My Bio
Hey there!
I'm Tobias, I was born 1982 in a little village in the black forest in Germany.

For more than 10 years, I've been working as a professional graphic designer / webdesigner and illustrator. I like to use pencils & markers but also do a lot of digital paintings. Besides my commercial stuff, I always drew things for myself, mostly fantasy & horror based. I've always done that and I guess I always will.

I am also a member of the MUCC, the Manchester University Comic Collective, where I was both a student and a tutor. We do not only give lessons on drawing comics and manga, but also about writing, developing stories and the whole process behind that. If you are interested, you can find us in my groups widget!

From the end of 2013 to 2014, I had a lot of personal crisis to deal with and as a result of them, I've made drastic changes in my life. I decided to leave design behind me and started an education to become a professional caretaker. I want to do good and help people. Believe it or not, my experiences in art are a big pillar of help for this, even though it may sound strange to some people.

I live and breathe pop-culture, I love a good glass of wine, a good book and an honest conversation. I have a wonderful fiancee which I love dearly and can't wait to finally get married, I love animals and cooking^^

To me, Deviantart is a place where I can show my works, look for comments and meet other people that like the same stuff as I do. I don't give a crap about the "artistic level", the experience or the age of a person. We can all learn from each other.

This is where I have my complete gallery, sometimes also with step-by-step documentations of my paintings. And of course it's a great place to make new contacts^^

Just wanted to say that^^ She's the most awesome and wonderful woman I could ever dream of. Even though we're separated by more than 9000 miles, she gives me the feeling of being close to her, gives me her support and devotion. Here's a little video of footage that we created together, plus me working on her portrait:

It's been a long time since I wrote my last journal entry. Lots of things to do, lots of changes in my private life: I broke up with the woman I was together with for almost 10 years. It was a hard decision to make but things just went wrong, for both of us. Looking back now, I believe it was the best decision we could have made. Didn't make it feel any better at the time, though. I was diagnosed with heavy psychological disorders and needed lots of time to figure out how to deal with. And I still am. But I can laugh again. Working as independent designer / illustrator got worse and worse. I noticed to spend more time with my lawyer fighti

Can you do a request?
Hey there^^
Depends, what do you have in mind?
Hi I must say your artwork is amazing especially the art centered on return of the living dead 3. That's one of my favourite zombie films of all time. the way you draw Julie in different art styles is worthy of an art museum. I was thinking of giving Julie a new look like a bikini or a dress in black. What do you think? Don't worry take your time I won't rush you.
Thanks for the watch and badge! :)
