Smugglers’ Wisdom

Another homage to one of my favourite characters.
A sequel to this and is part of the Summer Sequels 5 challenge.

Gentlemen’s Gaming Attire

When bowling, one must always don the correct attire. For the Threadless loves clever challenge. Gentlemen’s Gaming Attire

“OoO”

Ever notice how ghosts look like speech bubbles? Scoring now at Threadless for the Threadless Loves Clever Challenge. Spoooky

Gloombox

I used to love my boombox, it sounded great and did loads of things.

Looking at them now, they look like some alien creature, nowhere as simple and refined as mp3 players. This guy is all raved out and discarded.

Beyond The Sea

I got a new graphics tablet and wanted to draw something. Some religious beliefs say that when you die and cross to the other side, you get judged on your actions in life. Instead of being in the sky, I thought that maybe we get judged at the bottom of a vast ocean. This guy is the judge. Also, the song gives me the creeps!

Lifesaver?

For a Dangers of the Deep Challenge.

When I think about Dangers of the Deep it always makes me think about films like Jaws, which are so good at creating a feeling of suspense. So that’s what I was thinking about when making this. You can make your own mind up on what is happening here, have the people been pulled under by a shark or a giant squid? Did they jump off their boat to escape a psycho? Are they just about to come above water, gasping for air?

How Low Can You Go

Inspired by a certain videogame. When in Limbo, LIMBO!

Flatpack Firestarter

That one guy who first discovered fire made some big money selling his idea to millions of other cavemen. Üggea was born.

Penrose Triforce

Inspired by the famous optical illusion, power, courage and wisdom.

Vibrant Viper

If snakes were this bright, they wouldn’t sneak up on us. Also, they probably taste great too.

Vintage Eyewear

When I was a kid I used to real really old comics, my friends older brother used to collect all old Marvel Comics. I used to love reading them, and seeing all the adverts. As a Brit all this stuff seemed really exotic to me, American Candy, Toys and the weirdest things you could send for like sea monkeys, spy cameras, giant balloons, hypnotic coins and of course X Ray Specs. I always thought “when I’m older and get a job, I’m going to buy this cool stuff. I never did.

As I grew older I realised a guy who used x-ray glasses to look at girls and a hypno coin to get them interested isn’t someone I wanted to be! (I also heard that x-ray glasses didn’t work!)

8 Bit Colorwheel

A design for a Retro Themed challenge. Remember how old computer games had really limited colour palettes?
