Year 11

Happy new Year v2.11! Hope you all had a good upgrade!
To follow the same procedure as every year, I can show you my new calender for 2011. This time Fridolin, the funky pharmacy fox invented a time maschine, that may be look like an apple i-dixi mobile toilet, but it works!
Taming mammuths in the Ice Age, watching the conquest of the paradise, modelling for Leonardo DaVinci, listening to Mozart, being traced by Sherlock Holmes or finally celebrating the new year in a future Manhattan - the adventures of the Frido have never been that spectacular before! (I just got a call from James Cameron who wants to make a 12 month long pharmacy calender-movie instead of Avatar2 (...I think Andy Serkis will play Fridolin, but that's not verified, so sshhh!)

Ok, jokes apart, it was real fun again to draw the calender and it turned out ways more detailed than the last one, but it was worth the effort. And who detects him-/herself in the second last picture (november/present-day) will be in the movie too ;)



Frido in the course of time...

Also see calenders 2010, 2009 or  2008!

Merry Christmas!!

Waldschrats Katze

My attempt to draw an atmospheric concept art / speedpainting or something (took me about 1 hour). A Waldschrat meets a cat.

Happy Happy Birthday pictures

What could be better for a good friend's birthday than drawing a picture ? It's the most personal present you could give and the cheapest at the same time :)
So here are two pictures I have drawn for friends in the last time:

by Scherke round about 2000

This second picture is based on an old sketch that Scherke gave me about 10 years ago asking me to draw it in a comic style. I never did that, because that paper got misplaced and I recovered it no more than two month ago when I moved back to Bo. And Scherke's birthday was the best chance for lately grant the question. (I only added goat priests, skulls, cables and tentacles... just things that make a good picture :p

How to draw an owl

For a change something educational that I found on the net :)

Kugelhund

If you are already searching for the perfect christmas present for your 5+ years old kids, I warmly recommend the skill-game Kugelhund (Roly-Poly Dog or Chiens en folie pour nos amis francaise:) that has just been released at Schmidt Spiele (and I do not only recommend it, cos I did the illustration...!)

It's a real fun digging game and it even has it's own gameplay-trailer (OMG!)



From the game instruction: 
Bella and Bello are completely over the moon! Their friend Isabella has come to visit unexpectedly. And of course they want to give her their best bones. But where on earth have they buried them? Oh yes, under the garden gnome and there, beside the watering can.
Bella and Bello run about tirelessly, burrowing here and digging there...
The one who guides them over the lawn skilfully and is first to dig up the bone for Isabella together with them wins the game.

My roly-poly dog on this year's games fair in Essen.

So write it on your wish list for santa or directly order it via Amazon! Dog'n'roll, baby!

Seafood dinner
