Deadworld Omnibus review

At finnish Pelit (Games) -magazine.

King Z. advising

Crow tattoo for Antti I.

Done by Jarno Kantanen (Tatuata) after my drawing.

I look better IRL

Yep it is me. This one goes to one finnish magazine. More about that later...

I`m late. I know

...but here is a happy easter pic anyway. Since I had done this. Only didn`t have time to finish it during the weekend.

Happy day at the animal farm

April Fools Day!

All respect to Dave mcKean who went into certain direction with the Joker.

Theater poster and program

The theater project I mentioned in Twitter. A solo-monologue by choreographer Nina Mamia and actor Kasperi Nordman.

Dinner

Once more, he fed his family.

What the hell I`ve been doing

Illustrating Deadworld as usual! But sorry I haven`t updated the site lately. I try to be more timely from now on.

Desk at the moment

DW stuff

Tattoo

Another tattoo designed. Other than this I`ve been drawing the full color Deadworld as some of you know. And it is quite easy to say, even now, that it is going to be the best comic so far by me. It is both full color and horror and I`m really trying to do my best with it. I`ll upload one or two of the newest pages here soon.

Personal photography

Nature taking over.

Those pigs

Creatures of The Night

Drawing for no reason. This isn`t probably going anywhere unless you want it on your wall.

Snapshots

Shot of me taken by Noona Mäkinen with a crappy mobilephone cam. And then mangled in photoshop by me. More of these in Facebook.

Drawing stuff

Drawing `cause there is nothing much to do. Waiting for the next bunch of script pages.

Update: It`s now third time that I took this image further. It`s now changed quite a bit from the first version. Just wasn`t happy with it. And am still not. So it may still change. Be patient.


Update: Hopefully the last one.


Update 012211: I know. It`s sad.

Deadworld Omnibus

DEADWORLD OMNIBUS is now in stores. It was scheduled for the end of the month but it's in stores as of today. Featuring the collections of Deadworld: Requiem for the World (Image), Deadworld: Frozen Over (Desperado), and Deadworld: Slaughterhouse (Desperado), the book is over 300 pages and contains all of the "newest" version of Deadworld. A very thick book with 13 issues worth of pages. for only $12.95 and a GREAT spot to get into the DEADWORLD.

The Master

Happier new year

Merry christmas, hanukkah etc.

Jason

Watched Friday the 13th. extended cut (2009). I was a big fan of the original movie series back when I was like 16 and have most of them on VHS tape (they have made a total of 11 films plus this new one if I remember it correctly). Jason Voorhees is more iconic than Michael Myers; the hockey mask really does the job. And yes; I still have something like 300 VHS tapes I never carried to dumpster.

HELLsinki freezes over

Not Siberia. Helsinki this evening. We have more snow than anywhere in Finland. Used to be the other way round. Over 50 cm. at this moment. Over 70 car crashes today.

Undead Girlie

Testing some new techniques. I used a lot more collage here with this little girl.

The dead has risen

Death

This fella here is originally a tattoo I designed few weeks ago. But I took the image a little further since I wanted to test some colors the new Deadworld series in my mind...

Chaos AD.

Finished part eight of The Pacific -tv series and took a look at my desk. And the first thing that comes to my mind is the battlefields of Iwo Jima. Will finish my cup of coffee now and start filling more of them papers. But I will not clean the desk. No. I will end up living amongst my scribbles in a mad scientist way.

Deadworld Omnibus

IDW and Desperado are releasing the DEADWORLD OMNIBUS for January release. It collects Requiem for the World (Image) and Frozen Over and Slaughterhouse (which was only in hardcover)...264 pages for only $19.99. This is where Deadworld was sort of rebooted so fans could join right in and not have to deal with the 50 previous issues of continuity. Diamond order #NOV10400...make sure you tell your store you want a copy so they'll be sure to order it. Also, here is an interview Gary Reed did that discusses it a bit more.

Helsinki or Gotham?

Met friends last night: me and mister Penguin!

Preparing for the night out

Alchemy of Katana making

A quick memo of the process.

Hatter M. vol. 1 reissue

Vol. 1 was illustrated by Ben Templesmith but the now published reissue includes two short stories I did last year. That`s 18 pages from me.

Cleaning pipes

Got this great waste pipe cleaning powder from friend of mine. I think with 20 cans of them you could dispose a body. For professional use only!

The world is dead

Another page from the Deadworld graphic novel I`m very much trying to illustrate in the middle of this chaos and pressing. But I`m enjoying it. The biker Tony has got himself to a situation not so nice.

Drawing stuff

Done this morning. Just minutes ago.

deadworld doodle 3

Dan this time.

Older scifi

They started to broadcast the new V -tv series here yesterday. And as I very much guessed it, the series seems to be crappier than the old one. Very much the same way than The original Battlestar Galactica vs. the new one. hope it will get better later; I`m still going to see the next episode.

Well here we go. An image of Cylons I did a long time ago. I modified it a bit though (and no the older version was not better).

Character designs

A VERY quick character design sketch warm up

thingy for Deadworld. Meet Lonnie and Tony, an

ex-biker with Harley motor tattooed to his belly.

Desk today

My desk today. Some Hatter drawings and a cup

of coffee. Lot`s of more drawings at the left

corner. And the red thing is ink made in China. 

Smells like shit.

Hatter M. vol. 3

A reminder. Hatter M. vol. 3 hardcover

is now available.
