Thanks!

Maybe your PM box is cleared by now, in any event I would like to pick your brain about your work. Love the vector furniture on your site, and curious to know how you achieve the effect you do, if you have MSN add me sometime; kisstheshadow@hotmail.com

Cheers!

Hahaha, those are looking great! You ARE good! Some of them look kinda familiar though.

Cheers dude!

Yeah, I guess that's the nature of cartooning though... its not always easy coming up with stuff that doesn't look like something else. As soon as I drew the rocket dude, I was instantly reminded of Jimmy Neutron.

Feel more than free to draw some comparisons, just so I know.

Man they are sexy! Do you take an illustration course at university? I know my mate can design characters like that, the style of my mates reminds me of 123klan, as some of yours do a bit.

Nah, but I am currently studying Multimedia. I just drew a lot up till the age of 15, and just started back from a 5 odd year layoff, so still finding my feet.

Whats this 123klan? Always interested to check out other stuff!

Nice, i have finished a graphic design course a few year ago, im now doing multimedia aswell, i dont seem to be getting anywhere though.

www.123klan.com - its urban art, its not exactly like yours but similar. They are ace, its a company that do graffiti and get paid plus do illustration like characters etc, defiantly one of my favourite artists
