June 20, 2009 - Matilda and I took some time off from work so we could shoot some pictures for the killer project. I'm pleased with what we got, especially considering the circumstances. For the first night we wished for a beautiful sunset but got cloudy skies instead. That problem quickly felt rather small when we were attacked by gnat- and mosquito-swarms. Fucking gruesome, but we survived with a few decent pics.
The second day was messy too, but on purpose, since we were both dreanched in our home-made and perfect-looking syrup-blood! (I wish we'd used more of it..) Matilda - the russian prostitute - had to play dead on a forrest path and we feared the syrup would bring the ants around, but they were not interested. Puh!
We had our share of other problems on that one though. It's hard to be the make-up artist, a blood-soaked model and the photographer at the same time, especially when the sun's too frickin' bright to see the results of the pictures in the camera! But again; We got a couple of photos to work with and the project is still going strong :)
June 20, 2009 - Yesterday I celebrated Midsummer with the relatives and other outcasts, as usual. (If you think that sound boring you're unfortunate to have been born in a family with boring relatives and I feel sorry for you.) I brough the camera - just in case - and got loads of pictures of my cousins baby Rebecka and drunk people. A few of them are up in the photo-section.
Mainly those I took with Matilda and Per during our little stroll at the beach. Unfortunately we were still lingering when the rain started poring, but the pictures we took down there were worth being dreanched the rest of the night cuz the sky looked sic!
Sic like in awsome that is!
May 31, 2009 - Siss helped me with my scanner-problem so I could finally add a drawing I made in the book a while ago. By the way, I should probably mention that I'm not making any notes on this page about updates in the blog. I've made quite a few updates since I started it so if you missed them you should take a look.
Time goes by so quickly it drives me completely fucking crazy. I have all these ideas and projects planned but when will I have time to do them!? For fuck sake..!
May 3, 2009 - New layout, as you can see (featuring an illustration by Chris Jennings), and with that a few changes. There are two new main-site categories; a blog and a new photosection, both updated with stuff. More updates to come..
My scanner is still not working (and while trying to fix it I managed to fuck up the writer too, go me..) so I can’t add my latest black-book drawing. I suck.
April 27, 2009 - There is so much I need/want to update the site with, but since I got my new computer - or my new screen - I can’t stomach the look of many of my sites, including this one (It was fine to see them look like this on other peoples computers, but I can‘t really live with it myself all the time.) My point is; I need to make another layout before there will be any updates and jeez, it’s hard to come up with something good for this site! I’m also having some trouble with the scanner…
The sidekick is away so there haven’t been any more shoots for the Killer Project, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been taking pictures. I love my camera so much it’s redicilous and I recently ordered a camera tripod, which hopefully will be here in the end of the week. Having some problems with finding victims people willing to model though.. Luckily Per and Viktor are always there for me.
March 29, 2009 - Fixed two more shoots the weeks before Matilda headed back to Stockholm, and it worked out great again. Unfortunately I can’t post any pictures from them without revealing how the final pictures looks like (and we don’t wanna do that, do we.) Took in some extra help again, on both shoots. A big thanks to our models Per and grandma! And even though she wasn’t a model this time we owe Frida a major frickin’ thanks for the things she fixed for us! We’ll surely mention you all in the book ;)
I’ve gotten a lot of drawing-work lately. Two album-covers and three children (plus two more coming). Yikes!
March 7, 2009 - Today we had the photoshoot with Frida. She was a bit nervous, but she did fine and we ended up with a whole bunch of nice pictures (“Nice” isn’t exactly a fitting word for the type of pictures we were taking, but whatever, lol) Found one I want for the book, but many that looked really good overall. Might end up on deviantart some day.. The best thing with the whole shoot (except the great models of course;) was the lightning, which – as always – was a total fluke. No need for PaintShop-adjustments there!
For some reason everything seems to go our way in this project. Costumes, weather, lightning, you name it. Jeez, I’m nervous for that wall we eventually might run into!
March 6, 2009 - Before the planned photoshoot with Frida tomorrow Matilda and I managed to get another one in last week. It was another success (as far as we are concerned) but it involved a clown! Clowns are frickin’ creepy. (That is why I love them). Even if it’s just Matilda hiding under that white face it is still pretty much frickin’ creepy. Seriously!
We were very lucky with weather and timing. Most of the snow had melted just one or two days before, and we were finished right before the sun was low enough to start screwing us over with unwanted shadows and stuff. It was a little bit chilly, but it beats many of the sunny sweaty shoots we’ve had before. She sky looked fabulous as a background!
By the way, Matilda had to drive us to and from the location with the makeup on! lol. We were a bit nervous to get into an accident or something like that, but we got away with some funny looks... ;)

On another note; Shqipe (or Nore on her behalf) gave me two days to make a birthday-present for a friend of hers (Portrait of the friends kids.). I made it, as I usually do. Deadlines are good..
February 16, 2009 - We officially started the “Killer Project” a few days ago, with our first photoshoot. Matilda was the model and I took the photos with my wonderful new camera. There were some wardrobe/makeup fuckups and the original ideas we had planned didn’t work out at all, but we came up with new ones that in the end worked even better.
We will definitely have trouble deciding on which one of the favourites will end up in the book, and that’s a luxury-problem! None of these though…
Wanted some new blood on our next one so we’ve asked Frida to step in as a model (with Matilda). It will hopefully be a really fun experience for all of us!
February 7, 2009 - If you’re wondering what’s going on with the painting I can inform you that I haven’t given up on it or anything. ‘X Files’ spoiled the flow I had going on, and now it’s just really hard to make time for it. Finally uploaded the last 2 photos though..
I’ve also made a page for Just Dom Där (the photobook). Every single page from it is up there so if you haven’t seen it yet.. what are you waiting for!?
And with that; The vink/sidekick-duo are at it again! After much talk and a few fantastic ideas (unfortunately way to complicated for us to execute) we have finally decided - and started – on our next project, which we call our ‘killer project’. This time it’s not exclusively about photos, but they have a big big part in it of course. We’re both superexcited! But I’m not going reveal more for now.. ;)
I’d been thinking about getting myself some fancy system camera, and my own little camera gave me the perfect excuse to do so the other week when it decided to get all fucked up on me. Just ordered a Sony DSLR-A200. Can’t wait to get my hands on it!
