Online game design - "Grub Lovin' Cheeky Chicks!"

2012-02-15T17:22:10Z

I created this game a while back for kewlbox.com. Don't actually know whether it made it to a full scale playable online game, but it was fun to create anyway. Here are some screen shots of how it was meant to look and play. A bit of a similar concept to the 'whack a mole' style of game, but instead of hammers and moles it's a mother bird regurgitating grubs into her baby chicks mouths as they pop up out of the nest. The object of the game was to feed as many chicks as possible whilst avoiding the rodent bad guys. Sounds weird now I'm writing it, but hey it's not the strangest thing on the web! Let me know what you think or better still whether you've actually seen it online somewhere. Enjoy!

Another fab weekend of Six Nations rugby! Woohoo!

2012-02-10T16:16:24Z

The second weekend of the 6 Nations. All important to either get that second win or perhaps more importantly to avoid two losses in a row! Win, lose or draw it's going to be a cracking weekend of rugby! Here's the line up...

The Six Nations are on! Wales for the Grand Slam?!

2012-02-07T16:05:51Z

A superb weekend of rugby! A few teams not quite performing to their potentials, with a bit of a lacklustre game from England and Scotland. Wales on the other hand were fantastic! A great game against Ireland with perhaps neither team deserving to lose. Wales however showed true determination and team spirit to pull off a last minute winning score. Can wales now go on to win the Grand Slam? Time will tell, but I'm really hoping so!

The 6 Nations 2012 are here! Hurrah for the egg chasers!

2012-02-03T15:25:02Z

That's right (real) sports fans, the Six Nations 2012 begin this weekend! A full weekend of egg chasing, dirt tasting, face stamping, eye gouging fun! Will Wales live up to post World Cup expectations? Will England defy their critics and successfully defend their 6 Nations crown? What type of French team will turn up? Will this be Irelands year to shine? And is it too early to say it's out of Scotland and Italy for the wooden spoon this year? Time will tell, but if one thing's for sure, the Six Nations will undoubtedly throw up a few unexpected results and some truly exciting rugby! Bring it on! Come on Wales!!!

A random space shuttle

2012-02-02T09:32:41Z

I created this little shuttle a while back and forgot all about it. I've just stumbled across it on my hard drive so thought I would give it a little 'trip out' and introduce it to the world! I may actually go and have another look around for some of my other long forgotten images! Expect some random images soon. Enjoy!

Spring Madness beer pump clip for The Langton Brewery

Here's the latest pump clip designed for The Langton Brewery in Thorpe Langton, Leicestershire. The beer is called Spring Madness and is available in many pubs in and around the area. So, if you see it on a bar near you please be sure to take a pic and send it my way! Cheers!

You can view a video of how I produced the vector artwork by visiting my video's page. There's also lots more time lapse movies to see all broadcast from my youtube channel AntCreationsTV! Enjoy!

Symitry IT triangular advert

2012-01-24T12:06:42Z

I haven't created many triangular adverts in the past. This one is for Symitry IT based in Market Harborough. Having such an unusual shape that still needs to contain all the usual company information created some interesting design problems that needed a bit of extra creativity to solve. Hopefully this does what it needs to do, whilst still being clear and easily noticed and read! Let me know what you think...

RFU Injured Players Foundation rugby ball marathon illustration

2012-01-19T13:22:56Z

I've just created this A4 sized illustration on behalf of the RFU in England. The cartoon is to appear as half of an A3 poster that will promote the RFU Injured Players Foundation and will appear in every rugby club in England. The aim of the poster is to encourage many wonderful people in the rugby world to run a marathon for the RFU charity.

It was a great illustration to work on and needed to be completed very last minute. The whole project went from initial conversation to finished artwork in just over 24 hours! Let's just say my eyes were a little tired by the end of it all. As usual I would love to know what you think, especially if you see the poster out and about in your rugby club. Feel free to leave a comment below. Enjoy!
