It's been a while!

And so I have returned to blogger! I know its been a while but I have just started a new job! However, I have been up to my old tricks with cat related designs, and I have a new little inspiration in the form of my beautiful cat Thiago. This is an illustration I have been working on of him! Trying to come up with a story for him too as he is quite a character!

Some more 3D work

Photoreal 3D

I have been trying to up date my photoreal work of late. Here is a pretty chandelier that I modelled, shaded and lit in Maya. Made some nice glass and metal textures too! Il be keeping those in my library!

Pretty things

I bought a mug the other day and I have become fascinated by the designs. It used fabric textures within the  images so I thought I would experiment with it! Seemed like a nice idea for a birthday card. Here are some duckies....

Other things of late

Continuing with my illustrator work, I have been experimenting with different ideas and concepts. I have also tried some more illustration techniques with bunny and tree. Here are some of my latest bits and bobs.

Mr Whiskerton questions you....

Bunny and tree

James Alternative sketches

This was another design I had for James that I have just manipulated in illustrator and photoshop.

Nigel and James in Illustrator

I have just worked up the Nigel and James drawings in illustrator then coloured them in photoshop. I was experimenting with shading, I didn't want too much as I intended the drawings to be quite simple and naive.

This is Nigel....

And this is James looking rather scared...
