Bio: From a young age I would spend most of my time creating my own characters for my comic books. I would be inspired by almost anything, but what inspired me most was Comics, Computer Games, Toys and Movies. Since then I Discovered Photoshop I realised my potential and have been hooked ever since. Now I'm in the process of releasing my own Comic Book.

The aim was to create a image of a time traveller who's visited many different country's at different time periods. I wanted the image to capture the time machine he's riding on about to break down in mid air, also to keeping this image feeling free and whimsical. Just a drawing of my friends dog. This is a illustration of a character I created called King Karp. Created on Photoshop this guy is the king of the ocean and all that lives within it. I focused the design on a strong muscular body type and a stylish but practical armour worthy of a warrior king. Just had a little fun with this character, after going to Africa I was inspired to create a type of half breed man who is geared to survive in the extreme heat through his accessory's and his body. The reason for the huge ears are to expel the heat from his body kinda like an elephant. Portraits of the female face. Just a portrait of a friend, she loves bikes so I thought why not put her on one. It's a classic question what would it be like if we still lived in the time of the dinosaurs. This is the first image I've done completely on a tablet and wanted put the focus of this image on the movement on both the Rex attacking and the Stegosaurus defending the vehicle. A recent picture originally for a cover comp showing a cyborg thief in the future possessing the keys of knowledge, power, and time ( represented by the three pencils). He has just stolen the last key and is about to start his insane bid for world domination using the keys as his weapons. Created in Photoshop CS3 I wanted to design the biggest and baddest boss you could imagine for a game. I chose the element of earth and constructed this guy from rock, interwoven with wood and vines. I wanted to give it the look of a kind of Minotaur (from Jason and the Argonauts) but with a slight twist. A portrait of my cousins pet dog called prince.
