ALLEGED.

Hey!

Here's my newest image, drawn in the hot and smelly surrounding of our
goddamn rehearsal-room. I did it with an empty black fineliner during
a spontaneous Heavy-Metal-session, fast and chubby and boom, I had
this Monkey-Jesus. Otherwise, it could be a real good portrait of
Dave Wyndorf too (15 years ago). The title's stolen from UNSANE.

BAD CATS, NINE LIVES.

Good Evening!

Bed, kitchen, car, computer, lunch, computer, car, computer, bed...
it's always the same. Life's Rock-N-Roll so, here's a new one which
carries the title of a fucking fantastic AUXES-Song! Listen to it and
you'll know why this little bastard is smiling that psycho!
The production took some minutes in our rehearsal-room and the
post-production... well, some minutes more. But you can't deny that
this is a high-def-image, haha!

Cheers, Robert

DEAD ON THE BIBLE.

Kaboom!

I'm crashing down with another one. This one's a little picture inspired by
the work for my friend Ben from Indie Mailorder 100 Kiloherz. He's doing
a fine 2-day-festival this summer in Wuppertal with some pretty Punk/HC-
bands like Cobretti, The Static Age, Caleya, Landscapes and City Light Thief.
If you have the chance, don't miss it and watch these great bands (and have
a beer with me, haha). And deeply hypnotized by those little creepy things
on the poster and the tickets I had to draw another one. Ugly as usual.
The result is an ink-drawing with just one digital color, perfect for screen-
printing. I think I'll do!

Cheers, Robert

THE.SPINES - MERMAID PARASITES ARTWORK.

Boys-n-Girls!

It's been a long time since I posted some shit of this here, but now,
the record of my band THE.SPINES is already finished. Well, it's
finished since March, we had an incredible release weekender,
played a couple more shows and sold some of our records.
So, I think it's time to show you how I wasted the last two years.
The record's a beautiful inside-out-print, with my beloved mermaid
that's getting fucked by a leaking oil-platform, encases in a 180 gramm
vinyl with violet one-color-offset-labels. On the inside you find a
lyric sheet, handcopied in a pretty stupid Staples center. Well, the
goddamn copier had a failure quote about 20%, so we hung around
for many, many hours in that uninspiring shop drinking beer and
were a pain in the neck for the unqualified temporary employments,
haha. And further, there's the "big bang" of our record, a poster with
the full artwork I already posted here before with a size of 48" x 12",
each poster was cut by the band (which had a financial cause...).
Printing the final format would have cost about 1000,- €, so we
placed two posters on one DIN A0 sheet and sent it to an online print
shop. Our benefit was saving nearly 75% of the money plus cutting
and folding (!) the shit 2 days long.
The bonus is a download card with access to the mp3s. The codes
on it were programmed by our crazy bass player who's actually doing
a master in IT.
And there is even more! Some of my posted images were used for
the merch, shirts, hoodies, stickers, buttons and the incredible release
poster! check it out it's rad stuff!

goodbye for now and cheers, robert

SWALLOW EVERYTHING.

YeahYeahYeah!

Another Sunday, another picture! If someone of you grew up in the 90's
with Punk-Rock you may have noticed the band MR. T EXPERIENCE.
Their Song "Swallow everything" is the title for my latest picture.
And yes, you're right, it's about (serial) drinking. So, inspired by this
pretty song (that makes me wanna freak out every time I'm listening to it)
I illustrated the uncomfortable appearance of becoming someone else
when your drunk. See it as the materialization a parallel universe of
yourself or a coming-out of your bad or suppressed habits. Good for our
little idiot here down below that he just turns out as a green tentacle-rabbit
with flying triangles...  For me, I can say that I'm just a (ordinary) tottering
guy screaming on the dance-floor constantly with a bottle in my hand.

So, let me know about your specific quality when you're full to the brim.


Cheers, Robert

WE ARE THE WORLD?

Good morning night!

I've been off for about one full month to take some holidays from everything!
No distractions through mobile-phones, e-mail, facebook and all the other
webby seducers that try to turn my creativity into wasted time.

However, now I'm online again, the batteries are loaded (the beer is in the fridge)
and I give you the first cartoon of the second half of my "Apocalypse Year". The
name is stolen from the pop-screamo-spastics of GAY FOR JOHNNY DEPP
which should not only describe my intention of the picture but also should
headline this second half of this year. I'll focus more and more on death,
devolution and hopelessness, topics I'm stuck with since I settled in my
depressive thinking to hate the whole human race.
The image is fineliner with digital colors.

So, enjoy my highway down the drain and get ready for the upcoming
eye-cancer-parade! Hail Satan!

Cheers, Robert

THE FINAL BLOOD BATH.

Greetings from Hell!

I hope, everyone of you enjoyed this weekend's BBQ! To remind you of the things
you swallow, I made a small piece that represents the "Fat American" who doesn't
care about where his food comes from. No one knows about the whole details of
the food industry, including me but people should ask themselves every time they
eat meat if this is necessary... Peace.

The title's from DISCHARGE.

Cheers, Robert

HELP IS ON THE WAY.

Party People!

Three weeks ago I had a post where I designed a festival-ticket and promised
you a poster design as well. The image for the poster is now already finished.
The whole thing still needs a layout but I can't keep the picture back from you!
So, here it is. The style is exactly the same as with the ticket, which means a
graphite-drawing (somehow, I'm stuck with graphite this month...) and a
powerful color scheme (petrol background, gray - and ugly - characters, pink
and yellow laser-beams). The size of the original is 27" x 20" and took nearly
the whole night from tuesday to wednesday (this is good for my dark circles
around the eyes). Next week I think, the poster will be finished, until then you
can enjoy this (non-christian) motif. The characters remind me of the
Mudokon Abe from "Oddworld" - pretty fine game, very 90's haha!
Leave a beer if you want!

The title is stolen from the fucking fantastic song "Help (is on the way)"
from ALL EYES WEST's self-titled record. Check it out, it's awesome!

Cheers, Robert

HIGH WHORE.

Unholy Sunday!

Please welcome a new month! A month full of love, where I hope my pictures
are going to become a little more positive. I start with a beautiful colored
piece which took some time. This one I drew with graphite and tried to do it
more accurate than my slutty biro-drawings... The image is going to be used
in a tour-poster for some local bands (yes including my band) so I wanted to
create some iconic character with a monumental touch between a jungle-ruin
and the Medusa. The colors should be both washed out and loud, I think I hit the
bull's eye (at least my personal imagination). The poster-design will follow soon!

If you should fall in love with my creature, please let know. Otherwise listen
to RAGING SPEEDHORN's same named song. It's a fucking bulldozer!

Cheers, Robert
