I hardly have time to do private or portfolio artwork, so I finished this one between jobs. It is inspired by the covers of pulp crime novels and magazines of the 1930th. Initially I thought about doing something like a James Bond like image with a dangerous sexy spy girl character for my portfolio, but I ended up with an image that more or less has the attitude of a detective magazines cover. Hope you will like it and please send me all your thoughts and comments. Best J. Warda]]> Mon, 25 May 2009 08:38:19 +0000 http://eltuna.cgsociety.org/gallery/705864

As usual I start working on an image with no final name or title on my mind. During the process I pick up ideas to come up with a title or at least some kind of story line. This one is a quite funny one. It takes us to a far future where mankind lost the ability to love. Chaos, war and destruction ruled for decades. The last few survivors living between the ruins hunting for a jellyfish like squid that produces a substance humans use to raise a drug that make them feel love again. This so called Love-squid is hunted by using a kind of fishing rod with strong claws to capture the squid and leaching the essence of the Love-squid substance to a tank. I think this is a pretty wired story but who knows maybe the world is in need for the Love-Squid already.

Hi There,

finally I have the pleasure to post a image I revisited over and over again because I always had the feeling something is wrong in image but I couldn't figure out what it was that made it looking odd to me. But I believe finally I got it all correct I hope you will like it but I am always open for suggestions, comments and critique as well.

This is the latest painting to my Mystery-Series and it's called "The Forgotten". I concepted it for a double page layout but each page should also be able to work as a "stand alone" single page illustration. I did not counted the amount of hours I was working on it, countless times of revisiting and changes. Done in Photoshop for compositing, Painter and Poser. I assembled a website with some detail views here:

This piece is a tribute to one of my favorite old-time Sci-fi movies: Barbarella - Queen of the Galaxy. I tried to reference to the legendary costume-design and bring in some clear lines and shapes to create a new fresh look. I hope you goanna like it, critiques and comments are most welcome.

I done this for some nostalgic reasons and as a tribute to the old Sci-Fi movies of my childhood like Buck Rogers, Thunderbirds and early black and white movies. I tried to keep up with the style and color scheme of that era and mix it with modern editorial styles.
I hope you like it, critiques and comments are always welcome.

Best, joerg

Neela is out to walk Barney, the dog of Kate's neighbour, and as usual she buys a lot of gifts for all her friends.

I done this painting mainly by using the "Just add water" Blender in Painter (yes! you can actually apply paint with the blenders brushes). The Smudge Tool in Photoshop was used on the dogs fur.
