Month: April 2011

End, Interval and Beginning

As covered in previous posts (and highlighted on the right), i’ve been heading a 2-part project to create a children’s mascot for Keighley’s Cliffe Castle Museum. Well, the second half of Cliffe the Caterpillar finally came to pass in March.

This chapter required more complicated / exciting imagery than the first. There was also a tighter deadline this time round, but it was still brought in on time!
Below are two of the five images made:

Cliffe the Caterpillar, as Sherlock and with a Roman Soldier
Cliffe as a great detective – Cliffe with Centurion

As I was working on the above, a second freelance project came in. An upstart called Nexus Education wants some branding and promotional material creating, and I started off by providing a logo:

An agency supplying and screening substitute teachers.
An agency supplying and screening substitute teachers.

Then freelance disaster struck – I was offered one of these things called “a job”! No, it’s not in a design studio, and it’s temp ongoing, but I grabbed it with both hands!

So here’s the rub: Now i’ve had to put my involvement in the Nexus project on hold, and can no longer help the 3D group mentioned last time (not for a while at least). Shame.

I can, however, afford to buy more than food now, and it’s not a bad place. Onwards for a wage!
