Here, there and (nearly) everywhere


Gosh that month went by quite quick. Sorry for the lack of posting recently, we've been very busy at Monster Riot HQ and unfortunately the blog has suffered. We'll make more of an effort from now on, we promise! So what have we been up to to make us this busy? Well I have to say September was a very good month for us and we were lucky enough to start getting blogged about and even appearing in the exposure section of this month's Computer Arts magazine. It went on sale in the UK on the 29th September so it will be in the shops for a few more weeks if you want to grab yourself a copy.

As I mentioned we also had the privilege of getting to do a number of interviews and were also blogged about on certain websites. The first one was for the lovely people at Pistache Moustache, and I have to say their questions have been the best so far! If you fancy a read you can see it in all it's glory here. Then there was the awesome inkygoodness team you made us featured artists on their blog, check out the post here. And that's not all, our two little rabbits even got in on the action by being part of a studio interview for lovely Meg and Tuesday at Studio Sweet Studio. You can see pictures of the fluffy things and where we do our work here.

We have also started up a new Society 6 account where you can grab yourself some select prints. Check out the shop here to see what we have on offer.

Phew! So that's you all updated now. We'll be posting some new illustration later in the week. Cheerio for now!

rabbit rabbit


Hello all!

I hope you have had a chance to look around our new site, if not have a look now (go on it won't hurt!). We have just put up our rabbit rabbit illustration on Threadless for their latest design challenge 'We love totes'. Have a look here and please vote if you can! Apart from that we're working on new illustrations and a new plush which will appear here and on the new site over the next couple of weeks!

We have also just had our first official interview too! The lovely Amy from Pikaland has written a piece about us, the new website and our work for the Pikaland blog. If you fancy a read and a chance to get to know a bit more about us have a lookie here!

Our shiny new website


We're proud to present our brand new website. We were well overdue a new one so here it is. We now have a shop and there's actually things to buy in it (fantastic!). We'll be updating the site regularly so make sure to visit it now and again (websites do tend to get lonely if you don't). So please take a look and let us know what you think!

Astro dogs


Oops it's been quite a while since our last post - sorry about that! We've been very busy and hopefully over the next few weeks we'll start posting all the recent work we've been doing.

To start things off, here's an illustration for the SPACE exhibition, which will be part of the Cardiff Design Festival in October. We thought we'd do some dogs in space, and of course they still love to smell each others butts in zero gravity.
