Random Doodles 3!
August 28, 2010 | 5 somethings
Hello Closeteers!
I am currently trying to crash-draw pics for Negative to sign when I go see them next Friday, so I haven’t had time to draw a comic for tonight.
However, because my computer is full of random drawings, here’s a few for you 
Here’s Teemu wondering how he’ll ever put on this shirt. I mean, the big head…?
(originally part of the No Can Do series)
Those are the first Closet drawing I’ve done of Apocalyptica. Paavo looks retarded/psycho XD
An Edward Scissorhands sketch I have yet to finish….
Emily dreaming of Tony and Tuomas.
And finally this, requested by Forestdream:
A few years ago, Negative was on tour in Germany, and being Finns, they partied much. At some point, Rumors leaked that they’d somehow ended up in a brothel and lost a few thousand euros cash. I imagined Tommi’s reaction (as he’s their manager) and drew this XD
Do note that Tommi’s arms are so long that he could touch below his knees without bending in two XD
(of course I have no idea if any of that happened, because it was Finnish press and it matters little to me if a story is true or not, as long as it’s decent comic material 8D)
Next week I’ll probably be posting other doodles, as well as, hopefully, photos of the signed pictures ;D

Cello Trip
August 15, 2010 | 3 somethings
Mikko actually played contrabass on the title “Beautiful” on the upcoming Apocalyptica album. In live shows, he’s actually been playing his part on a cello – so I guess he won
Do you have ANY idea how really not easy it is to draw my characters face down on the ground? XD

Cello Case

Poor Paavo. After the rest of the band cut down on his extra activities, he needed something to entertain him. Also, since Antero left, he’s been looking for a replacement to tease 
Also: Run, Mikko. Run.
Prompted by this picture, published by the band on their Facebook page:
, and Michi, who gives me too many comic ideas

A Few Facts About: Apocalyptica
March 8, 2008 | Say something!
Antero pretends, sometimes, that he’s blind when he comes onstage. Many people believed it.
Mischievous Manninen…
Perttu is probably gonna kill himself while playing Refuse/Resist or something. But. He still holds strong. <3
Eicca + gaffatape = <3 + sillies
Paavo has so many things on his CV. Cello, ski, motocross, diving, teasing Antero, being teased back by Antero….
Mikko, we love you.
With drums. <3

Advent Calendar – Gaffaman strikes again!
December 22, 2007 | Say something!
In life you need 2 things:
a hammer to put stuff apart
gaffa tape to put stuff together
The hammer part could get messy.
Better stay with the tape.

Photoshoot
June 20, 2007 | Say something!
Middle spring. Apocalyptica is doing a photoshoot in the USA.
Somehow, Perttu manages to break his finger badly enough to be put to forced rest for 3 months, cancelling their opening for Metallica in Helsinki.
I’m still wondering how that happened.
(so does he and Paavo, in the comic)
And this is my interpretation. =)

Eurobands: Summer Fashion
June 10, 2007 | Say something!
(posted on this closet-inc.com on June 2nd, 2010)
This is a feature in two parts, one for Close Inc and this one for Eurobands. Their simultaneous publication on their respective site brought me the most visitors within 24 hours so far in the Closet’s 4-year history.
Among the featurees, 3 characters from worlds foreign to the Closet: Cat Casino (who, I learned later, actually DID sport a flaming sunburn at the time) from Swedish goth band Deathstars; Josey Strandman, from Finnish band To/Die/For; and Big Boy, Swedish/German musician featured on Eurobands (about who I can’t find anything anymore >_>).
You can find Closet’s part HERE.
