Merry Christmas you guys!

A looong running family tradition is these silly illustrated Christmas cards I make for my family. Everybody is home for Christmas this year wich is huge for us! We will also celebrate that this is the second time we kids have lederhosen on the Christmas card.  

We also took this years card into the future by placing a QR code on it and showing a short making of video. I'll post it here as well!

Hope you've been nice this year and get what you deserve!

Pebble Universe!

 Oh my! Strange things are happening in Pebble Universe. I have the great joy of working on this smartphone and tablet game soon to be released. The game is brought by the fresh studio Itatake and produced by Hello There. Both studios from Gothenburg.




A43

I posted a photo a while back showing a illustration I did for A.FortyThree. Here are some more of them. All in all there will be three big group illustrations and six smaller ones like these. Happy hunting.

Oh no, he's getting rigged!

Frank has gone into the darkest corner of all 3D animation, the rigging. He's hair will have to wait for now. A jungle of joints weights and weird tags await. Makes my hands sweat a little.

Face

Here's a glimpse at Franks fresh head! The mesh is pretty much finished but it still needs some all the textures, eyebrows and a mighty skipper's beard.

How do you like your new dimension, Frank?

Yes, Frank is slowly getting in to the third dimension. It's indeed awesome to see something 2D get 3D. I love it.


A43 is King

Some illustrations from way back is starting to emerge in media. Got this pic from a friend back home. It's taken from King and the advert is for A.FortyThree. You can also see that this A43 shirt goes great with bananas, good news.

Hello Frank!

Just started up the final year here in Newcastle. I'm very exited to get a full year to work on one animation. And even though there are many small assignments along the way I have big hopes for this little animation. Ill try to keep the blog up to date to where I'm at in the process. So far the script is as good as done and currently sketching up the main character. I him Frank. He's named after my very first nephew who was born about the same time as my Frank. You can clearly see the the resemblance.

A new mix

For the summers second exhibition I tried out a new mix of media. This is a water based oil and indian inc on paper. I think they melted together in a very nice way. Thank you all for coming to the exhibitions this summer. It's been a bliss!

Summer - a time to say goodbye

Had the pleasure of waving good buy to a lot of illustrations the other week. A great vernissage and a few weeks later only a handful of the illustrations I sent away made their way home. Than you all for a great time! If you never got the chance to visit there's a new chance in a couple of weeks.

Good old stuff

An old illustration I did after seeing Michael Sudok De Wit's fantastic animation "Father and Daughter". I'm stunned by it every time. So... why are you still here? Go see it here and get inspired!

A bad dressed and loud mob

Boys, boys, keep it down. There's so many reasons to be merry. The old Batman series is back on TV for example. That's great! Pow, the red bat-phone and the boy wonder, you know!

Portraits

Doing some experimentation with a sort of vintage photo style. Working with water based oils on wet paper to give an overall blurry feel. I sort of like it where it's heading.

Dudes.

Taking a day to sketch some ideas for this summers exhibitions. Some times when I try to get some good work done all I get is weird dudes. I think I need to get them out of my system before some serious work can be done. I cant help but wonder though.,who are all these people?

Stained glass

I've been having a "stined glass look-alike" series of illustrations going for the Swedish church. Here are a few examples.

Oil and inc

Made these illustrations for a fanzine project back home. Might also be used at a exhibition this summer.


Right there it was so obvious, he had no end.

A very short animation

I made a tiny animation to the E4 stinger competition. I posted a sneek preview screen a few posts back and this is how it turned out. Now I just have to keep my fingers crossed. My English fingers that is. If I would cross my swedish fingers I would be lying. Back home I'll hold my thumbs.

WWII characters

I'm in the process of adding some random stuff to my character design portfolio. I'm deep into "The Pacific" at the moment so first out where some WWII characters. I used a random word generator to give the guys some background. If you find yourself with some odd words that you think deserve to be visualized. Be sure to let me know.
