The book is short, but lists a dozen knots for ties, butterflies and even plastrons. There's pages on matching colours and materials, and on how to care for the ties.
(Haven't used that last one much I'm afraid😅)

But I wanted to share a little book that my dad gave me after leaving home many years ago.
It's called "The modern gentleman's tie ABC"(in swedish).
It's a print from 2007, but the style of the book seems to lean much more to the 50-70s. No author listed, just the publisher "Apart förlag".

Slowly working on the comic. I've got 12/16 pages of the prologue storyboarded, but need to figure out the ending to it.

I don't draw anime stuff, but I've enjoyed your videos from time to time, so here's my work in any case. :)

Congrats on the milestone! :)
The most recent piece I have is this Hagar hommage, but the piece I'm most proud of though is still this fight scene.

Fun fact, Helga's character design was the inspiration for the Jarl's wife, many years ago.

Something I did for fun! (typo reupload)
I grew up with swedish comic magazines, and they had a lot of american comics in them. I absolutely love Dick Browne's art, he was a master in character design. I tried mixing his style with mine for this, and used the swedish character colours.

Here is that last SHIELDMAIDEN teaser I worked on, before I had to put it aside for paid work. I still want to come back to it someday, but the comic takes precedence for now.
I have a lot more WIPs to show for earlier versions, if people want to see things like that.

That last animation was a character from my old graduation project at Art school. I did concept art for a fake Treasure island video game.

Hello Bluesky!
I'm a swedish animator and character artist, living in France.
I like stories, with a preference for sci-fi, medieval, and fantasy.
I'm here to follow all the beautiful people making amazing art, and hopefully share some of my own.
