OLA!
I'm posting a couple of pages from various sketchbooks, I'm not sure this is the right forum for this kind of work, but here goes.
All samples except the "Stora Kornö" are from sketchbooks. Stroa Kornö is a life study of my fathers birth place a small Island on the west coast of Sweden called Stora Kornö.

I really like your style:) Nice and original designs too...

Also like last drawing "Stora Korno" , it has got nice realistic styling.

Do you draw with ink or its scanned pencil?? I would also like to know how do you manage perspective - do you draw vanishing points etc or draw your sketches directly "by eye"?

Thanks for your reply:D

Thank's for the reply, Its Ink. I draw with a Mountblanc resorvair pen, when sketching from the imagination I draw by eye, the motive kind of evolves during the work.
The "Stora Kornö" I start with a ruff drawing whith a pencil and then by Ink, just to get the perspectives right, sometimes I use wash as well.
I used to make some extra money in the summers by making these kind of drawings.

Nice work. 5th element is one of my favourite movies. Your architecture and vehicles are very well executed in the spirit of 5th element. I really like all the details, there is much to look at and discover.

Yes I'm not going for anatomical correctnes in my sketches, I'm more interested in a comic quality. As for the 5th element it's not something I planned when doing this sketch, At the end there was alot of white paper left, flying cars was something to fill out the terrible void.

I´m really fond of the style you are using; the rough lines and the ironic humour! They remind me of a Swedish artist that paint sarcastic political art.

I love the monkeys! :applause:
