The story…

Scrutineer's is a den in Brighton, where the inhabitants muck about with art stuff. They produce proper grown-up work > websites, books, animations, printed brochures etcetera, etcetera. They have their thumbs in many pies. Thankfully. They also waste vast amounts of time doing equally proper stuff for no financial gain whatsoever.

The End.

Search Me. Go on.
