The set includes five new pin-back badges, each featuring a different classic horror movie monster.

Order now if you want them before Hallowe’en — if you’re quick I’ll even throw in a free Hallowe’en badge as a special thank you!

It’s like expensive finger-painting!

I’ve been told now, however, that Autodesk’s Sketchbook Mobile is the one to get if you’re seriously into scribbling on your telephone.

A new trevormay.com! http://feeds.trevormay.com/~r/trevormaycom/~3/e6IGSUTw-pY/ http://trevormay.com/2009/08/19/a-new-trevormay-com/#comments Wed, 19 Aug 2009 13:46:45 +0000 Trevor http://trevormay.com/?p=98 Well, here we are… A brand new portfolio website!

There are lots of bits that still need to be done: changing that top scroller to HTML with larger images, adding the sketchbook, fixing alignment issues and, er, Eye Eee Six.

If you’re looking at this site in IE6, sorry about that. It uses transparent PNGs extensively and the antiquated (yet sadly supported, thanks Microsoft!) browser doesn’t really like them much. You’ll still be able to view everything right now but it’ll sure look a bit odd!

Anyway, let me know what you think… and drop me a line if you have any work!

P.S. The old one is still here if you’re feeling nostalgic.

I’ve been working on the main bulk of the new site so haven’t tidied this bit up yet. I’ve pulled my old sketchbook posts in here for the time being — acting both as filler and as a prompt for me to do more! Watch this space.

I’ve just released the new look antikewl.com into the wild.

Yes, you did hear me correctly; Antikewl Daily got its very first design! Since becoming a blog in 2003, antikewl.com has worn numerous off-the-shelf themes on both MovableType and WordPress before settling on an increasingly cobbled hack of the PlainTxtBlog theme in 2006, now it is just too big (and wobbly) for its boots.

You might have noticed a few extra features that I have added already like the ability to subscribe to comment replies, links to related posts on every article and short urls… but these are just the beginning!

Enjoy… and subscribe to the Antikewl Daily RSS feed for regular updates!

I actually did these right after the last set of sketches, but haven’t been able to post them until now.

lesson1_08

Yes, more from lesson one (still!). I was hoping to get a lot more construction sketches done this weekend but you know how they just fly on by!

These went a little bit better, though I noticed that for some reason I tend to add a bit of extra width to the heads. I’ll have to keep a tab on that.

lesson1_07

One good thing I’ve noticed is that I’m getting a bit more confident with just putting the pencil on paper and going for it. These were sketched out much quicker than any of the previous pages of heads. Now I just need to keep my accuracy under check!

I have been having problems with comments. If you tried before but didn’t have any luck, try again. It should all be fixed now!
