No Headlines This Time

I just got my bike painted and I gotta say that I've never liked it so much than I do now. I don't know if the pics tell enough but the frame and fork are now rough-painted-black-red-purple.

Go To Hell

Trying to be daily... Yeah right...

BMX season has started and it's as awesome as every spring, I'm loving it.

New spots right next to a skatepark!

Linus's new dirt jump. Time to send some big tricks this summer!

I just painted my bmx frame and fork today so I tested this with Linus's mtb.
Now I want my own mtb again... Money would be nice.

Banging Banners

It was a foggy and a cold as hell night considering that it was the last day (or night) of March. Almost -10 degrees while taking these pictures. It's good that Ville had a better tripod than I do. Otherwise these pics would be crap or wouldn't even exist. I think it's also cool how the lamps appear almost like the moon does.

Ville's BMW under the stars.

The fog almost like shaped a roof for the road. I have never before seen fog having that clear edge.

This one ended up as my new blog banner. It's pretty different than the last one. Time will tell if I stick with it.

Abstract Accidents

It's been a while since I last time drew something but now I've been doing it on few nights. Let's hope I won't  get tired of it as suddenly as I started it. I also kind of hope that I'll get more tattoo ideas by drawing more.


Not so special or specially pretty but time flew while doodling these.

Dark Side of the Moon

I was on my way to bed when I saw this from window. I think it was worth making my allready short sleeptime shorter.
Oh and I had my last high school finals today, fuck yeah. Soon off to party!

Beautiful moon and clouds stepping away.
