Skeksis cartoon

cartoon skeksis

With the release of the superb new Netflix series, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, I just simply had to jump onto the drawing board and create a Skeksis character in my own style! Who are the Skeksis? Ok, so for those of you who have never seen The Dark Crystal (but I seriously recommend […]

Cartoon Pterodactyl

cartoon pterodactyl

As we’re rumbling through Jurassic June, I felt we needed to add some variation to our dinosaurs with a cartoon Pterodactyl. Why choose to do a cartoon Pterodactyl?

Meet the Metaluna Mutant!

Metaluna Mutant

Whilst being in the mood for creating cartoons of classic movie monsters, I remembered seeing one bug-eyed monster in particular from my youth.

More cartoon monsters…

Creature from the Black Lagoon

I’ve been having a lot of fun recently creating some new and creepy cartoon monsters for my portfolio! But why cartoon monsters Nick? Good question! Simply because cartoon monsters have always made me laugh and enjoy making them look as warped as possible and you can have great fun exaggerating all of the features and […]

A cartoon witch for Halloween…

Witch For Halloween Cartoon

With Halloween almost upon us, I thought we could do with a new cartoon witch for Halloween! And to be honest, it’s been a fair while since I actually created a new character for Halloween. Previous Halloween characters As you may have already seen by delving into my cartoon portfolio, there are a fair few […]
