This is obviously inspired by Eric Carl's wonderful book.

This was inspired by Oliver Jeffer's cover of his new book "The Way Back Home". I'm a big fan of Oliver Jeffers.

For no reason, Superman appears

Drew the buildings first, then it just seemed to need Superman.

The chicken wasn't impressed.

Extras

Busy on my Masters Project, but here are some images done sneakily on the side:


The image above is partly inspired by a friend who found out terrible things that happen to people (mostly locals, not tourists) in the Maldives

An octopus for Gabriel.

Where is this going? If anywhere...

Gruff overload

Since the last intrepid adventure, our hero has been to tackle the yoga monster after his hard-drive side kick had spluttered to a stop after emitting an alarming noise. He returns with an almost identical first picture (but no sky, did you notice? My, what imagination this guy has!) and a 'sparse' second picture. Call the president.

(edit: Added three more mouth watering images, yeehawww)

Billy Goats Gruff version 3 the spaghetti western

This is a mix of charcoal pen and then Illustrator for the colours. Billy goats is now a Western... sort of. I think I prefer the lines of the previous version, but this has more life to it. The next thing to do is find a way to combine the best elements of both somehow. Dash garn it.

Genius

It all turns up at once:

There is this incredible animation
and I found that because my uncle had told me about this amazing short film which was nominated for an Oscar, have a look at the trailer.
I've also found Anime Studio which I'm playing with before the trial runs out...

Billy Goats Gruff version 2

Another go at Billy goats gruff. I did the whole sequence, but the writing wasn't all that good. Here is another go using rhyme. I've also redone the goat a bit. Each Gruff will be different eventually.

And this is the same image with overlayed textures and other fancyshmancy.

Which is 'better'...
