Mission accomplished

2009-08-10T18:18:00.001+02:00

Made in PSCS3 in about 3-4h.

New blog

2009-08-04T22:42:00.002+02:00

I've started a new blog on the html:
http://jaynikk.blogspot.com

It's a much easier adress and the blog will be in swedish only.
It's purpose will be more like a traditional blog and this one will serve the same purpose as before.
And that is a place to upload art. Although I will upload all my pics on the other blog as well.

c ya!

Jag har startat en ny helsvensk blogg som kommer att innehålla lite av varje. Inte enbart tecknade bilder av mig utan även lite musik då och då och bara andra "intressanta" saker.
Så är du svensk så har du mer nöje av den andra bloggen än den här eftersom den här bara kommer att vara som tidigare. Ett ställe att lägga upp bilder på alltså.

La musica

2009-07-23T22:20:00.002+02:00

Here's some music that I've made. It's kinda electro combined with traditional pop with trance and techno and maybe house...I dunno. :P
I think it's groovy anyway. Pls comment the song, and while you're here you can order some illustrations from me that you would like me to draw. ;)
Like tattoes or just simple illustrations.

Här är lite musik som jag har gjort. Det är elektronisk musik blandat med traditionell pop och med trance, techno och kanske house...ja inte vet jag :P
Jag gillar melodin iaf. Kommentera gärna låten och när du ändå är här så kan du ju beställa lite illustrationer eller tatueringar av mig som du vill att jag ska rita. ;)

Swede on the moon?

2009-07-16T01:57:00.002+02:00

Just messing around in photoshop until this pic came up. All done in PSCS3 in about 4h.

Lekte bara runt i photoshop tills denna bild blev till. Allt är tecknat i PSCS3 på ungefär 4h.

Revengeful Heart

2009-07-08T00:12:00.003+02:00

I've decided to write in swedish too. Why just writing in one language when you master several? :P
The training on front pages continues. Wanted to keep it simple and clean.
Now back to the drawing table.

Jag har bestämt mig för att även skriva på svenska. Varför bara skriva på ett språk när man kan flera? :P Hursomhelst så fortsätter jag träna på att teckna framsidor. Ville hålla bilden enkel och ren. Men nu är det tillbaks till ritbordet.

Enjoy!

Lolz

2009-07-07T14:33:00.003+02:00

So it's a rainy day and I took the opportunity to make a pic. A few issues regarding the anatomy and stance of the character but my focus is mainly to make the characters more lively and not so stiff looking.

It's all about having fun. Enjoy!

Summer

2009-05-24T04:42:00.003+02:00

I've just had a major drawing day together with my friend Johan. This is the pic that I came up with...all inspired of the great weather and great music from the superb musician Jack Johnson. Now I'm all tired but satisfied.
Longing for next weekend when there will be a fun event here in Umeå. BBQ, beer and good friends will make a great combo I think.

Anyway here is the pic. All done in photoshop CS3 in about 9 hours.

Things are not always what they seem to be

2009-05-23T13:57:00.003+02:00

Things are not always what they seem to be, so don't always preconceive.
This pic symbolizes the fact that you should be openminded and take time to get to know the thing/person/movie etc. before you decide whether you like the thing/person/movie etc. or not.
The pic is made in photoshop cs3 in about 3 hours.

Work in progress

2009-05-20T03:12:00.002+02:00

I am currently awaiting answers from bookcompanies if they want to publish my
book for children...hope it'll be published :)

In the meantime I'm trying to get back in the zone...I'm having trouble with my inspiration at the time but I am trying to get back on track and deliver some nice drawings. Here's a work in progress of a silly picture.

Promoe fan art

2009-04-26T22:56:00.003+02:00

I must say that I don't listen to Promoe that much but I really think his latest song is hilarious.
The music is made to attract the kind of ppl he is rapping about in the song. XD
The song is called Svennebanan in swedish. It is great. Anyway, I did this quickie fan-art-pic-something just for the fun of it. Remember it's a quickie and it's not made for any other person than for me...well I could share a little bit ;)

LongLostPlanet

2009-04-10T18:37:00.007+02:00

I tried to make this pic looking like a frontpage but it's work in progress. It's all a betaversion, trying to find the right style when it comes to coloring and drawing characters and all. Will proceed to make a more "alive" and interesting frontpage. All made in photoshop.

CharacterTest

2009-04-05T03:22:00.002+02:00

I am trying to come up with a funny character that sticks to the memory. It's kinda hard. But enjoy anyways.

Long Lost Planet

2009-04-05T01:27:00.002+02:00

First update in a while. It has had it's reasons. I'm working on an idea which resulted in this pic.
Hopefully the updates will be more frequent from now on. Enjoy the pic! :)

Longing for spring

2009-02-04T01:57:00.008+01:00

I am longing for spring and summer to come. Sick and tired of this damn cold weather with snow and all. Can't wait to attend bbq-parties and wearing shorts and playing soccer in the sun.

But as I wait I've produced some pictures as well. Some of the pics are for a project om working on so they won't be here until I am finished.

Here are two pics. One is a drawing of my girlfriend and the other is for a little funny contest with some friends.
Characters in that pic belong to the companies behind the games Assassins Creed and Bloodrayne.

Enjoy!

Blog

2009-01-17T02:26:00.007+01:00

I made this pic for my twisted friend Johan. It's for his and Peter's blog. The shit you can read there is not suited for little kids...that's the least I can tell you.
You can find it here: http://peterochjohan.blogspot.com/
Otherwise my start of the new year has been pretty filled with schoolwork. That intense period comes to an end at monday and then I will be able to update this blog more regularly. I've recently sent a book dummy to some major book companies here in Sweden. It will take about 2 months before I know if they're interested in purchasing it from me...just have to wait and see.

2009 1st Creature

2009-01-04T04:52:00.004+01:00

This year's first pic is looking both like a cat and a dog. Not the first pic I thought I would make but what the hell.
Feel free to comment it :)

Happy new year!

2008-12-29T04:55:00.002+01:00

I've celebrated a calm christmas with my family and with a lot of candy, good food and nice presents.

I wish you all a happy new year and hope you don't blow yourself up like the military on the picture. Keep your fingers away from them fireworks...or at least after they've ignited. :P

See ya in 2009.

Happy holidays!!!

2008-12-23T02:31:00.006+01:00

I guess I said that there wouldn't be anymore updates before christmas eve but I really had to draw another angry Santa just like I did last year. I guess it will be a tradition :) This year's Santa is waaay more pissed off than the one from last year. I'm loving my photoshop cause it feels so easy to make changes when I draw the whole pic i there. If I would draw with traditional pen and paper I would have to use erasers and shit and I also would have to scan several times if I found some mistakes.

I've been with my girl today and have played some soccer. My stamina was a lot better than I thought but my technique needs some practice :P

It was fun nonetheless. Tomorrow it is time to get the christmas tree bejeweled. Kinda boring but hey...it's gotta be done. If you feel down and depressed...look at my new Santa-pic and think that there can always be worse :P Happy Holidays everyone!

Nakedness

2008-12-17T15:30:00.004+01:00

I guess I made one more pic before christmas. :)

This pic is not just made for fun. A former classmate started a little contest to make all her pen-buddies draw chubby women in all their nakedness. I joined in and this is the result. You can go to her swedish blog here. ---> htt p://orchidpussy.blogspot.com/

Merry Christmas

2008-12-12T02:29:00.002+01:00

I will probably not have time to update the blog anymore before christmas so I'll just wish everybody a merry christmas with lots of good food, many presents and lots of love!

Merry Christmas!

/Niklas :D

Zombie, zombie, ie, ie ,ie!

2008-12-09T00:43:00.003+01:00

Just doodling around in photoshop when all of a sudden, I got an idea. Quite cool. Everything is done in photoshop :)

Krishna done

2008-12-06T17:01:00.001+01:00

Now this commission-pic is done. All made with pencils.

Design for a friend

2008-12-02T00:22:00.002+01:00

One of my favourite buddies asked me to draw an angel for him. Here is my second attempt. You can see my first attempt down below in this blog. Enjoy!

Batman and the Joker

2008-11-25T17:58:00.004+01:00

This pic was drawn after I had looked at the Dark Knight. The drawing was finished a couple of weeks ago but the coloring wasn't finished until now. Well well. Here it is at least.

The characters of Batman and Joker belongs to DC comics.

Another one in spaceupdate no.1

2008-11-07T20:43:00.008+01:00

Now you can comment all pictures in this blog even if you want to be anonymous!!

There will be at least one more update of this pic after this one. I am not completely satisfied with the planets. So wait a week or so and I will update again. :)

Cheers!

The Incredible Hulk

2008-11-07T11:49:00.003+01:00

Now you can comment all pictures in this blog even if you want to be anonymous!!

A funny picture of the Incredible Hulk who

is Incredible in many ways apparently :P

The Incredible Hulk belongs to Marvel comics.

Space no.2

2008-11-06T21:04:00.005+01:00

I thought it was fun to do stars and planets so I made another picture :)

Me and my friend are drawing like maniacs with coffee and music as inspirational sources. Pretty chill :)

Enjoy!

Space

2008-11-05T20:15:00.002+01:00

I found inspiration in some of my brother's pictures and started to go wild in photoshop. Pretty good for my first attempt of a space picture. :)

Krishna

2008-10-16T18:44:00.000+02:00

A commision I've made. Will update later when I've added a background.

Angel

2008-10-13T01:14:00.003+02:00

A devilpic followed by an angel. I did this one for a good friend of mine. Hope you like it!

As you can see I've developed my own logotype that I've attached to most of my pics here at the blog. It's kinda like my signature and will make it harder for ppl to steal art from here and claim that it is their own. Just for safety!

I'll upload some more pics soon but right now I must go to bed and get my beautysleep. It's a day tomorrow too. Filled to the brim with studying...I hope.

Over and out!

Devil

2008-10-07T17:17:00.002+02:00

Another boring lecture and this pic is the result.

Sketchy

2008-10-07T11:47:00.002+02:00

Did this on a lecture when I was bored. Came out pretty neat.

Sonic

2008-10-04T19:25:00.003+02:00

A pic made for a friend of Sonic the hedgehog. Some fanart. Character belongs to SEGA.

Green Eco

2008-09-18T21:44:00.003+02:00

A picture I did for a project in school. It came out pretty cool. Did it all in photoshop.

What's new otherwise? Well, I should study but all other things seem so much more fun all of a sudden :P

2for1

2008-08-26T20:22:00.004+02:00

I decided not to keep the original because it looked shitty on my new computer with a brighter screen. I just kept the one with a halftone pattern:

CamaroFTW!!!1

2008-08-21T14:18:00.003+02:00

I am not completely satisfied how this came out. I need to practice drawing cars. The coloring is varying in style too. I could've done better. But practice makes perfect so I'll just keep on training. :) I'm off to Umeå soon to start a new semester on the University. I must say that it's mixed feelings. I like the city and it's ppl but I will be far away from my girl :(

2 updates in 1 day. REMARKABLE!

2008-08-19T20:39:00.006+02:00

Yeah, I came across a pic that I've started to color. I worked for an hour and finally it was finished. It came out pretty good.

JayNikk???

2008-08-19T19:15:00.006+02:00

Long time no see. Well I've been drawing pretty much but I haven't scanned that much and that is why there aren't any pics to see. Easy problem solved. I've started to create some music in FL Studio and that is so fun :D The biggest problem is that I still haven't found all the filters and mixing things to use so it still sounds a bit noobish, but hey. Practice makes perfect.

I got an idea last day and took out the camera to take some photos and go nuts in photoshop.

Here are the results, they are pretty cool...but kinda blurry:

DavidSlaysDragons

2008-07-22T22:15:00.003+02:00

It works best in swedish, but a cool pic anyways. ;)

Frontpage

2008-06-03T00:40:00.002+02:00

Here is the frontpage for the assignment.

Shake&Step

2008-06-03T00:37:00.003+02:00

Same assignment as below :P

Soccer&Phone

2008-05-27T19:14:00.003+02:00

Some shit to the same schoolassignment as below. Enjoy!!

Goalkeeping

2008-05-25T20:01:00.003+02:00

Here's a little sumthin sumthin from the same school assignment as the pics below. Next weekend it's baseball but in a swedish way...it's called "brännboll" :P Fun fun! And the week after that is the last on this semester before summer holidays.

Panties

2008-05-22T21:57:00.002+02:00

There's a story behind this picture but I won't tell it here. ;) Hope y'all like the composition anyways.

An old fart

2008-05-22T00:44:00.004+02:00

It's almost summertime and the weather is fine! My days are filled to the brim with different sports and activities, but I am trying to squeeze in a little bit of artmaking and schoolwork too to get the perfect mixture. :P

Here's an image to a book we are doing @ school. Hope y'all like!

Darkness

2008-05-02T18:42:00.004+02:00

I am going wild with my creativity right now. Hope it'll go on.

Emo?

2008-04-30T15:26:00.003+02:00

All of a sudden I've started to draw very dark pictures. It's fun to try to capture the dark mood. I guess my more cartoony style has taken a break xD

Anyways, enjoy!

Wowboy!

2008-04-30T14:03:00.003+02:00

My dad listened to some kind of countrymusic and all of a sudden I found myself drawing a cowboy. That was kinda weird. Well, tonight I am going to a small shithole named Junsele to celebrate an overrated holiday. I guess it's just an excuse for ppl to take a break from work and get a little bit drunk. But I am not complaining :P Anyways, here is the pic of the cowboy! Giddy up!

That's me

2008-04-29T15:39:00.004+02:00

Several hours, days and months have passed since my last update so I thought it was time to break the silence with a few pictures of my pretty little face. Enjoy!

Face

2008-02-21T11:05:00.003+01:00

Just some random.....

Aquarius

2008-02-21T01:47:00.004+01:00

This style is not what I usually go for but I've discovered that it is much more fun and easier to draw on the computer cause you can take care of your mistakes and change things more quickly than with pencil, paper and ink.

I like these...

Peace out!

A fish!!1

2008-02-20T00:40:00.003+01:00

...yes, it's a fish. You've got any problem with that?

Didn't think so.....

Skull

2008-02-19T23:17:00.004+01:00

Well now, a special girl told me to do something about my "blogspot" since nothing is happening here.

I thought that was a good idea and decided to put my illustration of a skull here.

All done in photoshop.

Longing to see you again little girlie you ;P

Kisses for you, and to all other ppl...hugs.

Wordplay...

2008-01-06T16:16:00.001+01:00

Some silly idea I got in the middle of the night.

Just playing with words. The sentence says: "Gun (girl's name in Sweden) releases weather" and it means that you fart...yeah I said it was silly didn't I?

I should make some food now and wait for the bus.

Peace out!

Zeh Outlooker

2008-01-04T02:39:00.001+01:00

Well, this pic was fun to do...especially adding the text in the middle of the night. It says:

The view was dazzling...and he hadn't even looked at the nature.

I will try to add some colors to it if I feel like it sometime too.

On Sunday I will go by bus to Umeå once again and start the second semester after spending the holidays in Långsele with my family. That'll be fine.

Now I'm tired...fuck this, the bed is waiting. Good night......

Have A Fucking Merry Christmas...For Fuck Sake.

2007-12-17T15:24:00.000+01:00

Yeah, the first semester is nearly finished on the program of Sports Science.

I think that all the Santas look so happy so I decided to make one which is more like how I think Santa Claus feels deep inside...I think it's closer to the truth.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

LoveEnigma

2007-10-22T00:09:00.000+02:00

Two pictures that I did to some guy in Dalarna.
The first one, which is a little more rough, didn't get accepted so I did the other more cartoony one which he liked.

Basketball And Floorball

2007-10-06T18:30:00.000+02:00

I did this picture to a task in school, just for the fucking fun of it. :)

TheOriginal vs TheDrawing

2007-10-01T18:08:00.000+02:00

Here you can see how I nailed the looks and put them all on paper. It's spot on :P

My Bro Fo Sho

2007-09-30T18:16:00.000+02:00

My nerdy littlebrother Patrik in his ugly outfit. He wears his underwear on top of his trousers...kinda like a superhero but minus the powers though. :P

A Pair Of Images

2007-08-08T13:00:00.000+02:00

Here are 2 images.

I've been working the whole night and don't feel like writing anything else.

MonsterPic

2007-08-07T22:06:00.000+02:00

A pic of a monster which has its flaws but also has charm :P

PictureOfLinnaeus

2007-08-06T16:03:00.000+02:00

Finally I have activated this blog!
As I look at it, this blog's main purpose will be to act as a site where I put up all my artwork.
This is my first pic on the site. Hope y'all like it! :)

I did this picture to some people in Dalarna(SWE).
It was posted as advertising in Dalarna and was put up on several places around in Falun. It has the same style to it as my published comicbook about Carl Linnaeus which I did together with the writer Maria Bergström.

That's all for now. :)
