I'm flattered.

One of my childhood friends decided to pimp up his studio in Canada with one of my prints making me feel very flattered about it. If it’s ok for me to say, I think it looks really cool :D

My knight

Started off as a lazy sketch on Saturday and well…now is editorial material.

Pride & Heritage

After I got a few emails from people asking me about this character’s tattoos and how they related to the story I felt like like doing another shot where his tatts can be appreciated.

So far the only tattoos with relevant information to the story are the one on his chest which is from the clan he first belonged to and the one on his left arm are all related to the infantry wing he fights with. His hands say wild and gold, which are crucial to the struggle of his people.

Let me know what you guys think and keep the questions and emails coming :D

It's not Christmas yet!

Well, I decided to do a very dark and noir shot but it all ended up looking very christmassy ha ha…the snow, the Santa Claus lookalike…oh well , I still like it , and in my head he is still a tough snow warrior with his fox pet companion.

promo poster Golden campaign.

Today I felt like doing a poster to promote the graphic novel I’m working on. This poster has been done with the style of the inside pages of the novel. Hope you all like it

Golden Campaign GN is on the works again.

A little preview of what I’ve been working on. after finishing the animated ident I went straight into my graphic novel as I always wanted to keep on working on it and had loads of lovely people emailing me about it.

I've been pretty busy with work at the agency directing an ident so I decided to show some of my sketches as I haven't posted anything in a while. I haven't been slacking! I can say that much. I'm also working on new pages for my project with the secret collective.

MY ILLUSTRATIONS AND PANELS ON THE BBC!

MY ILLUSTRATIONS AND PANELS ON THE BBC! All pulled together with Kenny’s amazing performance and everyone’s hard work to get the rememberers on the go.

for the republic!

Hey, its been a while since I’ve done any fan art, so last night I felt inspired and did a bit of republic comandos. I like star wars and know my Jedis from my Siths but Im not an absolute expert, so if there are any mistakes in this , please bare in mind is my own version of what could be an encouraging republic poster. Thank you

The rememberers press night.

Finally! after months of hard work and planing, the press night and official launch of “The rememberers” Graphic novel / show was yesterday 7th of february, and it was really exciting to see the same characters I designed on stage and seeing all the props and propaganda posters from my saturday nights in front of my sketchbook. Kenny Baraka delivered a remarkable and outstanding performance which had me at the edge of my seat throughout the entire show. I was actually rooting for the main characters to win and defeat the evil corporation!

At the end we were given the a6 books with the background story of the main character with some beautiful words from Mr Baraka himself and my illustrations.

if you want to have a peek at some of the illustrations used in the show check mydeviantart account and I promise I will post some of them on my website soon!
