Wallace Collection sketches

I am not allowed just yet to post any of the concept work I've done on Cloud Atlas or most of the projects I've worked on this year but in the meantime, here are a couple of sketches. They were done at the Wallace collection where we've been with Simon this weekend.
Black marker pens for the blacks and line work and gray values in Photoshop.

Armour sketches

It's been a while since my last post as I've been very busy at Method working on some exciting stuff :)
I won't be able to show anything from this project before a while but here are a couple of sketches I've done this Sunday while at The Wallace Collection with my good friend Simon.
The little Japanese red stamp is the phonetic interpretation of my name "Philippe". This stamp was a great gift from Yuko's Mum that she got made by a craftman and artist in  Izumo-taisha (出雲大社 Izumo Grand Shrine.

Hope you like them, I'll try and post more regularly from now on, including more film work ;)

Tokyo sketches...

We just came back from a trip to Japan to visit Yuko's family.
Here are a some of the sketches I've done in my little Moleskine sketchbooks: mostly very quick ones as we ran around all the time.
I used a classic big marker (round tip) and a brush pen (love those ones!).

Otagi temple...

A little sketch I've done a few weeks ago during our trip to Japan.
There are 1200 small stone statues in the surrounding gardens of this temple (near Kyoto) and every single one of them has got a different face.
It is said that if you look for it, you will find your own face...

Rainy Tokyo street

Sunset hunt on Zelda 6...

Quite busy at work at the moment but here is a quick little sketch colored in Photoshop.

British museum

Went to the British museum yesterday with Sam (Rowan) and Simon, a fellow concept artist from Double Negative. It was during our lunch hour so didn't have much time but I could have stayed the whole day: there are so many amazing masks and artefacts in the African section that we visited. Also check out the amazing animal sculptures in "the Americas" section.
