man smokes a fag. from rob blake on Vimeo.

test animation for the fairytale project. though i'm not sure claymation is the best approach because it's well time consuming and hard to edit. be better of with drawn animation. also i'm thinking now that i'd rather make some actionscript based games, because they will be smoother with better playability...
been working on a one man and his dog game, which could easily fit into the boy that cried wolf, jack and the beanstalk etc - all the fairytales are based in the countryside where i've heard there are sheep.

poster for a benefit gig.

this is a half hour thing to replace what was originally going out. not too hot on photoshop anymore, downloaded some brushes to give it a diy look it really needs the text to be cut out as if it is sprayed, rather than flat type, which looks a bit naff.

this guy is an absolute genius - tim hunkin

as a kid i spent years reading this guys book - "almost everything there is to know" it's amazing.

equally amazing is his tv series and various projects he's done over his busy life. when i'm bored i just watch these. the fax machine one is beauty, as is the word processor one (they're all sick, and hosted by askmyarse? ( http://uk.youtube.com/profile?user=askmyarse&view=videos )

rough sketch for a poster for an exhibition i'm doing in march.

this game is well addictive.

i left my mate john on it at 12 and he looked up to see it was 4.30 am and had to get up in two hours to go fit out a kitchen. gutted.

i'm into this sort of thing. games should be either funny or playable, this is the latter. It works off some very solid physics engine.

knock yourselves out.
