The cover before Photoshop

Just line and some sepia water color

The Bookcover of "Vampire in 7th. grade" - Seven new horror stories by Morten Dürr

for the cover of the book I drew another version of the monster Noh which changes shape. Since it was front and there was more space to detail, I decided to add a lot of tentacles (you can never get enough of slimy tentacles!)

 


The image is drawn with a Pilot Drawing Pen, sepia watercolor and Photoshop.

Food for Nanu - a horror story

Out in the woods live two man-eating, and very hungry monsters. 

One monster (Nanu) is larger than the other (Noh), and therefore it is the little monster (Noh) to obtain food. The food consists of human flesh - preferably from children.
 

The monsters can turn their inside out on themselves so they look like humans. Once they have changed their appearance, it is easier to awake trust - and lure small children home to the forest.
 

 
Young children who are eaten raw.

 

Besides from the sketchbook studies of monster-designs, all drawings are done in red crayon, permanent marker (Pilot Drawing Pen) and Sepia, Burnt Umber and Black inks and watercolors.

Illustrations for new horror stories from Morten Dürr - designing Azull

The horror book "The vampire in 7.A - and other black shock" will be published by Carlsen shortly before Bogforum (November 7 to 9). 

The book contains a series of short stories, and one of these is about the monster Azull who avenged themselves violently on a number of children who either did not believe him, or thought they could get away with bagataliserer his ability.

Azull can crawl through the ground and jump up, he has long claws and furry coat ..... the rest is my interpretation. Oh well .... so he tears to her eyes out on little boys and eat them .... or just to tear the arms of those tongue out and head of the little sister.

Killer Pigs: the not so hostile one..

Killer Pigs - doing what they do best .... kill!

You get one shot, don't miss or else.....

From the comming horror book "Killerpigs/ Dræbersvin" by author Morten Dürr. ..... The book is kinda of a modernday mix-up of: Alfred Hitchcock "The Birds"- (with pigs instead of birds!)+ George Orwell "Animal Farm - (gone really bad!)"+ The Documentaryfilm "Food Inc" + general fear of food additives and steroids.... a great mixture that can be read in the fall!

Spitting a Gargoyle in the face, brings it to life. The Gargoyle (a demon named Azull) can take control of other peoples bodies .... a perfect camoflage when he want to get close to boy who escaped his wrath 8 years ago... now it's time for revenge and to set the scores straight ... the boy has to die!
