A Little Bit Bunny

I have been asked to contribute to the A Little Bit Bunny Blog, here - http://alittlebitbunny.blogspot.com/
Which is fabulous, and I'm really looking forward to it.

The blog is run by an impressive bunch of chaps - Damon O'Keefe, Eric Barclay, Chris Kennett, Matt Dawson, Kev Levell, froggie, Mr Toodle, Matt Soffe, and is themed to a different animal each month.
There's been some really good stuff posted, so I'm really chuffed to be invited to contribute.

I've been a bit slow off the mark, so am only just posting my first entry for October now.
But you can find it here, and it's for the theme of Dragons.

Do pop over and have a look.

Website Update

Right, I've finally managed to update my website with some new work.
There's a bunch of stuff you might like to have a look at.
Here's a link to it

There are two pictures of Gorgonzola the Witch (Black & White, bottom half of front page) featuring Huddleston, ironing, and her friend Alison. So you can see how the sketches from the previous posts match up to the finished illustrations.
(Actually, my final drawings are often a refined version of a sketch, if I'm more or less happy with it, as I tend to just knock the opacity down and draw over it in photoshop, kind of like a lightbox - bit of info on my technique there - so you might spot a few similarities)

There's a picture from my book idea The Shirt Machine (also Black & White)

And the colour stuff features Elephants and Tigers, and a couple of Bears.
Here are some sketches working out little elephant - Small, and the big, old elephants, and the Tiger.
So you can do the same as with Gorgonzola, and spot the bits where I used them.

Gorgonzola Again

A bit more info on Gorgonzola the Witch.
I'm going to get a couple of pictures of her up on my website soon, hopefully start of next week.
But before that, here's a sketch of her faithful pet dragon Huddleston.
He was tamed via the power of peanut butter sandwiches.
