....and here is what I have been doing lately.

Sorry it has been a little quiet on here. I have been working the last few months at a new Job and I've not been working on as much art as I would have liked. But what I have been doing has been fun to work on.

I have since done my final poster for Monster-A-GoGo which was for their November show.


I have also worked on a few logo designs and ideas for a couple of local companies.

The Shakewell Tarts

I previously done a portrait of The Shakewell Tarts for a side show themed night ran by Monster-A-GoGo. They loved the work so much they asked me to design them something that they could have as a tattoo. At first my sketches where small, but when I was told how large I could go I let loose.

This is the result of a good 2 months procrastination and determination.

Mimi's Catering Website Logo

I was asked to create a logo for a small catering company from Glasgow (Scotland). They sent an idea they had drawn up and we used that as the template for the final design.

This was the idea they came with.


I took the circle and imagine it as a plate. Added some baking paraphernalia.


And then finally added a little gingham napkin and some blue tint to the text.


If you wish to have a company logo created by Things I Doodle get in touch via the facebook or via mikmcdade@gmail.com

8 bit Band Artwork - Heralds of Galactus

A little while ago I created a logo for a band called Heralds of Galactus. As the name may suggest they are a little geeky. So when they came to me asking for some artistic help in creating a flyer my mind went into over drive. They are huge gaming fans, so much so that the lead singer carries a nintendo blaster with him when he is onstage...I know awesome right??

Well this is what I came up with for them.


They loved it and we ended up running with the 8 bit idea and the resulting flyer looked pretty swish...If you ask me :)


If you are interested in hearing what these guys sound like pop over to their Facebook page and follow the links to everything they have online (which includes radio show appearances and live acoustic versions).
