This here was a recent personal project I did for a splendid band called 'The Ghastly Ones'. I highly recommend that you check them out at some point (if you're not already familiar with them that is!). I started the project with a doodle of the guitarist in my lunch at work and then put the rest of the band together over the afternoon (when I should have been working!!) before working them up in Illustrator at home. They were playing at Tiki Invasion 2 at the time, so I used it as an excuse to put a poster together. I do a lot of my work like this, but the way I form the characters has changed over time.. I think that my drawing style is loosening up and the lines are more flowing, rather than basing everything on geometric shapes (as you'll see from some of my other work). I was really pleased with this in the end, it came together really well.
The only Award Winning Illustrator you've never heard of! That's right folks.. in 2005 I won the International Greetings Award at the New Designers Exhibition in old London Town. I've had work published in magazines all over the globe and I'm still the Invisible Man of the Art World.... But I have a cunning plan to change all that!
I always wanted to be in a Horror Rock Band (but I can't play an instrument to save my life... except on Guitar Hero).. So instead I became the next best thing... a Horror Rock Illustrator!! Oh Yeah... Let's ROCK!!!
