Artisan Blacksmithing: November 2014
http://i-am-an-artisan.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, 29 November 2014. Lamb's House and Culross projects. Here are the 'small' gates (which to a small person like myself are still pretty big). And here are a few photographs of the bigger gates. So here are the medlar fruits being made (they were welded together by Jim). And here are some photographs of the finished gates. Here's a close up of the latch. Jim likes to make sure that the latches on all of his gates fit in with the design so they don't interfere with the overall aesthetic. I also got...

Glen McBeth Illustration: History Man
http://glenmcbeth.blogspot.com/2013/11/history-man.html
Monday, 25 November 2013. I've not posted my BBC History Illustrations for a while. Still having fun with them! 1 'Swein Forkbeard' - Illustrating the first viking king of Britain. I tried a quick linocut for a change for this one, still meaning to do my regular style for the final, but the client liked it and went with it! 2 'Napolean Submarine' - Illustrating the supposed plan to rescue Napolean from St Helena by means of a new fangled submarine. Loved trying to mimic an old plan/drawing for this.

Glen McBeth Illustration: Reclining Nude Lion
http://glenmcbeth.blogspot.com/2012/10/tonights-illo-finished-and-sent-off-at.html
Tuesday, 9 October 2012. Tonight's illo finished and sent off at 11pm for tomorrow's deadline. A very odd offering even by my standards! The article mentions the fact that 'Passant Gaurdant' lions in heraldry were known as 'leopards'. The small incidental I based my illo on was about a heraldic painter (back in the day) that visited a real lion for the first time in a zoo and remarked that this couldn't be a lion as he had painted many in his career and they definitely didn't look like that!

Glen McBeth Illustration: Hair Raising Money
http://glenmcbeth.blogspot.com/2012/09/hair-raising-money.html
Monday, 24 September 2012. My hair raising exhibition as part of the Peebles Art Festival. I was delighted that my wee heids raised £367 for a worthy charity. The idea was to encourage everyone who got a haircut at the venue (as it was in a gents hairdresser) to buy a heid and stick a clipping of their hair on the heid. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Glen McBeth Illustration: Going Dutch
http://glenmcbeth.blogspot.com/2013/06/going-dutch.html
Wednesday, 19 June 2013. Another pencil one for BBC History. I'm liking this technique although it does take a lot more time. I love using the layers in photoshop to add the colour but also to colour the pencil lines. This one illustrates the saying 'Dutch Courage' which meant having a wee drinky before battle (usually gin). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Latest news, roughs, pics and doodles.

Glen McBeth Illustration: 'Like' a lot
http://glenmcbeth.blogspot.com/2013/06/like-lot.html
Monday, 17 June 2013. This old pic seems to have found its way onto a science facebook page. So far it has received over 47,000 likes. That's a lot of people seeing my little joke! Originally the idea came up for one of the articles in the Wellcome Trust's 'Big Picture guide on evolution about Finches on different islands that had developed beaks that had adapted to the food sources available on each island.
