Meet Mister Whippet - the character

Originally the app was just going to have a stereotypical Ice Cream guy in the van, but being me I wanted to be a bit more creative and decided we should promote Yorkshire a bit more where we can, so came up with Mister Whippet. Obviously a spoof name of "Mister Whippy" but he's actually a dog! Arrrf! Arrrf! :D

Now to colour him up and add him to the screen...

mini CV - looking for creative work.

Aside from the apps I'm working on, I'm in need of some work. Anything creative considered. Please get in touch if you think you can use my services. Here's a mini CV showing some of the stuff I've done. I'm also considering full-time if the right job comes along where I can use my creative skills.

A little something for the hot weather? Game App intro screen.

Will update the pic later, when I've added Mister Whippet! ;)

Hardeep Singh Kohli Live

Last night I ventured out into Leeds with the missus to City Varieties to see Hardeep Singh Kohli's show.

It was a great night out, he's a really funny and interesting guy, and to top it off we tried a bowl of his delicious lamb curry. I really love Indian food and would eat it every night of the week if it was up to me!

After the show we met Hardeep and I gave him a cartoon I prepared earlier! We had a fantastic time and will definitely be going again the next time he's in town!
