It's been a while since I've posted anything, so here's a bit of this and a bit of that.
I wrote in an earlier post about the 24 paged comic 'Obsolete', which I've been working on for Nobrow Press for some time now. Well, it's all done and polished now and will be published in April. I'll do a post about it then, and add some of the pages.

And here's some random sketches, tests and a birthday present:







Here's a selection of some single page stories I worked on for the Danish book 'Pære-Perker-Dansk' which includes 9 short stories about immigrants, being an immigrant, feeling like you don't fit in, trying to fit in and prejudice in general.

Here's one of the many versions:

It must be quite cool being able to flash a huge chest tattoo of a ship.


Approximately a year ago, I did this drawing while eating soup after spending two whole days in an art museum in Petersburg. Those Russian painters are such amazing craftsmen!
