Comic cover x heraldry style

December 13th, 2012 by Robin

So for a while now I’m trying to find a certain set-up for my comic covers. It was quite a struggle since I want to communicate a dozen things through the cover. Well, by now I’ve made several try-outs and this is the first cover that I actually like :] I eventually found what I was looking for in the concept of ‘heraldry’ which basically allows me to summarize a character’s story in a single image. Now on the image above you see a young witch who uses her magic to charm and command cats.

Hey, thanks for visiting! I'm Robin, an artist from Breda, The Netherlands. You're looking at my blog, the place where I keep you up to date with my latest creations.

I develop my own projects (games, comics, roleplay adventures), but I am also available as a freelance artist for whoever brings me fun challenges and adventure!
Click on the icons to get an overview of the various personal projects I work(ed) on.
'Gang Up!' Is a comical cardgame set in the age of crime! I designed this 'backstabbing'- cardgame together with my partner in crime: Paul & also made the art for the game. After a succesfull Kickstarter, this game is now on the market!
'Fairytale Fights' is a xbox360 & PS3 game about the 'hack and slash'- adventures of 4 famous fairytale characters. After initiating this project I had the enjoyable role of art director during this project.
'Wizard Brew' is a comic about a young wizard that tends to get himself in trouble all the time. Issue 1 is done, more will follow!
Roleplaying is my biggest hobby and I've produced many adventures, which I often illustrate. Take a look!
I organize figure drawing sessions & join other sessions whenever I can - It's good practice! If you like to attend a session 'click here! ' (Breda, the Netherlands)
'Coffin Crushers!' is a comic about Vampire Hunters that use their Heavy Metal Mechas to earn a buck by crushing Vampires!
'P.I.G War' is a comic about the sexy pilots of pig-like war machines that defend the core of M.E.A.T.-city!
Chaos Battle is a condensed, fun, action game where up to 4 players fight each other to the death!
On a more serious note; I support the 'cure for migraine-research', since so many of my fellow artist suffer from this painful condition. Luckily things are looking up; click on the image to find out where we stand now & what can be done for you!
I'm working on some pirates here :)
