I had long plannend a calendar and finally got around: you can get the 2014 calendar on my deviantArt account. For lack of private paintings across all categories, it is themed around my world Genius Loci.
The infamous bog called Muhrsape has a lot of meaning to me as a player, as my characters had many adventures there - around Havena's gruesome prison for capital punishments, the witches, will-o'-wisps, and undead roaming it... --- Der berüchtigte Sumpf Muhrsape bedeutet mir als Spieler viel, weil meine Charaktere dort viele Abenteur erlebt haben - um Havenas grauenvolles Gefängnis für Schwerverbrecher, mit den Hexen, Irrlichtern und Untoten die hier hausen...
This started as a rather random idea developed from a few nature photos I liked, but I quickly developed some narrative and left my comfort zone with all the birds.
For the upcoming game Hell's Arena, this infographic of hell depicts the nine circles according to Dante's timeless masterwork, the Divine Comedy. The premise was to make it informative but keep it gritty and maybe look for a new way of doing it, so I chose to make the circles themselves the tortured souls - I really had to switch off all empathy reading the punishments, being kept in burning coffins, torn apart and eaten, being incinerated and resurrected into eternity - but according to Dante, it's all fair. Who knows. I looked at a lot of Keith Thompson's work for inspiration, and drew it with pencils on A3 paper before colouring it digitally.
