Vector of the Month on istockphoto.com



I recently got Vector file of the month on istockphoto.com. I was quite surprised when I saw it on the webzine, I just caught a glimpse of the cowboys head and went "wait a minute, thats mine!" Hopefully the DL's will come thick and fast! Here is a screen-grab of the vector on the homepage.

Cork Design Week 2008 Graphic Novel


The last 2 weeks have been taken up with this project for Design Week Cork. The brief is to design a 6 page comic / graphic novel based around the theme of "your universe", quite a broad topic, but i eventually decided on a topic that was quite familiar to me over the years! I used very minimal dialogue, I first wanted it to be text free, but felt people might think "what the hell is this about?" (Mightn't be a bad thing either I guess!).

The printed format will be 210mm x 210mm so, when published, it should look quite interesting. Unfortunately I can't put up any final artwork yet as the submitted work cannot be posted etc. I just finished it yesterday and i'm quite pleased. Hopefully it will feature in the final draft.

In the meantime, above is a dodgy 'in progress' pic from last week.

Slang.ie and Slang.org.uk Identities


I recently designed the identity for the UK version of the slang.ie family. Keeping in tune with the original logo except that it has just got the union jack introduced within it. This identity will appear on the website and hopefully a subsequent book.
