maybe the final design for this one

I'm pretty happy with this one. the background on the previous images was too dominant. i toned it down and i think it works much better.

The Comic

I am having two weeks off from my work at nickelodeon. I am taking the time to rough out a comic. It is about my mandatory military service in germany. Here are two sketches of the "rough-version".

Design for a Tween-Tshirt

I reworked an earlier sketch for a T-shirt-design. here is the first version.

Jean-Paul Belmondo

An homage to a great actor.

My dad's 70th birthday poster

I have been working on a poster for my dad. His 70th birthday is coming up. He is a big fan of french action movies. I've inserted his picture into a poster from the film "Le Magnifique". It is a movie with Jean-Paul Belmondo. It is one of my favorite movies by the way. So please check it out when you come across a copy.

2009!!!

First Pin-up girl for 2009.

Vespa girl

Finally I've found some time to finish my "vespa-girl". Just have to add my signature and it's done.

Finished version

Added some shadow on the character and experimented with the background.

first clean-up stage

I started cleaning up the sketch. I still need to add some shadows on the character and the background needs some work. I might add some lights and some Gaussian blur.

out of my sketch-book

Here are some sketches I did yesterday. I might work on these in the next days in photoshop.

the third one out of the series

Maybe the last one out of this series. I prefer this one. She looks a little more sophisticated and i like the simple design.

more fun

I like the back-ground and added another character to it.

just for fun

Just had some fun inbetween some storyboard-panels.

Red and the Wolf

This is my next children-book project in the series of "Ella and the fairy-tales". This is an adaptation of the little red riding hood.

Comic rough

I am planing to finish a comic next year. It will be based on my experience during my obligatory military service in germany. I have slightly exaggerated the events, but most of the episodes have happened like this... here is a first rough-page.

Xmas-card

Here is a design for my christmas-cards this year. Ella loves to hold the dog's leach when she rides in the stroller.

Will Scream For Food

I have been busy in the last weeks, doing storyboard-tests for nickelodeon. Both tests have been appreciated and I will start work there in a few weeks. I'm looking forward to it. In the meantime I have been preparing some artwork for an upcoming art-fair in silverlake/LA. I will be selling some of my prints over there.
