    Winter Madness beer pump clip and advert for Langton Brewery

    DateThursday, January 17, 2013 at 9:24AM

    This new beer from The Langton Brewery will be on sale soon. I've created the pump clip using the same sheep character that first appeared on the Spring Madness beer pump clip. The mad, happy woolly one appears in a different winter snow jumping themed pose this time (Eddie the Eagle eat your heart out!). Below is an image of the final pump clip and also the advert I created to promote the beer which will appear on the front page of the Middleton Wholesale trade catalogue. Let me know what you think or if you see the beer or the artwork out and about in the real world. Enjoy!

     Eddie the Eagle got nothing on me!

    Woodsman beer pump clip design for The Langton Brewery

    DateFriday, January 11, 2013 at 3:22PM

    I've just finished a new pump clip design for The Langton Brewery. The beer is called 'Woodsman' and the axe weilding character featured in the illlustration is based on John Kemp who regularly enjoys a Langton brew. John specialises in creating custom made knives and leather work and also supply's split firewood. You can visit his website at www.knyph.co.uk to see all the wonderful things he creates and supplies. If you see him about then say hello. Enjoy!

    The Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebration beer and pump clip

    DateMonday, May 28, 2012 at 2:22PM

    The Queen will be celebrating Her Diamond Jubilee over this next weekend. The Langton Brewery have created a special beer to commemorate the occasion and I have had the pleasure of creating the artwork below. I'm not sure if Her Majesty enjoys a pint but I'm sure she would like this one! Let me know what you think. Enjoy!
