HAPPY 2018 (ILLUSTRATION)

noreply@blogger.com (jangojim) — Tue, 02 Jan 2018 07:48:00 +0000

Happy New Year! Enter 2018 like you are unstoppable! Crazy adventures ahead if you want it. Plan those dreams. Work on some new skills perhaps. Try to become the best version of you.

This year my very first 2D animated series will air on Belgian and Spanish TV. It's called Elvis & Benny. Think Pingu meets Spongebob, but it's definitely its own universe. So excited about this. Worked like crazy on it all of last year non stop.

Already planning a few trips that I'm looking forward to: Leipzig and Berlin in March ( Millionaire's Club zine festival ), London in June ( Elcaf zine festival ) and very probably a USA road trip in September.

For 2018 gonna try to post a drawing every day from now on. Let's do thissss!
