Year of SHADOWRUN coming up!

Journal Entry: Mon Dec 31, 2012, 1:24 AM
As the SHADOWRUN fans "may" have noticed, there are some very big things coming up in 2013, and it seems like I will get my share of stuff to do. Which is good. [link]

2012 has been incredibly busy, and 2013 will apparently be even more crammed, what with RoleMaster, Nova Praxis and Traveller being among the systems featuring pix by yours truly.

In Germany, we are looking at the ... interesting situation of an upcoming 5th edition of SR with still some stuff for SR4 to be translated (SR 2050, f.e.). I'm curious how that will play out, and how the German team gets miracles done again this year :) (also, I am wondering if Tigger is crazy enough to plan/launch another "big" German book for release in autumn IN ADDITION to SR5).

So, interesting times are coming up, which I understand to be an ancient Chinese curse.

Seeya on the other side!

At day, I am working as a conceptioner and texter in a full service advertisment agency whose real area of expertise is sales promotion.

But at night, I transform into ... *boom* WACOMAN!

No... not from Waco. From Wacom. That's ... aw forget it ....

I started out as a hobbyist but have always done semi-professional stuff in one way or the other. During the years, I have done art and text for several publishers and systems.

In the Nineties I did computer game graphics for Amiga games by Silver Style Entertainment (who did Risen II and Simon the Sorcerer, among other things).

I also did several pix for the German releases of Feder & Schwert, the German publisher of White Wolf's "Vampire: The Masquerade" (German art and extra content of "Berlin bei Nacht" and extra art for the "Brujah Clanbook" and "Milwaukee Bei Nacht").

Oh, and I did the full artwork for the Berlin BloodBowl League Rules Pamphlet. That was great fun :)

In 2006 I started doing freelance stuff "in earnest", and have since contributed art and writing to

– Battlelords of the Twenty-Third Century RPG by SSDC
– Battlelords of the Twenty-Third Century Online Game by Athena Virtual Productions
– Shadowrun RPG by Catalyst Games
– Shadowrun RPG (German) by Pegasus Spiele
– Traveller RPG (German) by 13Mann
– Contact: Code Omega RPG by Robert Hamberger (biometal79)
– Transfer for the Universal Roleplaying Game URPG

And a *load of other, smaller stuff.

ich muss echt sagen eine Shadowrun bilder sind großartig, sie schaffen dass was nur wenige bilder anderer leute schaffen. ich kann mich und in den bildern wiederfinden und eindeutig sagen das es die welt und der styl is in dem meine figuren leben
auch die anderen bilder sind so wie ich mir die dinge vorstelle sie aber leider selbst nicht aufs papier bringe.

So, you're still not crediting your sources.
It's pretty obvious many of your artworks aren't digital paintings but photomanipulations.
And don't tell me you're not doing this commercially or your clients are responsible for the images you use. This is your job and you know damn well what you're doing.

As I have told you in our private correspondence, I credit all sources that I know of or that are pointed out to me.

Sometimes I will use photo references and direct photo manipulation. If the internet or other source where I get the pictures/photos/graphics/brushes tells me the material is free to use while they are not, I have no way of knowing that.

Likewise, if the person that asks me to do art provides me with reference pics I should use, I use them, trusting that the person providing them knows what he/she is doing (the person working for a publisher and all that).

You have told me in earlier comments that you know certain sources personally and that you know they never gave permission to use their work. I have responded to this by saying you should point me to those sources, so that I can verify this, reference the source properly and find an agreement with the copyright holder. If you don't tell me what these sources are, I cannot reference them. Sorry.

Concerning the commercial aspect, I have told you that while my work is technically commercial in the sense that I do receive payment for some or even most of my work, at present the commercial aspect is neglible: What is not eaten up by taxes gets eaten up by new hardware and programs (yes, I do pay for them), so the work basically just pays for itself.

Also, doing freelance illustration or art in general is NOT(!) my job. I do this in my spare time, and no matter how much I would L-O-V-E to do this full-time and as a real and paying(!) job, AT PRESENT (Aug/Sep 2011) I am nowhere NEAR getting "real" pay for what I'm doing.

I hope that I was able to answer some questions you had.
If you have further questions, please contact me via PM.

If you, the reader, are an artist/photographer whose art/photos I have (mis)used, please contact me likewise and I will gladly give proper reference, remove offending pictures and/or try to reach an acceptable solution for whichever problem there may be.

Thank you.

Be sure to use the e-mail address above if you want prompt (re-)action.

I rarely check my DeviantArt page and comments are in grave danger of going unnoticed.
