Sherlock

comic

As copyright to Sherlock Holmes has expired poor Sherlock Holmes has become fair game. this cartoon, doesnt make much sense without knowledge of German and german pop culture, so I won’t translate this one….

Tante Alma in Space…., or at least in Mülheim an der Ruhr

Tante Alma Comic Teil 2

comic

Another comic for Tante Alma Hangout. This time about specialities from Cologne (which quite oxymoronic).

Tante Alma

comic

I have been working for the new hotel chain Tante Alma Hangout (https://tante-alma-hotels.com/). The idea iss that these hostels have a story about being owned by a fictional character called Aunt Alma, who is kind of a female Captain Blaubär, meaning her stories might be made up but who knows. perhaps Tante Alma was the first human on the moon, the inspiration for James Bond, a famous opera singer, racing driver, and the woman who Jimi Hendrix stole his licks from….

It is great fun. This is the first comic strip I made for them. Apologies to Yoko Ono….

These are the sketches:

Stuttgart mon Amour

comic, illustration

A test I made from a drawing I did in Stuttgart. I like old fashioned comic styles , so I tried, what that would look like…The main difference is that I omitted the numerous cars. I combined two ink drawings and coloured them digitally. Probably the black and white drawing is better, which is a pity, because the coloured version was quite a lot of work.
