[GG | Ch 5] 197

This happens in fall break when the kids are at home. I might add "FALL BREAK" in the first panel, letters floating between the pages.

[GG | Ch 5] Cover+Vignette

Hey ho, let's go! 

Here's the finished cover and mini cover/vignette of chapter 5.

New update schedule: 1 page every MO/WED/FR, 6 PM, so three pages per week. We'll reach christmas this way ♥

The vignette will only be in the printed book and on Patreon.

[GG] Chapter 5 | Progress: 100%

It's done! *drops the mic

SCHEDULE INFO
New schedule for chapter 5 final pages is MO/WED/FR
, starting next Monday (2019/08/19, 6 PM), not 5 days a week as previously said. This way, we can spread it a bit wider to not have a long break after it finished :)

Thanks to Anna for storyboarding and doing the speechbubbles, Lew and Bonny for flatting, Hanna for coloring and Ariane and Tom for translating. ♥♥♥

[GG | Spin-Off] Piet+Linus

I'm not sure if it's cringy or good, you can judge it for yourselves with fresh eyes X)

Linus' hair changes with every picture. I haven't drawn him a lot.

He is Piets piano student when Piet is around 25-30. He is very charming, but difficult (more like Tim as a kid) and doesn't have friends (for now; I'm still pondering over that but it fits that he doesn't fit in with his peers).

Second half of 2019!

Hey guys!
What's the plan now that G&G chapter 5 storyboard+lineart has finished posting here?


THE PLAN FOR G&G

- Finished pages of chapter 5 will start posting on 19th of August, 6PM, daily (MO-FR) for the $5-tier!
- Chapter 6 still needs one or two more scenes. When they're approved, storyboard pages will be uploaded for the $3-folks. I don't know yet when I will start lining them, but I keep...

[GG | Spin-Off] Henry+Sven Storyboard (first try)

I tried storyboarding the first couple of pages of the Henry+Sven short in may, that's how far I've gotten (not very). I'm still too tired most of the evenings to concentrate on drawing ~

But it was a nice challenge to do it on paper. If I were to do it now, I'd probably change the approach to something not as dialogue-driven and use more snippets of different things/days/etc. and dive right into it.

[GG | Spin-Off] Henry+Sven Sketches

So I have this little spin-off idea for a short comic with Henry&Sven in mind.
Henry is around 30 here and faces a rough time.

Sven is tall, muscular, friendly, easy-going, soft, gentle and has a lot of tattoos. 


Posted some of these in my Instagram stories already :)

[GG] Chapter 5 | Progress: 77%

Uh là là, we stepped it up a notch in July!

The last two scenes are currently being colored by someone else (yes, I got a colorist! 8)). Anna helps with the speechbubbles. I hope to get the chapter done in August so that I can start posting the final pages here!

The storyboards for chapter 5 will be done posting next week.

Welcome new patrons! :) If you want to read chapter 4, it's best so look under the "Fast Reading" tag ( 2019-07-31 15:01:00 +0000 UTC View Post

[cutE | Spin-Off] Triangle

Some love for the "cutE" (Spin-Off) cast.

I kind of hate Phil sometimes. But I hated Piet at some point, too. So there's hope Phil will be more likeable in his complexity someday.


Julian and Phil.

[GG] Holding you tight

An attempt at something a bit more complex. I'd love to try a bigger artwork again ... notime

Piet in the middle with Lukas and Henry in the first version and Thea and Henry in the second.

Do you have a guess at what Piets sexuality is? I won't spoil it - but I'm curious if you found any hints in the comic or from any artwork so far.

Look how golden chapter 5 will be ♥

Only the last couple of pages are left to line. Have to find a few days in a row to finish them efficiently.

G&G won GINCO Award!!!

Left: my friend Nadja ( https://twitter.com/Fiarfius ) Right: small me XD

Back from Stuttgart ComicCon Germany! It was a blast. Didn't sell that much, but making new connections and being surrounded by a different type of people than Dokomi (mostly manga fans, whereas there were more more diversive people, families etc. at CC) was totally worth it. 

The biggest highlight was the award ceremony of the new GIN...

[GG] Piets piano room at home

For rooms or complicated objects, I like to use SketchUp (the free browser version) to build 3D models and screenshot them into the panels. Here is Piets piano room and how it works for the final drawing of a panel:

Dokomi 2019

Dokomi, here I come! It's the biggest artist alley ever with like 700+ artists, phew. And my second time having a booth. Sandrina is going to help ♥

Here is my product list in German. All of it will probably be available in my online shop, too. I'm working on a shop solution (through Jimdo) and making international orders possible. Shipping costs for smaller, lighter packages are ok-ish (3,70€ - 7,00€), but big ones (>1kg) are more complex in pricing, depending on EU or worldwi...

Here are the first pictures I drew of Ella in 2015-2016, Henrys ex-girlfriend. They had a happy time until Ella broke up for seemingly no reason.


These are from early 2018 (failed to draw Henry in that hug-picture haha):

[GG | Spin-Off] Grown up Tim

You probably saw this pic on social media before. 

Henry will mount a game studio and Tim will get the position as the main programmer/coder. They've developed a strong friendship since school years.

Grown up Tim is difficult to draw ... he should look like a normal guy but also a tiny bit pretty?
