Concept sketches

I've been working on the design for Theseus's armour first, as I love hard-surface design. Below are some sketches to get things going. I find my Pentel Brushpen is great for loose working; if you work small you can generate ideas quickly, and happy accidents abound. I then scan them and draw into them in Photoshop. Proportions are a bit off, but at this stage I'm more interested in finding a design direction.

  

 

Minotaur 2150

Another project I did at the Putney School of Art and Design. I wrote the story from scratch, having some fun with the classic Minotaur legend. I've given it a futuristic spin, setting it on the Moon in the year 2150. This time I drew it as a series of story 'beats', telling the tale through the key moments. Here are a selection.

National Poetry Week illustration

A quick illustration for the Putney Book Illustration course, to mark National Poetry Week. I took my inspiration from a poem about the roar of the furnaces at Battersea Power Station.
