of course! I have a lot of the bigger ones made in 3 sizes for wallpapers for Camp North. You can find some of them here :)

Also what exactly is this Camp North? Sorry I don't frequent the art forum I just come here every once in a little while. If you want to tell me about Camp North I'll listen :D and again great pieces here

No problem. Camp North is a website created by my friend, Nathaniel Milburn. It is mainly an art website, but we also have flash and articles. It's a small little community, that is slowly taking off, and I'm trying to help him get it going good :3

You never seize to surprise me bluehippo. I love your colors. Your creations on the other hand are weird, in a good way. Very smooth though. Also, your abstract shit... delicious.

I love youre characters, but i think i like your backgrounds even more sometimes, they're so awesome.

Looking at all this digital art has got me down, need to step up my non-digital game so i can plan with the big boys.

keep churning out that sweet stuff!

I am going to try and be critical here...

I think your use of colours is brilliant and super-effective, but certain aspects of your character dimensions could be improved.

In the first image, the character fits in well with the rest of the picture. It doesn't look like the creature is cartoon 3D (example The Simpsons), but rather cartoon 2D (example Southpark) (I am just making these terms up because it helps me explain better).

However in the last image where you have the group of characters, it looks live you've tried to give them a bit of depth but it doesn't really work. They are also lacking detail, and the cat just looks bad.

I haven't ever tried to be critical before but I hope you find my criticism constructive ;)

Oh wow, just saw that image on the 2nd page, it's brilliant.

You are exceptional at that style of flat characters, and your combination of colours is also superb. This is my new desktop wallpaper. Thankyou.

I can't argue with that logic; I'm quite the fattyfoopa.

Aw thanks :3 Yeah I think my color usage might be my strong point, heh. The creations are a bit weird, I agree with you there.. and the one I'm about to attach is no different ;P numnumz.

Haha thank you, I'm not that great at critter design, but I'm trying to work on it ;D

Always appreciated ;D

I think your use of colours is brilliant and super-effective, but certain aspects of your character dimensions could be improved.

Yeah as I mentioned above, I believe my coloring is one of my better skills, still working on critter design :)

In the first image, the character fits in well with the rest of the picture. It doesn't look like the creature is cartoon 3D (example The Simpsons), but rather cartoon 2D (example Southpark) (I am just making these terms up because it helps me explain better).

Yeah does seem pretty flat. I'm a big fan of Murakami so perhaps his superflat style rubbed off on me a little bit?

However in the last image where you have the group of characters, it looks live you've tried to give them a bit of depth but it doesn't really work. They are also lacking detail, and the cat just looks bad.

Yeah that was the first thing I had really done with this new texture style thing I was playing around with, heh.

I haven't ever tried to be critical before but I hope you find my criticism constructive ;)

I do, much appreciated!

Nono, thank YOU ;D

The colors were just flash. A lot of the textures I made, but some of them came from CGtextures.com

Okay so, I made a news post about this a little while ago, but it took a week to get up on the site, but my shirt is up and ready for voting. Click here to view Woolly Whispers. If you could vote for me, and leave a comment, that would be superb, but I don't want to force you into doing something you don't want to do ;D A preview image has been posted below.

I need to get back into illustrating.. that and animating, bah!

Nice job BH.

I really like the background work, seems as if you put as much in the background as if you do the foreground, keep it up.

I love your work. The clean lines and very pure, eccentric are really appealing and eye catching. Besides that your characters are really lovable. :'D

Check out Rutgers stuff. It's also very CampNorthy and similar to yours.
