<br />
The story revolves around a mystical society that lives within a giant tree, and the power struggles that lie within.<br />

Author Jahed Uddin approached me to created a book cover for the first in his trilogy Science Fiction series <i>The Chronicles of Sol.</i> He provided some sketches and details about the Atmos ship, which was to be the central focus for the illustration.<br />
<br />
In it, we see the giant space station under attack, whilst below we see a populated surface of Mars. This was a real challenge, as it required creating a detail space station, something that I've never attempted before. Using Adobe Illustrators basic 3D tools, I used this as a base to then manually craft the textures and effects. Below are some early prototypes leading up to the finished cover artwork.<br />

Giving me some details around the mythology and access to the initial game prototype, I helped him to create a brand that could tie the entire game together. Below are some screenshots of the work I produced.<br />

A few of years ago, I helped my fried Judith Lewis with some graphics for <a href="https://www.facebook.com/DysprosiumCon/">Dysprosium</a>, the 66th National Science Fiction Convention, in London - also known as Eastercon.<br />
<br />
2018 sees a new convention, returning to a similar theme entitled Ytterbium, which Judith asked me to work on once again with some graphics.<br />
<br />
I focused on Science Fiction and the element ytterbium as my inspiration, trying to provide enough elements for the convention graphics. Starting with the logo, I followed up with a photo-real illustration, using actual reference shots of ytterbium to create a fantasy planet. After this, I created a more illustrated style, with the focus astronaut floating on a chunk of ytterbium in some kind of nebulous crystalline void.<br />
<br />

<br />
And note that, rather than illustrate an astronaut, I made use of my 3D printed <a href="http://waynedorrington.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/catastronaut-3d-model.html">Catastronaut</a> model, who graciously posed for me and gave me exactly what I needed for the work.<br />

This wallpaper almost happened by accident. I was creating this graphic for another internal project, and in the end wasn't right for what we needed. But I thought it might make a cool wallpaper!<br />
<br />
Turns it it worked quite nicely - no 'beyond' related phrase this time, just straight up summertime: astronaut style!Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894118745819837005noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420645868912901579.post-60123746092846485562016-07-25T15:10:00.002+01:002016-07-25T15:11:46.106+01:00Beyond Wallpaper: The Great Beyond<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Here's another Beyond Wallpaper - this time focusing on the phrase <i>'The Great Beyond'</i>. Once again we join our intrepid ice-cream eating spaceman and his cat, this time exploring a strange new world.<br />

I wanted to capture some of the events, stories and characters that work in our London creative agency, Beyond - so I created a week's worth of five animated GIFS to try and do just that.
<br />
<br />
Each explores a tiny snapshot of events and personalities (be they real or imagined) as I've seen them in my six years with Beyond.
<br />
<br />
Hope you like them. I've certainly not made myself that popular here by doing them.
<br />
You can also see them on the Beyond Blog: <a href="https://bynd.com/news-ideas-tag/london-animated/">https://bynd.com/news-ideas-tag/london-animated/</a><br />

Following on from an <a href="http://waynedorrington.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/illustration-beyond-infinity-wallpaper.html"><b>earlier illustration</b></a>, I created this new wallpaper for Beyond. This time it centres around the phrase 'beyond your wildest dreams', so I created a weird, dreamy letter art design. I also used a minimal colour palette (which isn't as easy as it looks) and added a layer of texture.Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894118745819837005noreply@blogger.com49tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420645868912901579.post-77280275699853325102015-07-02T14:00:00.001+01:002015-07-02T14:00:17.966+01:00Official Harry Potter Pottermore Infographic: Draco Malfoy<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Potter more asked me to create a graphic to commemorate one of the most popular characters in the Harry Potter universe: Draco Malfoy. Growing up with Harry during their years at Hogwarts, Draco truly lives up to his family name by taking every opportunity to oppose Harry. But in the end? Well, you should know how he turns out!Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894118745819837005noreply@blogger.com26tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420645868912901579.post-13407440567638028672015-07-02T13:57:00.000+01:002015-07-02T13:57:00.736+01:00Official Harry Potter Pottermore Infographic: Dobby<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Another opportunity to create a graphic for Pottermore - this time honouring Dobby, the mistreated house elf of the Malfoy family. The quote comes from a defining moment where Dobby gets a chance to exact some payback on his cruel master.Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894118745819837005noreply@blogger.com183tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420645868912901579.post-45518219512613323582015-06-25T13:50:00.003+01:002015-06-25T14:03:35.357+01:00Beyond 4 Year Anniversary 3D-Printed Lego Set<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is a project I decided to do, partly to celebrate Beyond's 4 year anniversary, but mainly to practice at 3D model making.<br />
<br />
My idea was to create a 3D object that represented how the company had grown over their 4 years - My first thought was to create a 3D ornamental sculpture - but I wasn't happy with the results and it proved problematic to print out. So, I decided to go with a custom Lego set.<br />

<br />
The first step was to create the bricks - this was actually much harder than its sounds and it makes you realise how fine and consistent the tolerances are real Lego pieces! Building the model (in Google Sketchup) was relatively easy - the hard part was getting the sizes right to allow for the material when 'clicking' bricks together.<br />

Next, the many many many attempts to print them out. Each time I'd have to adjust the model, or try a different approach to the print settings, with supports, without etc etc. Eventually, though, it all came together, and I printed them out in a few colours.<br />

More work for Pottermore.com - this time a celebration of the birthday of Professor Sprout, the Herbology Master. This one was aimed more at social media specifically, so we designed it in a square. Love doing this one with more hand-drawn graphics - I wanted to give it an impression of being more like a text book entry. Great fun to do!Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894118745819837005noreply@blogger.com61tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420645868912901579.post-66460215626460084432015-05-31T09:57:00.001+01:002015-05-31T09:58:14.969+01:00Official Harry Potter Pottermore Infographic: Famous Slytherins Through the Ages<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid77JVki3ACEvOfH3bf98ajh6Q-9GwHtxFXuAT2LI-kwSC7Mf6-PVpJuHRv_iF-4FrHx4Ai_Z1LY_3rNMNQXsVQEWYZbg-su6zdXcdUklePFGtQuxgpzqp4nQxTQisCxTERlK01AOh5A/s1600/slytherin.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid77JVki3ACEvOfH3bf98ajh6Q-9GwHtxFXuAT2LI-kwSC7Mf6-PVpJuHRv_iF-4FrHx4Ai_Z1LY_3rNMNQXsVQEWYZbg-su6zdXcdUklePFGtQuxgpzqp4nQxTQisCxTERlK01AOh5A/s640/slytherin.jpg" width="320" /></a>Another great opportunity to provide some work for Pottermore.com - this time showing some of the most famous Slytherins through the ages. Never knew Merlin was in Slytherin! This was used as part of Pottermore's House Cup, where fans vote & compete to get their favourite house the most points.

This is my very first real attempt at creating a complete 3D model and then producing it as a printable kit, complete with moving parts and the ability to print in multiple colours.
</div>
<br />
It's been a steep learning curve, from learning to create 3D models, to buying a printer and learning what works and what doesn't - but finally here's the results.
<br />
<br />
I'll be creating a video shortly outlining more details and how it came to be - but for now, here's some more images.

This is the second of my <a href="http://waynedorrington.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Harry%20Potter">official Harry Potter infographics</a>, commissioned by <a href="https://www.pottermore.com/">Pottermore.com</a> - the Harry Potter social / gaming / news site, originally set up by J K Rowling as a home to expanded development of her works.<br />
<br />
This work focuses on Defence Against the Dark Arts, asking which of the cannon's Professors you would want to be taught by yourself.<br />
<br />
This piece required more illustration, as it was calling out for 'portraits' of each of the characters. And it needed a darker feel (due to the subject matter) than the Cybil Trelawney infographic - so I went with a darker parchment and mixing some red into the colour palette.<br />
<br />

I was recently contacted by <a href="https://www.pottermore.com/">Pottermore.com</a>, the Harry Potter social / gaming / news site, originally set up by J K Rowling, as a home to expanded development of her works.<br />
<br />
They found my <a href="http://waynedorrington.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/infographic-no6-harry-potter.html">Harry Potter infographic</a> from a couple of years ago, and asked if I'd like to create some new content for Pottermore - I said yes immediately!<br />
<br />
This is the first one, featuring some true or false facts on Sybil Trelawney, the strange Professor of Divination at Hogwarts. Its been <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pottermore/photos/a.444547445579625.115539.213276278706744/927518100615888/?type=1&theater">featured so far on their social media channels</a><br />
<br />
I devised a style that tries to emulate the world of Potter, with elements of ancient and new working together. I did this with an ancient parchment background overlaid with vibrant colours and some contemporary illustration.<br />
<br />
It was great fun (and an honour to do!)Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894118745819837005noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420645868912901579.post-69789068187095604792015-02-21T11:34:00.002+00:002015-02-21T11:52:27.999+00:00Board game art: Pleasant Dreams final print unboxing photos<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Nearly 2 years ago I was approached by board games designer <b><a href="http://www.aerjengames.com/" target="_blank">Aerjen Tamminga</a></b>, who was planning to create several games and wanted to know if I'd be interested in helping. I loved his ideas, and thus began a fantastic journey working with Aerjen, with a view to primarily creating his card game, <b>Pleasant Dreams</b>.<br />
<br />
We created a lot of artwork, brainstorming ideas and refining a style - and just over a year later, we had completed all the artwork he needed to proceed with his business plan.<br />
<br />
The next step was launching a <b><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1143256637/pleasant-dreams-a-card-game-of-nightmares" target="_blank">Kickstart Campaign</a></b>, which was hugely successful and provided him with more than enough money to put Pleasant Dreams into production. (<a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1143256637/pleasant-dreams-a-card-game-of-nightmares" target="_blank">Check out the page</a> including the Updates tab, which has lots of background into the production, with some of my concept sketches)<br />
<br />
Today was a great day, and the end of the journey - when my copies of the final printed version arrived in the post. <b>Here's some photos of the unboxing</b> some of my favourite pieces of work - the quality of the printing is excellent - which I know Aerjen worked hard on with the printer to get right.<br />
<br />
Many thanks again to my mate Aerjen - here's to all your future games and continued success!<br />
<br />

<a href="http://www.waynedorrington.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Hitchhikers%20Guide%20to%20the%20Galaxy" target="_blank">This is the third in my series</a> of reimagining beloved Douglas Adams book covers in the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy series.<br />
<br />
In the third instalment, Life, the Universe and Everything, we again centralise around Arthur Dent, who seems to be an unwilling observer of bizarre occurrences, which just seem to happen around him whether he likes it or not.<br />
<br />
Here, we see him in one of his rare happy moments in the stories, flying through the air above a ravaged landscape, terrorised by the flying party that pillages it for booze and snacks.<br />
<br />
We see Arthur about to collide with the flying party, and on it we can just see the feet of Ford Prefect and Slartibartfast as they cling to edge for dear life, unable to get in without a bottle.<br />

<br />
Here is my reimagining of the second book in the classic <a href="http://www.waynedorrington.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Hitchhikers%20Guide%20to%20the%20Galaxy" target="_blank">Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy book series</a> - this time its The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.<br />
<br />
In this cover, I again focus around Arthur Dent, who is the book's main protagonist. We follow the adventures of a hapless Arthur, as he gets continually presented with an unsatisfactory Universe that never really seems to meet his approval.<br />
<br />
In this moment, we find him finally back on Earth, but sadly millions of years to early due to an unplanned time-warp. He stands watching the burning forests and the faint distant wreckage of the Golgafrinchan Ark Fleet Ship B, and in the foreground... Crude Scrabble tiles?<br />
<br />

This is a re-work of an earlier illustration I did as part of a series <a href="http://www.waynedorrington.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Books%20By%20Their%20Covers" target="_blank">reimagining my favourite books with new covers.</a><br />
<br />
The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy is by far my favourite book series ever, so I'm planning to create all of the books in the same way. To begin with, I went back and touched up the original illustration (but not much).<br />
<br />
This shows the moment where Arthur first realises he is truly on another planet, walking on the surface of Magrathea as the dual suns set. We also se a dejected Marvin nearby and the Heart of Gold ship parked in the distance.<br />

Its nerdy time again!! I haven't done a <a href="http://www.waynedorrington.blogspot.co.uk/search/label/Star%20Wars" target="_blank">Star Wars graphic </a>for some time, but I had an idea for one and thought I'd put it out there.<br />
<br />
This is imagining what would happen if C-3PO lost his shit after being thrown out of the Cantina by the Barman in the original Star Wars... and came back in ready to get busy.<br />
<br />
It is what it is.<br />

It made me laugh as an idea, anyway.Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894118745819837005noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420645868912901579.post-3406824605379031962015-01-14T12:47:00.001+00:002015-01-14T12:47:20.452+00:00Animation: Rated RPG<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My friends Aaron Yonda and Matt Sloan asked me to come up with some intro graphics for their new <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/blamesocietyfilms" target="_blank">Blame Society</a> Youtube Channel, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1it2s0qxjk4&list=PL49WgzlbhrT07WkOZ3yVN7OejoqoV7gDE" target="_blank">Rated RPG.</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The series is Matt and Aaron playing Role Play games with special guests, with the emphasis on comedy. Matt and Aaron are seasoned comedy performers, as are many of their guests so the show is great fun to watch and created some hilarious moments!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I may have gone a bit overboard on the intro though - I had an idea to create an animated cartoon for the intro, to give it a real 'fantasy' start each episode. It took a while to illustrate and animate, and I quickly realised I hand once again come up with an idea that was probably too ambitious.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But, eventually I completed it, and sent it over the Matt & Aaron - and they loved it!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As soon as it showcased on their next Rated RPG episode, the fans began to post comments about how they liked it, and Matt and Aaron tell me its a great success.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So here's the intro as seen in an episode - I animated it 'old school' style in Adobe Flash, as I'm lazy and haven't really got into After Effects yet. Hope you like it.</div>

My friend Aaron Yonda over at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/blamesocietyfilms" target="_blank">Blame Society Films,</a> has a very successful Youtube sub-channel called <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/GameSocietyPimps" target="_blank">Game Society Pimps</a>, which focuses on video game 'Let's play' comedy.<br />
<br />
He asked for some help creating some artwork they could use for a variety of promotional items, so I created this poster, based on some of their most popular characterisations that come out of their improvised games.<br />
<br />
Aaron and team were really pleased with the results and you can get a print of this poster via their <a href="https://subbable.com/gamesocietypimps" target="_blank">Subbable channel</a>.<br />
<br />
Check out their channel - they create some really funny stuff and is quite unlike any other kind of Let's play video out there. Well worth watching!Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894118745819837005noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1420645868912901579.post-19409217574272757082015-01-14T12:27:00.001+00:002015-01-15T17:58:03.905+00:00Illustration: Brooklyn Rugby Club<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

My friend Ben Martin, who works in our Beyond New York office, plays for the Brooklyn Rugby Club. <br />
<br />
He asked if I could create an illustration for their Christmas card, so I came up with a an idea which he and the rest of the club seemed to like. Ben arranged for the card to be printed and it seemed to go down well! <br />
<br />
Well, I do 'try'. (Sorry.)Waynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05894118745819837005noreply@blogger.com0
