As a freelance illustrator, I am sometimes completely amazed at the fantastic projects I can get myself into! This time I ended out designing and creating (With the help of a couple of splendid volunteers! ^_^) a huge Halloween trail at a fort-museum... here's just a couple of my favourite pics:
 

This is my boyfriend wandering through the main tunnel... he was filming a walk through for me! ^_^ Just to give an idea of the spooky atmosphere of the place!

Tehehe- monster manor. This room could have been better, but alas.. I had a limited time frame. Next year, though... ^_^

Alas- no live music, but a life sized band of the dead instead! ^_^ Everyone at the museum ended out on a paper-flower making mission on the last couple of days, so this is before the room was roped off by a huge rope of mexican-looking flowers! ^_^

My Macbeth witches... actually I'm slightly scared of mannequins as it is... one of them had really creepy glass eyes, so I decided to keep the painting, etc. fairly minimal.

Thanks for looking!

Here it is:


Bonnie and Clyde, in their famous photo (although obviously, t'was a gun and not a cake!) to go with his gangster themed presents!
The inside there's felt lettering saying "Happi Buffdee, Clyde, Love Bonnie!"

Just thought I'd share! ^_^

Well... I've tried figuring it out, and it's just no use- I've found the person impossible to craft for! He's going to be... er... 22 (Oh my good gravy! I can't believe my wee bro's 22 already! O_O...ahem...) aaaaand he's into:
Computers (He's studying to be a game designer, but not really into retro-y stuff, just the new fangled 3d nonsense I think)
Japanese culture
matrixy actiony sci fi-y films
garfield (??)
Cars (but he doesn't drive, oddly... just likes the idea of driving VERY fast)
drawing (manga stuff, I think... we never see anything he draws, and it's probably a good thing, thinking 22year old girlfriendless male into manga... hmmm...)
and... MUSIC! He loves metal music, Jpop, the kinda 'guitar legends' types, Madness and the specials...
and he plays guitar.
oh, and he has typical metaller long hair and a goatie (oh my good gravy, my little bro has a goaty!)

he's one of these people who likes what he likes and screw anybody if they give him a hard time about it. Nice really, he's a bit like me! ^_^
Anyhoos, I've had a good long thinj- I think Im going to make him a sketchbook out of an old vinyl record, but otherwise I'm a bit stuck. I can generally turn my hand to most things... apart from knitting (Haven't quite got the time to learn to knit before 23rd Nov methinks) I illustrate for a living, but he has loads of my prints and stuff as it is... I normally end out getting him guitary stuff (guitar case, strap, etc...) so any fresh ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry for the super long message! -_- I waffle too much!
