Niklas the graphic-artist

[Ormir]

I'm sure a similar thread has popped up during the tenure of the old Dark Tranquillity forum, but I'll post this anyway. As we all know, Nikas Sundin is a great graphics designer and responsible for the design of Dark Tranquillity albums and their web site. I'm pretty sure he's also responsible for the ThereIn video (something about the style screamed Niklas). He's been involved in graphics design outside of the band, and at least the ...And Oceans album A.M.G.O.D is designed by him. I'm just wondering if anybody knows of other stuff he's worked on, and if graphics design is his "real job"? If you're reading this Niklas, I'd like to hear from you.

I believe that is the website you need to go to.

The site was nothing but a picture of Niklas and a message that he's having a summer vacation... Thanks anyway.
I'm still looking for answers though.

He has also done the cover of Green Carnation's "Journey to the end of the night" and of the first Autumnblaze album ( I can't recall the title) and also the logo of Paragon of Beauty if i am not mistaken

[Demonspell]

He also did th art for Andromeda's Extension Of The Wish, a superb progressive metal album I regard as the best debut album of this year. Hear them at www.mp3.com/warmusic

 

[Villain]

And didn't he do something for Moonspell as well? A CD cover or a shirt or something..?

-Villain (the demented one)

 

[atlantis]

A t-shirt for Moonspell....maybe "Sin/Pecado".....
boo

[rahvin]

nope, it was a t-shirt for the song 'angelizer', that appeared on moonspell's 'the butterfly fx'. it wasn't as brilliant as arch-enemy 'wages of sin' booklet, though, which is probably niklas at his best (apart from the artwork he did for dt, which is outstanding).

he also painted the cover for charon's 'tearstained'. if you're into sentenced, check that album out (or 'worthless' and 'as we die' mp3s), 'cause it's worth it.

rahvin.

 

[Somber Soul]

Add the cover for the latest MADRIGAL CD to the list.
