Exactly what it says on the tin.

Well hello there stranger.

After a bit of a hiatus from blogging I'm back. Had a bit of a grotty cold over the last few weeks which has slowed me down, but other than that there's been good news in the form of receiving the Emma Jesse Phipps Bequest from University, which was a wonderful surprise. Also a nice trip down to Bristol  when I got to see some great Aardman props from Pirates! in the M-shed, including the huge ship used in the film. And my blog has just ticked over onto 20k views, huzzah!

I'll leave you with a bad quality photo of what I'm currently working on: my own take on Frankenstein's monster. Some better photos to follow soon as well as a couple of other sculpts I've been doing.

Wrapping up my final week at University, I finished with a satisfying First Class Honours, which has made the work seem worthwhile.

On top of that, I won the Trevor Beattie (TA2) Award for Stop-Motion, presented by Ian Mackinnon (of Mackinnon and Saunders) for my film "Being Dead". The other nominees were brilliant, and fully deserved it as well, so go check them out: Gareth Hirst, Claire Hanson.

Onwards and Upwards!

  

 

I'm selling the last few copies of the first batch of the book "Being Dead" off on folksy, so head on over if you fancy one!
