I’m a big fan of Lupin the 3rd (Lupin III) and I just finished watching the latest series (The Italian Game) and wanted to try sketching with a brush pen. I think I either need a finer brush pen or to make my sketches larger. But I like the idea so I might try making this as a finished painting.
He joined his sister, the Unicorn Mable Pines plush in his new home in May.
Inspired by the Gravity Falls character Dipper Pines this is a custom designed werewolf plush.
The completed plush stands roughly 6 inches tall (8-10 inches long to including his tail).
The plush includes the characters birthmark, hand-embroidered on his forehead under his hair.
He has machine embroidered appliqué eyes and felt claws.
Made from dark brown Minky fleece he is small but cuddly.
For fun today I thought I would sketch Hunter from Neil Gaiman’s novel Neverwhere dressed in her battle trophies. I have never watch the TV series but I really enjoyed the book.
Pencil drawing over watercolor wash.
Fairytale Portrait – Snow White – inspired by the theory that Grimm’s Fairy Tale is based on the life of Margaretha von Waldeck, a German countess.
I liked the idea of her as real girl, in her own time and dress. And her story has then been woven into a tale that is still being retold today.
I read to today that it is the 3oth Anniversary of Jim Henson’s Labyrinth <3
It is one of a kind and is possibly the films that has influenced me the most. To celebrate, not only the film, but the amazing people that made it so magical, a did a quick sketch from the ballroom scene.

It has been a very busy few weeks so it was nice to get to sit down and unwind with a drawing just for fun. This is a sketch of Susan Sto Helit from Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series building on the inktober sketch I did of her last year. I drew this in about 2 hours last night before bed with a CastellXF 0.7 mechanical pencil.
Thank you to everyone that stop by my table, chatted and bought something last weekend at OZ ComicCon Melb. It was wonderful to hang out with old friends and lovely making new friends. Thank you to all of you for making a busy weekend fun!
I have large and small prints, postcards, magnets and new plush toys for sale. Looking forward to busy nerdy weekend!
I will be selling prints and postcards of my work along with some new plush toys and a few other new things at OZ ComicCon Melbourne this weekend June 11th & 12th, 2016!
This will be my first time exhibiting at a OZ ComicCon event and it looks like it is going to be HUGE!
You can find me and my work at table 28 in the Artist Alley by the entrance near Stage 3.
I interpreted the character into my own original design to than translate it into a plush toy pattern. The plush is made from quality soft fleece, felt and freehand machine embroidery details.
The design includes:
– Plastic “boned” wings
– Unique appliqué head marking
– Re-enforced open mouth with teeth
Completed plush was meant to stands approx. 10 inches tall but it ended up being closer to 15 inches high making it a good huggable size.
