Welcome to the world of my mind...
 
This is probably the first slideshow
in our part of the scene, where there
is such a small percentage of copies
in it. The main thing in this show is
actually that I have thought, formed
and shaped all of the pictures in my
own mind, but still, I want you to
look at my pictures, as you would
look at any other computer pictures.

Actually I had a very good time doing
this show, because I realised that
everytime I sat down by the computer,
nice things would float from my head,
through my hand, into my mouse and
at last it all appeared on my screen,
just as I wanted it to be. It was my
intention to do something bigger, but
the standard A1200 hardware said STOP,
so you'll have to do with this for now.

How I entered the scene...
I October '93 Mount (at that time he was
in Parasite) discovered my graphics
abilities, and he made it possible for
me to join Parasite. At that time, I
didn't know anything about the various
techniques a graphician needs to know,
so all my gfx vere done in hires
interlace. Just before the Gathering '94
I discovered how to do antialias, and I
ended up on quite a good position in
the gfx competition.

I got a job...
Just before the Gathering I got a gfx
job at InterActivision(A/S), so during
the making of this slideshow, I have
also been working on a game, which
(hopefully) will be out soon.

The pictures
Who?
This picture is actually a selfportrait. My older brother made a fast sketch of my face, and then I did my own version on the screen.

Worktime: 2 eves
Fin: End October '94
Colors: 32 AGA

A Good Pipe Of...?
This picture is supposed to be Gandalf and his big pipe of...? The picture was in the competition at Assembly 94.

Worktime: 3 Days (Bit under pressure)
Fin: Just before Assembly '94
Colors: 64 AGA

Phantom Ship
When I was a small kid, my father and I made a wooden model of Columbus' ship "Santa Maria". I held it out in front of me and made a fast sketch on the screen.

Worktime: 4 eves
Fin: June 1994
Colors: 64 AGA

Dragonlove
First I made a quick 32 color version, but I couldn't make up any background. Mount converted the pic to 16 colors nonAGA, and made a bg.

Worktime: 8 h's of shading
Fin: March '94
Colors: 16 nonAGA

Dead Prisoners
Revenge.. Hmm.. I copied the skull and the right hand from some fantasy picture, but the rest is my own.

Worktime: A week of very light work.
Fin: May '94
Colors: 64 AGA

Friend on wings
The dragon took form in my own mind, so screw you all.. (HOHO!)

Worktime: 2 weeks (what a waste of time!).
Fin: August '94
Colors: 128 AGA

Priests Anger
Made this after the South Sealand party, to test some techniques that Devilstar had told me. succes?? I know the sky's a bit pink, but that is the way that my mind rendered it...(?!).

Workingtime: 3 days.
Finished: June 1994.
Colors: 64 AGA.

Outside the shire
This is probably one of my best pic, ehh. It shows Gandalf in the beautiful, but hostile country of Rhun. It's 100% my own picture. - Can you find Gollum?

Worktime: A week.
Fin: October '94
Colors: 128 AGA.

Reflection
One day, while I had no ideas, I saw the reflection of my own face in the screen... A few corrections to make it look more evil, and I had a picture with perfect light on it.

Workingtime: 4 hours.
Finished: June-July.
Colors: 16 AGA.

Papa was an Alien
I started one day before the South Sealand party, and it was in Vention's demo at that party. It popped out of my own bored brain.

Worktime: 2,53 days.
Finished: June (4 o'clock in the morning at that party).
Colors: 128 AGA

The Future
My good friend Anders Laerke helped me with the sketch, and I finished the picture in no time. I don't like this picture.. This picture was also used in our "Gevalia"

Worktime: 3 days.
Finished: June 1994.
Colors: 128 AGA (What a waste).

Space Orc Napoleon
Ahh, this picture is one of my faves. The orc-thing reminds me of Napoleon at Waterloo, but still he is a powerful thing. As said before, the picture is my own.

Workingtime: ?
Fin: August '94.
Colors: 16 nonAGA.

Cybersoul
The Whistle ordered a nonAGA intro pic for Dansktoppen 4. I finished this one in three days, but he didn't really like it, so he got "A Good Pipe Of...?".

Workingtime: 3 days.
Fin: October 1994.
Colors: 32 nonAGA.

Matrix Wasp Virus
Just when I had finished reading "Mona lisa overdrive" by William Gibson, I started drawing the paper sketch for this picture. It is the breed of my own mind.

Worktime: A week.
Fin: October 1994.
Colors: 64 AGA.

Hack Attack
This picture shows the final highlight in the book "Neuromancer". You need to read the book to understand. It is fostered by my own fantasy. After my opinion, it is my best picture ever, hmmm...

Worktime: A week.
Fin: October 1994.
Colors: 128 AGA.
