OUZO THOUKIS

I have been busy lately, working on some very interesting projects. Collaborating with very interesting and talented people is the most proper word. One of my collaborations is finally on air.
My very talented and exceptional designer friend Marios Karystios (http://www.karystios.com/) has asked me to illustrate the anise plant for the Limited Edition Ouzo Thoukis. I really love his minimal and elegant point of view. He has managed to design a really unique packaging.
Make sure to follow this link for the original post and more of his great works.

Kid in the block keeps drawing

Kid in the block saw a trendy horse. He wanted to share it with you.

Manstripping plus others

Some more doodling

Oh yeah

Doodling tonight

Work in progress/Self portrait

Working on my head as a model most of the times helps me re discover my drawing lines and most of all costs nothing. Except maybe unwanted projection. Exaggerating on proportions is kinda giving an elegant atmosphere. In reality only chaos occupies my head. Haha.

Standing

A character I've made recently with vectors. I kinda like it. It is more comic like because I am still experimenting and practicing in animation so I try to think that way all day. When I'll feel more comfortable with my animation skills I'll show you moving stuff.

Some things I've been sketching lately

Lately I am flirting with animation. I am trying to remember the basics and I am mostly sketching quickly either characters or frames that can have an interesting story before or after. These are some very quick sketches which I did mostly with the paper app. Some I've already published in my twitter account. The reason I didn't post them first here is that it would might be a bit tiring to any readers might keep reading my blog, if they were to see them one by one. Any comments or suggestions are always welcome.
