Ronaldo

A commissioned from ImagineFX magazine, used to launch their Fantasy Football competition, where the challenge is to reimagine football players as fantastic creatures from myth, horror or sci-fi.

Miscellaneous Scribble

I came across this old doodle from a couple of years ago, and I quite liked it. If I remember correctly, it was originally done to explain to someone else on a forum a more natural pose for someone having just woken up, rather than the fairly stiff pose they had at the time.

Meryl Streep

A caricature of the multiple Oscar winner (but not this year), done for the E-Caricatures challenge.
