MS Seapunk

I showed Mrs Potts once before, but did I show her neighbour's yacht? (Both designs are for a children's production led by writer and composer Henry Muldrow)

Usually, I start drawing small sketches of the character / vehicle / bg I'm aiming at. Then I continue with sketches in the final scale.

Pencil

I'm quite concerned with the quality of those new pencils.

BTW: I'm featured in the August 2008 issue of the ImagineFX magazine, as I noticed today. Together with some brill wizards like Gabriele Pennacchioli (DreamWorks), Colin Fix (2K Games) et al. I think I'm in good company :)

Rough Sky Rider

I did another horned SkyDucks Rider but still haven't found the time to colour/finish it...

By the by and because Richard was asking recently: for those duckish skyriders I didn't any research but I guess I was quite inspired by the Red Bull Flugtag events.

Room With A View

Last week, I stayed in Paris for some duck work related things. And this was the view from my hotel-room: (We had beautiful weather, hadn't we?)

Oh, I forgot to mention that this very off-hand critter scrambled out of my sketchbook and then right out of the window. He must be still somewhere there on that clocktower of Gare de Lyon.

StarDucks Racer, Volvo 122s Amazon

Those car-in-progress pics just came in.

Abroad

I'm abroad for a week or so. See you then. Cheers!

BTW: I did a lot of design 'n development work for Red Bull over the past two years and it seems that even my ducks can't let off :)

Scuba Duck

If the weather stays like this I think I will plan a dive to Paris.

Enough Ogres, Mons 'n Beasts

Ben

Yuck!

No wonder that he's a single father.

BTW: A million thanks for all those wonderful blog entries and e-mails regarding the Greenhoerns, duckthings, critterbirds, etc. I'm really glad that those retro-punkish bird-like creatures go down so well with you! After all, their horned virtue derive its origin from a sort of cast-off idea (which I'll post a little later) of a different project. In this context I can betray that they (the GHs) will be in a way part of the StarDucks adventures.

Quint-Horned

This critter become recognized as the most criminal boccia player of all time.

Rough Drawings

Sketches currently on my desk. I can't get away from Retro Punk...

Below:

An update exclusively for Achdé. Cheers! (I hope this helps :)

ruler marked in centimetres (metric unit)

Horns, Hörner, Hoerns!

Update: Alright, here we go. Here're my fellow kippers, the Super Hare-Brained Greenhoerns. World Savers extraordinaire!

Above: work-in-progress piece

I think the only thing missing here's a critter with a green latern :)

Well, they don't have a great effect on high literature but they have a profound effect on prevention of wheight gain of horrid monsters from below ground level.

Hare-Brained!

I think this is the most insane thing I've ever been involved in... Anyway, I'll show you those hare-brained Greenhoerns a little later. Please don't expect some typically brave heros, determined to fight monsters. Actually, they were never meant to be heros... but then everyone started referring to them as heros. As superheros.

"...I told them who they were and they became it."

The Mon Within

Man, the weather is miserable out there... (About the picture: This character, or better this "part" of a character, is from a project which is still kept under wreps. But this pic does not disclose anything other than that the whole thing is pretty thrilling ;)

Blueprints: To Shampoo And Set; Paper Walker

Ropes, again.

Update: Talking of blue, this (below) is a cut-and-glue paper illustration I did recently in my spare time. In fact, the "real" paper walker! It was, and will be, used for a series of articles of my significant other in an Austrian business mag. (Family business, if you will ;)
