3DTotal : How much research goes into an average piece of artwork for you?
Michael : Hard to say, really. The idea usually comes in a split second, but after that the brain never
stops storming. OK, there’s a period you ‘Google’ or search for certain things you need to know, for instance how something is constructed, but during the process of sketching, colouring or
modelling, the mind always comes up with new ideas to improve the work in progress.
3D Total : You have a style which I would describe as ‘maniac fun’ in some of your pieces, such as the ‘rabbit strikes back’. Is this a release for you or do you really think that the rabbits deserve revenge? .

new piece called: ‘The rabbit strikes back!’. Nothing like your other work. It’s like a dark side has come out of you.” He was right on the money.
3D Total : What projects do you have lined up for the future?
Michael : I’m busy with my first short animation. The only problem with this is that it’s a lot of work to do on your own. So, this could be a long term project but hey, you were talking about the future, right? |

3D Total : What one piece of advice would you give to an aspiring artist?
Michael : I’m not a wise man, but the advice I’d like to give, is to do what you do best.
3D Total : Thanks very much for talking to us, Good luck for the future.
Michael : It’s my pleasure and thank you for this interview. |
