OctoPuss Sale

Just a quick post about the OctoPuss sale that's starting thursday, all prints £5, more details at the OctoPuss Blog.

LIFER!

Got my OctoPuss tattoo a few weeks ago (I know my bro will disapprove so I apologise if you're reading this) and I'm chuffed with it! Colours are really bright and it's looking sweet, just need to go back and get some shading done when I can afford it.  Took about 2-3 hours or so by Cal at Trackside in Heaton.

Linework.

Final Show

Well, my final show for BA (Hons) Creative Practice went as well as could be expected (a bit of a dive), but boozy times were to be had by all! Above is a photo of our main display in our main display....area, albeit a bit desolate without our portfolios etc. on display.

As I mentioned earlier, I've been busy at work sorting out OctoPuss, mine and Ed Tam's little business in cat related doodlings! We've set up a blog over here where you can see some of our work, although it was best to see it in person as images don't really do it justice! Our web store is also up at OctoPuss.biz and features an awesome Octopus themed background by Lynsey Gray, which is worth visiting the site for alone! Be sure to check out some of our work and maybe part with some dollar for a good cause (haha).

Oh and for those who're curious, I've passed my course and should have my degree in a few weeks:)

Mugs!

Just a bit of promotional stuff for my new 'OctoPuss' web store!

If I haven't filled you in, myself and Ed Tam (he draws cats in costumes) are starting our own little business doing freelance animation/illustration whilst also producing and selling products with our designs on them via a web store.

Anyhows I just got these mugs made and they look amazing! They're slightly different to the ones we will be selling in our store although they are an excellent indicator of what the mugs will look like and have turned out much better than I imagined (the photo doesn't do them justice).

We plan on launching the web store tomorrow with our final show so I'll post a link up on here tomorrow with the details:)

I have so much...

...shit up my sleeves I can't believe it! I've got so much going on atm, I really can't wait to finish my course and start doing *fun* things.
Anyhows, this is a test for something towards my final show...cat whale! I've got to have two A2 pieces ready to laser etch by Monday so I'm trying to keep it simple but nice.

Oh and those stickers I made didn't make it to Berlin, so if anyone wants any just let me know, I still need to lacquer them but it'll be done soon.

:O

The single most amazing find I made this week!

What I really wanted to post is this image Ed drew for OctoPuss as it is AWESOME! My next tattoo.

I think we're going to be making patches out of it, I'm not sure but Ed's been embroidering it the past week and experimenting so we'll see what happens.
