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.

Great plugin! Would love to see tools like this in the original software. Well done Christine Houle and Matthieu Fiorilli!

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!
