My own designs ....



















I recently decided to dig thru' the years of development art .
I want to seperate out my own work to make a portfolio site for myself as a designer and illustrator.
Also, I think it would be nice to make a limited run of an Art of book to sell on the saloon website.

Anyway heres some charcter designs I did back in 2004 and I still like them in a lot of ways.
It looks like we might have had a bit more malleability in Brendan's face if we had stuck with this approach...

  1. I remember seeing some of the concept stuff a few years back in Kilkenny when they were on display at the animation Festival. I fell in love with it then and to be sure the final piece didn't disappoint. Only downfall was I didn't get the opportunity to see it in the cinema because I'm currently based in the UK without any local screenings. :( but now I have my DVD copy extras and all. :) Inspiring work lads. You've really done the country proud with this one.

  2. oh wow. this stuff is great! thanks for posting it, tomm.

    I love combing through this blog to find the character and concept stuff.

    Kells hasn't made it out here yet, but I've been kept up-to-date by some friends in Europe and one of my teachers at the Vancouver Film School who has pencil tests, that are gorgeous by the way.
