iScot Magazine cover

I painted the cover for this month's iScot Magazine which is on the shelves now! I was asked to paint Andy Murray as a knight in the form of Sir Andrew Moray (1336) replacing the sword with his tennis racquet. This was a really cool job to work on and I look forward to working again with the magazine again soon.

The Football Pink

I was asked to illustrate the cover and interior illustrations for this month's issue of The Football Pink, which celebrates the 25th anniversary of World Cup Itaila 90.

For someone of my age, Italia 90 was the golden age of football to illustrating the likes of Toto Schillaci, Lothar Matthaus, Roger Milla and Gazza, was a dream job. In the magazine, we added some old school graphics to each of the illustrations which added a cool touch. It was also fun to do different style illustrations for each player.

Fingers crossed I will have the opportunity to work on this brilliant magazine again in the future.

Game of Thrones - Season 5 Poster

I'm struggling to contain my excitement for the new season of Game of Thrones so I thought I'd find a form of release in illustrating a poster for it!

This was loads of fun to do! It's always fun doing your dream job, even when you haven't been asked!

You can see a close up detail in my previous post.

Frank Underwood - Where Did It All Go Wrong?

My entry for the #NetflixDownUnder contest ran by Draw With Jazza over on youtube.
The idea was to create an illustration based on an original Netflix character, with an Australian twist!

So I imagined Frank Underwood's (Kevin Spacey) career had taken a nosedive and he was living in Australia, eating Vegemite out the jar.

This was my entry and a little .gif showing my process.

Sherlock - The Reichenbach Fall

Ever since watching the last episode of the first season of Sherlock, I wanted to paint him. It was one of the best episodes of television I have seen in a long time. This is my little mini tribute to that show..
