Heliciculture

It has been a busy week for me and I already have run a few days late with an image. I thank you all for your comments and I will try to reply with answers over the weekend. Here's more from Flushed Away. A rare attempt at character design. I see him essentially as a chicken mcnugget with eyes.

Objects may be bigger than they appear

More from "Flushed Away." This time it is a submarine built out of an old Messerschmidt car. Like all things, it took a bit of work to get it approved and it only appears in the movie for 30 seconds. Go figure.

One Small Step...

I started on "Flushed Away" a month after I graduated Art Center and spent the next 3 years working on it alongside a lot of other great designers/artists(POV, Scott Wills, David James, Max Boas, et al). One of the highlights was the Jammy Dodger mark II, a late addition to the story which I ended up getting to pitch the final design to Jeffrey Katzenberg. It didn't quite work out properly in the film(it was designed as a hydrofoil so it would gradually rise out of the water but in the film it magically hovered once the skis deployed).
