    in

    Yay for traditional artwork! On Friday, I was at the local DIY market and bought a fresh pad of watercolour paper and some new brushes. Boy, it feels so good to work traditionally for a change! I truly love Photoshop and my Wacom tablet, make no mistake, but you can’t beat a good brush soaked…

    in

    Have a happy new year, everybody! I hope 2015 will be filled with all good things you wish for. What’s to come in 2015, artwise? Well, I certainly hope that time will permit me to continue with Hive 53 though updates may be a bit more rare. The same is true for all other sorts…

    Hive 53 has turned six years old! On September, 22th in 2008, Hive 53 was born. Yep, I can pinpoint the exact date because the birth of these guys was extraordinary. What made it so remarkable was the fact that the crew of the hive fully formed themselves inside my mind in a matter of…

    Lack of activity?

    in

    Sorry everybody, for the lack of new stuff. I’m having a stressful real life at the moment (among other things, my little son is going to school now!

    Vectors are fun

    Messing about with vector-based colouring. After seeing some amazing examples of vector illustrations on dA, I decided to look into this a bit more closely, and it’s really a fun way of creating cool effects.

    Is there a life after FedCon?

    in

    Yes, there is, sort of. After an amazing weekend in Düsseldorf I needed time to recover though. FedCon was a wonderful event once more and I’m already looking forward to next year’s con.
