Lack Draws

Protests and power plants

2011-06-14T20:35:00.003+02:00

Two recent illustrations, one concerning the student protests earlier this year, the other concerning Fukushima.

Luchadors need love too

2011-03-03T16:15:00.005+01:00

Silly little drawing made with an ikea pencil, because I'm classy like that.

Halloween schizo

2010-11-05T17:09:00.004+01:00

not only does he display an utter disrespect for the one-costume-per-kid guideline, he's also a whole week late

sitting

2010-09-26T21:38:00.002+02:00

Freshmen and turtles

2010-09-12T15:36:00.003+02:00

Actually it should be singular. One for 'work':

And one for 'myself'

Which I'll probably color soon. And yeah I should clean my scanner.

Spears, guns and computers

2010-06-26T16:11:00.005+02:00

A small assortment of drawings I made this month.. The two first ones are for a couple of battlethreads, which sort of explains the aggressive tone. I'm really not that violent of a guy.

theme: "Dungeons and Dragons"

theme: "Grimdark childhood"

Lurking in the shadows

2010-03-12T00:06:00.004+01:00

Made this really quick for my sister who is an international crime fighter, and was in desperate need of an image that says 'international crime'. And nothing says 'international crime' like a criminal next to a motherfucking globe, y'know what i'm sayin'

Silence is egg

2010-01-25T23:50:00.003+01:00

Drew this. No clue what the idea behind it is. Was for a competition where someone was looking for a tattoo on his lower leg and I figured I could do something random but kinda cool looking. (talking about tattoos.. i haven't forgotten you appa!)

One for all the physics engineers!

2009-11-30T23:21:00.003+01:00

It's... Nikola Tesla! I heard he got screwed by that Edison-guy, but least he's got his own si-unit named after him.

Been a long while since I've drawn something worthwhile, but i'm actually kinda proud of this because it's my first finished computer-colored drawing :)

Skulls are out of style

2009-05-13T00:40:00.003+02:00

But teenage death doesn't care. also he has three left arms wtf?

It feels like ages since I've drawn something just because, but it's finals time so it figures.

Not Sinterklaas

2009-03-04T16:08:00.002+01:00

Whoo, another update! This time the start of what might become a returning feature: portraits of physicists with their discovery incorporated in one way or another. Although this first one isn't really a physicist, but an actor playing one. Bram van der Vlugt is a dutch actor who was interviewed about his role as Niels Bohr in "Copenhagen".

building bombs blasting buildings

2009-02-26T02:02:00.006+01:00

When I started this blog it was my goal to update it at least every week or so, but I have since lowered my objectives to at least draw and update once a month. And here is the update for the lovely february! another illustration for the magazine I'm sort of working for.

Totally ripping off escher right here

it's all in the details

2009-01-08T01:18:00.005+01:00

Last couple of days that I don't have to spend on school, so I drew something. Has a lot of details compared to usual, and I think i kinda like it.. heavily inspired by acorn. I think I might ink it some time in the future, or just finish it in pencil..

oh and I gots me a flickr now, mostly so I can hotlink images from there on other places.

Pencil and paper, like always

2008-12-24T16:48:00.007+01:00

Haven't been drawing much lately, and one of the few things I did draw I can't share because it's for the concrete canvas sketchbook, so it's supposed to stay secret until the book comes out. I did draw something for a stencil revolution battle (subject 'god'), but it was too similar to someone else's entry and I decided to save it so I can try my hand at digital coloring; here's the sketch for historical purposes.

And a quick demon sketch for good measure.

Merry christmas and a happy 2009!

Does it werk?

2008-11-13T17:09:00.004+01:00

An illustration that is supposed to go with an article about the financial crisis. Not sure if it's going to make it to print because it's kind of a vague and sad illustration, but oh well.

Kid cone and the puppet of sock

2008-10-26T17:13:00.004+01:00

Haven't been using my moleskine for a while, but here's a recent drawing i did in it.

What do you think of this, puppet of sock? It seems the very earth we're standing on has taken it upon itself to thwart me in my quest to follow my geodesic.

Under the sea

2008-10-01T14:54:00.004+02:00

Did this as an illustration for a student magazine, for an article about the official start of the antares neutrino telescope. It's scheduled to be published today, but i haven't seen if the image made it in yet.

The original render was done by F. Montanet

Dilemmas

2008-09-14T16:08:00.008+02:00

Wasn't really happy with the fineliners i've been using and wanted to buy some new ones, when i thought 'hey why not go all the way and start using crowquills'. So that's what I did, and here's my first drawing with it. They're not really positioned like this, but i like the symmetry.

Straight lines, curved lines

2008-09-06T18:29:00.006+02:00

In my quest to try out overdone stuff, I did this little perspective drawing over'ere. The cast shadows were drawn without thinking about any particular lightsource, so yeah, they don't make sense.

End of summer

2008-09-04T23:54:00.005+02:00

Was bored, and thought I'd try my hand at the age old tradition of just drawing a bunch of people on top of eachtother.. still can't draw girls I guess.

Pray for rain

2008-08-25T19:38:00.002+02:00

but pretend there's nothing wrong.

Death to everyone is gonna come

2008-08-12T16:30:00.003+02:00

This is currently my most favorite drawing i made, even though there's too much meaningless symbolism in it.

edit: added some highlights on his shirt and horns

Attack of the subconcious

2008-08-09T22:44:00.003+02:00

I thought this looked pretty cool until i realized it was basically picollo with a ponytail. Damn all those hours spent in front of the tv as a child! Charcoal and white paint on a piece of thrown away furniture.

If I could travel to the stars

2008-08-03T23:58:00.009+02:00

It would definately be inside a giant dragonfly suit.. This was actually for a stnclrvltn battle thread, untill i realized a giant dragonfly suit does not really count as an 'astral body'

to the stars.. and beyond! again!

And I guess the weird blurry thing is caused by firefox3 which for some reason thinks the images are displayed in different dimensions than they actually are, and rescales them smoothly (instead of nearest neighbour like it used to)
edit: ok im dumb, firefox was zoomed in at like 105% or something so that caused the blurring.

Hands everywhere

2008-08-03T01:13:00.004+02:00

Two recent hand sketches.. 'studies' you might even say? Not sure, at all.

is it me or does blogspot seem to make scaled down images blurry?

No pain no gain

2008-07-06T23:15:00.002+02:00

Little to say, but so much left to draw

Must've been a painfull birth

2008-07-03T21:45:00.005+02:00

Sorry for going all anthropomorphic on all of you, but here's a dude with the head of a goat.. if it wasn't for his nose and crazy teeff.. hatching ftw!

Everything's dark when your head' s on fire.

2008-06-16T22:48:00.004+02:00

How many fingers am I holding up?

Quicky post.. not so much a quicky sketch. Still figuring out those markers

Lack Draws Sporadically

2008-06-12T23:59:00.005+02:00

Haven't done much drawing lately, did make a quick painting and revised another one, but I don't have the means to put them up. Since it's kinda stupid to have a sketch blog without anything on it for more than a month, I drew a monster that looks suspiciously like the HULK just for the occasion.

And now, back to the object oriented data analysis framework! Lack... AWAY!

Angry charcoal portraits

2008-05-02T13:46:00.005+02:00

I've recently bought some charcoal, and I'm very much excited about it. It's actually not that long since I've used charcoal, but I forgot how fast and dirty you can throw something down with them, a whole different world compared to using a thin pencil. Here's some angry potraits on plain printerpaper in preperation for a project I'm thinking of doing.

The day giant babyheaded shrimp descended from the sky

2008-04-21T01:57:00.005+02:00

This is another sketch for a sketchtheater contest.. The theme is "Alien Invasion", so I drew a baby-meets-shrimp kind of creature, hanging from the sky. I'll probably touch up a bit here and there before I send it in, but here's a sneak preview for my loyal readers ;)

Tree from monkey(man) in tree

2008-04-17T16:18:00.004+02:00

A small doodle from a small monkey(?) with a human nose in a small tree. Growing out of the monkeys head. Levitating.

He doesn't look happy at all.

Another head/another singer

2008-04-10T14:46:00.006+02:00

This time the victim is Jesse Lacey. I wish I hadn't just start somewhere on the page, but I guess I did, so now there's a chin missing.

Eating books

2008-04-07T01:20:00.004+02:00

If only studying was this easy. Not that I have ever tried eating a book before, but seriously, how hard could it be?

DID HE JUST USE COLORS?! YES HE DID.

edit: Also, I'm totally biting someone's style here, I am aware of that.

Drawings on the interwebs

2008-04-01T17:38:00.006+02:00

Looking around the internet for forums with people who draw, I found a thread where people posted pictures of themselves for others to draw (which then could be posted in another thread). I thought this would be fun and drew something, but I haven't gotten around posting it because I don't think it's on par with the other stuff over there (It doesn't look anything like it's source). Anyway, here it is.

And a funky drawing of a dude on a bike, for a battle on stencilrevolution:

Have you guys heard about this band?

2008-03-21T22:22:00.006+01:00

It's called HATESEED, and the only thing that's real about it is this sketch I made for their self-titled debut album.

I made it for a competition at Sketchtheater, where they have all these video's of real artists drawing, it's actually pretty damn cool.

Man with a beard

2008-03-15T01:24:00.003+01:00

And the drawing of faces continues, this time the guy from Iron and Wine. Man, I wish I could grow a beard like that.

Faces from pictures

2008-03-13T16:12:00.005+01:00

After noticing my last sketch featured a fairly um.. ugly headed person, I've made a plan to try and draw more faces from photographs, to hopefully get a better understanding of what makes a face work/fail miserably. Anyway, here's my first, +1 for the person who sees who it's supposed to be.

Go get the rope

2008-03-11T23:16:00.002+01:00

It would seem that this guy already has enough rope, but he could use a HAND though. harhar... This space is probably better left blank.

Sympathy for a drawing

2008-03-10T16:30:00.001+01:00

I'm not sure anymore what to say here. But I did change the design around a bit, so I might as well mention it here.

And the other guy has a shotgun

2008-02-28T16:08:00.001+01:00

So this one guy has a sword?

2008-02-15T18:16:00.001+01:00

This is me trying to be one of those cool kids

And two Mr. Myagi sketches just because.

Whoo!

2008-02-14T15:07:00.000+01:00

Hello world! again. It was my intention to write a small piece about this blog, but it's probably better if I just shut up and draw more so I can show it.. to the world!

It's weird how you only realize after scanning sketchbookpages in how cluttered they really are..

I'm pretty sure I stole the idea of a tree growing out of someones head from somewhere, but I guess all ideas are stolen from something.

(first real post whoo!)

Hello World

2008-02-07T22:25:00.001+01:00

As soon as I get a scanner I'll try and put up some sketches here, because that's what this is all about! ME! drawing! EXCITING HUH?!
