[Pragmatist]

[stine]

stine

[razorreke]

[Lord Dubu]

Holy crap. I wish my Moleskins were filled with such awesomnimity.

[MattiasA]

Thanks all, yes theres some influence from Monty Python, just can't stop loving them, more old stuff tomorow then

[sith]

hahaha- that last one's hilarious- i don't even know what to say about half of these things- they're amazing

[squidmonk3j]

If I didn't draw all the time, i'd want to take a trip inside your head:)

beautiful stuff.

[Beershite]

haha! that airplane friggin rocks!
And those cities....ace!

[fooxoo]

keep posting things

[isair]

Haha, the dinos one is hilarious and so are other monolog pieces. The architechtures drawings are wonderful.

[tensai]

like i said, i really like your lines but actually now that i've looked at it again, its more the shapes that you draw. great stuff with a lot of humour, with the airplane being a good example of that. even though i've seen some of it before, its still a visual treat.

do post some more...

[Hesse]

nice ones :hatsoff:

Today houses from real life

[Sickbrush]

wonderful. totally wonderful. looks alot like what we do in our Architecture Faculty :)

[elisa]

hej hopp:)
har sett dina skisser på grafiskt forum, men jag måste säga det här oxå: helt underbara bilder! jag gillar allt! keep it up:)

[Bojee]

Very nice, some of it reminds me of Monty Python for some reason. :)

[CGMonkey]

You're a freaking genious.. sweet shitt!

[Newbs]

cool book. love the enviros

[Layil]

omg this stuff is amazing.

how much pencil work do you do under these, if any? they look so clean....

gorgeous gorgeous stuff, your imagination is wonderful.
have you ever thought of doing childrens books?

i see your pretty new to the forums...
welcome! please show us more!

[Alcian]

Amazing amount of detail, and that's such a lovely line as well.

[cosmicbeanbag]

wow. dig the style, line, tones, detail...hot shit man, hot.

[rblitz7]

haha OMG your style is insanely cool! You should make a book with these drawings.

[koppa]

wicked man

[flex mathews]

amazing work, i love your line. i first saw your stuff when it was featured on drawn blog.

[armando]

Great blend of representational and symbolic technique. I really dig this stuff. Had me laughing with the Vader, and Pope stuff, dinosaurs, Ha! Man, those cityscapes, Woot!

[Dreamworker]

The last update is cool! the eniviroments are evocative and inpressive with your style :). Did you create this picture directly with pen, or you study the subject first with pencils ?

[MattiasA]

The fantasy stuff is without sketching, sometimes some lines to get the overall composition, the eviroments I sketch a little more not to miss any important stuff, Thanks all post some old stuff again later today . Yes I'll do a childrens book one day just have to start focusing on something, work all days making computer games

[Jens]

really nice work man

[MattiasA]

http://static.flickr.com/88/221780393_4c73ec22d1_o.jpg

[johnny78]

Wonderful sketchbook! nothing more to say :)

[young paddy1]

Amazing work.

It doesn't have to be a kids book, just a book with your crazy mind flowing onto every page.

keep this stuff coming it is serious gravy.

cheerio

[camilografix]

great sketchbook.

[Jedmo]

Hey Mattias,
I actually just found your website yesterday through illustrationmundo and today I find this. Your drawings are very nice and I especially like the little details you work into everything. Welcome to CA, I'm sure we're all glad you're here.

[bunny]

Ohohoho.
I really really dig your stuff. The cityscapes are awsome and yer clever little doodles make me smile...
Keep it up.

[Dreamworker]

The butt monster kills me.

[Shylone_Breath]

wonderful works ! and very fun :) i love your stuff , tottally sweet.

[Rudeone]

Your work is so inventive, original and with a lot of humor and tiny details.
On top of that I think it's absolutely gorgeous, you have a new fan :)

[cakeypigdog]

sheeet man. your work is such fun. you should sell prints of it! i would buy one.
Its just really appealing. keep it up, nice to see somone doing something other than the usual array of sci fi nonsense and gasmaked fools. look forward to more

[JPW]

I would just like to add my praise for what it's worth. This work looks like the product of a special and unique mind. Your style reminds me slightly of Robert Crumb. You both seem to share common compulsion to draw endlessly. I'm amazed, and feel quite priveliged to have seen your work. Thanks

Do you have a website?

[MattiasA]

Yes I have, thanks by the way,

the blog
http://mattiasa.blogspot.com/
and the site, not updated in a while

Ååh...bilden med de rökande tuffingarna var hur underbar som helst! skulle lätt kunna ha den på väggen:) Alltid kul att se dina bilder!

[Meatsworthy]

Wonderful, wonderful stuff. I love the uncool pig one, I would hang it up everywhere.

[Dreamworker]

Dude... this stuff rocks, man. It really has a 70's sort of School House Rock sort of vibe at times. Wonderful, confident mark making. The scenes are top notch as are the tunes. Keep posting. Definately great to see some new sort of stuff like this posted around here.

Unlike anything I have seen in some time... great stuff. Those cluttered towns are my favorite.

[TomteOfDoom]

lol, "trafikstockning i lingonskogen"! I also love your rendition of professor Snape.

Awesome style, very much down my alley. You should make an "History of Sweden in words and pictures"-book and pack it full of all your crazy ideas, it would sell like butter.

Anyway, I'm subscribing to this shit so keep posting.
