That Time of Year

When I should be doing college work instead of drawing Santa.

Curruid Short Film: Test BG and Turnarounds

Curruid Short Film

Here's a sneak peek at some character designs for my final year film in college.

Boba 30,000

My blog just reached 30,000 hits! that's awesome, thanks everyone you're all equally as awesome. So to celebrate I drew this

My take on one of my favorite characters ever, Boba Fett. I really enjoyed painting this one even though it took forever and I developed an eye twitch from staring at a computer screen. Worth it!

Zombie Wants a Soda

This poor guy has been buried underground for years and all he wants is a sip of soda but the little fat kid just wont share.

Zombie walk from Adam Kavanagh on Vimeo.

I was inspired to do this little animation after I saw ParaNorman.

Childrens Book

This is a simple Illustration I did for a childrens book not to long ago.

Update

I haven't had a lot of time lately to work on personal stuff, which is fine by me because I'm currently story boarding and colour boarding on this amazing project in Giant Creative.

 Promotional artwork done by the extremely talented Gavin Fullerton, hes one to watch.

Whale Head

Greetings from Mr Whale Head

Prometheus And Other Doodles

This is a collection of Doodles I've done over the last month or two and never got around to posting them. 

First off these are few drawings I did for my new fancy business cards (almost too fancy to give to people) Thanks to Barry Keegan for getting them printed for me.

 

Next is another birthday Card. I don't think I'd trust a fish to bake a cake.

 A couple of profile pictures for Gareth Lee (who runs The Irish School of Animation at BCFE) and Kev Ryan, the two of them looking sharp as always.

 

Now on to Prometheus. I drew these by memory (very hungover memory) the day after I saw the movie so they are pretty much 100% true to the film. Spoiler Alert if you haven't watched it.
I really should of posted these when it was a bit more topical, who wants to hear about Prometheus now that Batman is out? Oh well enjoy.

Finally I leave you with the all mighty Cosmic Elk

Yeah I don't have much to say about that one.

Monster On a Cliff Finished

Monster On a Cliff

The girl was bugging me, so I drew a big furry monster instead. This is pretty much how it will look, just need to refine the monster and a few other places.

Girl On a Cliff Part 2

Blocking in colour and picking out some smaller shapes.

Girl On a Cliff

Blocking out the basic tonal areas

Sketch

Just a sketch I drew while sitting in the sun in the park, I might paint it up.

Owl Boy

His name is Hoot.

and yes I do like adventure time :D

Creature Feature

Owlenwood

This is concept background. I mainly did this to try some colour palettes.

it's very purple.

Annecy 2012 Sting

Heres a short piece I directed and produced in 48 hours with my college friends. It will be shown at this years Annecy International Animated Film Festival

Birthday Card For My Australian Brother

Flippin The Bird: Backgrounds

Flippin' The Bird is finished and ready for the end of year show. As a teaser here are all the backgrounds from the short. I painted all of these in photoshop. Check out the  Flippin The Bird Blog for more artwork and designs from the film.

The Avengers (Spoiler)

This was by far my favorite part from the Avengers, Hulk smashing Loki.

Wood

I got bored so I drew some wood.

Big Fat Cat: Part 3

Here he is, fully rendered. I got a bit tired so I didn't do a background. I might add one later.

Big Fat Cat: Part 2

Thats the main colour the lighting done. Next I'll add in some darker shadows and some more light sources.

Big Fat Cat

Since my printer/scanner stopped working awhile ago I've been trying to draw straight into photoshop, so that way I don't need the scanner but drawing in photoshop or even sketchbook pro doesn't hold a pencil compare to.. erm.. holding a pencil. Everything i drew in photoshop was a fail and it eventually just got to frustrating. So I went back to pencil and paper and just took a photo of it instead, the quality isn't great but that wont matter when I have it rendered because none of the line work will be visible.

I want to hug him but he would probably maul me.
