New sketches





Some freshly made new skethes! I'm becoming really quick at sketching! The Scottish Clan Chief's profile was just 10 mins on the tube on my journey home last night! That's animation for youuuu.....
I got really inspired by a tale I heard about last weekend, it's an historical fact about Scottish Clan chiefs and their fellows and how they used to pillage English coaches with Noblemen onboard and steal all the valuables whenever they run out of food supplies in the Clan. 
So I'm developing this character in my spare time between my animation and illustrations jobs cause I wanna do a little animation based on him as soon as I can! = )
The top drawing is my re interpretation of Romeo and Juliet in a cartoony senile version. I had a lot of fun drawing this!! It's based on some personal thoughts and feelings, so I'm definitely gonna turn it into a proper colored illustration soon! More to cooooooome!!!

Galloping Horses


Another shot from the project I am currently working on, for an independent film maker and his feature film's intro. This one was fun to animate!! I haven't animated galloping horses in ages and this was a great chance to challenge myself in it. Bring on the next shot! = )

The Autumn Kiss



A tiny animation I did to be entered to an online Animation Project launched by a London Studio. It's all about one of Autumn's little helpers and what she gets up to to spread the season's vibes around her.
A sweet reverie in the thick of the wood!  
I never had a chance to animate a fox so far in my animation career, and so I thought this would have been a good excuse to do it... That's why I really enjoyed working on this super short by super cute animation, and I love how it turned out. I also did a bit of compositing in After Effects, which I think really added that atmosphere I was after. SUCCESS!! =D

Arab speaking...




Latest shot I just completed from the animation project I am working on at the moment. 
It's always nice to work on a bit of lipsync! This won't be the final voiceover though, just to point it out... The director is gonna take some professional actor to do it. For now this is just the working voiceover. 

Just starting a new shot today, so there'll be a lot more to come. Stay tuned! = )
