A dream in a shell

Absolute Urgency poster for the Absolute competition

Urgent message in the shape of a bottle. This is my contribution to the global #Absolutecompetition where you can choose between the different beliefs that Absolut stands for. The one I chose is "Brands should act in a sustainable and transparent"
That combined with the iconic shape of the bottle and the urgent situation that is becoming common knowledge. A humpback whale caught in a area of clean water with the trash moving in. The oceans are filling up with our convenient single use plastic waste. There is not much clean water and time left before everyone from humans to big corporations have to change consumption and reuse of every possible material.
The suggestions are postet on Instagram under hashtag #absolutcompetition on my Instagram.

The Rebel Vlog is finally a reality. Go ahead and dive in:)

RebelVlog finally live from the Rebel Garage in CPH. This is the first Vlog describing the work behind my past, present and future projects. All about Rebel Nature, Waveborn, concept and design, behind the scenes and a dive into the past projects including a certain Biological Chronicle. This is also the start of a long awaited giveaway "The RebelVlog Garage Giveaway" Join the journey toward a new legend with all the waves and hustle on the way. This is ultimately about creativity with a Rebel twist. Comment, share and Enjoy!

Dear BZPower, this one is for you and all your supporters and fans. "You'll take it from here"

I have always wanted to show my gratitude for all the years of passion, ideas, feedback and greatness that has filled the BZPower blog and community from the early days of the legend until today, and what better way than to do some creative work to show my appreciation.

This design is actually a suggestion for the BZPower, Mahri themed t-shirt competition that is currently running on the BZPower site.

This is an original tribute piece done exclusively for BZPower and the fans.

Exactly this point of the legend means a lot to me. The point where Matoro sweeps in, grabs the Mask of Life and takes the challenge and saves the day. The words are for all the fans who wear the t-shirt and keep the legend alive: “We’ll take it from here”. Especially at this point in time, the fans are the legend.

Here is a 2 color versions of the possible t-shirt

The INKredible Adventures of Drawboy. Ready For Summer!

Drawboy has found the coolest set of wheels to go cruising for sun and surf. The cute Bubble car from BMW and from a different century.
See it, draw it, own it (in your mind) Once you have drawn an object, location or person the shapes and details are yours to keep so the pencil is always in the suitcase, ready for new well designed beauties, shorelines and adventures.

Still "Emergency on planet earth"

This is my interpretation of a 2017 version of the 1993 Jamiroquai album "Emergency on planet Earth"

On May 17, 1993. 24 years ago, something epic and magic happened on my musical world map. For many years I had been into jazz, funk and soul and I had been chasing rare vinyl albums in strange record stores since my early teens. Suddenly this album "Emergency on planet Earth" landed on my turntable and a lot of dots connected. Suddenly the music I loved for it's groovy ear catching quality carried a message of purpose. Not just the usual text subjects but danceable music that actually at the same time made you think. In the middle of this small revolution (in my book) stood the amazing Jay Kay who in some way managed to merge funk with a purpose. He displayed the coolest style in a mix of sporty, hippie and funky, and he could dance like never seen before. I was blown away and many years later when I first sketched the idea to my story universe Rebel Nature, it was actually to the sound of Jamiroquai.
Jamiroquai and Jay Kay represents the perfect picture of the situation our civilisation is facing right now. They amplify the knowledge about our planet and environment and the epic challenges we face yet at the same time they have a party and dance the worries away. Living the dream with fast cars, private jets and models in bikinis.
When raising kids they do what you do, not what you say, so in this case we tent to hear the music, have the party, dream about the star life and then forget the purpose.

If this post ever reached Jay Kay, I would beg Jamiroquai to reissue "Emergency on planet Earth" in a 2017 version or 2018 making it a 25 years anniversary, and have Jay Kay drive a electric supercar.

Here is a link for the video that is still depressingly relevant here in 2017.

Getting closer to Res Waveborn

"I'm told I'm human, whatever that means?"
Res Waveborn and Rebel Nature has taken a new small but very important step on  the long journey toward the "movie" dream. Thanks to the dedicated crew. This is what a reallife adventure should feel like.

Cryoshell 2017 Kickstarter teaser poster

Everybody talks about their bucket list...

...if I ever had written a bucket list, this is one thing I would never have dared to put on. But then again..., there it is ...
I recommend not writing things down on a list making your dreams into assignments but follow your heart, stay curious, a bit humble and creatively hungry, have fun and embrace coincidence. To but it short "Do good work". Scrap the lists and the impossible may happen.
I'm immensely honoured to have my name on this ad in Cinefex where Ghost VFX thanks ILM for the assignments on Rogue One - A Star Wars story. I'm so impressed and proud of all the people at Ghost VFX for constantly chasing the dream, the excellence and the skill.

RebelNature concept drawing of Mutated Brittlestar emerging from the deep

I you wonder what effect the plastic pollution of the oceans has on the marine life then meet this new mutated gadget wearing brittlestar, crawling up the metal leg of RIG21 in the Rebel Nature universe.
Sadly there is plenty of food for this new specie and it is just a taste of what is happening deeper down. This is not a "bad-guy" in the common sense. It is evolution mixed with human waste and technology.

Merry Christmas from Goodman Rock and Rebel Nature

Snow falls heavy around the rocky outpost in the middle of the ocean nicknamed Goodman Rock. The lights are on and we are planning that 2017 is going to be Rebel Epic on many accounts. The amazing crew at Ghost has been busy doing a lot of other mind-blowing new projects that you will hear about very soon. But for now have a fantastic holiday, merry christmas and get ready for an epic 2017. #RebelNature #GoodmanRock #GhostVFX #FaberFuel

Inktober 2016 - The INKredible Adventures of Drawboy #12

"As I walk through the valley of the shadow of waste"

 

worried is putting it mildly. 

Is this really the legacy we will leave behind on planet earth. Maybe creativity is the answer. draw what you dream about instead of consuming it and leaving it as waste.

A new setup and a new gallery

A full can of FF Zero G floats just above the sand waiting to refuel a well-traveled craft

This visual is an attempt to show what I intend to deliver through my new company called Faber Fuel. It also marks the launch of a Gallery where I will collect my original artwork, photos and concepts from the past and present. Please visit, like, comment and share (That is my best fuel).
Link to the Faber Gallery blog

The name Faber Fuel comes from the idea of this faraway FF "Gas"station in the middle of an amazing rocky dessert where all kind of vehicles and characters land to get re-fueled before going on new adventures. The travelers both give and get inspiration and stories and they know that this is no ordinary fuel. It is FF Zero G and it neutralizes gravity giving amazing positive lift and power to go anywhere. Zero G basically gives you the power to travle infinite distances and infinite time in a single thought with almost no harmful emission:)
The FF station is just a thought away and I hope to see you there for a refill, a chat and new adventures.

"Someday, somewhere in the universe" My first piece of PostBio fan art

With the discovery of a new Earthlike planet reasonably close to us the idea of arriving to a new world gives lots of new inspiration. This is my first visual thought on this subject and maybe you can spot something familiar on the beach. If the content is organic or robotic that is up to your imagination. Any thoughts?:)
