Pets again, sorry (not sorry).

I'm thankful to all who hired me. I enjoy it and they're pretty nice and straight forward: I get photo, I return drawing. bish bash bosh. 

Photos I get are usually low-res, sometimes a couch or chair leg might be obscuring the animal, which if not too obstructing can be removed by me. Sometimes the lighting is poor, sometimes a background too distracting. My job therefore is to use that imperfect spur-of-the-moment photo, remove the background (though not necessarily) and turn it into something more permanent, more focused. Pretentious diatribe over, just look at the friggin' dogs.

Let's burn rubber!: GT Radial Tyres concept sketches

Last year, I helped Manchester-based Creative Agency "Contrast Creative" visualise a tyre ad.

Here is the main site... http://www.contrastcreative.co.uk/

....I thought it was time to share these with you.



Sketches like this were added to a simple template provided by
Contrast Creative before approval.


Once approved, I coloured my sketches digitally,
added a couple of gradients and tweaks. Contrast
Creative then added them to a more accurate template
complete with slogan and in the case of the above
example, a more exaggerated blur effect.
