    I’ve always like the idea of blending my characters into real world situations. Just wish Langston would call of the troops as a certain little monkey is scared stiff!
  2. My Strawberry Monkey
    Thank you! Much more too come..

    Here’s another behind the scenes look. This time it’s a little glow up for Langston… For the simple style I started with I never really liked the animals having hands and anything I tried I wasn’t happy with. Whilst this project was created for preschoolers I guess it has a little more wider appeal now.

    Ohhh My! Poor Geecher… Hope he’s recovered after being pulled apart. And now this!? I think he might need to take some time out…🤣 Keep it up George, love seeing these comic strips…👊🏽

    There have been a number of characters created along the way, for some I had to go back to the drawing board and start again.

    @eejits Ohhh My! It does indeed, it's great to see the growth from two characters in to what it's become... Yes, thanks to @peter 😀 Thanks, a lot of learning and changes along the way...Many more to come!

    It does indeed! And yes, just a shape with reduced opacity if I remember correctly.

    @peter Thank you. Getting Lee Evans on board would be amazing! The studios will always have their own agenda and people they would like to use…

    Thank you @peter! I still remember walking into a local shop and them asking me if that was me on the front of a local paper, it was and I wasn’t expecting to be featured. Gotta treasure up those good times and create memories. .

    Not sure if I mentioned this before, but BBC ignite feels like a scam. I remember reading that if you get down to the final two, they want to see a little animation project put together from a studio and if you wasn’t chosen out of the two, you would owe the BBC £xxx.xxx.xxx for them paying the studios and creating the animation. Which would mean any studio that took on the project would immediately be in debt. 😂

    Just like old times! It’s been a minute or two… I’ve always been inspired by your work and progress. We’ve touched based a few times over social media and via this forum where it all began. And we share a few common goals! I’m sure we’ve learnt a a lot along the way! As I’ve shared previously, your work with eejits reminds me of the Mr Men/Little Ms series. It’s definitely been an eye opener with studios and book publishers… Keep pushing, keep progressing, keep on doing what we love!

    Wow, has it really been two years, since I last came here!? How time flies is what they say...😂 I've busy with other projects and life and a little creative rut. Anyway, love coming back here to see where it all started, the books and characters were actually an add on to my design work initially, then over the years it's grown into it's own thing. Here's another before and after, such a contrast. The two main characters and the rest of the project have had a 'glow-up ' 🤣 The first image was one of my first for this project and the second was something I put together yesterday. On reflection, I definitely rushed into this in the early days but I've learnt a lot along the way.😀 Allan

    The Polluted Mind! Unload your mind from all the pollution and noise we collect, store and think about that mentally drains us. Created in Affinity Photo, I usually start on the Mac then switch to the iPad for when I need more precise control using Apple Pencil. To see the rest of the collection, head over to allanthompson.art

    So, after sitting on this project for far too long I decided to submit my art to a few galleries. Below is a list of my upcoming exhibitions, based in London or online for now. Check out the website and the events page for more details. www.allanthompson.art

    Watching the Joe Wicks documentary on mental health last night made me think about one of my pieces I created a couple of years ago. I called it ’The Storm Within’ created to represent our internal battles. www.allanthompson.art

    The Diver. This piece was created to visually represent how we as humans so easily allow others to dive right into our minds. We allow their opinions, their words, their negativity to get deep down within us. Yet, it is us who suffer in silence, we become ill, stressed, depressed! Let's close our minds to that negativity and only allow positive thoughts in. http://allanthompsonart.etsy.com

    The Barbed Queen. Latest piece in the series, hopefully it will up on my Etsy by the weekend. http://allanthompsonart.etsy.com

    Thank You @iuli I've heard of many cases like yours, It definitely feels like more protection is needed for sellers. Whatever platform you're on, unfortunately there will always be those who seek to take advantage, both sellers and buyers. Sorry to hear about your experience, I've seen similar feedback across multiple platforms including this forum. People love to complain, no matter what. Even if you go out of your way to support your customer, negative feedback will happen at some point. Unfortunately we can't please the world... Thanks for your suggestions, currently working on my seller message! Allan Thompson

    I started this project (photography art based on human behaviour and the mind) in Affinity Photo about 3 years and did nothing with it. Recently dug up my work and felt inspired again and set up shop with Etsy. The majority of my prints are now available from my Etsy store! Only took 3 years to get here... http://allanthompsonart.etsy.com Allan
