Here we are in 2014 and I’m desperately looking around for something to replace my festive doodle - what with it being twelfth night ‘n all. This popped up – the old Jim picture that got put on one side last July. Still a work in progress . . .
It’s been a while since the last post, too long, just time for a quick festive picture based on a Beard man doodle.

In a nutshell: Design your ultimate hero. Get your design printed as a 3D model. You paint the model. Someone picks a winner. Everyone plays Top Trumps!
A friend of mine turned 40 recently so I thought I’d have a go at making a caricature model of him. Started with some exaggerated sketching and unflattering painting in photoshop…
… and then moved on to a sculpt. Can’t say there’s a fantastic likeness, but this was a far as I’d got by the time I’d reached the deadline I’d set myself, i.e. his birthday.
There’s a lot more to the Jim model besides the head, but all that needs tidying up before posting at a later date.
The skeleton from previous posts, posed and slightly dressed. Now I need to make an environment for him to stand in…
I’m a bit out of practice with the Russian dolls, but working on a couple at the moment - while they’re coming along I thought I’d throw up some pics from an exhibition I was chuffed to be involved with last October.

I was one of eight contributing artists. Many thanks to those concerned for letting me be involved!
I don’t know how long this is viewable, but here’s a possible link to a video from the Manx television website:
