New Print available from Moon Editions!

hey everyone,
while i was staying in san francisco i managed to do a new print with my friends from Moon Editions.
as you might know my prints usually aren`t signed by myself due to the fact that i live in germany while my prints are made in the US.luckily i was around for the whole printing process so we decided to not only have them signed in person but give each print two hand drawn embellishments plus one hand painted higlight.
as you might guess that took quite some time haha.
you will be able to get the print HERE
hope you like it,

florian

Danko Jones shirt

i`ve had the pleasure of doing a shirt design for Danko Jones which was sort of a first for me.
you see usually i work with HC/Metal bands or whatever you might wanna call it.
it was fun doing something for a punk/rock n`roll band plus danko is a really cool dude which made it easy to work with him.in case you haven`t heard of him or his band check out their newest video.Lemmy is in it and that should be all you have to know to feel obliged to check out this video.oh yeah Elijah Wood and Selma Blair are in it as well...

found on youtube

i don`t know who this guy is but he sure as hell has alot of my prints.nicely framed as well.stoked.

work in progress....

hey everyone,
here`s something i`m working on.it`s almost finished but i`m gonna draw in some more elements..
enjoy,

Baba Yaga shirt

hey everyone,


for anyone who cares here`s some info on my baba yaga shirt for shirts and destroy.
i`ve always had an interest in folklore especially the really old and dark ones because they were meant to scare you or teach you a lesson.the russians in particular have some really fascinating and grim ones to tell and i`ve always wanted to do a drawing for one of these stories.
According to russian/slavic folklore there was once an old witch who flew around on a giant mortar,abducted and probably ate small children, and lived in a hut that stands on chicken legs.the fence outside is made with human bones with skulls on top.in one story the heroine Vasilisa the Beautiful took one these skulls and used it as a lantern.
The text in the banner was taken from a poem by the famous russian poet A.A.Blok titled "To the Muse" and the text goes:

такая влекущая сила,                   And such an alluring strength
Что готов я твердить за молвой,      That I'm ready to pass on the rumor
Будто ангелов ты низводила,         That you brought angels down
Соблазняя своей красотой...         With your seductive beauty...

hope you like it  & cheers,   florian

Super Heroes vs. the Westboro Baptist Church

here is one reason why i love comic book fans:

"They've faced down humans time and time again, but Fred Phelps and his minions from the Westboro Baptist Church were not ready for the cosplay action that awaited them today at Comic-Con. After all, who can win against a counter protest that includes robots, magical anime girls, Trekkies, Jedi and...kittens?

Unbeknownst to the dastardly fanatics of the Westboro Baptist Church, the good folks of San Diego's Comic-Con were prepared for their arrival with their own special brand of superhuman counter protesting chanting "WHAT DO WE WANT" "GAY SEX" "WHEN DO WE WANT IT" "NOW!" while brandishing ironic (and some sincere) signs. Simply stated: The eclectic assembly of nerdom's finest stood and delivered.

As you can see below, the fantastic fanboys delivered the the church a humorous dose of sweet fan justice. ComicsAlliance was there to witness the spectacle in full, which you can indulge in yourself after the jump."

Sneak Preview

here's a sneek peek of something i have been working on.for legal reasons i cannot yet say what it is for.maybe one of you recognizes one of the characters i drew....prints will be available soon.

Hope Conspiracy / Rise & Fall Tour poster

here's a limited print i made for the 2010 european tour of the hope conspiracy and rise and fall.
kevin asked if i could do a print for their short tour and this is what i came up with.seeing how their latest record was called "true nihilist" i thought it was good to have the man himself in it.i only made 40 of them and they sold out the same day i handed them over to the bands.the banners flying around have nietzsche quotes on them.he's still the man no matter what...
