Ever since those images of all the dwarfs where released last year of 'The Hobbit' I always wanted to make a movie poster... but I never had the time to do it. :( This weekend I made some free time and I came up with my own Hobbit poster. It wasn't easy but I think came out pretty cool. :) Photoshop document, 74 layers.

Do you like Dream Theater, Evergrey, Pagan’s Mind and Ayreon? 
Then the Norwegian melodic progressive metal band Dimension Act is definitely something for you. I had the honor to do some artwork and it was great to work with Marius Nilsen (the main force behind the band) these last few months. All artwork in the Dimension Act Tab.

Their debut cd Manifestation Of Progress will be out very soon. 
Check them out!

Last saturday I had the privilege to meet and greet one of the greatest female singers here in Amsterdam... Anneke van Giersbergen.
She and her band performed her new cd 'Everything is Changing' live from beginning to end, along with some old Annie songs and ofcourse a true classic Gathering song 'Saturnine'. Wow... I've seen her many, many times live but this was beyond a doubt her best one so far.
