WHERE IN THE WORLD IS... Klausen Scherwinski? Well, currently in Düsseldorf Germany. But soon... #playgroundsInMotion 🇬🇧

MOVING LIKE A PRO! Very excited to hear Molly is moving forward on the cartoon I got to storyboard now powered by a brand new device by the best digital tablet company on the planet - #Wacom. Looking forward to drawing on it at #PlaygroundsInMotion in London, soon! 🇬🇧 ☺️ See you there?

OLD SCHOOL COVERS. How I love 'em! But damn, good old Thor is slipping on the blurb box. If anything happens to that damsel in distress it's the letter's fault. Clearly! @richstarkings.bsky.social would agree: Lettering can save lives! :D

New #StarWars headcanon!

No particular reason

XENOMORPHING! Visited the Frankfurt Film Museum to sketch H. R. Giger's #alien. Man, that was fun. #urbansketching #xenomorph #visualstorytelling

PERFECTION. #batman #reimagine 😍😂

Five of my books are in there.

KLAUS & FOLEY. Oh, look! That Ben Reichstein fellow interviewed me (and several other people) at #gamescom2025! Thanks for shining a spotlight on 1 storyboard dude and his flashy jacket, Ben! Everyone else, give #FieldAndFoley a follow!💚

TRAVEL SKETCH JAPAN! 🈺 In July, during my first trip to Japan, right after #Bitsummit I got to spend a minute at Yasaka Shrine, Kyoto. Taking in these mystical creatures was a treat for my visual library. Don't outsource your brain to GenAI. Keep drawing, kids!

Wow! So while I still wish this case would’ve gone to trial, and believe the amount given per work should have been EVEN higher, $1.5 billion in settlement AND the destruction of infringing datasets is still a fantastic start! Congratulations to all those involved as these things are not easy!

FINAL DAY to back my art book Carbon Based! www.kickstarter.com/projects/oni... 250+ pages of my analog drawings, 10x12”, $50, ships in March. All physical copy backers get a print of my b&w cover art. RTs appreciated. Thanks for all the support & putting up with my spam this last month!

NIGEL F. The liar who cried Brexit, today on the hot seat. What scum.

Heute mal ein seltener Post auf deutsch, da das Spiel nur auf deutsch erhältlich ist: Einer meiner Lieblingsautoren, Christian von Aster, hat ein Spiel entwickelt, für das gestern das Crowdfunding gestartet ist. ->

STORYBOARD ARTIST MEETS HERO. Meeting the Hero from Crytek's 2013 RYSE: Son of Rome at the trainstation of a small suburb of Cologne was not on my #gamescom bucket list but look at those details! 🤩

DEVCOM STARTED STRONG! Ran into wonderful #gamesindustry friends even before I made it onto the premises! Tuesday giving a workshop on visual Narration. Excelsior! 😎

IT'S THE CRAZIEST WEEK IN GAMES! Please share my #gameart portfolio review tips widely - most artists will already fail at the first one, (no, really)! Hope to see you in at my workshop at Devcom #ddc2025 or bump into you at #Gamescom? Be smart, be safe, be in Köln! 😎

DEVCOM. Travelling to Köln #dcc2025, and seeing you there? Join my talk on Tuesday about Narrative Principles or meet me at #Gamescom, Wednesday to Friday! Post here if there's a booth I should definitely drop by! 🙏

My art book Carbon Based is now live guys www.kickstarter.com/projects/oni... Collecting some of my best work over 20+ years in glorious b&w. All analog. All killer no filler. 250+ pages, 10x12”, releases in March, international shipping. Here’s a piece I did for David Silva’s awesome Cyberzoic.

KYOTO TO KÖLN! 🏆 My next stop is #devcom and #gamescom with me speaking about visual storytelling in games, storyboarding and beyond! Wanna see me sketch and ask me questions about working on #hitman, #horizonforbiddenwest or #avatarfrontiers? Then #ddc2025 is your place to be. See you around?

ART COMPARISON. Even #SaberRider insiders like me and @timoschouren.bsky.social can be mislead. Here is the original animation cel I recently bought at Nakano Broadway in Tokio and above it the shot from the episode it aired in. Can you guess which on it is? I'll post it in the comments.😊

JAPAN TRIP COMPLETE. Saw a castle, met industry professionals, fellow nerds, kind locals, sweated in the heat and bought a ton of merch including an original cel from #SaberRider and the Star Sheriffs, the animated TV show that made me the artist I am today. 🙏

SHORT STORIES. They're hard. First page of a four-pager published in Germany in 2024. Lots of (thought-) captions on this page. Hope the visuals create enough interest to read them. FAR, FAR less text on the following. The best panels are almost always those which have no text at all, indeed. :]

EVERYONE! 🏆Lewis LaRosa is now on Bluesky. One of the best comic artists in the industry and eternal art crush of mine. Please #follow him immediately, get inspired by his art, buy all his books and nag him to always show his process (love seeing his sketches). Thank me later!😊

KYOTO. Travel sketching at Yasaka shrine before heading off to Tokyo. 🇯🇵🤠

JAPAN! ATTENDING #BITSUMMIT2025 in Kyoto with @mollyheadycarroll. Making the best of it despite the rain and /or blistering heat. 🇯🇵🤠 Ping me if you want to meet up. Next up:Tokyo.

REFERENCE. Follow these two on their quest to provide inspiration to artists around the world. Now with extra sword! :) #follow (PS: Really love the attitude in both these pictures.)

AMERICA. The poor must get even poorer, easier to enslave that way. You'll never get out of debt. Your children will be born into debt. Even with out doing anything wrong - and don't even imagine getting sick. The American nightmare. Thanks to the Trumpublicans! :(

I cannot recommend USAGI YOJIMBO enough. It is--without question--to most consistently great comic series ever made. Reading this will make you a better person.

The US ban on state AI regulation may be voted on in the senate very soon. If you live in one of these states - FL, MO, TX, TN, WI, AK, ME - please call your senators & ask them to remove the "state AI regulation ban" in the budget reconciliation bill NOW! Link to call & what to say in next post 1/

CHARON. Old frontispiece from 2021. The ferryman over the Styx based on a design by Levin Kurio, head artist and publisher of #weissblechcomics. For years #Horrorschocker is Germany's only regular horror anthology comic book series and this Charon is basically the #cryptkeeper of the series. :)

Kubert Week for me. Watched one of Joe Kubert's old correspondence school videos. He inks a drawing at the 34:00 mark. Watching a pro ink is something I never tire of. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zt_j... There are a bunch of Kubert correspondence course videos, covering different subjects, on YouTube.

READ COMICS! I just read Solomon Kane by @patrickzircher.bsky.social and man, he delivers. If you're into cloak and dagger stories, and monsters AND believable characters in stunning environments (in story & art), this is for you. Issue #3 is coming out very soon I hear!! 🙏 @comicstitan.bsky.social

STORYBOARD GUY. When you see your colleagues rock out boards that would make any comic book fan swoon, and see how it translates to the final result you just gotta share the good stuff. Love the expressiveness & sheer quality of these frames that Guy did for #starwarsOutlaws! Watch and learn, kids!

really, really upsetting to see what's been happening at EA over the last several months. it feels like it's every month just about, another thing shut down. www.ign.com/articles/ea-...

SMALL TRAILER. BIG MONSTER! Be the first to get a glimpse into Molly's new hand-drawn animated short film about... ah, that would be telling.😊 And yes, I storyboarded that. 😎 Please share! #kaiju #noGenAI #madebyhumans #indieanimation

"Na ja, vielleicht werden die Kinder 2 Puppen anstatt 30 Puppen haben, und vielleicht werden die Puppen ein paar Dollar mehr kosten." - Trump zu den Folgen seiner Zollpolitik Die Kinder schaffen das. Aber was machen misogyne MAGAs ohne aufblasbare Puppen aus China?

HAPPY MAY 1st. A day and 80 years ago Hitler, being the fuqing loser that he was, shot himself in his bunker. If he had only done it earlier! Always great to see Nazis punched, also in drawn media. Few draw it better than Staz Johnson. And check out the thread, he has a book in development! Awesome!

CAREER! Join me at #SAEInstitute Stuttgart on Monday MAY 5th for deep insights how to rock a freelance art career in the #gamesindustry. Yes, right before FMX conference! Please share! FREE but seats are limited 🤓https://www.sae.edu/deu/event/freelance-artist-survival-guide-mit-klaus-scherwinski/

"NUKE IT FROM ORBIT..." I don't know what your favorite quote from Aliens is but as today is international #alienday here's an old #fanart sketch. Love drawing #grittyguyswithguns. 🦾😊

ARTIST VISITING GERMANY. You can now met THE Inna Vjuzhanina from the city beyond he rapids and get one of her prints. Signed. In person. And ask her for fashion advice if you're rocking dresses. The time is NOW and the city is #Fürstenfeldbruck! Smart of @animuc.de to invite her. 🇺🇦 #slavaukrainii☮️

This moment when the penny drops that trying to implement bathroom bans is an impossibility for the former Tory Chief Secretary Simon Clarke is delicious.

QUOTE. Take this one to the bank, kids. Especially art directors should make sure their questions about artistic decisions of co-workers in their charge don't sound like the Spanish Inquisition.

ANIMAYO FESTIVAL! 🌞🌴 My first time in Gran Canaria and we're kicking it off with a bang! Join me talking about #cinematics and #visualstorytelling on May 10th. So honored to be part of this legendary event and very thankful to Damián Perea, the Movie School and #animayo2025 team for their trust!

KIDS. One of the best illustrators of our time has arrived on Bluesky. Strap in! :D Great to see you here, Martina. Keep rocking!
