Here's an angry looking gorilla I've recently created for an ongoing client project. I'll add a load more images and information regarding the project soon, but thought I would give you a sneaky peek at the latest member of my gorilla friends. Oh and it's Friday so click that power button off and get down the pub for an early one! It's the weekend! Yeehaa enjoy
Italian frog for Warning Zone party at Firenze
Yes, I know it's been absolutely ages since I last posted some work. I've actually been on holiday for a couple of weeks and therefore was too busy beforehand to update my blog (plus I forgot!). Anyway here is a frog I've created recently for Warning Zone. It is the latest adaptation of the frog character I created for Warning Zone. You can see some of the other examples in my portfolio and in previous blog posts 01, 02, 03. This particular frog is being used on an invitation for a 'Supper at Firenze' Italian restaurant in Kibworth. Check out the frog below and how the front of the invitation looks below again. Would love to know what you think. Enjoy!

I'm still lovin' the time lapse video! Here's my latest project for The Langton Brewery condensed into a few minutes. Be sure to check out my other video's and if you enjoy them, why not subscribe to my AntCreationsTV youtube channel?! Enjoy
December the ninth. Moody reindeer!
Just over two weeks to go until Santa arrives! Woohoo! Here's another reindeer to help get you in the festive spirit. Not sure which one? Maybe Blitzen? Happy Christmas and happy Friday!
December the sixth. Another reindeer has arrived!
Didn't quite manage an illustration a day! Oh well never mind, but I will try to add at least many more before Christmas (vague alert!). Here's another reindeer who's very happy that Christmas is on it's way. Season's Greetings everyone!
PS For the eagle eyed amongst you, you'll notice I've changed the reindeer's feet from the previous Rudolf post to look, well...more reindeer like! Enjoy!
My new style of illustration...(doggy)
Howdy folks! I've been playing with a new style (for me) of illustrating. I normally favour a more detailed and solid style of illustration as you can see from the examples scattered around this site. I usually get a bit too excessive when working on an illustration or cartoon, and I spend ages fussing with the lines, the highlights and the shading. All that means creating a new design takes me an absolute age!
So, I've decided to play with this new style of illustration in an attempt to speed up the creative process, whilst still keeping to my recognised way of creating characters. Here's my new way of illustrating. Still vectors of course, but far more loose...
Let me know what you think. I will post some new images when I get a bit of time to create some more!
Langton Brewery New 'Angler' Beer
Here's the latest design for The Langton Brewery's new beer. As you can see it's called 'Angler', and the design needed to represent a happy fisherman and his prize catch. The beer is only available on draught at the moment, hence the reason this is a pump clip and not a bottle label. If you are in the area (Market Harborough, Leicestershire UK) then you might just see it in your local pub! As always let me know what you think, and please send me a pic if you see it sitting cheerfully behind a bar near you!
The new site is filling up!
If this is the first time you've visited my site then you won't know any difference. If however you have been here before (thanks for coming back) you will see a completely different site than has been here for the past couple of years!
My new site has been built and hosted using Squarespace, which has turned out to be very easy to use. I have been busy adding as much as I can to the site to get it off the ground, and will be adding loads of new images and pages over the coming weeks. So please do check again in the future to see all these fantastical things that will revolutionise your world and change the Universe forever! To be honest the new stuff will just be images and useful pages, but you never know, they might change your world a little bit?
Anyway enough chat. Take a look around and let me know what you think. If you spot any mistakes tell me. If you see something you like then definitely tell me! Relax for five and have a browse. Enjoy!
Here's a jumping duck, happy because it's Friday!
Where've you been?!
Yes, I know I haven't put anything on the blog for a couple of weeks. The reason being is that I have been busy setting up my new site! (you are on it in case you hadn't noticed!). New site, new pages, new content and importantly a new blog (and therefore blog address). No point visiting my blogspot address any more as it will only redirect you here. So if any of you lovely people have been kind enough to bookmark my old blogspot address you will need to change it to be brought directly here in future!
I'm still adding to the site and have lots of new pages to create, but in the meantime please feel free to have a look around and let me know what you think. Enjoy!
To help celebrate everything that's good in the world, here is a picture of a dancing donkey...
