Sneaky Peeks #1!

I've got a stupid amount of work on at the moment and thought I'd do a few sneaky peek updates to show you what I'm working on! I have two projects going that involve designing mobile phone cases (mainly iPhones but hopefully different formats too in the future). It's pretty fun and we'll see where it leads!

Greetings Cards!

Finally! I got around to packaging the greetings cards I had printed umpteen weeks ago! I will be selling the first batch at BICS (and hopefully the MCM Expo depending on how many sell). There are ten designs to start with:

I'm quite pleased with how the range looks all together as I've only seen them on screen and haven't really printed them as of yet. They are all A6 in size with blank innards. Each card also comes with a few stickers and a "stamp" for the envelope!

My logo adorns the back of the card! Each card will be £2 and after the madness of the cons dies down, I'll be selling them through my site. I do intend to add more designs to later print runs; I just figured I would go with more marketable designs for the time being and see how they go.

Pimp Thyself!

This last couple of weeks, I feel like I've barely done any work, purely because I've been getting stuff printed and sorted for all the upcoming cons I've got on after my trip to New York. Hopefully though, this can still be seen as work! I thought I'd just show a couple of the things I've had printed that will be made into what I like to call Pimp Packs to hand out to peeps at the New York Con. I may not be selling stuff, but I can still spread my head-cheese around a bit!

First off is a nifty little print adorned with what I've come to see as my "brand" charaters. I love these little doods as they make great stickers and just seem to tie all my work up and hopefully give people an idea of what they can expect from my portfolio. I'll be doing something similar to this but a lot cooler and much more inventive when I finally start sending stuff out to publishers!

Also to add to my Pimp Packs are two business cards; one for my sites and one for my shop. I figured that making a card purely for my online shop would be better than just handing out cards for my website as it saves people going through everywhere else to find it. They're not amazing, but hopefully they'll get people looking! (Apologies for the bad photos! :P)

Mug Designs!

I like tea quite a bit; I'm also partial to a few cups of coffee a day and have two special mugs, one for each beverage (very sad.) After supping my x-teenth cup of tea the other day I thought I'd have a go and get some mugs printed. Here are a few designs I scribbled in my sketchbook! They're very rough and the colour was just to make them look less boring, but you get the idea! :P

Any opinions on what designs work best? I will no doubt be drawing some more but thought I'd get the feelers on what people might like. Let me know your thoughts and hopefully I can get some one's future favourite cup made up!

Ghost products/appliances

I don't know why, but I've had a weird thing lately of drawing ghosts in appliances or as products. It shouldn't be as addictive as it is...
