To get into the practice of drawing footballers for the series, I did some some illustrations of Manchester United footballers for fun a few months back if you want to check them out.
A preview of 'Football Factor', the children's book series I'm the illustrator for can be found in Wayland Books catalogue for 2013. Below is an extract featuring some of the illustrations I've already completed. Football Factor is written by Alan Durant and will be published by Wayland Books later this year. Details of all their children's book publications for 2013 can be found in their catalogue at the bottom of their home page.

A copy of my Wayne Rooney illustration was posted on the Business Boom website just before Christmas, along with a profile and a few details of upcoming work.
There may be some A3 size prints of the non-Xmas version still available for sale in Manchester at the Grumpy Shop just off Deansgate. Grumpy provide resource centres open to trainers, artists, carers, parents, playworkers, students, voluntary, non-voluntary groups, schools and anyone who works with or cares for children and young people. The shop sells a range of prints and cards by local artists and illustrators. Here's some drawings of the second best football team in Manchester - after FC United of course!
Still some work to do on composition, colouring and shading. Might do a limited run of cards and prints to see if there is a market out there for them. |
