Faith in People books

Hey guys,
Here are some photos of the printed books I wrote and illustrated for Faith in People, a charity that looks after children with terminal illnesses.I first blogged about it here, and I'm really please with how the end products look, hopefully they'll help the little kids understand stuff they need to :)

Twesta poster: Standard Fare #2

A new poster for the boys at Twesta Promotions for a gig coming up this month.



This one was a bit of a rush job but I think it still turned out pretty good :)
I've done a poster for the band Standard Fare before which you can see here.

Santa's Letters Packs

This is a project I've been working with alongside the designers and other good folk at Northcliffe Media.


I drew the characters, then the designers coloured and vectorised the images. This image above shows some of the millions (OK, not millions, but maybe like, 18!) of items you get in these packs Northcliffe have got printed.




I had to get one of me in there, right? This is my fave item - a self assembly reindeer, ain't he cute??




I've really enjoyed this project, and I like the thought of lots of little kiddles opening their packs on Christmas eve :)


If any of you guys would like to order one, look at the info page on this here Facebook: www.facebook.com/santaschristmasletters

Vicky Park - it really happened!

Feast your eyes on the first 'Vicky Park' weekly comic strip :D
I'm so excited that this is happening, although slightly daunted at the task of coming up with a strip EVERY WEEK. *gulp*


Here's how it looks on the page, it's the very last thing in the Mercury's new weekly supplement: 'More' magazine. I think it fits in really well :)


...allow me a little bit of a celebration?


Fred Leicester

I was commissioned by the Leicester Mercury to do an illustration for their 'Fred Leicester' opinion column. I made up this grumpy-looking man for it, I kinda dig him :)


They flipped the image round to use in the actual paper. I don't think I'll even get used to seeing my stuff the other way around...it just looks strange to me. Everyone that isn't me has told me it still looks fine though!

You can see Fred Leicester in all his grumpy glory every Saturday in the Leicester Mercury.
Yay! ^_^

Jadu characters - the outcome!

Don't any of you say I never give you closure (you ARE always saying that, right?)
Here's what my Jadu characters look like on the final product!



I think it looks pretty damn sweet...
