Quits

I'm pretty much calling it quits for this blog, I don't use it any more and I can't really be arsed to keep two separate blogs running, especially since they're exactly the same thing! Go to my other blog "Illustration by Dan Widdowson" to keep up to date on my latest projects :) take care.

social shop assistants colour test


Double page spread, not sure about having a colour scheme for the background or whether I should just keep to realistic colours... But I REALLY don't want to colour every DVD individually!

Social shop assisants WIP


I've been working on this for most of the day so I'll call it quits for today and hopefully get it coloured and finished by the end of tomorrow.

a change of direction


I've given up on my original story book idea since it was depressing me and I've gone back to my original idea of a nice simple comical book listing small things that piss me off - simplicity is the key!
The following is my front cover for the new project.
There are still a few drawings that I didn't post from my failed story that I might upload soon, as well as another from the writers for animals project I'm also doing.

Final unit for the first year





Ok so I've spent a few days researching, writing, sketching, thinking and finally I've started piecing together my final project. These are the first few tests for my little book sort of thing.

Cartoony cunt.



Ok so I've got me an idea for the final project now... well... ANOTHER idea. But I think this one would be more fun so anyway, the cunting picture of me is to do with that, the sheeple one is to do with a term I read on a post in the facebook group "conspiracy theorists say the darndest things". I was so impressed that I had to imagine what sheeple might look like. As the title suggests, I've gone very cartoony at the minute but I think it will work for the project that I have in mind. If not then I'm going to chop off my hands since I'm not creative enough. CHOP CHOP.

Visions of the future part two




These cyborgs were fun to make, and though they weren't actually selected by the tutors (possibly due to the fact that I left early) I still managed to sneak them on to the computer with my USB stick.... mwuahahahaaaaaaarrr!


Visions of the future part one






It's been a long time since I posted anything to my blog since I mostly just upload any work that I do to facebook and sit there patiently waiting for much needed recognition, like the pathetic worm that I am. However, the following week has been all about "visions of the future" at uni, so I felt that I should upload everything I've done for that project to the same place. I'll try to keep on top of this more, since a lot of work has gone un-posted so fingers crossed for the future (not that I would cross my fingers in hope of anything, that's just madness!).

There's a competition that I'm keen to enter... here's what I've got so far. I didn't really want to scan in the other 7 pages of chimp studies that I did! My illustration unit can wait ;)
