slowly getting there

this is just a quicky colour job
to get a rough feel for where this
is heading


its been a big process but we have narrowed
down the selection of the fuzzy shore thing
monster to this one..now just gotta get his
movement right and then we can move on..
yay




more ellis concepts



ok i was getting a little trippy with
recent ellis concepts so i decided to strip
it back to its barest..even though this is still
a little freaking trippy

you cant return home..but you can return to monster valley

UPDATE
this image got the thumbs down ..so its
back to the old drawing board

i was asked to do something wild things like
for sony..but i resisted the urge to out right
ripping off so instead i was inspired by the
ending of labyrinth where the toys in her room tell
her " if you ever need us..you know where to find us"
with this in mind i put the boys on a trek
returning to monster valley..a place they may have
played in their youth

monsters monsters everywhere

i have two massive monster jobs at the
moment..one is for fuzzy and required a
lot of concepts till we got the right
one..the other requires lots of monsters..
moral of this story..careful what you
wish for!!

boy oh boy

this still needs more info added but its pushing
more of the french in the french mex for their
upcoming gig promoting the single vinyl release

concepts r us

sony has asked for me to mix illustration
and photography for this Georgia Fair album..
they want a merry band of wild things-esque
monsters following the boys pied piper style
into the woods..
this image is my jumping off point in the
process




the dew process ppl seem to like this rural
trippy-ness so this is the avenue im taking
with ernest ellis





finished stoop and carty

after many revisions..these are whats going to
the printers for both bands..the jack carty tug
boat in space image may be adapted into a sfx
video clip

giant under water monsters

UPDATE
after a meeting the fuzzy team decided
upon a melding of the first pixar like
monster and a bizaare floating head
pencil sketch i had done...this is
a 5 minute colouring job on a sketch
of what they might want









i have a strange history with fuzzy..
having done more posters that never saw
the light of day than ones that did i am
not really getting too excited but part
of me wants to anyway because the event
i have been asked to design for is massive..
i mean mega massive
anyways their idea is to have a large sea monster
that has bondi and the city upon its head...
this is my first attempt at one of the sea monster
concepts i have
