released their latest app, Procreate Dreams. I've been very excited for the potential of this software. I use Procreate daily and they’ve really set a precedent as one of the best artists tools out there, so it’s so exciting to see them turn that high quality potential to an animation focused application. Earlier this year I did an animation test for my personal project and i really found myself fighting with the limitations of the base procreate software. Seeing the features this app promises it was looking like it might solve all my issues.  Well now that's its out I've had a day or two to start playing with it. Here's the first few animations I've done in the software. So does it solve all my problems and is it really the animation software we've all been hoping for... not quite yet, but its close! There is a lot to improve with the software at the moment and some basic functionality that its missing.  Unfortunately the drawing side of ...
