Christmas is coming...(yes I know its still October)

Well I finally finished this years Christmas Card, it odd listening to carols mid October to get in the mood and threw me off for a little while but I think it was worth it, really like how it came out!

Here is the set of all four cards that are available at my Zazzle Store

And some sketches :)

21st March

Seem to have alternated between very productive days, and less so productive days, going to introduce Sophs to a friends dog this evening. Hopefully everything will go well, then will be another intro with a greyhound after that and she will be ready for meeting a new dog this summer if all goes well. Though shes not too pleased at the moment as she has a little ear infection which means i have to put ear drops in 3 times a day. I've started sneaking up on her when she is sleeping...she has started to suspect me I think.

Artwise:

Some doodles - LOOK! PEOPLE! Ok so they arent great but its a start...

Dragon Rex, I love dinosaurs. Jurassic Park is still one of the best films EVAR!

Annnnd a 50 minute speedpaint that i'm really rather proud of. Came out well.

And a silly doodle to make my sister follow me on Tumblr

15th of March

Sorry for the lack of updates, just not really had anything interesting to post, but now i do. Aint that nifty :D

So here are some character silhouettes and progress on them, the first colour one didn't really work, it ended up looking very stiff, the second one worked out much better.

So me and my partner are hoping to get a dog later this year and we have about settled on a greyhound (or similar) type dog for many reasons and as we are fairly sure we don't want a puppy we've been half browsing rescue sites and such. Anyway I got the chance to meet to gorgeous greyhounds Ellie (white) and Milo (Black) and take them for a little walk. They were so calm and well mannered, no jumping or barking even when we walked in and their food was being prepared and then they just slept and accepted petting.

So here they are:

Then i found a new pencil photoshop brush which i do rather like, I needed to tweak it a little but now i love it. I found it here 50 free PS Brushes
