Pyramid Scheming

Had a bit of a storyboard gig for a rum brand and whilst, obviously, it's a work in progress, thought I'd share this unused frame.

Definitely want to visit Guatemala and the pyramids one day. Heard a lot of 'this is Sparta', Kano-heart-stealing ish went on with those high priests.

Anywho, check it, little sketchy scampy scamp:

It's been a shitty few days. Nothing that can't be overcome I guess. Just a lot of hemorrhaging and misdirection and dealing with quitters. But on the plus side, I made this sketch. Well, making. Tentacle porn.  Nah, although tentacles are present. Think I'll make it part of the TAP t-shirt design. Will update when I've added some lines and colour.

Inspired mainly by the fantasy artwork you find gracing the cover of Conan back in the day. Oh, and did you guys know Conan is back at Marvel come next year?! Pretty awesome news. But we digress.

Who know repetitively drawing those suction cups would be so tasking. But that's where I am at currently. And if my ass would stop getting distracted I'd have probably finished already. But I am currently battling the YouTube wormhole and dealing with adult disappointment. Whoa is me. Nah, I'm alright. Thanks for asking.

Til then...

"Tim" Character Design

A small change in pace, doing a short, quirky animation experiment with more vector-styled artwork. A lot more tedious than it looks, my hats off to the guys who do it daily. Whether 2D or 3D, animation is animation. And it is all time consuming. Let me know what you think of "Tim":

Also did a little redheaded girl. See a glimpse of her on instagram: http://instagram.com/p/lVIZeqiS1n/

Ones N Twos Poster Art

Ones N Twos, the online comedy series created by N22 Films, Flavourmag and End Films, launches on YouTube.com/OnesNTwosTV this week. Besides helping out on the intro, also managed to get some poster art done. Keeping with the intro theme of images appearing in the labels of vinyl records, I created a poster image that has all info. on the label. Check it out:

Sum up,
Still considering.

ATR Illustration 'BF Slave'.

Check out the digital inking of an image I did. Building and I may just pull this off if I concentrate. Really hard.

Rrrrr. *concentration face*

Angels

Touched down to earth and created the Nephelim. Super intergalactic supernatural, angel/human crossbreeding. Bit o' Bible/Hebrew knowledge for you. Look it up. I think Shaq is a descendant of one. In any case, been busy doing elements for a music video and thought I'd might as well share it:

Doing the body in parts, I overlayed the original penciling just to show the starting point. Anywho, back to the grind.

Castle of Glass: Fissure King #castleofglassdesign #fissureking

Hello gang! Check out this cool image I did for the awesome titanic competition hosted by Talenthouse and the infamous Linkin Park to celebrate their release of the single Castle of Glass. 'Fissure King' is a semblance of power and weakness, almost like being a king without subjects. But what do you think. Listen to the track on Spotify and see if the image conjures the same emotion as the song:

Brand Level Up maybe?

Recently had the opportunity to produce some artwork and story art for a promo for a reknowned sports brand which was quite cool to say the least. The top tiers seemed to like it, particularly my clairvoyant draughtsmanship of the protagonist whom I did not see before I drew him. Here is a quick image that didn't make the final cut.

That aside. MOQ is on hold (I told you all I shot it in February, right?) as I am doing some lip sync for a tutorial video that really may as well be that thing... you know, like supposed we as humans had a thing or action that could 'short circuit' us. Like, example, we say a phrase like "What do you mean the horse blurs your vision" that triggers an aneurysm in your brain. Maybe lip sync will be that for me. Who knows.

Sum up,
Death Note. Wo, Light is such a punk.

'Dorm Room' Concept Art

Did a recent  art render for @PalermoFilm , just something simple to help keep the wheels greased and all that. Check it out superfriends!:

It's ok, but to be fair, my dorm room was a lot more cluttered than this.

Sum up,
I am also updating the sandjfoods.co.uk website. More on that in the new year!

All that lovely colour. Christmas is almost here, and more importantly, the 21st of December. Bad if you believe in all that Mayan stuff. Good if you have been tuning into www.lazarusrisingfilm.com

Sum up,

No one in the circle to trust. Thats why I know I'll survive the Zombie apocalypse.

Candy asked me to design another album cover for her, I think its an EP, LP cant remember. So I put my hand to pixel and managed to come up with something decent. She liked it, and you can hear and see it all on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/fair-weather-friends-single/id566564430

Why, sir, I do think you are progressing.

Check it out goons, some more artwork I did for a feature currently in pre-production. Fingers crossed and all that.

Currently trying to get a few promo pieces for Lazarus Rising together, and, as if by magic, all the requests for poster design, art, animation and everything creative come out of no where. Never the beneficial requests either. But hey I am the champ, where would I be if I didn't punch a few bobo dolls out once in a while, right? Smh.

Sum up,

Time burglars.

Some more artwork I did for a feature. Image above is the draft version. Final render has no snow topped mountains and has trees in the immediate foreground.

Gone are the days of opium. Now it's all designer this, and synthetic that. Our WW2 vets would be ashamed.

Sum up,
I see you. Chalk up one to the deusche in the corner.

Chick on a Rusty Bridge

Title sounds like a Country music hit. But no. Chick in 5th Element-style gear, some quick concept art for michaelmensah.com. For a experimental music video. Woopdidoo.

Still doing a bit of designing. Plus meeting the director of that Stefano music video I did some animation for to discuss boards for a feature come Monday. Let's hope I have enough change for the train. Lol. Ah poor.

Sum up,
Tired. My back and legs ache. Smh.

Lazarus Rising Concept Art

Check out some of the artwork i did for Lazarus Rising, a short zombie/war film I am working on. Currently in preproduction I am still working on it and hopefully it will take off in the right way:

Blue lights in public bathrooms are to deter junkies; prevents them from finding their veins. And for the life of me I cannot remember where I learnt that from.
