I caught a bit of Big Cat Diary" on Animal Planet this morning. Today's episode featured a seven-week-old cheetah cub, called "Toto" whom I simply had to sketch. He was such a wee rock star, with that fluffy mass of downy fur and that bold, devil-may-care attitude. The host of the programme could not stop going on about how precious and tiny Toto was. Really, I can not say as I blame him!
Quick marker sketch. Now, I have company coming round tonight, so I have to go make some samosas at cheetah-speed. Cheerio!

We're sketchy on the details, ma'am
This was a fun one . . . Poster design!
In the story accompanying the Japanese adventure kit, Anna invents a robot specifically progammed to fold origami. The robot works, but goes haywire and winds up folding Obo and Ini into a two-headed paper monster. The kit includes a poster. I looked to a lot of old Godzilla posters for inspiration on this.
CHARACTER DESIGN
THUMBNAILS FOR POSTER DESIGN
POSTER SKETCH
Full colour version's coming soon, of course.
. . . We're supposed to get multiple feet of snow this week-end? Really? Eesh.

Well, my best mate Carlea is home for the hols, and with that comes the tradition of yet another Carlea/Fala collaberation!
So far, our story takes place in the early 1900's in the Louisiana Teche. Zekiel Arcenaux is mourning the recent loss of his twin brother, which leads him to explore the services of a travelling medium named Aveline. This, in turn, leads to a strange journey into the supernatural world within the bayou, to uncover the mysteries surrounding the bizarre death of Zekiel's brother.
Stuff inspired by our writings thus far;
Early character concept sketch for Zekiel . . . Why do I get the feeling I ought to apologise for this . . . ?
Zekiel and his brother, Zemington;
Aveline detects the dark presence of Zem's lingering spirit;
Concept sketches for Zekiel's boat, the Octopus;
Zeke loves hunting the gators. With nowt but a knife and a rock . . . Mmmyap;
After a particularly difficult channeling session, both Aveline and Zeke are feeling worse for the wear.
Aveline ventures into the swamp with the help of a friend;
.
