Nick Park from Aardman

Well now, I found this old press cutting tonight of when Calvin had an article written about him in the Sunday Post whilst he was still at Primary school. Oscar winner Nick Park from Aardman bigging up Calvin's work is pretty smooth!

Wallace & Gromit – and Feathers McGraw

Creative weekend for Calvin as he's made Wallace, Gromit, Feathers McGraw and Shaun the Sheep.

Well done!

Shaun the Sheep

As a request, Calvin has made Shaun the Sheep for Stevie Stewart.

More Wallace & Gromit models

Calvin's made some more Aardman characters to take in to his art class at school this morning.

Gromit

That's Gromit done now too.

Feathers McGraw

And another one.

Wallace and Gromit

Calvin's watching The Wrong Trousers (again) and decided to make Wallace.

Warthog

Following on from making Pumba the other day, Calvin has decided to make a more life like warthog. He used his Lion King extras DVD for his reference and is making a pretty good job of his new model.

Bitzer Aardman model.

Here's Calvin's Bitzer. He's the dog from Aardman's Shaun the Sheep. Calvin has entered it into a competition on the Shaun website and also the Wallace and Gromit site too.

The model he's made even has a tiny wee clip board with a picture of a sheep on it and he's got a pencil in his other hand.

Calvin wins a Shaun The Sheep prize.

Calvin recently won a prize on the Shaun the Sheep website. He made a cool Shaun that I uploaded for him and he won a signed Aardman certificate, a Shaun DVD and got a really nice wee note complimenting him on his models that are on this blog. He's delighted and has now mounted them and hung them on his wall in his bedroom.

He's now made a Bitzer (the dog from Shaun the Sheep) that he wants to enter in another competition. I'll upload pics when he's finished.
