Background:

Illustration

I like to blend influences from pop culture, childhood obsessions and toy design to create a world of bleary-eyed monsters. I can also produce more technical realistic work, and spent two years as a Graphic Illustrator for Games Workshop. I have a BA in Illustration and was nominated for the Hallmark Innovation in Illustration prize in my final year.

Art Department

I am experienced in the production of graphics, models, figures, dioramas and props. Have worked in the art department of film and television productions as both an illustrator and model maker.

Toys

I produce low run polyurethane castings of sculpture, toys and models. I also produce custom designer toys and action figures, with accessories, weapons and sometimes fabric costumes. I have exhibited and sold toys internationally and have my own range of sculpted characters in production.

Engineering

I am fully trained as a manufacturing engineer having worked for Rolls-Royce plc and as Senior Engineer at the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre in Sheffield. Freelancing as a manufacturing engineer I specialise in Unigrahics CAD software, tool design, lean manufacturing and manufacturing planning. I have a HND in Manufacturing Production Engineering.

Music

I love music and collect records. I like to play these to people sometimes and go by the DJ name of Tin Soldier. You can listen to some here.
