amelia's reject

i did this illustration for amelia's magazine, the theme was "positive future", unfortunately it wasn't selected for their next issue, i did however get an email which was pretty funny saying:
As I also don't have time to respond to you individually, here are the main reasons why yours may not have been chosen: I hope they are helpful:
A lot of people did not properly explore the subject matter or respond to the brief and resources provided properly.
It was not the right size or shape for my pages.
Your style is not right for me.
You will probably know which one of these applies to you, and I hope that you will buy the mag to see the illustrations which made it - the next issue looks great.
i like how at the end of the 'tutorial' they still try to get you to buy the magazine.

must watch film

went and watched 'son of rambow' last night which was brillant, highly recommended. it reminded me of when i was small and wanted to be just like MacGyver, i once stole some of my moms tampons and hung them around the garden and pretended they were some radio censor bomb things, the joys of being a kid. anyway go watch it.

london trippin

spent this weekend in london, went down for a launch party for the new kingdom magazine. which reminded me that i hadnt posted about the photo i took which was published in the last issue as well as the dirt box ad on the back cover which i designed. the party was a goodun and i saw a massive dog on the way home which is always a highlight.
