One Day You'll Thank Me
Jacqui & Kate are two lovely ladies who have just launched their new blog titled "One Day You'll Thank Me", a blog all about their trials and tribulations as mums. I had the pleasure of making some fun illustrations for them too :)

5. Shadow render, original - very intense directional light & Lambert shader
6. Shadow render, cleaned up & colour adjusted
7. Diffuse render(1) * shadow render(6)
8. Diffuse render(1) * ambient occlusion render(3) * shadow render(6)

Crackpot 2010
Gestalten's Crackpot 2010 calendar is now on sale. I have two spots on the calendar but it was cool to find out that I'm among great artists such as Raquel Aparicio and Jean Jullien - go check their portfolios out if you've never heard of them!
