Monkey Gone To Shellac

Busy busy over the last few months - finally got some spare time to do some painting!

My camera's gubbed so I ended up scanning the painting in sections & shopping the joins (painting's approx 12 x 18") Still a work in progress but most of the detail and colour's blocked in.


















Bit late but thanks again to Lisa for all the business advice over the months - much appreciated.
Cheers aswell to Jon for nabbing us a Shellac ticket!

Updates? - never heard of such a thing.

Hello,

Not updated the blog thingy for ages now - think the only arty stuff I've been doing lately's the painting of Emily's dolls bed!


New stuff:

The idea for this chap's been kicking around since Uni & basically stemmed from a reoccurring nightmare I used to get of some kind of thing scuttering around under the barriers/ tech pits at either side of the lecture theatre.....
















Next chap's just a portrait. Thought I'd try a quick (20 min) sculpt - without ref material.


Anatomy's still a bit rough but am quite pleased with the characterisation. Need to refine and add a lot of detail still.































Finally,


Clearing the loft the other day, I came across a maquette I made when I was about 17. Anatomy's awful (what anatomy?!) but again - quite like the concept. Might revamp this one with a 2008 makeover.

Very Old

Been tinkering around with Zbrush lately & thought I'd try mock up a few characters from a very old sketchbook. The original drawings were produced during the mid nineties, the clay sculpt approx 4 years ago.
