A Sacrifice for Dagon

This is my latest painting. It is inspired by the Cthulhu myth of HP Lovecraft as well as a little homage to the golden age of fantasy illustration and of course inspired by representatives like Frazetta or Vallejo and some others. It is based on a pencil sketch from one of my sketchbooks (last picture).



in my Sketchbook:

Fenriswolf (Fenrir)

..at Ragnarök. Another concept I painted for Creatuanary.

Joan of Arc

This is my interpretation of Joan of Arc. I'm not a believer, but she was. It's my entry to a contest by 3d total. It's a mixture of 2d and 3d techniques.

Some details

Alicanto

A mechanical, gold-seeking Alicanto bird made by a dwarf smith... or something like that. 😆 Digital painting in Photoshop over a scanned pencil sketch.

Ramon

I made a stylized 3D character based on a concept I created last year for the Wild West Challenge at Artstation.

Flora & Fauna

This very high-rise painting is used as starter of the chapter 'Flora & Fauna' in the book 'Das Dornenreich'. The upper area is used for the title. The book is a regional guide for the pen and paper game 'The Dark Eye' ("Das Schwarze Auge") by Ulisses Spiele.

The Kadi

He's kind of a judge. It's the last character I've made for the regional guide "Das Dornenreich" for "The Dark Eye" RPG (Das Schwarze Auge) by Ulisses Spiele.

I'm also giving you a little insight into my process here.

Beer Pixy - "Broxkel"

A commission for "The Dark Eye" (Das Schwarze Auge) Pen & Paper game by Ulisses Spiele.

He's a little pixy who likes to nestle in brew kettles. His beard consists of beer foam and he is well over 1000 years old.

Deathbird

A little personal painting so I don't get rusty. I wanted to give some color to a creature from my sketchbook. It would be possible to go further with the rendering, but I think I've captured the idea. Maybe I'll build it in 3d if time permits.

Endzeit - Feature Film Pre-Production Concept Art

In 2016 I was involved in the pre-production of a german Zombie movie called 'ENDZEIT – EVER AFTER' .

It is a production by Grown Up Films in coproduction with ZDF – Das kleine Fernsehspiel in cooperation with ARTE.

The story was written by my friend Olivia Vieweg, she made also the comic book the movie is based on.
