Thanks to Laura Hudson from ComicAlliance, Periscope Studios got the opportunity to draw the
“12 Days of Christmas” Song, doing Illustrations with its lyrics until the 25th of December.
And because their hearts are deep and giving, they even let me participate in it!
The draft gave me “turtledoves”, which unknown to me at this point, is a real exiting species.

Not knowing this, sketches like these came out:



And then, with the help of Colleen Coover kicking my lazy butt around, this got made:

Hooray Turtles!

Hei Vancouver, it was nice meeting you:





I just realized that there are nearly no humans EVER in my photographs. WEIRD!
Vancouver was nice, the hostel was great and it was entertaining to talk to all those travelling folks.
Not so nice:
- very loud snoring Korean guy
- the US boarder people harassing and mind-raping me
- a big headache
But I now have a Work and Travel Visa and everything worked out great.
Also:
Thanks to the formidable Sam Bosma, I started reading the Hobbit again (the last time being more then 14 years ago). And I’m proud to say that I must have bought the best edition available, look at this cover:

Its fat Ricky Garvais!
I’m now off to work on a Illustration thing containing Ninjas, Turtles and some teeth!
Have a good week!

Hei,
the comic is finished, click on the picture to read it:

I´m not really happy with it (anymore) but whats done is done. I´m thinking about the next small story in that world and
I may try to go with another technique too.
To mix it up, something from the Sketchbook:

AND FUCK YEAH ITS FRIDAY!

I havent posted many Photos of Portland, so please have some:









I also had good training with Periscope buddy Ron Chan at ALIVE MMA
and
I´ve finished the six pages of the prologue. At least until everyone trashed it. I´m reworking the layout now (and actually adding panel borders) and should be able to post it on friday.
Have a good Thursday!

Hi!
A second busy week is over and it included:
- doing comic pages twice (see below)
- spending my first thanksgiving with the amazing Jeff Parker, his family and friends
- drinking weird cocktails and getting a headache from arcade games
- seeing THE ROAD and finding it only mediocre due to not enough risks and famous people
Here are the two versions of the comic i´m currently working on as a “test” for a bigger thing. Watercolors and then only digital




I like doing the watercolors more BUT the digital stuff flows way faster and is way way easier to handle.
Painting is new and actually thinking about color palette and “leading-the-eye” boggles my mind. Thats why the watercolors are a big blob of something instead of being highly readable.
I will post the whole 5 pages of the prologue next sunday!
Have a good week!
