Wouldn't it be nice...

...if every time you bought something like a curry, you got a lovely free gift. Like a baby elephant. All courtesy of Visa. Cue the Benny Hill music.

Overpaid, over-sexed and over here...

I think this board was for the Post Office or a greetings card company - I can't remember which, and there were originally a lot more frames but they got lost. These were a pleasure to do as I was able to enjoy spending some time looking through all my WWII reference files to get the hairstyles and the uniforms right, and I was able to just pop This Happy Breed in the DVD followed by Way To The Stars and lose meself in scribbling. If only all jobs were like that.

Mwaah-Ha-Ha!

A couple of key frames from a Specsavers storyboard. NO reason at all to include these, because they're not that brilliant, but I got the chance to draw a lab based on the one created by Ken Strickfaden for Universal's Frankenstein, and that alone made me do a little bit of a sex-wee .

TimeSplitters Beware!

These were some ad concepts featuring the Sgt Cortez character from the TimeSplitters videogames. Apparently, TimeSplitters are aliens who like to create a bit of havoc with the human race by fartin around in time with big guns. Enter Sgt Cortez and others to save the day. These visuals showed just some of the hilarious and lethal ways they do it. Quite fun - but again there was NO budget, and, frustratingly, they just wanted these quickie thumbnails, so no real time to get into it. Still, at the end of the day, if you've seen Terminator, read some Judge Dredd and know how to draw a War Toy-style robot - you're pretty much sorted stylistically.

Ready Brek scribbles

At about the time of the Transformers movie being mooted, and with a hint of the then-recent Minority Report, the Ready Brek guys came up with this rather sweet idea about the all-seeing Robot Food Police, whose job it was to make sure people kept well away from unhealthy snacks in the future - even if it meant scaring the crap out of them. So, fridges are forcibly emptied of lollies, oven chips and fish fingers and the contents chucked into a "zapper" etc, but good old Ready Brek is the exception to the rule or something...

Sorry, Rene...

This was a rather nice idea for Citroen, featuring the car in a Magritte landscape - complete with scores of black cats and umbrellas in the sunshine - driven by a Belmondo-esque maniac.

More High Comedy

A large amount of frames for a BOOTS script from a few years ago -again, Moliere to the fore on this one...
