It‘s been a few years since I drew a self portrait, so I thought it was time for a new one.

Podcast cover for Gert
My grandpa (writer and voice actor Gert Heidenreich) turned 80 a couple of weeks ago, so the family came together and recorded a special birthday podcast for him. The podcast isn't available to the public, but I can show you the cover illustration I drew:
New Ruthe backgrounds
Over the past few months, I got to once again contribute some background art for animated videos by Ralph Ruthe.
These were for the newest installment of "Biber & Baum":
And this one was for a new video based on the very funny HNO-WG audio play by Ralph and Haiko Hörnig:

Animated Movie Background Art
One of the backgrounds I painted for an animated movie I really hope we get to make:
It's for Ralph Ruthe's "HNO WG" movie (script by Ralph & Haiko Hörnig). We've been working on it (off and on) for 2+ years and now it seems very likely it will finally get the green light soon. Fingers crossed!

2024, Fuck Yeah!
A few weeks ago, I drew my annual illustration for Schlogger's "Fuck Yeah" calendar, and like last year, it again features some characters from my recent JAZAM! comic “Murki's Big Day”.
Here it is:
The calendar is out now and can be ordered from Kwimbi. There's also a cheaper, smaller version.

JAZAM! Coming of Age
After 17 years, 15 books, and various specials, we just put out our final volume of German indie comics anthology JAZAM!
We launched a successful Kickstarter campaign last fall and finally got the finished books from the printer's a week ago. I just finished shipping all of the rewards today.

I contributed a 25-page queer fantasy adventure/romance story called "Murkis großer Tag". Here's a 2-page spread from the comic:

2023, Fuck Yeah!
After taking a year off, I once again participated in Schlogger's annual "Fuck Yeah" calendar last year and created this illustration featuring some characters from my upcoming JAZAM! comic “Murki's Big Day”.
I just gave an interview (in German) to Comicgate about the illustration and my comic. (including a preview page from the comic and some work in progress scribbles for the illu)
The calendar is out now and can be ordered from Kwimbi.

Moga Mobo Musik
The guys who make German indie comic fanzine Moga Mobo have been at it for even longer than we have with JAZAM!, and they never seem to run out of ideas on how to keep their zine fresh. I've previously participated in their "Comic Clash" competition, but last year I was asked for the first time to contribute to one of their regular issues. For this one, they asked 100 artist to draw dialogue-free one-page comic versions of the "Greatest Hits" of rock & pop music. I chose to put pictures to Sia's "Chandelier", both because I love the song and because I wanted to add some newer music to the mix.
Here's my comic:
And here's the book:
It's available to buy at the Moga Mobo shop or for free at various conventions, etc.

Here are some screenshots with my background art:

Podcast cover: DOWNLOW'D
I've been a big fan of Downlow'd: The Rise and Fall of Harry Knowles & Aint-It-Cool News, a very interesting investigative podcast about the complicated history of movie news site Ain’t It Cool News, and was thrilled when I was asked to draw their mid-season cover art last April.
It's based on AICN's "Harry" cartoon character and the ending of King Kong:

Character design sketches
Roughly a year ago I was hired to draw some fun character designs for a thing that didn’t end up happening. These were supposed to be turned into a real prosthetic make-up/mask for a live-action tv ad, but it sadly never got that far.
The upside? I get to show them to you:
With these, we tried to go in a more robotic direction:

In 2021, I got to color a large section of a new comic/manga by the popular video game youtuber GermanLetsPlay, writer Haiko Hörnig & artist David Füleki. With flat support by Eve Jay.
