There's something satisfyingly anachronistic about risographs. I don't know any other situations where it's both about scouring old internet forums for archaic admin codes and having your hands covered in oily gunk at the same time!

Old Wurm

#artsummary2025 Made another kids book, that's pretty neat!

It's been a year of trying new crafts

Houses are hard!

I finally drew an actual comic (test) page for this project. Scary stuff!

Some out and about sketches

Today I got a 24 year old Risograph working, prints from computer and everything. My sense of accomplishment is immense!

Pets and helmet doodles. Still not 100 on the grain, especially with how it interacts with color, maybe color shouldn't be grain.

Made a little trailer for my new book. It's kinda scrappy but i'm happy with it!

Book arrived, think it turned out pretty nifty! #childrensbook

Currently grossed out by how many Swedish state actors keep shitting out low effort AI garbage. Like on the level that a YouTuber would bring up as an example in a low effort rant vid. Public-service is not ment to outcompete artist, like that's very much the opposite of its mission. Very slimy.

Some sketchbook pages from this summer.

Grand Jaloprix, the little dieselpunk vroom zine I printed earlier this year is now dowloadable for free/pay what you want, it's got the riso colors and lots of bonus pages 🏎️🏁💨 leavtcomic.itch.io/grand-jaloprix Ya une version francaise aussi 🥐🇫🇷

Last week my new kids book "stor & farlig" went to printers! It's out later this year in Sweden. #kidsbooks

Even more land.

I have put my old comic "Ward" on gumroad. It's still the longest thing I have drawn. I have been out of the Riso printed edition for quite a while so I thought I might as well put it up. 56 pages, $2+ vulgarirex.gumroad.com/l/kpqxu

Grainy fantasy people

The endless inspiration I have gotten from misunderstanding the term ”god of the gaps”.

More landscapes

Im trying to keep up with practicing drawing environments. There is still something off with the scale of things, but I feel like I'm getting somewhere.

Is a gold nib pen worth it? and if so which one to get? I tried one once and it felt really nice, but again so does most pens when you are not used to them.

Posting old art as an excuse to promote my inprnt? Or, promoting my inprnt as an excuse to post old art? Anyways: www.inprnt.com/gallery/vulg...

Is #mermay still a thing? Anyhow, here is a fish.

Almost done with my second kids book, "stor och farlig" (big and dangerous) Im particularly happy with this little crew. #kidsbooks

Im at SIS next weekend, I'll have some new riso stuff and a bunch of old riso stuff. Right in front of the stage so I'm actually going to be able to watch some talks for once!

This old drawing was probably the most popular poster I ever printed. I guess people like looking at food and dogs.

BELVEDERE issue FIVE, NOTHING-GOING-ON DAY part two. This comic was drawn in a state of overlapping frenzy and sadness during a period of around three months; it contains no stalling, indecisiveness or untruth: this, I think, is its point. Hope you enjoy <3 Free to read on my Drive folder.

Im working on a fantasy comic script that rests on the a foundation of gnostic and other apocryphal branches of mediterranean spirituality/mythology. Instead of northern European through Tolkien But I have two big difficulties/worries:

Kid's book spread that won't make it into the book. Script changed to much over time. #kidsbook #illustration

The Hunters in the Snow Brueghel X Bloodborne Happy 10th anniversary #Bloodborne

Ever only done one, back when the first gameplay trailer released I think.

I wasn't on twitter very long and I mainly just reloaded old stuff, but one of the few exiting things I was present for was @gobertillu.bsky.social's "cloaktober. Really great to just draw some weirdos in big cloaks for a month. If you took part you have to show some pics, here are some of mine:
