One of my robot illustrations will be appearing on a United Skates skateboard deck very soon. I still need to give him a name though I have no idea, answers on the back of a postcard please! Hopefully some of his friends will be making their way onto some decks soon too.

I have been designing a logo, CD packaging and website for a new up and coming act, MC Danger. Here’s a visual of the CD front cover, will post more images of the packaging and website once they are completed.

I have designed a heck of a lot of skateboards over the years as well as quite a few snowboards, so I have added a portfolio page from which you can view some of my skateboard and snowboard graphics.

I have put examples of my work up in the portfolio section, so please take a look (link over there on the right of the screen). I will try to expand this over time as I have quite a lot of work, just tried to include a mixture of styles/disciplines. Right I’m off to enjoy the sunshine.

Portfolio now uploaded.

There are some projects I work on which make me realise I am quite lucky with what I do. I just have to put up with the constant abuse of being told to shut up and get on with my colouring-in. This week I have been working on a new range of tattoo inspired skateboards, here’s some work in progress. I even listened to some angry music as I worked on them, not sure the rest of the office appreciated that.

First set of concepts.

Some people gamble. Some sniff glue. Some have to salute magpies when they see one. Me? I draw robots. Maybe I’ll seek help one day if it starts to take over my life too much.

Some of my robotic doodles.

Here’s a few characters I have created on my Wacom. I haven’t named any of them yet unfortunately, and ideas on the back of a postcard please. A couple of these might find their way onto a skateboard or snowboard in the not too distant future.
