Week 13 - The Climax - Gladiator


So again I have faaaailed! I didn't get around to starting this one in time, my apologies guys. I was supposed to be illustrating a bit at the end of Gladiator where Maximus is walking through fields to his wife and son in the afterlife, he's finally re-united with his family.

Week 12- Show & Tell - SEEKER

Hey guys!

Dave and Ellen, I'm very sorry for not submitting for your challenges. Hope you're all well and enjoying your Summers. I've had a weird several weeks of not drawing much, laaaame!

This week I'm going to begin some work on a project I have an idea for that I may take on in a module this year, it's called 'Seeker'. I will tell more soonio.

Take care guys =)

Week 9 - The Relentless Hero


I also haven't finished my image but wanted to post something. It's still a long way off of completion. My intial idea seemed to slip away as I created this image, the hero was supposed to be stumbling along wounded on a battlefield but still continuing the fight until his last breath. I might give this one another shot some time. Take it easy guys =)

Week 8 - Catman Redesign - Sci-fi tech

Hey guys, wicked finals this week! Here's my Sci-fi tech Catman. Yet again, I didn't finish this one. My plan was to have a fully finished piece for this week but I fell short of the bar again, but it was proper fun anyway! Hope you're all having a great Summer.

Week 8 - Catman Redesign - Sci-fi tech

Hey guys! I'm going to re-design Catman with future tech, like a Sci-fi Catman...very cliche I know. I've been researching a few futuristic designs. Hopefully this redesign won't be total cheese! What do you guys think?

Yet again, I fail to produce a finished piece. I must go and bury my head in the sand. Hope you're all having a wicked Summer, keep drawing!

Week 6 - Nintendo! - Link

Hey guys and gal! So I've been struggling this week with trying to draw Samus Aran from Metroid and I've finally given up. I've decided to go back to my original idea of drawing Link because he rocks my socks. This is my rough sketch that I've just knocked up. Happy drawing!

Week 5 - The Hunt - Jungle

I ran out of time! Nooooo! I'm going to have to submit this piece as it is, it still has quite a way to go until it's properly finished. Definite aim of next week is to complete an image...I hope. Nice work guys!

Great work so far guys! Here's the sketch for my submission so far. I've created the whole image on Photoshop and for the first time I've shot my own reference, great fun!

Week 4 -Cover Re-Interpretations - Star Wars Omnibus: At War with The Empire progress

Hey guys! Looking forward to doing this weeks challenge. I got lazy so I'm going to try and pick up the pace again. Anyhew, my favourite book at the mo is The Time Travelers Wife...however I do not find the cover too exciting. I love the covers for the STAR WARS OMNIBUS series so I thought I'd do one of theme. Now I went through a load of theme and they're all very nice but I found that the most iconic and bold one was this one, Vader looking badass as per usual.


Here's what I've got going on so far. I'm trying not to go too far away from the original in terms of composition but I thought I'd change a few of the poses. I'm not keen on how the colours are turning out, lots of work needed. Hope you're all having a wicked weekend :)

Week 2 - Film Poster Redesign- I,Robot


Hey all! This is my design so far! I'm posting this progress so far because I'm heading back to Plym Town tomorrow so I won't get to work on it over the next few days. It's still quite unfinished and needs a far bit of adjusting, any critique would be luuush!

Thanks all! Great work so far =)

Week 1 - So it begins - Time to jump


Here's my submission, it changed so much, it looked nothing like the original idea. Anyhew, the initial idea was that there would be a paratrooper about to jump into a battlefield, this would fit the title 'So it begins'. But that didn't happen! I could have taken this further but quite frankly, I'm lazy!

Great submissions guys! And I like the countdown timer Pete, nice touch!
