I live in Finland with my wife and my dog. I'm born in '74 so I'm an old fart already. I've drawn all my life and have this love/hate relationship with my drawings. Mostly I'm influenced by japanese manga and american superherocomics. My favourite artists are: Masamune Shirow (Appleseed), Kosuke Fujishima (Shadow Lady), Masakazu Katsura (Oh, My Goddess!), J. Scott Campbell (DangerGirl), Huberto Ramos (Crimson), Joe Madureira (Battle Chasers) etc. Most of my pictures are drawn and inked in paper and later colored with Photoshop. I also love movies - I have over 800 titles large DVD collection. My favourite genres are SciFi, Fantasy, Horror, Anime. Oh, and Star Trek is also close to my heart (I like DS9 most). See also my homepage at:

Now that I think about things - when I was learning to draw the comics I read were mostly american superhero stuff drawn by John Byrne, Alan Davis, Arthur Adams etc. I wonder how would my stuff look like if I had manga at that time. Sound like a Marvel comic book called 'What if ...?!?'.
When I joined Elfwood, I haven't been drawing anything for more than a year. Thanks to you guys (all artists of Elfwood), I got my inspiration back and have finished several new pictures with several on the works. So thank you very many all.

| 26 Oct 2005 | Oliver Jöhnk | Loading...I like you character and especially costume design. Great work! Jani Jinxter Mutikainen replies: "Thank you. You do very interesting work yourself. It's wonderful to be able to express oneself in all three dimensions." | |
| 30 May 2006 | Maija Viertola | Loading...You do some good outfit designs. Makes me want to draw my own rendition of "Cyborgie" or Dayryn from "Rescue - Bodyguard". Jani Jinxter Mutikainen replies: "Thank you for your kind words. Go right ahead - cant wait to see your versions of those pictures." | |
| 27 Jun 2006 | Joanna lesley wilson aka Scary Poppins. | Loading...Iwas rude not commenting on your art, the skills are amazing and I'm so envious of your work with colour, I detect a wicked sence of humour too, the way you answer comments has me serriously giggling here! Jani Jinxter Mutikainen replies: "Thank you. We do have very different styles and I sure did enjoy yours." | |
| 27 Jun 2006 | Joanna lesley wilson aka Scary Poppins. | Loading...I found your boobs tour, and I insist you come and look at and pass opinion on my boobs!(well the ones in my art) Jani Jinxter Mutikainen replies: "You do have nice boobs." | |
| 4 Oct 2006 | ArtCrit | Loading...YOU ARE A PERVERT!...there is nothing else to it you are a pervert and thats that! Call it what you will 'the apriciation of busty women' and 'our gorgeous curvs' ect... I hope you are single I hope you stay single I hope you do not hurt any woman in any lifetime If you do then i hope you die...painfully, slowly and alone (you are also terrible at drawing yourself) Jani Jinxter Mutikainen replies: "Oh my - Im so busted (bust - busted, no pun attended). Of all people visited my gallery you were the one who saw through my clever disguise and saw straight through to my soul and into purest but dirtiest form of myself.I am so shamed of myself and your comment did really sting - because it is so true. Because of your comment I will judge my drawings in totally new light. I will never ever draw another dirty image and will remove ones earlier done from gallery.Well ... nah ... I am happily married and would never ever hurt a loved one (or any woman for that matter). I hope you will sometime grow past puberty and learn some tolerance and learn to handle your feelings (you clearly have anger issues). It is shameful how you act behind your anonymous comment but lets blame your clearly young age (you dont know better).P.S. Still glad you liked my other pictures besides my selfportrait." | |
