I´m super late but... HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012
I wanted to do this retrospective almost 2 years ago .... talking about procastination here, even with having pretty much all the files ready haha.
So, I´ll give a shout out to Casey and Okha , who still had a lot of my old images and saved me a lot time :)
I´m just going to cover the years 2000-2006 though. From 2006 on you can see most of my drawings here in the archives haha
Oh and this was inspired by the wonderful Katie Rice , I highly recommend to visit her blog... her retrospective is unfortunatly gone :( And make sure to check the look-back from Daniel Lieske Daniel Lieske
2000-2003
Influenced by the few Mangas and Anime that were on the market around that time I was highly influenced by Sailor Moon, Magic Knight Rayearth, Battle Angel Alita , Record of Lodoss War and Escaflowne (character designer Nobuteru Yuuki was in fact the first animator whoose name I actually remembered and the first Anime based Artbook I bought was some kind of groundwork Artbook for the Escaflowne Movie)
2004-2006
Got my own mac for my 19th birthday with Ps6 on it and could finally properly practise CGing. I already owned a small wacom at that time and now spent all my free time between school and jobbing to practise :D Couldn´t wáít to do what I´ve seen from other artists online. The beginning wasn´t very promising though, I had a hard time getting used to do everything digital.
Also I started to study Graphic Design in Hildesheim that year and at the end of 2004 I discovered ca.org and was blown away haha Also a few month later I bought a proper sketchbook, beeing inspired by wesburt to actually render with pencil...
Also started with a few comics during that time but never finished them...

I´ve been sorting out and throwing away a lot of things the last days ... sort of as a preparation for the new year. I think I´m going to do one more post before 2012 though ! haha Some pieces must be still from 2009-2010.. I actually remember that there are some sketches I did not really like back then and now I´m sort of ok with them. I guess there is sometimes some distance needed.

This an that, a few oldies, wips and junk. Haha, my drawings have gotten so scruffy XD
Sorry for always beeing absent and thank you so much for over 800 followers. It doesn´t seem much by todays standards but when I started this blog I never expected it to run for so long and have so many visitors. It´s still mindblowing (for me, haha). Thank you!!And I havn´t forgotten about that retrospecive ;)
a bit T&B :3 (wait for more)

Not 100% finished, but I have to go on with other things so it´s just this...
some steps
another one ... ( this one has beheading in the background, not very explicit but if you don´t want to see it please don´t click :) )
The sketch, not so different from the final :) Just decided to change the pose a bit and erase th elong hair...
Still having fun with armor and costumes. All trial and error without rush !

I´m really bad with this blog thing am I ? The backlog of stuff is so huge now that I get a headache by just thinking about it, but you gotta start somewhere I guess ! I scanned a bit from my sketchbook ( which isn´t even half full even though I bought it at the beginning of this year, haha ! I find it hard to believe that a few years earlier I had the energy to fill such a book in a month XD )
I just wish it wouldn´t be so time intense to scan all the pages... more to follow...
I like this one, might work on it a bit longer when I find my muse again :)
What I´m usually doing when I don´t fangirl all over TIGER&BUNNY ( fanart flood incoming... when i got my stuff done :) )
