Each day (Monday to Friday) there was a different character from the infamous Tim Burton stop motion animation.<br />
<br />
I didn't get a chance to take part in every day but I did Wednesday to Friday. So I thought I'd show you a bit of a step by step process of what I do. From pencil outline to the scribbly fine liner finish I so often favour and then colour- using my polychromo pencils and the new kraft paper I got, which I'm loving!<br />
<br />
Here are a few images showing them all- Lock, Shock and Barrel, Jack and Sally and Oogie Boogie.<br />

I changed the original template slightly with the swirls coming from the castle to the lettering.<br />

It's going to be a cut out of the Disney castle, more based upon the Disneyland Paris castle rather than Disneyworld. It's so magical! This will be a very tricky and more time consuming piece because of the detail in the castle and I also wanted to include text with this piece of 'When You Wish Upon A Star' (classic). So I've just sketched out a rough version, which I'll now neaten up more to create a template ready to cut.<div>

I don't normally do pet illustrations but it's something I'd like to improve on. I really loved working with my polychromos on this (and another current piece). They layer up so well!<br />

It's something I've always admired and been inspired by but never really tried much myself. I made a card earlier in summer which was quite basic but this week I got a chance to do some more with a gift for my mum and dad for their anniversary and then an 'Alice in Wonderland' inspired piece.<br />

It's all the H's today with a Hobbycraft Halloween haul. Is it just me or do you wish Halloween was much more celebrated here in the UK? It's such a fun time of year with fantastic decorations, crafts, costumes- everything and yet it's just played down here. Although I have to say...and this is where I sound old- it's more celebrated now than when I was little. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And just for fun I'll even throw in my own halloween pic from me dressed up as a child- step back from your screens now....you have been warned!!</div>

So with Halloween coming up next month and the purchase of the 'Glitterville's Handmade Halloween' (by Stephen Brown) book I have so many ideas and inspiration swirling around in my head for craft ideas. I get so excited about Halloween and I don't know why- I don't have any children or younger siblings or even parties so....</div>

This booked is packed with so many great ideas, as well as heaps of projects and ideas online too, such as Pinterest etc.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I went through the list in the book of materials needed for most of the projects but these are materials that can used for loads more crafts/projects. I didn't quite get everything I wanted but most of it. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The annoying thing is- I had some polystyrene spheres that I'd had for a long time and it was only about a month ago that I threw them out.</div>

I was looking for pinking shears but they are quite expensive, some from £10 - £30 although I did see some for £5 but I went with these, which are not quite pinking shears but they'll do for now and you get 2 different cut designs for £2.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next up is some floral wire and tape. I do have some thicker aluminium wire from making stop motion models etc which is good for making the body, legs, arms but finer wire like this is best for hands and smaller details. I've not actually used floral tape before but its used a lot in the book and i'm guessing it's similar to masking tape but thinner with width? I could be totally wrong here (probably am). The wire was £3.50 and the floral tape was £2.</div>

I spotted these as soon as I walked in, on sale which was perfect as just a few hours before I'd ran out of my 0.05 fineliner which is amazing for tiny detail and shading. So I picked up 2 of these for £1.07 each instead of £2.50 each!</div>

Next is the classic pipe cleaners or 'chenille stems' as they are known as now too (which I had no idea about). It's years and years since I used any of these, yet they have so many uses for crafts. I stuck with the classic black and orange for Halloween and each pack contains 25 for £1.70 each. I also bout a pack of orange and a pack of black crepe paper which is 150cm x 50 cm for 50p each.</div>

Then 1/4 " wooden dowels which were £1.40 each but I later found out that night that B&Q sell them for 75p each. I also got a 1kg packet of DAS air drying clay. I've used this in the past quite a lot and it's really handy to have when you want to build up something without having to bake it like with other clays. They sell a 500g pack for £4 but it was better value to get the 1kg pack for £6.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And lastly is 2 packs of polystyrene shapes/balls. The first pack has a variety of sizes, 12 in the pack and the 2nd has 5 of all the same size. These are fab for making heads with, using paper mache over them. Really handy to have in! I'm thinking Jack Skellington! I used these a few years ago to create some peacock models for a stop motion. It keeps the model light weight and can be painted well. You can see an example of these on this post<a href="http://ashleigh-animation.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/updat-has-arrived.html?q=peacock" target="_blank"> here.</a></div>

So that's the end of my Hobbycraft haul. There's heaps more I could of/would of loved to buy but the pennies are a bit short. These should cover lots of ideas and projects though which I'm looking forward to getting started on. I'll keep you updated as I go.</div>

How brilliant. I thought to myself- I never take part in these type of things for doing a sketch and I've been wanting to draw again lately but I've been having a major creative block. So I thought what better than doing this today and it also gives me the chance to try out my polychromo pencils.<br />
<br />
Today's character was Mad Eye Moody. Here's what I created. I scanned it in which never picks up the same with the colours and shading. I'm also having one of those moments when I look at my work and think hmmm, do I like my style, do I have a style?? I'll ponder on that and leave you with the image itself.<br />

I have just completed an ebook cover design for 'The Blurt Foundation' who just lastnight announced details of the ebook, which is their first. <div>
The book is called 'blurt it out, living with and surviving depression'. It was released lastnight for a limited pre-order <i>'<span style="background-color: white; color: #6d797f; font-family: HelveticaNeueW02-55Roma; line-height: 16px;">For a limited time, we are offering pre-orders on a 'pay what you can' basis.
The book will be published on Monday 15th September when the price will be set at £3.49. The full book will be emailed to you then also.
People from all walks of life have come together to share their experiences of depression and recovery. Expect lots of head-nodding as their experiences and descriptions resonate with you. Insightful, raw and honest.'</span></i></div>
<div>
<i><span style="background-color: white; color: #6d797f; font-family: HelveticaNeueW02-55Roma; line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></i></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 16px;">You can find the pre-order here - <a href="http://blurtitout.org/the-book/" target="_blank">Blurt ebook</a></span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you haven't heard of the Blurt Foundation before, it is a user led community online who help and support those affected with depression. They work to fight against the stigma, which is often found with depression. It is a fantastic organisation and helps so many people. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Their website is here: <a href="http://blurtitout.org/" target="_blank">Blurt</a> and their facebook page here: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Blurtitout?fref=nf" target="_blank">Blurt It Out Facebook page.</a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So onto the design, we didn't want to create something cliche or really dark. It had to reflect the subject of the book but also represent an uplifting feeling. Originally I designed it with a yellow background and smooth line work.</div>

I really enjoyed creating this and for such a great cause. I'm sure the ebook will help a lot of people and mental health is something I feel needs a lot more awareness of because even though it's in the media more, there is still a very negative stigma attached to all aspects of it. </div>

It's something I've never been able to do well and always wanted to try and get a bit better at. It's a good skill to have and be able to incorporate into designs etc. So I got a few books to give me ideas and inspiration. To be honest these don't say much about layout etc but design wise it does have a lot in them. I was so excited when these arrived! They were all bought from <a href="http://amazon.co.uk/">Amazon.co.uk</a><br />

I forgot to update on this the other week on the zentangle style design I was working on in my moleskine. I reallyyyyyy enjoyed doing this!!

And now can I have a drum roll please????.......... last week my stationery obsessive, geek mode kicked in MAJORLY!! I made the most incredible purchase- a set of 120 Faber Castell Polychromos!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I've been looking at them for a while and pricing and Amazon have the 120 tin set here for £142.35 (the RRP is £210), so that's a fantastic saving BUT.... right now the art shop Details in town (Newcastle) have the set on promotion for £99.50 which is just immense!! They were out of stock but I rang up as soon as they got them back in and reserved one until that lunch time. I was at college and dashed down during my break (now that's how you spend a lunch break!). You can buy online from them<a href="http://www.details-express.co.uk/cgi-bin/sh000001.pl?WD=polychromos&PN=Faber-Castell-Polychromos-Pencil-tin-of-120-FC110011%2ehtml#SID=90"> here.</a> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Honestly when I got back to college, I was sitting there thinking- ooh they are in the bag right next to me, waiting to be opened. I took the cellophane off and had the BIGGEST grin on my face. Even my tutor looked and said 'wow I can understand how happy you are but clearly your ecstatic right now, look at your face!!' haha. It was a damn proud moment. When I opened them and saw all of the colours in each tray- just wow!!!! I kept smiling for days after, even still now. They've made me so happy and what an incredible set to have. I can't wait to start using them. I've been so busy but I'll be making time soon. Here is a pic which doesn't do them justice, they are a true beauty!</div>

And now I've just started this 'zentangle' style piece which up until last week, I'd never even heard of that term! I've seen lots of sketches/pieces but never knew that's what they were called. <span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">It's really relaxing, no right or wrongs and just plain pen to paper- no pencil or outlines etc. Good fun!</span></div>

I had totally forgot to post these but I ventured into making some home plaques and fimo/sculpey keyrings. These were actually really fun to make and quite simple, although the plaques were more time consuming, purely due to the technique I used.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I experimented with some crackle glazes for the first time but then tried just simple sanding and preferred that. I noticed with a lot of the plaques available to buy in shops or online, that they are either handwritten with a fineliner or sharpie or printed on. Now I don't have the facility to print but I tried by using graphite paper and tracing through with that, then painting the font by hand- and lets just say I'm not the best painter or have the best brushes to do this so it took a long time! After painting the font, it was then lightly sanded again.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Here are a few examples of the plaques I made.</div>

The keyrings I made were just really simple from silicone moulds. I'd never tried using them before but it was brilliant! So, so quick and easy to use and allows you to make a lot, fast! I did have trouble with getting the sealing glaze on (a matte one) but once that was sorted it was fine. I didn't want them to have a glossy glaze because that's not how they are in real life. I just made some Jammy Dodger, mini Oreo and life size Oreo keyrings. They were so fun to make! I dusted some chalk on them too, just to add a bit more colour and depth. </div>

The Oreo keyrings look darker in pictures than they are in real life, the last picture is probably more of how they really look. A mixed brown/black shade.</div>

So thats what I was up to for a while. I still have a lot of clay and the mdf plaques etc which I will make more of at some point. I just have been busy with different things on and off over the last few months. They are nice to do for a change though, to be more hands on with making something again because I often miss that side of things. So watch this space for more down the line! </div>

I know! I've had quite a busy month really with the end of my course at college (teaching assistant) and the end of my placement, then I had to quite quickly look into lots of things before sitting an entry exam for a masters degree, which I'm not longer going to do now. Then it was my birthday......27! shhh. Lastly I got some work from a client in Canada who I worked for last year when I created the netgrandpa logo. <div>

I really enjoyed creating the logo last year and it was lovely for them to get back in contact again. This time they required 22 web icon thumbnails designed for their website <span style="background-color: white; color: #565656; font-family: 'Open Sans', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">taskerrz.com </span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #565656; font-family: 'Open Sans', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Web icons are something I have never designed before but to fit in with the style of their site, I knew it had to be quite sketchy but also bold, colourful and professional looking- digital rather than hand drawn or coloured. </span>I tried using a new style with different brushes on illustrator, a lot more textures than usual and then more of a double layer to create depth and shadow. I'm really pleased with the outcome of these designs and it's something I really enjoyed working on! They were very happy with the icons which is the main thing. It was done via People Per Hour which my page can be found at <a href="http://www.peopleperhour.com/freelancer/ashleigh/hutchinson/illustrator-designer/419647">here</a> </div>

I have been working on a few logo commissions over the last few months and I have done a few (major hence on the few) moleksine doodles. I've wanted a moleskine for ages and already I've not been able to keep up with sketching in it (oops).<br />
<br />
A little 'Tales of Us' doodle inspired by the Goldfrapp cinema event I went to which was AMAZING (as was their tour obviously).<br />

And a very rough sketch character thing which I realised turned into me. I'd like to go back to this and create something more with it.<br />

I still have a lot of areas I want to experiment with, with my illustration- mainly posing, expressions etc and the form itself.<br />
<br />
So down to the reason why this has all been happening.... I started a level 3 teaching assistant course back in September as you might already know. There has been lots of written work as well as doing a placement in a Primary School which I have just finished. Im pretty much at the end of the course now but I've applied to do a short 5 week mental health awareness course from June, as well as applying for a masters in Social Work, which I have just found out I have a exam to go and sit on my birthday (lovely). So this has been my last few months.<br />
<br />
I did however set a little time aside for myself and created this which was inspired by drag queens and makeup charts.<br />

And......then about 2 weeks ago I lost 5 months worth of files due to an update to Mavericks on my Macbook Pro. It said it had backed up with time machine, but hadn't so I reverted back to the older OS and then it just messed it all up. I couldn't use my graphics tablet, photoshop or anything. It was just all so incredibly slow and crashing all the time. I had to get a new one and so I'm still busy getting it all set up and need to put all my files on which should be a thrilling task (not).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Speaking of graphics tablets, with all of this happening, I thought it was time to update mine and get a smaller one which is easier for travel and just takes up less space desk wise. I had a 2009 Wacom Intuos small model which I loved but obviously they've changed since then and the new Pen & Touch ones looked really sleek and had great reviews so I got it. I haven't had a chance to use it yet, just once for a few minutes but the pen feels a lot different (thinner) and I got so used to putting the other pen in the holder, which this one doesn't have. It'll take some getting used to but I will. </div>

They've been reading the BFG lately and I helped them create some drawings of him which was so much fun, so much in fact that it inspired me! Something fun and quick to do.

Happy New Year everyone!! Sorry for the delay and lack of posts. I swear one of my 'resolutions' is to keep posting more often again. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year.
I have been working on various things over the last few months, some of which I can't post but other things such as making a range of handmade plaques for the home and polymer clay keyrings. I've also been working on logo designs and other illustrations. I'll post more about these very soon with some pics too. I've made a few updates and changes to my Facebook page too, changing it to Scudge Makes. My facebook page <a href="https://www.facebook.com/scudgemakes">here</a>
So I promise, more updates to come!
