cursed to burn


Hello blog! I made a new piece for you dear friend.

- Inspired by the movie ´Drag me to hell´, which I´m sure will stand as my most enjoyable theater-experience for the year ..unless something out of the ordinary will occur. As it did, I do highly recommend this flick! Bring someone squeamish with you.

I prefer the sketch. But if I don´t try... I do not learn.

Fashionistas - vehicle sketching

Early explorations of different types of vehicles/cars. As with the characters there will be at least 3 different classes of vehicles for the different groups.



Below: Wheels or no wheels. The wheels do get in the way in the design of a nice vehicle. Unless you find good solutions for them you very often find yourself limited by the wheels, at least I do.

Here I played around with some floating vehicles. But its tricky. I wouldnt want to make it too easy and just have unexplainable sources of power keeping these things up in the air.. so for now I´m dropping the idea a bit. I find that setting limitations makes it both easier to balance things out and adds to an overall believability in the universe that I´m pushing for here which is not intended to be too far from the one we are in now.



Fashionistas - character sketching

At my spare time I have a few personal projects going that I enjoy working on.

These are for a project I have chosen to name ´Fashionistas´.. for now at least. It´s a tricky and fun thing coming up with a new world and a supporting story and try to balance all these ingredients into something entertaining. Despite the name I don´t necessarily see fashion to be the main lead... it´s more about greed and superficiality.

First off here´s some early character-sketching.


My focus here is foremost to get an idea of the general differences between the characters, especially in size as you can see. But with this I can already get a good idea of what direction I would like to take these different groups of characters.

Some male variations. I could definitely go a lot more further with the clothes.


First sketches of ladies in the group inspired by the 20s.

This is also the first time I´m putting my name on my digital work. I figured It would be a good way to take more responsibility for my work, good or bad.
