• MOTHER'S DAY GINGERS •

Look out for these cute Gingerbread characters in your local Morrisons supermarket this week. Following last months Valentines promotion Mr Ginger is back and this time he's brought his mum!

At first I thought of trying to model the icing on mums head in Form Z, my 3D programme. But I'm not such an expert with it and I could foresee lots of trial and error, so opted for plasticene modelling instead.

Once it had been re-coloured, re-sized and placed onto the ginger head I knew I'd made the right decision. The flower needed to look like rolled out icing and this simple version was pure artwork, light and shade created with the tools at hand in Photoshop.

Here's the perfect way to celebrate Valentine's Day, with a delicious pair of Gingerbread characters illustrated by Hot Frog. This campaign runs through most stores and ties in with a whole host of products from flowers and chocolates, of course, to bakery,confectionary and stationary.

These 2 characters first appeared on film in the christmas promotion featuring Ant and Dec, and they proved so popular and successful that Morrison's thought it cool to have them illustrated so as to run them throughout the year. So watch out for more.

Every so often I refresh my catalogue of downloadable graphics for the Smart phone, Cell phone, Talky, Handy etc.

I now have somewhere in the region of 200 designs available and all registered and precessed through WDA - Wireless Development Agency in the US.

I quite like this little Rainbow Tortoise fella and hope he or she goes on to greater things. The images are reminiscent of the psychedelia I produced in the 1980's and 90's using the ubiquitous V Dub van.
