Dummy

Digital painting of a bunch of dummies in a test setting inside an aircraft. A public domain image was used for reference. No clue where I got it from. Maybe if you reverse-image-search it, you’ll find the original.

Haile Selassie

Digital painting based on the photograph of Haile Selassie in Dambacha Fort, 1941. I continue the same technique first used with ‘Mamoru Shigemitsu’: Using a public domain image for reference, I zoom in as far as possible and trace the abstract shapes. It’s basically glorified drawing by numbers.

Mamoru Shigemitsu

Digital painting based on the photograph of Mamoru Shigemitsu signing the Instrument of Surrender, officially ending World War II. I started with digital art because I was looking for a replacement to my Crack/MMO-addiction. First time using ‘Rowini30’ as an alias.

Kautsky I

The final comic in the Bongoville universe. Changed the title to “Kautsky”, the name of the main character. Figured it’s better for marketing. Turned out to make no difference. Story is a riff on US politics during the Trump era.

Bongoville IV

I wrote this after Bongoville III, it’s a smallish crime story about a mysterious party. Cute, nothing dramatic. Art unchanged. Introduction of a new character, Harelock Holmes.

Bongoville III - Dschungelsaft

This is a proper big story. Think 80s action flick set in Central America, with killer robots and russkies trying to take out our intrepid group of heroes. Real cinema. The art is still real rough to look at.

Bongoville II - Origins

My second foray into comics. Provides the backstory to the whole Bongoville universe. Short. Art remains crappy, though. Basically aliens came to earth in 1968, and Jimi Hendrix became president.
