Thanks Turnip!

Apologies for the lack of updates everyone ... should have some new stuff soon as have just finished illustrating a book

[The7Artist7]

There is a story behind this but works perfectly well on it's own ;P

YOUR SB is sooooooooo much fun, do you always use photoshop.
I wanted to start photos, I usually use flash it's so easy to use, draw with!
The mugs are so cool too, and the chicken pulling out the worm and the
DINOSAURS playing love his hand gesture. I forgot how cool your sb is!

[The7Artist7]

Hey Iven!! I have been meaning to reply for a while but life is keeping me so busy!

I almost always use Adobe Illustrator for my artwork - I think you would enjoy using it once you got the hang of it and find much better control of your brush strokes - the same with Photoshop - why not use all three! (Flash, Illustrator &Photoshop) spend some time getting used to them and you will find they all have their own strengths

Thank you so much for the very kind words and taking the time to post!

Finally here are a few photos of the book I was commissioned to illustrate! 'Thrive: Surviving in a Corporate Jungle' By Mark Barnes
A humorous look at the 'Animals' that populate the corporate jungle and a guide to survival if you venture in.





You can find it on Amazon here:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0992933609

it is available on Kindle etc but it really is so much cooler in printed form! Paperback with a matte finish

Also I seized a creative moment to sketch Spidey - wow it's been a while!

Enjoy!

[iven]

I am glad I found you way back in my sketchbook, wow did you
publish a book congrats on that, thank you for your advice! Some how
I REALLY stick with flash, I work a lot with the onionskin,....I hope
you swing by again that I don't need to skip so far back

Amazing stuff here buddy !!

Ps.: Subscribed to your youtube channel, how to you record your self in time laps?!

[Rhubix]

Congrats on the publication, they look fantastic!
I guess you're right, I'm not the only one slacking on the updates! haha!
We'll both have to get on that!

[The7Artist7]

Thanks Rhub! Was a really great project to work on

Haha yep! So here's a quick scribble - have been using the rubber tipped nibs in my intuos for years now .. time to replace the one I've been using so popped in a standard nib for a laugh ... whoa it feels so zippy and uncontrolled now and makes tip tap noises... well no harm in giving it a go for a bit!

Spidey illustration rough for a friend's birthday prezzie

What program did you use for #548,.....

[The7Artist7]

Hey Iven

For #548 (the Dalek 'exterminating' bubbles!) I used Adobe Illustrator

Violent ninja grass shredding bee!



And Spidey says Yo! (From a recent lil commission for a friend)

I really like the stickfigures, hope to see you around my sb again, I really like the
spiderman !

[The7Artist7]

Oh wow... just checked back though my SB and looks like almost all images posted until a few pages back no longer show/exist ... depressing!

But to cheer things up here is a quick doodle of an elephant in my room...

[The7Artist7]

Ok time for a super cool post!!

Does anyone want to help my designs become the style for a new mountain bike brand??

Simply go to this link and vote for your favourites (mine are the ones with number 4) ... it seems you can vote once a day as well so feel free
The pics of my designs are a bit blurry right now so I've attached a better quality version of each bike type so you can see the details!

For anyone looking for a great quality pose reference manikin - I've supported this indiegogo campaign which is almost exactly what I've been hoping for and gunning for in my 'possible super-articulated pose ref manikin' thread (see links at bottom of my posts)

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/s...y-art-design#/

It's taken them a long time to perfect the moulds etc but they are working hard and getting close now it seems - not the cheapest but hardly the most expensive either!

Hope everyone is doing well, I'm keeping busy but not really doing much sketching or 'art for fun' these days... something I keep telling myself I must get back to!!

Stay cool and rock on!
