Doug at SelfMadeHero tells us their newly redesigned website when live this very afternoon and is looking nice and sharp and clear. The blog section has this lovely image for Chinese New Year by their Manga Shakespeare artist Nana Li (below) and a nice write-up on the new A Study in Scarlet graphic novel and information on existing and forthcoming books, like the tasty looking Moomins Cook Book due this summer (Moomins and food, two wonderful things combined!), go check it out.

The new site boasts slideshows of Ott’s artwork and photographs, links to his music (I had no idea he was part of the band Beelzebub), a trailer for a short film he created, biographic data (in German) and more, well worth having a look if you’re already an admirer of Ott’s work and if you’re not then its a good way to get a little taste of it, he’s well worth seeking out.
