I was lucky to participate in a Vox Machina charity colouring book organized by fans from Critical Role.
A batch of character drawings for the German publisher Manga Cult (2018-2021).
A few examples of illustrations for KOSMOS Experimentierkasten Leuchtlabor and Kristall-Gigant (2018).
A few examples of illustrations for KOSMOS Experimentierkasten Mein erstes Entdecker-Set (2017).
Example of illustrations for KOSMOS Experimentierkasten Mein erstes Auto (Dezember 2016).
Illustrations for a KOSMOS Experimentierkasten Mein erstes Forscher-Set (September 2015).
So, I watched Voltron season 6. And it made me so emotional. I loved the animation and the storytelling, both have improved so much since the first episode.
To nobody’s surprise I felt the need to draw my two favourite boys after watching the new season. I guess I’ll just use this post to collect all my random drawings of them for now.
From May 19th to 20th I’ll be in the art alley at Dokomi convention in Düsseldorf, Germany.
Come visit me for a new-ish original manga, Voltron and Yuri on Ice goodies, prints and posters! ♥ I’m really excited to be there, come say hi!
If there’s anything I love it’s receiving proofs of things I have worked on.
These are two of the KOSMOS experiment boxes that I got to work on recently, one box being My first car, which includes a little picture book I illustrated, and the other one being My first experimenting kit, where I supplied a few drawings to explain experiments.
I really enjoy doing this kind of work, and it’s lovely to see the finished product come together.
I’ll be at Leipzig book fair (Manga Comic Con) from March 15th till 18th!
You can find me in the art alley in Hall 1, booth number MK224! I hope to see you there!
I participated in this year’s Sheithlentines exchange, a Valentine’s event in the Voltron/Sheith fandom. The request I filled in asked for the story of the team finding out about Shiro’s and Keith’s relationship, and I couldn’t help but make it silly. XD
This year I decided to ignore the rules and use Inktober to try out different digital pens and practice my digital inking. As usual I didn’t manage to draw a picture every day, but at least I found some settings for inking that I feel comfortable with. I think I’ll be back to traditional inking next year.
Also, I got a little excited about Shiro and Keith from Voltron recently, so, uh, bear with me here. :D
Here’s a preview for another zine I was lucky enough to participate in: The YOI Wedding Vows zine! It’s a really romantic collection of artworks of our favourite skating boys getting married! :D
Preorders start on November 1st!
If you like Yuri!!! on Ice, you should take a look at the Unknown Land zine, which you can preorder starting today!
I also got to participate, you can see a preview of my entry above.
The zine will be full of amazing artwork, and it comes with sticker sheets, too! I’m really excited!
Here are my drawings for Inktober 2016!
I chose couples as my theme this year. I was supposed to draw 31 images, but as usual I never really got that far.
The drawings were created with Deleter pens, and I used a small Moleskine notebook this time. It wasn’t ideal for drawing, as the ink bled through on several pages. I’ll have to think of something new next year.
Still, it is a fun exercise. Maybe I’ll make it to 31 next year.
Ich habe vor langer Zeit mal berichtet, dass Andrea Bottlinger und ich eine Kurzgeschichte namens Traumfänger beim Connichi Doujinshi-Wettbewerb eingeschickt haben, und dass diese im MangaMixx-Sammelband veröffentlich werden würde.
Es hat eine Weile gedauert, aber jetzt ist der MangaMixx 10 endlich erschienen, und ich durfte die gedruckte Fassung unserer Geschichte auf der letzten Connichi in den Händen halten. :D Der MangaMixx ist voller interessanter Kurzgeschichten! Ihr könnt euch eure Ausgabe in den kommenden Tagen im Animexx Webshop und in etlichen Bahnhofsbuchhandlungen sichern.
Eine Leseprobe von Traumfänger findet ihr hier!
English tl;dr: MangaMixx #10 is finally out, and you can now read Andrea Bottlinger’s and my short story Traumfänger when you purchase your own book at the Animexx web store. You can read a (German) preview here.
I got married last weekend. ♡
Thanks to everyone who visited my booth at all the conventions this summer! I had a blast!
I especially enjoyed Japan Expo, it was so great to talk to fans from all over the world. I feel honored that people would actually visit my tiny table at such a huge con. (I can’t even begin to tell you how often I got lost in the convention centre!) I really hope I can go again next year.
Now, a lot has happened recently, and I’ve had to update my convention schedule a little. I will have a table at Connichi in Kassel this September, but I will not be able to visit the Comic Cons in Berlin and Dortmund. I hope I can make it again next year, though!
Updated schedule for this autumn:
Connichi in Kassel: September 16-18
German Comic Con in Berlin: October 15-16
German Comic Con in Dortmund: December 2-4
