Inked up character design sketch from a story idea I'm working up :) He's a regular fella that ends up in space #illustration #storyart #characterdesign #comicart #graphicnovel #ink #art #kidlit #scifi #kidlitart #sketch

From the sketchpad as this popped into my head. When we were at school all science teachers (and science presenters on TV) were like this: great hair, massively over enthusiastic and with really long arms :) #illustration #characterdesign #pencilart #comic #comicart #kidlitart #sketchbook #funny

Haven’t thought of a name yet, so let’s call him/her the Space alien, from space :) He’s come a long way to find a friend #illustration #childrensbookillustration #kidlitart #art #comicart #characterdesign #funny #cute

Just realised I’d recorded an inking process vid of my Neville with a Mandrake picture :) I still do most things pencil first, many, many times till I’m happy with it, then ink it up #illustration #art #comicart #funny #sketch #ink #harrypotter #kidlitart #artvideo

I really like how this came out... I felt the need to draw the scene where Neville pulls a screaming Mandrake out of a plant pot - I'm imagining it looked something like this :) #illustration #art #pencilart #sketch #comicart #funny #kidlitart #cartoon #sketchbook #harrypotter

Me and my little boy have been reading The Bad Guys books and they are epic. Think I had that in mind while sketching this, teenage shark :) #illustration #comicart #comic #art #pencilart #pencilsketch #sketch #kidlitart #funny #characterdesign #sketchbook

A quick drawing from life from yesterday's swimming lessons. Swimming teachers make the best shapes when crouching down to the water. Pretty happy with the arms, hands and the shoulder line #illustration #pencilart #lifedrawing #drawingfromlife #sketch #art #pencilsketch

I will quite happily draw on anything... But some things in life just cry out to be drawn on. This would make a good animation And it's a good way to make your children laugh :) #illustration #comicart #drawing #drawingoneggs #funny #characterdesign

From today's sketchpad - ace photographer Colin Creavy from the Harry Potter books. The minor characters are the most fun to draw :) #illustration #pencilart #sketchbook #sketch #pencil #kidlitart #characterdesign #harrypotter

These story ideas pop into my head and if they make me laugh I sketch them up :) A shark with armbands learning to swim. I might have to do a colour version for next months #kidlitartpostcard :) #illustration #art #characterdesign #kidlitart #shark #funny

I made this #kidlitartpostcard as it's officially summer...and naturally it's rained all day. But hi, I'm Simon an illustrator, character designer and writer from the UK I'm looking for a friendly agent so I can do more of this :) simoncredland.myportfolio.com #illustration

We went to see the new Lilo and Stitch film at the weekend - it's beautifully done with bags of emotion. My take on Stitch when he asks 'is Stitch bad?' #illustration #sketchbook #pencilart #liloandstitch #kidlitart #art
