Of Koalas and Sharks

 In an effort to at least try and update this thing in less than a year at a time, thought I'd upload some recent work. The past couple of months have seen me leaving my last job due to the contract coming to an end and acquiring a new one (lucky for me considering the unemployment rate for people my age).

One of the things I will not forget is my "coping mechanism", PPI Shark

 This new job has allowed me to have more time to be creative and have some time to think, the fact that it pays better than the last job is a big plus.

While I left my PPI job thinking I wouldn't have any more animals to worry about, the first day at the new job was to prove me wrong.

Some work frustration being exorcised through the drawing of a mini storyboard and some humour

 Random images drawn on post-its during my downtime at work.

Having more time to watch Adventure Time has allowed to me to practice drawing the characters more.

 

After seeing this image felt the need to make my own versions of the "Big Three" of the Avengers

While Iron Man n Cap weren't much of a stretch for there designs, I've never seen a short haired version of Thor.

Another attempt showing the other members of the modern roster

 Character sketches for a failed attempt at contributing to the Star Wars Uncut project 

(Empire Strikes Back)

Some female form practice doodles

Character concepts

 Despite the lack of content on this blog overall, I have built a sizable backlog of drawings that I continually attempt to make some progress on.  Many of them were drawn at the time certain movies had been released, case in point the below images.

WIP of Picnic on LV-426 with David and the Xenomorphs (Prometheus parody)

Amazing Spiderman review sketches showing just some of my gripes with the movie (Girlfriend was not one of them :D)

Jean Val Jean & Javert from the New Les Miserables

 Went to see Les Miserables last weekend and can say definitely enjoyed it, had to resist the urged to sing along to the songs that I know :). While I am partial to a lot of the original recordings , I do like the newer, more grandiose orchestra themes of the new one.
