Der ÜnderTag: Attention, Leaders of Tomorrow's Master Race! Wait a Moment... That's not our target market...Hey Kids, it doesn’t matter what you are: Punks, Skins, Rasta’s, Mods, Rockers, Keith Chegwin even. Everybody everywhere, stop snogging and listen to me. 'Cos if you're a wild-eyed loner standing at the gates of Oblivion, hitch a ride with us. 'Cos we're on the last freedom moped out of Nowhere City, and we ha-...that's not right either (sigh) I'll explain... No, is no time, I sum up: There's Pan Dimensional, Organ-Harvesting Nazis, Space Propaganda plastered with Giant Goose-Steppin' flag-waving, eagle-headed RoboToids ... and a vast UFO armada (German engineered so you know it's gunna Last!!)
Front Cover Art : Ernte (Trans: Harvest) Ern·te NOUN
   



Palette:                  

The above version of the delapidated propaganda poster featuring the factory made, gargantuan, goose-stepping, iron-eagled Germanic RoboToid Sturmabteilung is the artwork as it was originally intended : As a cover Piece for the Ernte (Harvest)'s short story by the author M.W Bodwes, looking for all the world like its been exposed to the elements and passersby for quite some time.
The two versions displayed above and below this one are examples of how the artwork can be adapted into different formats with a little forthought whilst still remain interesting illustrations for effective promotional purposes. They also advance the Cover's theme of a propaganda street Poster with its already obvious 1930-40's Nazi overtones. See also mystery-timeline-unexplained-bs-from-beyond.html

Mark Bodewes: writer - Artist - LarrikinClient : M.W. Bodewes
Brief : The Author sat down in my Bonsai-Style living room in front of my work machine plugged into a rather large TV screen (it's a SONY...don't by their phones..uuuurrgh) and we proceeded to nut out the look and layout of his short story cover art. Pretty much from the get go it was based on the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei's Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda and the delightful posters they created from 1933 onwards.

Medium : Digital illustration :the Ernte Cover art created was suprisingly created using Adobe Photoshop 2018 AD Artwork is to be displayed on the M.W.Bodewes Website and Amazon/Goodread websites andpossibly on a facebook page or ytwo.
About the Client : Mark Bodewes is middle-aged, half Australian and half Dutch but possessing of the combined awesomeness of both countries. Mark invented the term ‘Under-Nederlander’ to describe this union of nationalities…but mostly because he thinks it would make a cool name for a Bond villain.

Mark has chosen to reside on the Gold Coast of Australia with his wife & children. They are more or less ok with this arrangement. Without credible paternity tests his children can deny their parentage and still lead fulfilling lives. They refer to him as ‘uncle’ and tell everyone they are Maltese.

Mark is currently afflicted by Lyme disease which is pretty awful and makes him a pain in the ass to be around. He battles the poor health with grit & determination, channelling his formidable imagination into carefully crafted stories. His writing genius will not be denied, and he’s working on the mood swings. As a result he spends most of his time locked away muttering to himself whilst working on his next masterpiece.

In addition to supreme writing talent Mark fronts a hard-rock band that gets noise complaints from other musicians at the rehearsal studio. They come to complain but are then mesmerized by the intensity. Mark is also an adept artist but refuses to draw anything other than unicorns with chainsaws. He says he has his reasons.

Mark also loves to do many different character voice impersonations and has perfected the worlds greatest Chilli Con Carne recipe. Healthy & delicious…the chilli, not the voices….they’re often racially insensitive AND crassly inappropriate. Mark will say just about anything for a laugh. The Chilli recipe is seriously good though. He’ll share it with you if you ask nicely....
