The Man Of Glass – The trailer

Standard

I hope everybody out there have had a great Christmas and a happy new year. I’m finally back for some more consistent blogposting, after a tough december, with deadlines both at work and with the collering of “The Man Of Glass”.
At the moment I’m working hard on finishing the promotion-trailer for “The Man Of Glass”. A good friend of mine, Jess Jensen (Saybia), have composed a fantastic peace of music for the trailer, that really brought the trailer together. And I’m really exited to hear the reactions on both the images and the music, when I publish the trailer.

Below is an images of my workspace in the middle of editing the trailer.
For the first draft of the trailer I used Apples iMovie. But for the final vesion I have been using Final Cut Express, also from Apple. Great tools, highly recomendet.

The Man Of Glass – Allmost done

Standard

Hey there

I have been working hard on The Man Of Glass, and have been neglecting this blog for all too long. But here is a little update on the progress of The Man Of Glass.

I´m now doing color-effects, light and shadow, and is currently working on page 26. At the same time I´m re-editing the trailer in color, with Final Cut Express, and hope to be done within 2-3 weeks.

Below is a sample of some of the final coloring of the book.

Pin-up for Western – an Accent UK publication

Standard

Look out for the Western anthology from Accent UK, hitting the shelf’s 2009. After I got picket up by Accent UK, they asked me if I would do a pin-up for the anthology. And of course I would.
The pin-up in western will be in black and white grey-tones. But I was realy happy with how the colors turned out, so here is a chance to see a breakdown of the process doing the pin-up, and the color-version of the finished artwork.

After scanning the linework as 1200dpi bitmap, it was converted into greyscale linework. And then colored in Photoshop.
