more of them because i like drawing them #heavypaint #myart

kind of eyestrain-y but ive been thinking about my tyne tees tv logo character more than i should today. i hope michelle lyons doesnt mind that i got the text off a tumblr account archiving her writing ...

early valentines art because right now ive been thinking too much about how channel and grampian are the most geographically distant of itv companies. also i think my characters for them look cute together : )

NEW THEY NEW THEY IM SO HAPPY youtu.be/Io63tR8u5_4

the most hypersecific parody of singing cows ever made. this is probably nonsensical to those who actually grew up on regional itv (or nonsensical in general) but i had fun

had this idea when i realized that the release of tmbg's flood and tyne tees's first day of broadcasting occured on the same day*. so thats fun *not the same year of course. quite obvious but i like meaninglessly elaborating on things

today is tww's birthday ! oh joyous day ! background is based on white music by xtc (because swindon is tww territory, maybe? or i just listened to it while making it who knows)

the recent map men book just reminded me of the existance of this video. i know the book mentions the more well known video (seen here: youtu.be/nieNjGjjK_I) but i might actually prefer the one with the jackets (mostly because i REALLY need those jackets)

ive been enjoying the map men book so far : ) top notch work from @jayforeman.bsky.social and @markcooperjones.bsky.social (and yes, the bookmark placement was intentional)

i return with more itv related art. well, in the abstract sense maybe...

#itv70tember day 30: free day! ending the month with a massive blunder as i had to repost this because i forgot someone important ! but nonetheless it was a wonderful month overall. so yay !

#itv70tember day 29: local/favorite im not from britian so i dont have a local itv company to draw today... but i do have favorites ! ive just found out that i find the "minnow" companies more interesting than most : ) so i thought "why not do something experimental this time?"

if you think hard enough, these two could be oscar puffin and gus honeybun

#itv70tember day 28: citv i grew up with pocoyo so of course i kinda had to feature him here since hes technically from citv. i really had fun with this one ! especially with shoehorning bits from past citv logos on the other character itself

#itv70tember day 27: gmtv one of those days where im just mucking around effects and having fun. i did sorta base the couch and background from their later set design? but other than that i just kinda wanted to do something a bit more garish today

#itv70tember day 26: tv-am bit eyestrain-y this one! anyway this one's based on wacaday and has pinky punky on it! oh how i would love to hit random people with a pink foam mallet...

the new @transdiffusion.org stuff has arrived at my international doorstep and it was really really good as always :D ! gus seemed to really like the ones he was featured in

#itv70tember day 25: granada kinda based on the coronation street title sequence, this one. mostly done as (digital) charcoal practice but still pretty fun

#itv70tember day 24: atv it may not be a saturday but it might be tiswas day ! i sure love messy lines 😁😁😁 though maybe i shouldve added more pie and explosions...

#itv70tember day 23: abc today's piece is brought to you by the avengers and the colors primary

#itv70tember day 22: rediffusion ykknow what? this warrants an #itv70 tag too even if this was obviously done in a very late night rush. the "-starts here" thing i got from ready steady go :^) wouldve gotten more visual cues from it but i guess that ddint happen.

i dont have anything for today's #itv70tember yet but im posing this rn just in case i cant do it today. really really good video this one ! youtu.be/yeguNKG4SLY

#itv70tember day 21: stv/scottish tv comparing their past branding to their branding now is very fun! i hope this doesnt come across as going against their modern branding (+ maybe portraying the other bit as a curious abstract blob isnt helping my case .. . maybe its a vision of the future?)

#itv70tember day 20: tww i knowww i knowwww old grainy footage is not supposed to scary but i find the fact that the very last thing tww broadcasted is the camera panning to the fire exit sign... tis a bit interesting to me. also i just love mucking around with effects.

#itv70tember day 19: southern outfit's based on worzel gummidge. this one ended up with a more melancholic vibe than i first started. stars are cool !

#itv70tember day 18: tyne tees i think i took a bit of neon inspiration from the tube title sequence? but this one is just moreso just me mucking around with the light brush. (repost because i forgot the hashtag for some reason...)

bluesky i need an edit button so bad 💔💔💔 i cant keep making all these ridiculous typos

#itv70tember day 17: anglia really wanted to this one with irl charcoals, but i sadly lack them : ( theres SO MUCH i wanted to do for this one, but i settled on their first b&w ident because of the wonderful lighting

#itv70tember day 16: ulster tv/utv and now on the utv: more rushed out shapes ! ive always admired how they kept in vision continuity until the 2010s : )

#itv70tember day 15: westward this was done in a rush ! but i think the scrappyness adds to the supposed charm. check out gus honeybun over there !

#itv70tember day 14: border what a delay! i had to finish this by today! yippie kay yay! i have nothing else to say!

#itv70tember day 13: grampian this one features james the cat because i find him very cute and wonderful even though ive yet to watch his source material in full : ) the few bits that ive seen had a strange dreamlike quality to them

#itv70tember day 12: channel tv the wonderous birthday slot featuring the one and only oscar puffin ! i kinda just finished this one in a rush but nonetheless i had fun with it, especially with the birthday cards

#itv70tember day 11: teledu cymru/wwn this might (keyword:might) be the last one i post on the specific day because college is fun and loves to give me 3 dozen homeworks. the four bars in the bg is a very very vague reference to ITSWW because it used the teledu cymru name.

#itv70tember day 10: htv 1/3 of the way through now... this one is vaguely based on children of the stoens since ive watched it recently. the show's pretty good in my opinion ! sure, the soundtrack and its usage is a bit of an aquired taste but i dig it nonetheless.

#itv70tember day 9: yorkshire i <3333 dusty bin even though 3-2-1's game mechanics is very confusing to me. the grey canister's a very vague reference to the itv archive since its in leeds

#itv70tember day 8: thames i have been looping the sweeney intro music recently... probably explains why this one is all blue

#itv70tember day 7: lwt while it may not be obvious, this is based on one of the ident gags done on end of part one! most specifically, the one where the lwt ribbon falls down and crashes. tried to think of what happened immidiately after for this one

#itv70tember day 6: tsw bit silly to make "thats my dog" to be the partial inspo for this one. i guess i just like dogs

#itv70tember day 5: tvs you could probably guess what this one is based on... i had many ideas on which show i should do for tvs before settling with this one. as the youngin that i am, i grew up with the more recent disney version so maybe i just felt like drawing something familiar to me.

#itv70tember day 4: central this one's vaguely based on bullseye! i really like the mascot for this show :^]

#itv70tember day 3: westcountry a lot of these are also just me messing around with procreate. ive never really tried it until this month, so yeah! theres not much to say about westcountry. uhm... i did like how their ident works so theres a lot of variants!

#itv70tember day 2: meridian most of the drawings ive done for this month are vaguely based on their shows (or at least, the show's visuals), and zzzap! kinda stood out to me. i had fun with this one : )

#itv70tember day 1: carlton everyone else has said what i think about carlton as a company, but i actually kinda think their idents are kinda interesting

Here comes Puffin! 😀😍🐦 #Birds 🪶

now might also be a good time to announce that ill be doing a bit of an inktober style event to celebrate itv's 70th anniversary! tis called #itv70tember & ill probably post art for each day, though other people can do their own thing (or even just talk about the specific topic for each day) too

i should post my art stuff here more (or actually post here more in general). anyway today i just painted the 1996 lwt logo :)

Didn't need a jingle but I added one anyway because I'm feeling nice today

Coming soon from Transdiffusion Print! A 180+page softback book digesting all the ITA/IBA yearbooks' coverage of ITV programmes for children 1963-88. Plus! Stickers! Ephemera reprints! A bookmark that's also a fridge magnet somehow! Stay tuned!

heard about the new gus honeybun news. it finally motivated me to finish this fellow that ive been procrastinating on for months now. now i have my own gus !
