pencil panel

I'm at work on a lot of different projects right now (predominantly JAZAM! vol. 5 and my BA thesis), but can't really show a lot yet. One thing I can share right now is this pencil panel from a short comic I'm currently working on. It's an interesting project but I'm not gonna tell you yet what it is... :)

new music + radio interview

Even though this blog is mostly meant to showcase my cartooning and my art and design work, I like to occasionally post some updates about my musical pursuits. I'm the lead singer of the alternative rock band Affection Play and we've recently uploaded two of our songs to our MySpace site. They aren't exactly our newest songs, but they're the only ones we recorded in studio quality so far.

In addition to that, we had a radio interview on the small Munich-based station Radio Feierwerk a couple of weeks ago, which is also on MySpace.

Listen to all of those things HERE, if you're interested.

Comicstars

Two of my comics are now available on Comicstars.de, an interesting portal for digital comics.

The first one is "Rumpel Styler" from 2006, my contribution to the very first volume of JAZAM!, which has been out of print for a while. This one's for free.

READ IT HERE

The other one is Hipsters vs. Monsters, my minicomic from last year. This one's gonna set you back 89 ct., which is a bargain if you ask me.

BUY IT HERE

I still have a couple of the printed ones left, if anyone's interested. Just order them by e-mail.

2-page preview from "Hipsters vs. Zombies"

These are two of the nine comic pages of the quasi-sequel to "Hipsters vs. Monsters". The new story ist going to be published in JAZAM! vol. 5 (theme: "Night Life") in june. I'm almost finished with the comic, working on the final page right now.

Zombies!

I'm working on a sequel to my mini comic "Hipsters vs. Monsters", which will be published as a 9-page comic in JAZAM! vol. 5, due out in june 2010. The above is a little teaser image.

Sam

Lots of self portraits around here lately. About time I drew someone else again! Like, for example, a character from one of my favourite movies...

This is Sam Lowry from Brazil:


And the pencil sketch:

more presents

These two were also christmas presents. One for my mother:

And one for my flat mates:

The pencil sketch for the latter one:

Happy new year, everyone!

christmas present

I drew this one as a christmas present for my little sister Serafine. That's me and her.

Merry Christmas!

Jeffrey

Another movie character portrait. This one's from Blue Velvet.

International Self Portrait Day 2009

Since today is International Self Portrait Day, I sharpened my pencil and scribbled this:

Ellen

The fourth entry in my movie-themed illustration series. This time, Alien.

Pencil sketch:

new life drawings

After a long break, I scanned some life drawings again. These nudes are from the first two classes of the current semester (which is my last, actually):



The first three poses were 1 minute, the other two 10 min.

Travis

The third illustration in a series of character portraits from some of my favourite movies. Today: Taxi Driver.

The pencil sketch for this one:

Alex

The second piece in a series of character portraits from some of my favourite movies. This time: A Clockwork Orange.

Pencil sketches for both illus:

Jake

J. J. Gittes, the main character of Chinatown, one of my favourite movies. I rewatched it the other day and felt the urge to draw this character.
