KEVIN LEE BENNETT

Hi there, my name is Kevin Lee Bennett, I’m a Birmingham born Artist, and I’ve been drawing since I was a little baby boy. The talent that I’ve been blessed with has allowed me to illustrate and design for various companies. Companies such as: Bacardi, BBC, Top Banana, Second Home Productions, Laughing Gravy Design. I have also had the chance to illustrate in comic books alongside great comic book Artists like: Hunt Emerson, John McCrea and James Hodgkins and by the way they also taught me certain comic book drawing techniques, which helped me to develop my own style. My main influences that have inspired me through the years vary from Artist such as: Boris Vallejo (Fantasy Artist), Bob Wakelin (video games and comic book Artist), Ron Cobb (concept and Fantasy Artist) and there’s many more I could mention. I am also influenced by cartoon animation, especially Japanese animation, animation such as: Battle Of The Planets, Akira, Ghost In The Shell, Dragon ball-Z, He-Man, The Space Sentinels and also Walt Disney cartoons. I have a love for these cartoons as they had a big effect on me and played a major part in my style and creativity. Even the movies helped to shape the style I posses’ today (mainly old school movies though) movies like: Star Wars, Blade Runner, Alien 1 and 2 and stylish films like Minority Report and the Mission Impossible movies. Well I hope you’ve got a brief idea of what makes me tick, hope you all enjoy looking and collecting my comics, enjoy and thank you for your support. Kevin Lee Bennett
