Bitte, bitte ... es hat mich an meine Seminarstunden in vergleichender Anatomie,
Humananatomie und Zoologie erinnert. Schön, dass noch ein paar weitere illustrative
Werke folgen werden! Ein kybernetisch-didaktischer Aspekt des Werks ist jedefalls
unzweifelhaft vertreten ...
Sorry ... der innere meldet sich bei verrückten Konnotationen und rein zufälligen Verbindungen ...!

Kybernetisch-didaktischer Aspekt?! Genialer Begriff! Ich fürchte nur, der ist in meinen Illus insgesamt ehr selten wirklich vertreten... wahrscheinlich weil ich die Geschichten auch meistens nicht so wahnsinnig "didaktisch wertvoll" fand^^

NP! Your works are so photorealistic it's really amazing.

Which graph tablet do you use, if I may ask?
DigitalArt is interesting, and it's quite a motivation
to see other people perform that well, especially if
they're autodidacts ...

Thank you!
I use wacom bamboo tablet You know what... I thought at the beginning that drawing with tablet was so difficult, but it turned out that it's very easy! Except that a realistic drawing requires a lot of patience... Like in traditional art!

thanks for answering - maybe one should really simply have a neat and good try
(pen & active surface feel really strange ... compared to graphite pens and paper)
Well, it's a lot of work, no matter what kind of medium one prefers, that's for sure!

The Sketch 'Sandor & Sansa' is so lovely, it potrays the characters very well.
Your version of their awkward and strange mutualism is quite unsentimental
and that's compelling. Anti-villain (nope, he's not a Byronic hero in my eyes) &

Thank you! I tried very hard to stay away from the standard "romantic" portrait and instead emphasize how alone they are in the world - even though they are also bound to each other in some strange way. I'm glad that came across.

Die Tiergeschichten? Meine Illustrationen dafür waren meine Abschlussarbeit, ein reines Schulprojekt, das nicht veröffentlicht wurde oder so.
Man kann die Geschichten aber online lesen und als Buch müsste es sie auch (noch) geben. Die sind schon relativ alt.

Die Geschichten findest du hier: [link]
Ich hab die ganze Sammlung bis auf die letzte Geschichte illustriert, aber ich weiß noch nicht wie viel davon ich noch hochladen werde... vieles davon kann ich gar nicht mehr leiden
Ich muss auch sagen, dass ich die Geschichten im Großen und Ganzen nicht besonders mag, aber die Schule hatte die Themen vorgegeben und das war das einzige Buchillu-Thema... naja, du kannst ja mal reinlesen

Die Bären erinnern mich irgendwie an Loriots Sketch mit einem Ehepaar und dem Ei zum Frühstück.
Stimmt, die Geschichten sind etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig.

Yupp, die Geschichten sind wirklich "etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig"
Ich denk, ich werd auch echt nur noch ein paar vereinzelte Bilder hochladen... oder vielleicht einzelne Tiere... mal schauen
Hab mir den Sketch mit dem Ei auf youtube angesehen und du hast Recht, das passt irgendwie zu den Bären^^ Die sind aber auch wie ein altes Ehepaar

My pleasure, indeed!

It's marvellous piece, the raven-like wings fit in perfectly. I like the colouring and use of a halo which rather resembles a refraction. The art work is beautiful - just like the line art you have in your gallery, I may add.
I'm looking forward to your crossover pictures - the waiting time for Season 3 is going to get awfully long, phew.

The halo refraction was done with a round brush with high spacing and scatter, set to pen pressure. Photoshop magic, hehe.
