SUMMER READ! #BattleAction Vol 3. Fantastic issue. Steve White, Rob Williams and other comic book legends cooked up some short stories that get you thinking. Also getting me OFF the balcony and on to my drawing table. Super inspired to get sketching! Thank you to everyone involved in this series!😊

GAMESCOM/DEV. Catch me if you want to talk story at #Gamescom, and our cool little industry conference Gamescom Dev (formerly known as Devcom) in the days prior. Still accepting henchmen to take pictures with. 😏

The best is: They get to do it in the ACTUAL Natural History Museum in Leipzig (Germany). No joke. Contrary to common expectations, Germans and even German institutions can show humor! :D

OMG! Absolutely gorgeous!! Looks like beat bord drawings! Is there a place i can see more? Doing ww2 work is one of my life-goals. All I have so far is a few beat boards from an unproduced movie...reminds me to check in on the 2024 pitch.

OLD WAR COMICS. As I am writing/drawing my own one I was loooking and found some cool stuff at home and in shops. Here is one by Garth Ennis and drawn by @westonfront.bsky.social. 25 year old but holds up! And happy I can follow great artists like Chris Weston on social media these days. 🙏

Fern alone is worth dropping by! 🤩(Sketching session with @creatureconsultant.bsky.social last year.)

WHERE TO START? My read pile has gotten big this summer. Help! Which one should I read next? What's your favourite? And will we meet and talk comics or storyboards at Gamescom soon? So many questions.😅 Please post YOUR #readpile below!

Looks a bit like Gaston...somehow?

SURPRISE! Found this #WW2 sketch on my Wacom MovinkPad. Might not have posted that yet. Should maybe work over it some time and take it to clean up?

DINOSAURS! I'm at @dinoconuk.bsky.social #dinoconUk with @creatureconsultant.bsky.social and it's kicking off strong! Wonderful talk by Matt Dempsey @sketchy-raptor.bsky.social and now hitting the vendors room meeting incredible artists, like Steve White! More pics to come! 🦖❤️

THEATRICALLY VALID. Can you create a #storyboard sketch that shows a character playing an objective to overcome an obstacle in order to reach an objective? It's not always super obvious but it should (ideally) always be there. 👉 Share this with a colleague or student who could be inspired by this.

Can't wait! :D

"ART AS A BUSINESS?" Are you a student or young professional struggling with making this work for you? Then come to SAE Institute #Amsterdam to connect on how to survive in the animation and games industry. Sign up for the June 18th event. Please share! Hope to see you here: 👉 lnkd.in/eTjb-U6p

Here's our #dokomi schedule. This is Germany's anime and Manga event of the year with 200.000 attendees and @Wacom has invited some cool guests, so you know it's gonna get wild! 🌞

YOU INTO JAPANESE ANIMATION? Me, too. Friday to Sunday meet me at #dokomi, at the booth of #Wacom ( 📍 Hall 3, 3M10) to see me sketch and nerd out about all things comics and animation. More info in the comments. Please share! We have a ton of great people at the booth so drop by! 🤗

TOUR DE KLAUS EXTENDED! Meet me at #DoKomi, Germany's big anime event with over 200k attendees! Witness me sketching at the Wacom booth May 29-31! 🤗 And on June 18th SAE Institute Amsterdam will host me as I reveal how to improve your career in the creative industry. #TourDeKlaus. 💛 See you around?

ANIMAYO. Storyboarding workshop. Maybe even in #spanish? 🇪🇸😬😅😊 Wednesday May 6th! #GranCanaria #Animayo. #gamesindustry #animation

WORKATION? I think this is what they call it when you explore Gran Canaria before attending #ANIMAYO Festival. Even our hotel is already joining the event starting next week. And yes, that is me drawing Conan on the plane, inspired by the latest issue of #savagesword magazine. 😊

EINDHOVEN x WACOM My @TourDeKlaus is starting at #playgroundsTAD and #Wacom is front and center with a big booth hosting lots of demos and workshops! Join me for live sketching and portfolio reviews! Looking forward to meet a ton of artists and industry friends at our booth! #gezellig 🧀 🤗

CATCH ME IF YOU CAN! With conference season and #TourDeKlaus2026 offically kicking off, there is only one question: Where will we meet? Comment below if you want to meet up to talk art or industry or about other nerdy stuff!💛 #gamesindustry #comics #art #gamescom #dinocon #animayo #etc #etc

And yes, if you play it right they will eat from your hand.

DRAWING DEER. Nice Easter weekend drawing spree. Germany, Düsseldorf Tierpark. Free of charge and parts have free roaming deer. 😊

SUMMER TRAVELLING CONFIRMED. Attending #DINOCON @dinoconuk.bsky.social which is an event for...everyone! 💚 Looking forward to learning more about dinos of all kinds and a lovely weekend with tons of creative and smart people in Birmingham (UK). Gonna be great. Who's joining? Link: www.dinocon.co.uk

Cool stuff. And cool cameos! ...Who's that guy down there I wonder?

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY! 🍀A certain @creatureconsultant.bsky.social gifted me this wonderful little #Ireland cup as a souvenir some time ago, recommending I should really visit the country one day. So, any games/animation/comics folks up for a pint next week in #DUBLIN?

HORIZON FORBIDDEN WEST. Was just reminded that #horizonforbiddenwest came out 4 years ago and I got to celebrate it in Amsterdam with a cool event going on around the #Rijksmuseum. Great people and atmosphere all around. And seeing the game you storyboarded on billboards: priceless!💙

SLAVA UKRAINII. It's been four years to this day and Vladimir Putin's Russia hasn't been able to bring the #Ukrainian people down. 💛💙 If you are a Ukrainian born Artist and have a website or a patreon please post a link in the comments! Photo: Me at the #gamesfromUkraine booth at #Gamescom2025.

GERMANY NEWS STAND. Oh look it's a @marclaming.bsky.social Defenders story, 2013 they say on the inside. Looks absolutely gorgeous still. 🩵 #defendersoftheearth

DETAIL. When #makingcomics how much storytelling can you cram into one panel? Coloring will do some nice addition to this shot as the guy is about to wake up in the early morning, still I tried my best on a smol panel like this. This is one of six panels on that page and it's not the biggest.

IS THIS TOPICAL? Sorry (not sorry) to be posting #WW2 exploration sketches from a personal project. With certain world powers trying to take other territories (looking at you USA and Russia) I have the impression that being reminded how all this usually ends is quite apropos for the times, sadly.
