Description
Finally made myself some kind of an ID.. a quick digital drawing made in the same style as my recent illustrations. So it's me and my workdesk at home, loaded with all kinds of stuff as usual.. My expression was supposed to be something betweenRelated content

Reminds me of Atrus a bit. With the tired yet keen eyes behind the glasses. Always too much to do.
I guess you are used to hearing how great your artwork are. So I wont mention it, yet. Will keep my eyes on you henceforth.

I'm not familiar with Atrus, but I'll take your word for it. Description sounds about right.
And thank you very much!

You're not? With so many interests I thought you might. He's one of the main characters in the game Myst and it's sequels. You should give them a go.

Most likely one of my all-time favorite drawings, and it's a portrait. I'm amazed - I'd usually choose something fantasy-related, like your other pieces, but this is marvelous.

Wow, really..? Thank you! I thought it was rather sketchy myself, so I made a new ID.. but I'm glad to hear you like it!

Your new ID is amazing as well! Sketchy or not, you really know how to put things together on paper.

You have an ID now!! You have pleased *Verwildert . I'm so arrogant I linked myself to my own page... Ha ha... >_>
I really like this... everything, from the gun on the desk (awesome!), the dice, small figurines, laptop, books, pencil and wacom.. and .. is that a katana I see? This captures little pieces of you, and portrays your interests in a great way. And that look.. on your face... it makes me smile. You look peeved and it suits you well. Yes indeed... this makes for an excellent ID.
P.S.- you look cute with glasses... but then again, I like glasses...

Now i am most delighted to lear that my petty efforts of small consequence have pleased You, Milady.
I will ever remain Your most humble servant. *bows down low*
Hmm.. i wasn't supposed to make myself look angry but rather looking somewhat tired/foiled/bewildered.. the kind of "just look at this now.."-look. But i guess i look rather gloomy most of the time.. But even that is better than smiling, since i look (even more) like a complete idiot when i smile.
Yes, well.. just for the record, i don't keep my gun laying around on the desk -- it's locked up and unloaded and kept separately from the ammunition. And that's indeed a katana.. a souvenir i bought in Kyoto a little over a year ago..
In the end there was not enough room for everything in the pic.. i wanted to include more books, some Jyhad cards, an African Waraxe, one or two of my guitars, some harmonicas, Czech Beer, Italian food, possibly a game or two, a shooting target, flight tickets, fancy shoes, red wine, a snow sculpture and some great architecture in the background.. Yeah, and some beautiful women too, but now i think i'm starting to detach from reality..
Anyways, there's quite a lot in this one already, i guess it'll do for the time being!
Ehh.. if you say so. Glasses can be annoying at times and these are no exception.. but i like how they look, even if they are about to break all the time and the lenses are not exactly the correct.. strength, is it? But it's a long story.. nevermind.

You can always do ID version 2 at a later time.... when you're not busy... which is never.

Ah.. sad but true.. I can't remeber a time of my life when i wasn't busy.. there're only slight differences between "busy", "busy as hell" and "insanely busy" ..that's my life. But i'm the only one to blame for it..

I just thought that same old face was boring, so i added a few more.. i'm not too sure about it, though.. it's somewhat restless and erratic.

My desk is messier than yours
Is it 'Dune', that book on the bottom? And is it katana on your desk? Man, I really wuld like to have one (and it doesn't have to be Hattori Hanzo one, let's not be greedy )

You should see my desk at work.. or at our office!
Yeah, that's Dune.. i bought a copy for my brother for Christmas and got myself a new hardback copy in English at the same time.. i'm trying not to get into reading it again yet! And yup, that's a katana that i bought in Japan about a year ago.. a rather cheap one, though.. not really Hattori Hanzo!

Ah, you should read all the other parts of Dune "God Emperor" is my favourite. And I will surely buy myself a katana one day

aautio In reply to Elenai [2006-01-12 18:31:37 +0000 UTC]
I guess i should.. i've only read the original Dune.. several times. One of my favourite books of all time. Someone once told me that the new Dune books sucked, so i've been avoiding them.. didn't want to ruin the magic of the original story. But i guess that's only the newest ones that were not written by Frank H. himself any more..? I'll have to look into it.. i might draw some Dune stuff too, once i've started reading the original again
(already did one drawing of a Fremen warrior for my brother for Christmas to accompany the book.. but i didn't have time to scan it..)

Elenai In reply to aautio [2006-01-29 21:53:14 +0000 UTC]
I haven't read the Dune books that weren't written by Frank Herbert, so I can't tell.. Personally, I think the second volume isn't very good, but I like all the rest, even if they are much more complicated. I mean, in the first Dune Harkonnens were bad and Atreides were good, and Paul's motivation was quite simple - righteous revenge and gaining power, and in other parts it gets more complicated - the power means dealing with corruptnes and fighting all the time, and his future-seeing powers mean responsibility.. And so I think the other parts are darker, and perhaps don't have that freshness and energy as the original Dune, but every time I start reading any of them, I can't stop, and it means they are still interesting, at least in my opinion And I have huge sentiment for 'God Emperror', I guess for two main female characters, and ofcourse Paul's son himself
Oh, and draw something Dune-related I would love to see that, there is not much of it onthe web unfortunately..

Niice. I'm lovin' the messy desk, and your expression reminds me more of a mix between the confused emote and the emote^^ all in all a sweet portrait.
Looking at it has me thinking of something similar....maybe.....

You look nice. I cannot read the title of all the books, but the majority they seem of tolkien ^^.
Also I have a lot of interests and Tolkien occupies a special place
you usually draw with the tablet?

Thank you. i've had my table piled up with HoMe volumes and other Tolkien stuff lately while working on those Tolkien illustrations.. I've been a fan for more than 15 years but i got the inspiration for doing illustrations again only recently.

Awwwww.... you're cute! Your expression seems to be more like "the hell? get out of my room before I kill you with one of my various weapons." ^^
I like your hair, it's cool! And your glasses... I love glasses. I wish every guy would wear glasses, even if he didn't need them.
Great work, Mikko! I don't know exactly what you look like, but I'm pretty sure this is as close as a drawing can get! ^^ A favourite, for sure!
