Here are some sketches I've been doing in the evenings to wind down - based on old photographs from the Victorian and Edwardian era.
(These are concept sketches of characters from the Discworld novels.)

New Background sketches

These are some new designs for the park in my film, based on a storybook style.
I began with the photos I took of my local park as a starting point - I blocked in the main shapes in the photos with big watercolour brushes on photoshop, then sketched some details over the loose shapes.

Also, here's another sketch of the Queen, this time from the front:

City Concept Sketch

A rough sketch of a city building: a kind of Frankenstein creation made by combining bits and pieces of different art nouveau buildings I was looking at, then adding my own touches to make sure the end result was somewhat cohesive.

I love the verdigris on the windows that buildings from the era have, so I used a bright teal against the sepia tones to get that feeling.
