Character studies

Another book art project is in the pipeline, which should be finished next year.  I've been working on this project slowly and gradually over a long time.  The main design is finally starting to take shape, so I thought that in the meantime I could now start to share some concept drawings for the main characters here:

Expect more updates on this project as we go in to 2016!

New work on the way...

This tiny sketch is a little taster of a big project I'm doing for next year.  It makes for a welcome change from all the black, laser-cut gothic stories I've done previously, however this time the challenge is even more massive...  More photos and images later on will reveal why.

Concept work for new laser cut book

Here's a little taster of a new laser cut book that I'm working on...

The main design of the book is on a huge scroll and has taken weeks of work, off and on.  I think I've just passed the half-way mark... there's now only the finishing of the design, the tracing, scanning, photoshopping, editing and laser cutting to go! 

More images and photos to follow later....
