Bertie Crisp Character Designs.

Here are the some of the character designs from my Grad film 'Bertie Crisp'. 

(These are pages taken from my portfolio)

Toon Boom Boo

I've been trying to teach myself Toon Boom recently. Here is my first attempt at using it, and also animating Boo Cat.

TV Chat show Alien

This is the design, and the suit of 'Zeldaro', an alien who Hosts a chat show called 'Life from Earth'. An NFTS TV creation from students Tim Partridge, and Omar Kenawi.
I was asked to design their alien host from their specifications, and then make the costume with a working blink.

Genie in a Tea Pot

Been playing with Photoshop in my free time. Its nice to actually concentrate on just one drawing, instead of a few hundreds.

Anyway, I decided to colour an old sketch I did of a genie in a teapot, back when I loved to draw monsters. (Not that I don't love to anymore)
