Bookmark front!

Ok so the Gothenburg Book Fair (the largest in Scandinavia and the second largest in Europe) is in a few weeks and I thought I needed some self promotion stuff. Hate business cards and I thought I could do some book marks instead (since it is a book fair) and in the same time work more on my Krita skills.

The text says "Läs Mer" which is Swedish for "Read More" and I thought atleast the Cthulhu Mythos and Lovecraft geeks would get it :)

Wow! I've been a Lovecraft aficionado for decades, with all the books on my shelves including the RPG manual. This bookmark is really nice!

Thanks! Yeah I've been a huge Lovecraft fan for years myself - I have the RPG too aswell as the Trail of Cthulhu game (same setting but the rules aren't Basic RPG).
My plan is to just have some download link on my homepage afterwards so people can print their own.

If ever you're in the Netherlands, I'll setup a game :-). In the meantime, when the download becomes available, I'll get it immediately.

I might take you up on that offer one day.

Oh and I did another bookmark - there's going to be three in total (as long as I can get them done in time for print). This one is for kids litterature instead of horror.

Oh and this is the last of the three. Tomorrow I'm dumping them off at the printers and if all goes well I'll have them printed by tuesday!

Oh right, I feel like a creep for doing this but I just set up a facebook fan page... I've posted allot of images there... so its not JUST horrible and skanky of me to link to it here... http://www.facebook.com/JensReuterberg o)

Awesome. I like second the most - probably because of cartoon shading.

Cheers guys! My hope is that some publisher will feel the same way (I need to expand my client base).
The second one was based on a recurring comic I made for a magazine here in Sweden and since it was popular (or rather the style was liked) I wanted to push for it aswell.

Sadly I have to reinstall windows on my work laptop (I'll keep Linux running on my stationary) since I couldnt get the ubuntu installation to stick on the asus UX32VD zenbook and the nvidia card just plain refused. So you'll soon find me in the Krita for Windows thread.

Also does Krita have some kind of Facebook presence to like, hype and promote? Ive talked to allot of other illustrators about the problems theyve had working within the adobe suite and so far they've had the same complaints as me and keep looking for a good alternative...

I think there's something on facebook, but I'm not on facebook myself...
