A Little Help needed to win the A Little Help Project
By heiko in announcements
Great stuff: Before I even started working on the Hypnowl Empire (my upcoming t-shirt label – haven’t I told you about it?), I applied for AS Colour’s A Little Help Project. The Kiwi T-shirt makers are giving away a start up package worth $10,000 to the most popular t-shirt design as determined by Facebook-likes and sales in their retail shops in Auckland, Wellington and Sydney.
A jury of jet set t-shirt people picked the top 10 entries out of a whole heap of submissions, now it’s up to the people to vote the best. If you want to help me win the thing, there’s a lot you can do with ridiculously little effort:
- Like the design on the Little Help Project’s home page
- Like the design on AS Colour’s Facebook page
- Buy the shirt in AS Colour’s retail stores in Auckland, Wellington or Sydney or online (soon). Preorders can be placed here: dan@ascolour.co.nz
I’ll keep you posted!

Weekend Project: The Quest
By heiko in artwork
After several months I again had the time to make a little weekend project. No plan, no concept, just experimenting. Now that I think about it I might make a book out of it. What do you think?
Oh, and it’s also available as a print and more on Society6

Hello Hallo Guten Tag
By heiko in miscOnce in a while I send out promo postcards to potential clients. Most of the writing on them is printed, but I illustrate the greeting and the address by hand, which is also a sort of creative exercise. I actually like the address illustrations a tad better, but it would be awkward to publish my mailing list, so I hope I get hired by loads of them, so I can publish their designs. HELLO!
P.S. If you’re an agency, magazine, company or other that would like to receive my promo mailers in the future, just leave a comment or contact me at heiko at heikowindisch.com!

Hypnowl Empire coming soon!
By heiko in announcements
If you’ve met me or had a chat with me in any way during the last months I might have told you that I’m planning on starting a t-shirt label. Well, I still am, it’s going to be called Hypnowl Empire, and while it still hasn’t launched you can sign up for the newsletter here, where you’ll get news, updates and early subscriber specials. It’ll be exciting!

Karlo Marx Illustration for Der Freitag
By heiko in commissions
Now for something different: Der Freitag is a German newspaper from Berlin that I’ve worked with before on several occasions. Today’s issue has an illustration by me of Karl Marx. When I was asked to illustrate the article all I had was an outline of the article to be (a fictional interview with Karl Marx about today’s state of capitalism and what he would likely say about it now), but most of the time that’s all it takes. Also, I’ll grab any opportunity I’ll have to draw a bloke with a beard as magnificent as Karlo’s.
☭☭☭
Jetzt zu etwas anderem: Die heutige Ausgabe von Der Freitag (eine Wochenzeitung aus Berlin, mit der ich einige Male zuvor schon zusammen gearbeitet hatte) enthält eine Illustration von Karl Marx von mir. Als ich die Illustration anfertigte, lag mir nur eine kurze Zusammenfassung des begleitenden Artikels vor, aber das oft alles, was man braucht. Ausserdem würde ich jede Gelegenheit nutzen, einen so schönen Vollbart zu zeichnen, wie ihn Karlo dereinst besass.
