I like the dutch version Jansen en Janssen (it's a common last name in the netherlands, so it feels natural to us, hence it's a good translation.).

@jafo

Excellent jobs! I always wanted to have drawing skills, but never got the hang of it. My son loves to draw, so maybe I will live vicariously through him!

All of your work is amazing! Good work!

I'm quite amazed and dare to call your work borderline brilliant.
Your doodles would take me days to draw and would not come out half as good.

I don't know much about 3d design but if you ever do a comic I would definitly read it.

Thanks guys. I've been away for a while! Here's a few quick works as an "I missed you Abandonia" gift.

Also, finished my arcade stick. Works just fine, but I haven't done any art for the face of it yet.

ALSO! I finished restoring my very first arcade machine! Pengo! Works great! Just a couple burns in the monitor.

So those are some of the personal art things I've been messing around with. Oh, finally graduated from school too. So things are settling down a bit, hopefully I'll be able to start posting more around here.

Did I just spot a Resident Evil-inspired police chick at the first page...?

Hey Zafo,

That is some kick ass artwork!
Have you ever done anything with integral backgrounds?
I've got something you might be interested in - the picture on the first page:

Is really nice. I think it'd work well for one of the Flash games I'd like to make with Pandaaa.

Just simple ones like space invaders, arkanoid and puzzle games like tanzen.
Tanzen's a puzzle game, played with blocks of wood - the aim is to take patterned, variously sized shapes and fit them into one larger, specific shape. But, there are many ways it could fit in, but only one correct way.

I reckon that you piece Stretch Bones would be great as the reveal picture prize in breakout or arkanoid.
It's got that really good pointed feel to it, with diagonals to mix with the level blocks - the angle is just right for that game. And some other puzzle ones.

Have you ever seen the dissectional website?
http://www.dissectional.com
It was made for the band Tool ages ago - you start it by clicking on the flickering bit at the bottom.

Some cool background and a good shaped patterned or intricate image overlaid, to be rearranged into the correct form.
I reckon that'd be a good art game to work on.

I'm well up for doing some flash games with Claire - she stencils a lot, like graffitti and I am just shite. So we were going to try to do the art ourselves.
But after seeing your stuff, our's looks pretty lame!

Would you ever be up for working on the art for flash games? You could help direct the animation as well. Artists always have different ideas to other artists but often end up expressing the same universal principle.

Take it easy,
Pete
