It's been awfully quiet over here lately, but after a year and a few months of work my first children's book, HET HONDJE DAT NINO NIET HAD (The doggie Nino didn't have) is a fact! It's being published by Belgian publisher De Eenhoorn on the 15th of april.
The wonderful text was written by author Edward Van De Vendel.

Here's a little preview of the cover and a few pages. We'll keep the rest a secret until it comes out.
There are a few other projects on it's way aswell...

The ICEHOTEL #23, a temporary hotel and art gallery, is located in Jukkasjärvi, 200 km north of the Arctic Circle. The ice is made from water supplied by the nearby Torne River. Within the hotel there are artists’ "suites" where artists who have been selected by ICEHOTEL’s Art & Design Group come from all over the world to create one of a kind site specific art exhibitions. Some artists have taken a literal approach to their hotel suite complete with beds, fur bed coverings, and light fixtures. This thoroughly documented project will be on display until the ice melts in the spring. See more beautiful photographs after the jump! More

This brush set from Fabian Schlaga is one of the best I’ve ever seen FOR FREE. Thanks, Fabian! Combine these with Frenden’s inking brushes (for a measly $5) and you can pretty much throw everything else away.

I made a big, scrawling comic.  

Read it here, if you’re nasty.

Yeah girl go on

  This young chimpanzee is Kokomo, Jr., described by WFMU as "the first talking chimp to come down the pike... to ski down a mountain... to open a checking account... [the only chimp] with a syndicated newspaper column," and to live in a pretty nice New York City apartment. The apartment actually belonged to his owner, Nick Carrado, but Kokomo probably helped pay the bills... [ more › ]

I’m not saying I agree

Do you dare listen to this hate-mongering teen as she attempts to rap about the perils of homosexuality?

PUBLISHER: VIPER STUDIOS
ART & STORY BY: TONY PIVER

In VENGEANCE, the first issue of what is arguably the most mysterious power comic find to date, we are introduced to Marco, a shape-shifting manatee with super strength, incredible speed, slightly above average intelligence and supreme aquatic agility. Marco breaks out of a top security area and is followed in hot pursuit by the mysterious “special govt. lab security team”. Retreating to the ocean in search of his family, Marco discovers they have been brutally killed - murdered - by a reckless speedboat. A fate “..tragic, but not unusual in the world of the manatee.” Marco swears revenge and upon finding the killer’s boat he unwittingly exposes a massive cocaine trafficking operation! Now with double justifiable urges to kill, the manatee engages in a epic shootout between the “high-grade nose candy” dealers, their sketchy buyers, FBI agents and the genetic lab security ending with triumphant Marco graphically murdering his parents’ killer with a boat propeller. -GD
