Graphic Novel (publishers pitch)

I have just began working with a very talented author called Ravi Thornton, we have just started collaborating on a pitch for our first Graphic Novel entitled 'Child' and below are a couple of the character designs for 'Brin and Bent' (heads only, bodies are still yet to be made). This is a project I have been wanting to do for a few years now and i will be posting much more on this as we go along. Happy days!........................

Migrate Mag , Kult Mag and Various other things

Hello all

Ive not been blogging much but I hope for that to change this year. Ive been busy as usual ,here are some samples of what ive been up to below :) enjoy.

First off.........
I was commisioned to create an editorial for a magazine form Johannesburg called Migrate Magazine (http://www.theloerieawards.co.za/) it was for their 'Signs of the Times' issue and here it is (the illustration is on the left and is entitled 'Portrait of a recruitment consultant').



















Secondly.........
I was commisioned to produce a editorial for Kult Magazine (Singapore) (http://www.kult.com.sg/). This was kinda unusual as aswell as appearing in their magazine the work is going to be animated and placed on these Arcade machines they have placed in hotel lobbys around and about Singapore. The editorial itself was based on 'Hiv can lay dormant for years before becoming fully fledged Aids'. (pictured below)

Thirdly........
I was Interviewed for http://www.3dillustrations.blogspot.com/ by the very talented Liz Lomax here: www.3dillustrations.blogspot.com/2009/11/andy-hixon.html and some of my work appeared in this French magazine called 61MP here : http://www.6m1p.free.fr/ .Anyway more posted soon...............................................
