Super Saturday Round Up 2- Fashion and War!

Oh dear am I busy. So busy that... a) I haven't got to the cinema this week which is reaaaaaally depressing considering we have Borne, Expendables, Brave and Total Recall coming soon and on the 'to see' list. b) It's 11.46 pm, meaning that I have 14 mins to complete this post, to be able to call it 'Super Saturday' and not 'Sexy Sunday.' So what have I been getting up to this week? Well I made my return to competition with the Aliens battle that I've been building up for the last week and you can check out here- aliens fight Apart from that I've been pretty much concentrating on my current Web Design job, which is really taking it out of me. This week I've made about 10 homepage versions, a disgusting amount of search results pages, advanced searches..... I'm knackered lol I was also offered another web design job, this time on a fashion/make up website-  http://www.ashleymorhej.com/  but I've had so little time that I h

Aliens Summer Smash Round 1

My opponent Dany2069 and I were given the movie 'Aliens' and told to go nuts and just produce any kind of related art. Could be a poster, tonal study, favourite moment, just anything. Time was not on my side this week though with my Web Design job and weeping over my failed haircut taking up alot of time. I did however quickly churn this out. This of course is a teaser poster for a movie that doesn't exist. I tried to make the idea as simple as possible, giving you a clear idea of what the movie would be about etc. If I had time, I would maybe go back and fix the horrible anatomy but hey I'm happy enough for a few hours. Here's what Dan the man through up He's definitely nailed the essence and tone of the Alien franchise m

Firestar- Special Daily Sketch Challenge

I haven't done a Daily Sketch Challenge on Outcast in adages- months I think. For those of you not in the know, the DSC is a daily....er sketch challenge, posted on Outcast Studios. A character will be posted and everyone has to draw him or her, using any means necessary, within about half an hour. The idea is to get us all drawing every day and improve quicker. I always check to see what the DSC is and (usually due to having no free time) what I'm missing. But even though I'm busier than George Michael's legal team, yesterday the DSC caught my eye and I just had to. Firestar She's a Marvel hero and basically a girl Human Torch. You may remember her from the TV show Spider-man and his Amazing Friends, where she starred with Spidey and Iceman. Why did she make me do the DSC even though I have a ton of other work to do? Because back in November 2010 on the day I joined Outcast Studios, Firestar was the first DSC I ever completed. That day really began m
