The second EK art series, based on a rough body of work created during a several year period of overwork, stress, and a terminal illness in the family. These rough pieces were then reworked and completed in an attempt to provide a sense of closure and meaning to these “lost years”. A selection of pieces from this series are presented here, and the entire series is collected in the art book, EK2 - The Lost Years, available from Design Studio Press.
Materials for a successful KickStarter project that saw the production of a fully assembled, fully painted 1/8th scale resin EK figure called The Traveller. A model kit version of the figure was produced as well, along with a number of other pledge rewards, including a 56 page art book, art cards, prints and an embroidered flight patch. The KickStarter was funded in late 2021 and the statues and other rewards were delivered in the spring and summer of 2022. Sculpted by Leo Haslam and produced by Ax2 Limited.
The final collaboration with model makers Industria Mechanika and 3D modeller Gene Campbell. The Duchess was a large 1/6th scale resin model kit designed to be a companion piece to the Dystopic kit. The large size and some of the design elements caused some production issues and protracted the development phase, but the first edition of the Duchess was released in early 2019, with a smaller second edition following soon after.

The second collaboration with model makers Industria Mechanika and 3D modeller Gene Campbell. This project saw the production of three highly detailed 1/8 scale resin model kits. Gene expertly modelled the figures from simple turnarounds and the master printing was handled by Des at Ownage. These kits were very popular, going through many editions, with Cosmonaut 02 and 03 selling especially well. All three kits remained in production until the summer of 2021 when Industria Mechanika ceased production of physical model kits.

The first collaboration with model kit makers Industria Mechanika and Vancouver based 3D modeller Gene Campbell. A slightly modified version of the piece "Dystopic" from the EK Series was modelled by Gene then 3D printed by Desmoda at Ownage. From this master print the large 1/6th scale resin kits were cast. This kit proved to be very popular and went through many editions over several years. It was also featured in several model kit magazines and on an episode of Adam Savage’s Tested. Production ended in the summer of 2021 when Industria Mechanika ceased producing physical model kits.

A selection of pieces from the Entartete Kunst series, a personal project undertaken to dispel certain artistic biases and to get back to my creative roots after years of focusing on commercial work. Pieces from this series have been featured on book and magazine covers, album covers, snowboard graphics, made into resin model kits and collected in the art book Born In Concrete: The EK Series, published by Design Studio Press.
