Andy Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Ok so i used to draw and paint a lot. When I left school I wanted to be a Science Fiction and Fantasy Paperback cover artist. ended up as a projectionist at the cinema. . .lol WICKED job. . .but not what I'd envisioned. So I carried on doing my stuff just for myself and a few commissions from friends. They are all pretty much from the late 1980's (after that I was married with a job and kids and well. . .time flew by. ) I've put them as much as I can remember in Chronological order. The Enterprise. . .done because I'd slagged off someone elses work. . . then realised. . Can you do better??? Et at the Cinema. . something fun I did while I worked at the cinema Dark Crystal. . .More cinema fun Job centre Jedi. . .Return of the Jedi characters in the job centre coz it was the last movie. Vader. . .nuff said Seaflight. . .my first large painting in acrylics Starlight bar. . .aliens having a drink ! First contact. Daemon reading a book. Stainless Steel Rat.. . .Done for a computer magazine competition. Eowyn the Valiant.. . . another competition entry. . .20 years before Peter Jacksons masterpiece. Pencil portrait of Kelly aged 4 Pencil portrait of my eldest son Gary aged 3 The last 3 were commissions for friends Lioness Indian Leopard Eagle Hunting Rabbit. Dragon heads done in Biro. . .
