A little pixel animation to welcome our new little Yorkie pup Baxter!!! Swipe if you think you can handle...the cuteness! Luckily he's not that yappy...yet. Baxter is extremely cuddly and easygoing and has settled comfortably into our apartment. Now come the joys of training! #yorkie #yorkshireterrier #puppy #baxter #welcome #newdog #adorable #pixel #pixelart #16bit #retro #game #motion #motiondesign #motiongraphics #animation #animated #adobe #ae #aftereffects #video #design #cartoon #motionlovers #render #instaart #cg #video #creative

Here's a 2D hand rig - something I'd always wanted to create! Made in AE, following some tips and tricks but also came up with some of my own too. Here are some varied pose examples; it can rotate 180 degrees, splay all fingers and contains controls for each finger curl. Expressions were used to achieve the nails disappearing palm-side.⁠ ⁠ Swipe for the BTS of the rig and style effects to achieve the final look!⁠ ⁠ #hand #poses #handrig #2d #2drig #rigging #2drigging #bts #wip #joysticksnsliders #motion #motiondesign #motiongraphics #animation #animated #adobe #ae #aftereffects #black #video #design #blm #cartoon #motionlovers #render #style #instaart #cg #video #creative

Some character designs for an old personal project that would have been called 'Don't Shoot the Messenger'. It would have been a montage following various types of servants, assistants, slaves as they are killed after delivering bad news to their masters.

A submission for the Character Design Challenge - the original doctor: ⁠ Raphael; Archangel of Healing.⁠ ⁠ The theme for the month was 'Doctors and Nurses'. ⁠ Swipe for BTS + sneaky close-ups⁠ ⁠ #character #characterdesign #doctor #angel #healing #medical #man #raphael #design #creative #designer #adobe #photoshop #illustrator #artist #digitalart #artwork #visualstyle

A WorkSafe poster created after a series of animations featuring the same style. Tried to extend the brand visuals a little to include fun, quirky and diverse characters.⁠ ⁠ A friend sent a photo of it on a telephone box out in the real world (translated to Mandarin)! Apologies for the low-res image but you get the idea.⁠ ⁠ How do you feel when something you've created is released out into the open? #poster #translation #worksafe #design #graphicdesign #graphicdesigner #graphics #creative #designer #adobe #photoshop #illustrator #vector #vectorart #artist #typography #digitalart #artwork #marketing #branding #visualstyle

"Approachable, friendly and trust-worthy" character explorations for a 3D female presenter. Unfortunately none of these were used due to the client changing direction, choosing instead to go for a live action presenter. These were really enjoyable to design, especially trying to include different shapes, sizes and styles.⁠ ⁠ Which one do you prefer?⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #characters #characterdesign #presenter #3d #concept #art #sketches #females #design #graphicdesign #graphicdesigner #graphics #creative #designer #adobe #photoshop #artist #digitalart #artwork #marketing #branding #visualstyle

⁠ Pre-production behind the scenes on my animated short, Flock Together. I'm happy to be digging back into this film after a few years on the back-burner.⁠ Check out some of the initial storyboard frames and script drafts. Gotta love those SFX descriptions...⁠ ⁠ Anyone else revisiting or refreshing old dusty projects?⁠ ⁠ #BTS #WIP #preprod #pre-production #storyboards #script #concept #shortfilm #motion #motiondesign #motiongraphics #animation #animated #video #design #cartoon #creative

Nothing to see here... just a toothbrush flossing. A little loop that I made which went unused for a project. I jazzed it up and put it out into the world anyway! #toothbrush #flossing #dance #flossingdance #moves #bathroom #toiletries #party #disco #character #motion #motiondesign #motiongraphics #animation #animated #adobe #ae #aftereffects #video #design #cartoon #motionlovers #render #instaart #cg #video #creative

A recent portrait comission x2 for someone's anniversary present. They were drawn entirely separately so the images could be printed and framed (which explains the space between them) #portrait #comission #digital #painting #couple #anniversary #photoshop #design #graphics #creative #designer #adobe #photoshop #illustration #artist #digitalart #artwork #visualstyle #stylised
