My plot can only come visually to life once I’ve nailed these outfit designs – or at least, created a good base that can evolve with the work and plot. I absolutely love this one. I made more iterations of this than any of my others so far, really working it to get an outfitContinue reading “Visual Diary – Cleric, Academic, Bounty Hunter”

Visual Diary – Enchanted Gloves?
What a delight this image was to make. It’s exhilarating getting closer and closer to a point where I can make people see what I see in my head. With this AU, there’s been a big jump in quality, just like I saw over summer with the Jester AU. It needed the vampire AU andContinue reading “Visual Diary – Enchanted Gloves?”
Performance Project – Zine Articles
Below is the content I’ve written and drawn for Niamh, who is directing the zine for the production. AN INTERVIEW WITH THE BIGGEST CATERPILLAR By Sally Silkworm As a senior editor here at Mos-Jito Publications, I never thought I would have an opportunity as rare and lucky as this: to sit down with Mr OrnithopteraContinue reading “Performance Project – Zine Articles”
Performance Project – Poster
Right at the beginning of the project, I made some thumbnails for poster ideas and took some photos using lighting, silhouette and painted newsprint. These are some of the images I took with no filters or editing. For coloured lighting, I set my iPad to max brightness and just showed colour screens of either greenContinue reading “Performance Project – Poster”
Visual Diary – Get Thee Back!
This was a JOY to make. It was a chance to really sit and focus and develop my idea development, if you know what I mean. Taking nothing, making it into something. Someone show Phil Tyler this. I realised at this point that I had this specific cape in mind, so worked from the backContinue reading “Visual Diary – Get Thee Back!”
Visual Diary – KIDNAPPED
I can actually evidence the work I did for this one. The pictures are uploading on drive, so let’s fill this time productively. How was your day? Mine was fine. I had a bath, but I’m worried I overheated the shower unit trying to fill it. It would only be the landlord’s fault for givingContinue reading “Visual Diary – KIDNAPPED”
Visual Diary – Could it be… her?
I have pages of sketches for this, but you’re going to have to take that on trust. Absolutely CHUFFED with this one. The lighting, depth, composition and colour are all things I’m utterly proud of. Not to mention CONTENT: Antonia finds Mitzi lying asleep in the woods. What on earth is a young lady doingContinue reading “Visual Diary – Could it be… her?”
Visual Diary – Th-That’s Cheating!
Check this shit out. This image couldn’t be without the pages of design I showed in the last few days’ work. Note specifically this page, where I get the image down a couple times for composition. One big thing that I noticed was that I changed the size of the brush I used for effect.Continue reading “Visual Diary – Th-That’s Cheating!”
Visual Diary – Lyra Cassiopeia
Heir to the Cassiopeia Throne. Here is the art followed by some of my writing for this, which goes hand-in-hand. The practice is really less illustration and more “I witness my characters doing things in cinematic 4k technicolour in my head and record it any way I know how.” Gideon Clearsky is giving Hamish fromContinue reading “Visual Diary – Lyra Cassiopeia”
Visual Diary – Clothing Design
When I catch myself talking and singing out loud and bouncing around in my chair, that’s when I know I’m giddy with passion. Designing clothes has got me into such a good space recently. I just LOVE the pinterest and google research, and it’s really developing my drawing process. Before, I very often went straightContinue reading “Visual Diary – Clothing Design”
