Been itching todo some painting for a while now, and as the misses was away on her hen do I decided to give the wee Star Wars freak a little present, plus we had a big ass space to fill in our lounge #starwars #painting #fanartdoneright #acrylic #stormtropper

Spotted this lovely pic over on the @anyforty feed the winning designs from the Pride refix comp are in, looking damn good and ready to ship. Looks like you can get all three for the price of two with their promotion at the moment go check it out, I can't wait to see mine in the flesh it looks like it's printed just right #anyforty #anyfortyfamily #artisourweapon

Monday minding bad leprechaun! Fruits of yesterday's drawing, really like using multiple drawings for shading and effects, can never quite get them right digitally #inking #handbeforemouse #oldschool #illustrator #badleprechaun

Bit of Sunday night stippling for a shading experiment #illustrator #inking #stipple #badleprechaun

[bad-leprechaun-art]

Have been having a play with mixing a scanned layer of brushwork and another of stippling, then using photoshop colour the line work and use vectors for some solid flat container areas, like this one so far, like how light it feels without a thick outline. What do you think? #experiment #illustration #practice
