I made this before I saw the movie. The lead character was compelling enough visually and it fit in with my other early sci-fi flick poster projects. Having seen it now, I can't say I would watch it again but I would recommend that someone see it once. The actress playing the invader steals the show and the effects are not as bad as the budget would suggest. 

I wanted to try illustrating a pottery jar with cork lid, which we use to store garlic cloves. It seemed like a complicated and difficult design with a lot of nuances (it was) and I figured I would have to try out a few new techniques. I thought it came out looking fairly realistic and convincing. Hope you like it.

Here is a recreation of a vintage poster for the Paris Auto Show.  This was my attempt to incorporate some of the stylistic and design elements of that period of print advertising and graphic arts.

Eww, not now thank you!
You probably should have put that back in the fridge last night
 

Horn & Hardart Automat. Based on the attached photo with other references to try and work out or guess some of the stained glass windows.

This is based on a little image of a preliminary sketch of the car. In the end just one car was made and was a bit different to this..
 

This was my weekend little project. I used a few textures for example on the clock face to make it look less vector like. I might add some more things and rearrange at some point but that's it for this weekend. Edit: Messed up the export, shadows look too dark, you can see vs the vid

that's a good idea.  Having a Favorite Brush library or even a recent brush list available via a hotkey on desktop or a gesture on the iPad would be very nice.  Maybe that can be an option for the squeeze gesture for the Apple Pencil Pro.

Snowy Plover is a shore bird (similar to a sandpiper) that is seen in the Americas, along the Gulf Coast, etc, and is considered a near-threatened species, mainly due to habitat loss. I recently illustrated this little guy using Designer, Pixel Persona and AfPhoto. Hope you like it. 
 

Illustration of a Precis Octavia (Gaudy Commodore) butterfly, which is native to Central Africa and a truly stunning butterfly. Incredible colors and patterns. Created using Designer and the Pixel Persona, with a few trips to AP (procedural texture for the background). 
Edit: Image updated to reflect thinner antennae (the only modification).
 
 
 

I'm old enough to remember these; in fact I'm old enough to remember 'pick-ups' that only played 78s and had to be plugged in to the wireless (or radio, for you youngsters). The design is based on the Dansette machines that became popular some years after WWII when we Brits wanted to play those new-fangled American disks at 45 or 33. The actual turntable/changer itself isn't based on the Garrard or BSR machines that were common n the 50s and 60s, but is a bit of a mish-mash of others.

and back view (v. boring!)

The record player was a bit of a challenge but lots of fun (especially when I stopped) so I decided to do a tape recorder too. A lot more fiddly with all the bells and whistles! My uncle had one of these, a Spectone model with a Collaro Transcriptor deck and their own valve (tube) electronics. It cost around £80 in 1960, which is over £1,500 today -- only rich uncles could afford them!
I did quite a bit of on-line research (I'm a bit of a nerd) and this is the result. Like the record player, it was made almost entirely with shapes, many converted to curves and manipulated. The tape spools and control-knob panel are separate files linked with the Place Tool. Any questions? Right: on with the show!
 

A lady across the road asked me to help her produce an omega watch face which is to be printed onto edible paper for a birthday cake, and seeing as I have no work on, I thought I'd have a go at illustrating one from scratch so I can add it to my online portfolio http://www.bingercreative.co.uk , Im pretty happy with how it's turned out so thought I'd post it 

An update. Suggestions made me add a little more interest to it without, I hope, making the design less clean looking. 

My latest illustration (yeah, I know....another moth! 🙄). Reminds me of my youth, when my brother and I used to seek out butterflies and moths.
Done in Designer v2.5.7 and the Pixel Persona.
 

The lettering is really cool.  What jumps out at me is how clean the saucers are.  I think it would really pop if they were dirtied up with a brush.  

Another in my series of Sci-fi posters. 

Not going to make any creative suggestions (I'll let you imagination run wild), but I'd love to see this one developed a little more. You know, a couple of tweaks here and there. Concept is great.
