- hey! ive seen this icebear yesterday on my TV!milfhunter
- I will say that even though I know it’s cg (a lot of lazyboy critics on IMBD and twitters seem to be talking shit) it’s still really solid work. High5.Ramanisky2
- Also the one short shot of Kali’s memory of being in Iraq/Afghanistan war was also very well done.Ramanisky2
- what show?gattocerber
- ^ True Detective - Night CountryMorning_star

Just super excited for being on the frontpage of Playboy Germany. Such things don't happen too often. Super cool.
- congrats simon!sarahfailin
- Thank youSimonFFM
- Amazing man, good job! Just ordered my book today.eryx
- Thank you very much! Shipping will begin very soon.SimonFFM
- she's a beautyrobthelad
- ...and on the front page of QBN.pablo28
- @eryx I was super confused, because someone else with the exact same name as you but a different address also ordered a copy.SimonFFM
- Nice !d_gitale
- Beautiful! But I don't know what my wife would think if I ordered the book.stewart
- You’ll have to let us know how many Jims order from Detroitmisterhow
- @stewart I really hope you were joking or is nudity forbidden in your household by your wife?SimonFFM
- I probably wouldn't appreciate it either if there was a thick book of naked men on the coffee table, which my wife occasionally delves into. Nor would my son :)stewart

Here is a quick bts video from yesterday's printing process:
- Nice!
Printers be like:
'Gonna need to to keep some of these proofs....'microkorg - I'll give them books. Two big black trash cans were full at the end of the day (which is normal).SimonFFM
- My first job from 1994-96 was for a printer. The amount of paper and ink used is so much more than you'd ever expect. These presses look so much more modern.CyBrainX
- I remember the thrill of seeing your work being made like this.CyBrainX
- Simon, we've always admired your work but you've got the sense of humour of a German ;)_niko
- I know I look a bit tense. Wonder if I was more easygoing if I had more money.SimonFFM
- I miss the excitement of press checksprophetone
- Or the sheer anxiety/terror if you're old enough to have been dealing with outputting from raw Quark 3.23 packagesprophetone
- ^ Raises handCyBrainX
- print uuu matters.milfhunter
- Quark!! Bloody memories, godOBBTKN
- On a ZIP disk to boot!prophetone
- I can smell that video! Beautifulmaquito
- I taught a Quark class at a local art school for about 6 years back in the early 2000s. A true workhorsemisterhow
- I miss the world of magazines and press checks... that's all I did for years <3PonyBoy
- Simon, is the book dedicated to us?misterhow
- ^ it's all COTDSimonFFM
- Nice!

I am super exhausted and barely slept, because of sensory overload. Spent the whole day and longer in the printing house as I wanted to be there when my book gets printed.
They didn't tell me, they work in 2 shifts, so I basically spent 15 hours straight there, sniffing lacquer. It was an amazing experience. If you haven't witnessed something like this, you have no idea how much manual work it takes for the printing process. Even though it was my 3rd time, I thought, the machine would basically do stuff by itself.
And tons of paper went into the trash. Here's some trash poetry. Sheets of paper only showing feet and heels, I found in the trash overlaying just like that.
- i loved press passes, especially when i was allowed to work directly with the machine minders. there's s much that can be done at that stage.hans_glib
- That's true. I trusted the experience of those people. Everyone seemed competent to me.SimonFFM
- I never go to the printer. That causes unnecessary stress. My files have an ISO color profile, optimal for the type of paper, in consultation with the printer.stewart
- ...This prevents old-fashioned 'print a bit heavier in black' or 'less heavy yellow' discussions at the machine.stewart
- You can make business cards of the trashed paper. Or flyers and leave them everywhere you go.stewart
- I miss this so much. Punching up blacks and adjusting color on press, picking out dust, and standing by massive offset presses at full speed.monospaced
- @Stewart: My book was profiled, of course, too. But there's 60,000 € investment in this project. It's my baby. So the printing press was the delivery room.SimonFFM

In the new issue of Playboy Germany you can find a preview of my new coffee table book Mellow on six pages, together with a short interview that was done with me.
I am currently in Tenerife and therefore can only show these Photoshop mockups, but it's all real and at newsstands.
As I just sit here in the sun, it's hard to imagine that today in one week, I'll be standing in the printing house all day, accompanying the actual printing of my book. I'll keep you posted.
- Life is hard!
Great work, you deserve it.palimpsest - :-)SimonFFM
- Congrats Simond_gitale
- Congrats, I love printhouses, enjoy!OBBTKN
- I will be nervous though as this project is such a huge investment. But I will film it, too, so I can share.SimonFFM
- That will be great to see. I probably haven't been to a print run since the last millennium.CyBrainX
- Life is hard!

- what happend to its eye!? OUCHIErobthelad
- Yeah Boiii!!!ideaist
- You BASICALLY know Jodie, eh @loool?
; )ideaist - dopemilfhunter
- So cool. I wish I worked on HBO level stuff like this.CyBrainX
- I hope we get an explanation what happened to her eye. There was a lot of animal madness that was similar to the scientists' deaths. It could be connected.CyBrainX
- Nice!YakuZoku
- I'm loving the mystery, I hope it ties together in a satisfying way, only 2 left!robthelad
- don’t go on Twitter or IMDB .. the show is catching a lot of heat for the fact that only 2 ep left and story hasn’t advanced at all. I’m enjoying tho.Ramanisky2
- @loool your contribution to the visuals of the show are outstanding buddy. I can see all the hard work that went into it.Ramanisky2
- thank you kind sir, it's crazy how much time we spend just for the animal to show up for 10 seconds of the final productloool
- ^ yes, I believe you. Just know how envious I’m of you having this type of work to show to others. So jelly, lol.Ramanisky2
- there's a lot of trash that i don't show, there is way more of that than the nice stuff, pays the billz either wayloool

Hey all - thought I'd post the Photoshop brushes that I've made over the years. All 300dpi, and released with all the MIT open source licensing. If you do use them in anything, would appreciate if you let me know!

- Amazingly tastyCyBrainX
- always loved your logohydro74
- Now, that's just sublime.
Beautiful work!Continuity - Thanks! Unfortunately printed portfolios have a very limited reach nowadays. Most companies use that jobs portal thing and it’s all about GPTing your resume :(dyspl
- @hydro74 I’m blushing red :)dyspl
- Looks great!fisheye
- Can I get a copy, please?fisheye
- agree with hydro. very memorable markkaiyohtee
- That's fucking slick.garbage
- TIGHT!jabstract
- How can I get my hands on this beauty?palimpsest
- I’ve had very few made, 25 so far. I’ll probably reprint some but it’s really only for job hunting or freelance purposes.dyspl
- amazing book! looks so good printed and will absolutely stand out from the Chat GPT world. love your work! hope you're doing well too. long time no see.capn_ron

It took 5 years (with a 2-year pandemic break), now it's finally finished. My new photo book with 27 women and 35 short photo series.
The images have been selected, next week it will go to proof printing and then the printing plates will finally be exposed and offset printing will begin. Then the bookbindery will finish the book (which is more manual work than you might think).
And then it's my turn again to send out the books. I'm pretty much in my pants, because selling 1,000 books isn't easy. Wish me luck!

Something I've been working on for women's soccer. I'm not sure if or when it will be used. Any similarities to Stewart's font designs are coincidental.

I'm pretty over looking at my own book, and can't decide if 2023 was productive or not.
