VVVVVV started

I totally forgot to post the pencil outline of this! Thanks go to LewieP from savygamer for playing the game to get the screen shots I needed, and thanks to Terry Cavanagh (the dev) for giving me permission to paint it!


Here's the source image I'm working from:




I forgot to take a picture of the pencil outline (oops) so here it is with the black part already started:  


Bottom half:






Top half: 




And yes, that's the messy painting area I work in! 




Here's the whole thing so far:






Just to give you an idea of the scale, really, as its such a tall image compared to its width.

Professor Layton and the Last Spectre is finished

Well, I completed the inking in last night, and so now its ready to be packed to go to Seattle, I just have to buy some more polystyrene to wrap in in.



Here's the whole thing:

Professor Layton and the Last Spectre almost done

I've painted again today - I'm trying to finish this so I can post it tomorrow, as it has to reach Seattle before 8th December.




Here's where I'm up to :










And here's the figures painted in: 




I'm planning on doing the inking in this evening, so I can post it off to Seattle in the morning.


If I do get it done, I'll upload another image.

More Prof. Layton and the Last Spectre done

I've painted a bit more of Prof. Layton. I'm trying to get this one done before the weekend so I can post it off to Seattle in time for the Child's Play auction on December 8th.

Here's the whole thing;




And a close-up:



I'll post more tomorrow.

Hitman is finished

As I promised myself, I spent this morning painting, and I've finished Hitman. It was raining, so I couldn't go outside to take photos, so I've taken 3 with flash, and 3 without, see which you prefer.


The whole thing:

Then again, but without the flash:

Once its thoroughly dry, I'll be sending it off to Patrick.

Hitman almost complete

Yes! I've got my camera working again!!! 


I took it to Jessop's, and the very lovely man there told me I'd been using the wrong type of battery - for the last 5 years! I was using AA, but I apparently needed AA with a wrap around to stop them moving about in the camera - £12.50 later I have a fully functioning camera. 


This means I can update Hitman!

The flash has bounced all over the back of his jacket - I'll try to take an outdoors shot tomorrow if its not raining.


I expect I'll finish this tomorrow, as all I have left to do is the traffic to the right of Hitman and the railings.
