The Rudolph Dirks Award 2018 and MYRE
7 years ago
Hello, everyone!
It's been a while again since I made my last journal update. Again, the last couple of months have been really crazy and packed with lots of work. I went to ComicCon Berlin in October where I had my own table as well as "outposts" distributing the German version of Myre, as well as book-signings. I met many very interesting people, some Disney artists, directors of Netflix, bibliophilic fans who never heard of the Furry Fandom before but now made their way into exploring all the goodies they can find here. It was a thoroughly great experience. Since I kept the number of conventions for this year low, I expected myself to make the last sprint with HoD and complete it by the end of 2018 hooked behind my desk and not going outside for as long as it would take me. :)
Not expecting to have anything major happen for the rest of the year, I received an invitation from CCG Dortmund, who expect to see me this Saturday. Reason for this is that I got double nominated for the Rudolph Dirks Award 2018 with "MYRE" in the category "Fantasy" and myself as "Best art in Germany"!
I still can't believe that my work would ever get nominated for awards! Even if I don't win an award, it means the world to me to be part of such an event and to see my name among such great submissions.

I am truly honoured. <3 Also, I'm super hyped for finally getting to work on MYRE Vol 2 after HoD made its way to the public! :)
Thank you so much for believing in me and for the great support throughout the years. These projects take time and one of the sacrifices I made with these is being around less. And yet, you never left my side! Thanks a lot for sticking around with me. :)
Also, I still can't believe this month. So many things have happened and will happen still. One of the things is that my old computer finally gave up which meant that I had to organise a complete new setup. Luckily, I got slowed down just a little bit. I continued working on HoD on another PC while my partner built and set up my new workspace. I'm that crazy about my work-flow.
So, I'm currently just 9 pages away from completing HoD I don't know how long this will take for me because the pages are very dense and complicated. It's still hard to believe seeing another big Yria project coming to an end. And I can't wait to let you be a part in it soon. :D
Before the release of the pages online, I will give you an opportunity to get early access to them plus insights with my Patreon soon. HoD will also get printed, for which I'm planning to run a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter. Of course, all founders of my original MYRE campaign back in 2014 will receive their tiers and won't have to miss out on anything. You're still in my mind, and i have things planned for you. ;)
It's all coming in the near future, and I'm working really hard to get the ball rolling.
MYRE is currently sold out in my store. If you plan to get your copy in the near future, please enter your e-mail address below the hardcover item to get notified as soon as Myre is back in stock.

Since Christmas is on its way, I will offer print bundles of Myre and my other artwork very soon. Stay tuned!
I wish you a lovely weekend.

Seid Black Sad hatte ich keinen Comic mit Anthropomorphen Kreaturen mehr den ich so gut an nicht Furries verkaufen konnte. Der kommt bei den Normalen Kunden ziemlich gut an.
Das freut mich wirklich sehr, dass meine STories außerhalb des Fandoms taugen. Ich tendiere schon sehr stark in Richtung Fantasy. Vielleicht liegt es daran. :) Und das ist ein super Kompliment auch! Danke!
just glad to hear you're getting that kind of well deserved recognition.
