showing off

I like to think of myself as a very modest person, but I am proud to say that my work has been on show at an animation festivals (Stoke your fires) two years running as well as two graduation shows (i still am not sure why). here are just a few pictures of my work on show.

 this is pipa (yellow figure) on display with others  from Blue Sky's Robots at Stoke your fires. she later featured at Staffordshire university graduation show (one year before I actually graduated)


 these two are from a steam punk animation that I made with May Jowdh and Richard Ackland. the top picture is my main character and the other is one of the background characters i made, you may have noticed that it is based on count dooku from star wars clone wars ( and when i say based on.....).
this is a picture from my graduation show. i made the maquette of the dog that featured in the money tree. the replacement puppets were made by May Jowdh.
 again from the money tree these are the badger bailiffs that i made from foam latex. i animated the one on the right and Tom Grainger animated the one on the left.
 this is steam boy (as well as my steam powered robot), he was a background character from steam pub.
 this shows some of the small detail of the house set for money tree.
 and this is the set in its entirety.
finally this is the woodland set.
