Chamone!

Painting of Michael Jackson i did for one of my mates for his birthday. My best acrylic painting so far.

You've been hit by, you've been stuck by...

An illustration i did for one of the weekly challenges on an art forum i post on regularly. The challenge was to take one song, and interperate it with an illustration. I chose Michael Jacksons 'Smooth Criminal'.

Iron Maiden CD cover Illustration

My latest University assignment. It was an independent choice topic, i chose to illustrate the Iron Maiden CD Single '2 Minutes to Midnight'. I brainstormed ideas, developing my own interpretation of the song and cover. It is very different to the original, but i feel i stayed true to the Iron Maiden spirit! Cheers for looking!

Storybook Cover

Story book cover i did for a university assignment. The story was Little Red Riding Hood.

Italian Spiderman

A quick speed paint of one of the characters from the hit youtube series 'Italian Spiderman'. Took me about a solid 1.5 - 2 hours. I think i learn't some valuable techniques for colour mixing in photoshop.

Hey fellas. A portrait i did for Uni. We where each given a random letter of the alphabet and had to choose a celebrity whos either first or last name started with that letter. I ended up with 'C' so i chose to do Conan O'Brien (i'm probably his biggest Australian fan!). We where given the choice of whatever medium we wished to use. I decided to give my photoshop techniques a test run. I think it turned out pretty well.

So you want to be an Illustrator? Yes i do!

Hey guys. Thanks for stopping by. I have created this blog in the hope that i can score some handy advice in developing my work so that i can become a better Illustrator. I found last year that a lot of my style was too much related on manga and this has proven to be a weakness in much of my work. Thanks for taking the time to stop by. Catchas arounds!
