4. These are absolutely fantastic!

   1. Are you going to sell any of them as prints? I’d love to grab a few.

      1. Thanks Ciaran… I’m thinking about doing a few limited run screenprints but not sure which ones to do!

5. Ah! They’re wonderful! I really love your first one, saying “Jesus” backwards and all.

   I’d probably buy the “Mysterious case of the hairy shapes.” It’s intriguing, I imagine a story behind the enigma.

   1. Hi Shannon, thanks for the comment… I like the Jesus one too… still makes me smile! 🙂

6. Great! I love your work!
   Will come back and check up your new wk!

7. Really fresh stuff ! Loving it. Keep up the good work ! : )

   1. Thanks for the comments!! They are a few of my favourites as well 🙂

9. hey ben, great concept and fantastic pics. if you do print them let me know as there are a few i would love to grab!

   1. Thanks Sal, I think I might start offering limited run prints… check back soon!

10. Hi Ben just checked back in to see how the panic is going and love what i see. If you do decide to print some I know where I may do some Christmas shopping,between the t-shirts and prints i may cover a few gifts ideas. Thank mate

    1. Thanks Pauls! Let me know which ones you like and Ill get them setup for you to be able to purchase prints from over at http://www.redbubble.com/people/creativepanic

11. Just looked at this page in its entirety and I’ve been re-inspired to carry on with #oneaday – you’ve created SO much this year!

12. Really inspiring work! Do these start as sketching in a sketchbook? if so are you just scanning them in to photoshop for editing? the one with the “50” drawn on a crinkled piece of paper is particularly nice. how did you do that?

    1. Hi Jean, thanks for the comment! All the illustrations, apart from where I’ve said they are markers and ink are done in illustrator cs4. As I’m doing one a day I have to try and get them done quickly… (I have a day job too!). I kind of mentally draw something during the day then get it drawn in illustrator that night. After drawing and coloring I take the piece into photoshop for some texturing, hence the crumbed paper on “50” 🙂

       I also use a wacom board for all the digital illustrations.

13. Cool art thanks for sharing! Have you been able to get them published anywhere?

14. These are awesome! I especially like the turtle, octopus, and whale — wonderful illustrations. Great job on drawing nearly 200 illustrations — and good luck with reaching your goal!

15. these are amazing!:D I was wondering what wacom tablet do you use?

    1. Hi Lianne,

       I use a Wacom Intuos 3 tablet… it is a little bit old but still does a good job.

       Cheers
       Ben

       1. thanks ben:] cos i’m planning to buy a tablet but it’ll be my 1st one so i don’t have an experience in using tablets. does it really make a difference? is it really like drawing normally (just like on paper without pixelated lines?) sorry for the questions. this’ll be my last thanks Cheers:D

16. Very beautiful, Me Gusta!

    1. Su comentario me gusta! 🙂

17. These are awesome. I wish I could illustrate like that. Is this free-hand or do you use a computer program?

    1. Hey Hamilton, all my illustration unless otherwise stated are one in Abobe Illustrator with a Wacom board…. so kind of freehand but digital at the same time. Easier to fix mistakes too 🙂

18. The feet in water, yellow leaf are wonderful. All illustrations are really awesome
    !

    1. Thanks!! 🙂

19. I’m proud of you! such hard work and amazing illustrations, every one of them exude your personality, keep going!

20. Awsome!

21. Wow, I really enjoyed looking at these!

22. Hi Ben! These are fantastic…it’s a little peek into a creatives mind! Love the feet in water, all the skulls and the skeletons in headware…and and and..hahah! You’ve got a great style. Love seeing them all on one page, that was a brilliant additive…makes it for me! S

23. […] Outpourings;  I have a new design-blog favourite! The beautiful, smart and humourous one-a-day-project drawings by Ben Hood are a inspiring […]

24. what, do get up a 4? No idea where you have the time for these awesome creations buddy, but I’m coming to you for more wine label designs in the future….

    1. Ha! Thanks Druser! 🙂

25. Wow! I love it 😉

26. What great illustrations! I think they’d make a very interesting story book for children with discerning taste. It’s a good body of work that’s come out of your discipline – thanks for sharing.

27. Maravilloso! Thanks for sharing

28. Woah man…
    Speechless but I’ll try to find some words.
    Damn I LOOOOVE your drawings. They’re just AMAZING!!!
    Specially the Skull dudes serie.
    KEEP UP THE WAY EXCELLENT WORK and the best to you for 2012.

29. These are FAB!!!!!!

    Great fun to look at 🙂

30. Nice work, the jesus one made me chuckle. 🙂

31. These are amazing!! Love your work.

32. Wowowowow, your art. Do you have any advice for a hopeful artist?

33. Your work is amazing. Is it all the work of just yourself, and not a ‘team’? (from elsewhere on your blog I get that impression it’s just you). The work is so varied and diverse, especially seeing as almost all done with a Wacom tablet. I am now a big fan.

34. I love these! Brilliant- and the sheer amount there too. Incredible. ^^

35. So cool!
    Amazing!
