Heya, Josh! I really like this one. Lovely atmosphere

Did you make a book of your childrens illustrations and/pr plan on selling them?

Great to see some drawings from you, Badgereydoo, and I shall see you in Oxford!

Your powers at rendering have grown 10 fold. I am amazed by that character line up you have in the first dump. Sweet, sweet pencil skills. Keep making our jaws drop, sir.

Miss B and Magic Fran, pop over to Lefran's sketchbook and check out her awesome book.

Did some speedy marker stuff. Started each with a thumbnail at the top and had a go at creating a narrative, a lot of fun, going to have to do more.

Thanks. I think that'll do for now

**Mr Man** · August 11th, 2008, 11:51 AM

Ah ha! Good to see you putting characters into more of a context on the last image. Do more!

**lefran** · August 11th, 2008, 12:35 PM

ooo cool update, and thanks for the advertising

**fractured1** · August 11th, 2008, 02:33 PM

Oh man! I absolutely looove the subtle colors you have going on in your work.
Le Sigh... I wish I could get my colors to come out like that. Somehow I always seem to overcook it. *nods head* Fabulous stuff. Looking forward to seeing more.

**Molly** · August 11th, 2008, 05:16 PM

...Josh - the gouache studies are just, lovely! Not having a wacom pen has been a kinda blessing in a way, forcing you to paint traditionally....

Keep at it!

TMx

**DannySketch** · August 13th, 2008, 05:46 PM

fantastic idea with the storyboard type exercises good man, bravo. Those gouache (pronounce how you will) paintings are very nice, but i told you that already.

**flatliner** · August 14th, 2008, 09:38 AM

flatliner Thanks for dropping by! hope stuff is well with you, where are you studying?

Erm...

I did some super quick thumbs, then blew them up to paint on. All a bit static and obvious. But you have to start somewhere.

And some Ink warmups as filler

I'll try have more 'proper work' next time

**DannySketch** · August 21st, 2008, 12:52 PM

**flatliner** · August 25th, 2008, 01:16 PM

Heya, nice update like the characters, especially the second one down. I'm studying at 'Anglia Ruskin University'. A little known uni in Cambridge. Its been good, scaringly I'm gonna be going into my 3rd and final year shortly.

How about you, what you been up to?

**Johann de Venecia** · August 26th, 2008, 09:11 PM

Is that your new mascot? The Badger? Is that you posing for the ref with mechanical arms and striped scarfage? If so, I demand pictures!

Oh and the ink 'filler' is my fave of the bunch. Keep 'em coming!

**Kfeeras** · August 26th, 2008, 09:23 PM
