Bunker

Expanding my artistic expression: WW II gingerbread bunker designed by me. Winter time at Karelia 1942. The scene includes mines, shrapnel covers, tiny spruces (the bigger ones been bombed to hell) and two dead soldiers. One blasted to the top of the roof.

Merry Christmas to you all!

News

Deadworld Slaughterhouse TPB is scheduled for April 2009 release. So beware.

Big news is that I`ve started a whole new graphic novel with Frank Beddor and that book is going to keep me busy for some time... I`m just telling that this IS going to be a big thing. But more about that later.

Halloween!

I am this months artist at the K-rappu homepage (finnish TV-show about culture and arts). And I`m proud to be the first one. It is going to be four pics in total; one each week so check those out. And yes, it is in finnish... It`s also a comic so there will be some continuity.
