Sitting in the train underway to Christmas celebration with my family. So here's a greeting for the holiday to all you nice Diaspora-Friendica-Hubzilla people.
I have compiled some of my #katharsisdrill artworks (those I have on my phone) to go with the good wishes that I want to send to all of you.
Jakobu - Katharsisdrill
Page 75 from my comic - Phill from GCHQ - which is a twenty-first of December solstice page :) So with this: happy midwinter.
This comic has been the single most important work of this project. I have had the first album printed, and the second is finished and ready for a Kickstarter for which I have had a hard time finding the mental resources. But it will happen in 2023.
You can read the comic in its entirety here: Phill from GCHQ

Digital painting that I have made for my role playing game by stealing completely unrestrained from German late medieval and renaissance masters. His surname Tarms is in Danish almost intestine so his family weapon is well... The box in his hand have the tentacles and three eyes of his God, Nuln.
Not sure what to do with all these illustrations yet. Some have been published on my #Katharsisdrill website, but this one might have to be reworked again if I want to publish it.

A new digital painting - A Sea witch by the name of Procesa.
Made as one of my experiments with combining photo collage (the sea, and the wooden object Procesa is holding which is an artwork made by my wife) and then painting on top - in this case Procesa herself.

Two older drawings from February 2020. Just for fun and so they would not be forgotten and buried under the heavy weight of all the other things I have made.

Finally Ifeanyi Eluu's Professor Otagburuagu books arrived from the printer. I will be having a small reception on Friday so people who bought it on Kickstarter can collect them and maybe I can sell a few more.
If anyone is in #Copenhagen Friday between 16:30 and 18:30 you are welcome in Mette Saabye's shop, Studiestræde 25B
(Another random text I wrote - not sure how to tag them... at least this one has an image to go with it)
The cockpit reeked of spilled beer and sweat. He laboriously climbed into the seat and put on his helmet. It was dark outside... and cold. His hands shook, black dust falling from them like the stars from the green sky. He had the fumes of his body and the dirty machine hanging in his nose, a stabbing pain in his gut, an emptiness, cold and painful in his breast. It was not a picnic this job, not a fruit cake, not a biscuit of rose mead, not a sweet frog. He turned on the broiler and the stew. Checked the altitude and carborundum. The instrument boards were old and covered in porridge. He hated his job.
The lights were changing. Soon the machine would lift its skirts and rise into the reverse abyss. He felt his senses change, the taste of blood in his mouth became perfumed in a sort of bitter way. He felt the bodies of the other place press against his pelvis, For a second he hoped that it would become erotic, that the machine would navigate in the atypical way it sometimes did. But a short look at the sky told him otherwise. The patterns were there. they stood out in a darker, colder green - terrifying the shit out of him.
He could not remember if he had applied for this job or if he had been drafted. He pulled the lever and slowly turned the steering wheel while the machine roared. Down under the knickers he could hear that one of the hold ups had a strange, rattling sound, the whole hosiery was falling apart. He opened the little refrigerator and took out a cold Carlsberg Elephant beer. She would hold. He stroked the warm skin of the seat affectionately. "My love," he mumbled while she shook in orgasms slowly rising from the ground. "My love."
She was a Hogwhore 3000 hypnowessel and she had brought him safely back each and every time. Old - yes, but he was still here. Still able to crawl out from the cockpit every morning. The emptiness in his breast began to ache. Patterns in the sky churned and collided. This mission was going to be a nightmare.

I have been a little ill these last couple of days and have had a bit hard concentrating on anything. I have been doing some digital painting work for a friend that is to be used as material for a animated film, and I have finished the e-book of the Otagburuagu-project, but moving ahead really slowly.
This digital painting is what I produced yesterday after doing what I could for the animation project. It is one of the many pulp-fiction scifi book covers without a story that I have made the last six month. The city behind was something I doodled a while ago without really knowing where it should lead. But yesterday I sat down and figured out what it was - The entrance to Imperial Archive 5.

For the first time in a long while I have had time for some casual monster painting.

Today I was editing all the illustrations for the Professor Otagburuagu book because I had made a mistake when setting up the template. It have taken all day. After that I just needed some time off... so I made this peculiar painting.
Incubo means nightmare in Italian - I am sort of an expert in nightmares.

Not going to get the olympic social media prize this year. I have too much work and too little communicative fuel.
But... I have finished the frontpage of the Otagburuagu short story that I am doing with Ifanyi Eluu, (a young writer from Nigeria who I found (or he found me) on the block-chain SM, Hive). Next step is to try to sell some more of them here in Denmark before sending it to the printer... and maybe print a few more so people abroad who will support the upcoming Phill from GHHQ- Kickstarter can buy it there.
As for the cover... I am pretty happy about it. :)

The German Lovecraft society (Deutsche Lovecraft Gesellschaft) has a small article on my Lovecraft related artworks. (in German).

The Katharsisdrill project was always meant to be an outlet of whatever I produce and which I, for whatever reason, don't see any reason to put a fat, slimy copyright label on. Here's something new and different. A finished score of a small melody which slowly travereses chromatically upwards.
As Salman Rushdie just suffered a stupid and despicable attack by one of those morons who think that they will get a share of the glory of the rich, self-righteous or powerful, by doing their bidding like a thrall, I guess this one is for him. For Salman Rushdie.

Strangely, when you have launched a Kickstarter all you can do is wait and occasionally pester people... and then there's a lot of time for other things, so today I made this angry fantasy crab.
For the left side legs I used a cc-by photo by Simon Matzinger. I have redrawn them a fair bit, but they are still there somewhere underneath.

Together with the young author Ifeanyi Eduu from Nigeria I have developed the super-villain, Professor Otagburuagu, and now there's a long 30.000 word short story for sale on Kickstarter with Ifeanyi's text and my illustrations. Sadly it was only feasible to sell the actual book in Denmark and Nigeria, but there's also a €3 e-book that I hope some of you will find tempting. For more information you can see the video on the Kickstarter website.
It will also be a big help if you reshare this post. Thanks in advance :)

I have been busy with my next Kickstarter, but also found time for this uncanny piece.

Finally I finished the film for a Kickstarter I am making with my internet friend, Ifeanyi. We will probably only be able to sell the actual book in Denmark and Nigeria due to postal prices, paper crisis etc. etc. But I hope some of you could be persuaded to use a few bucks on the pdf. I'll be back with the announcement when the Kickstarter goes on air.

A digital painting i made quite a while ago. Not sure why or what she is. A sorceress maybe. As always it's creative commons and the high resolution file is publicly available.

A new digital drawing. It was made for the very complicated story I am constructing for a role-playing game with a sinister magic used in different magi-technological machines. I already posted something similar in this post: Norn and in this one: Whora Baba
This bloke is called Knudroff.
