Illustrated for a magazine fashion article, set of 3 mixed media pieces.

I was starting to get a bit down of being up to my elbows in code working on the FormatPixel project, so I’ve taken sime time out to add this new illustration of a vintage 1977 Star Wars action figure to the Fantastic Plastic collection. (Kind thanks to David for supplying the figures)

1977 Storm Trooper – Illustrated in Flash

This actually took quite a few sittings to finish! I’m considering doing quite a few and expanding the whole Fantastic Plastic set. Plastic’s cool ha ha!

Just finished the publicity for the DICCU Mission. Bit of a change in style with some photo montage-tastic-spray thingy! I got the final poster prints through the post last week and was chuffed with the finished colours.

Oh and in case your wondering, the guy running was myself stressed that I couldn’t find a photo, it was a boiling hot day in a stuffy loft using a camera on timer mode! ha ha!!

This illustration of a Barbie was really tough. I still don’t have an actual doll to do the illustration from, so this one was created from a series of photo’s which I found and have been sent. Trying to understand the dolls shape and structure proved difficult and in the end just drawing lines which went against my gut instinct provided this finished result!

Vintage Barbie – Part 1
Barbie dolls don’t seem as shiny as Actionmen, very Matte! Even though these dolls are meant to represent some sort of “ideal” figure, it’s great how nothing can control the hair!
