"For a while, they sat there side by side, watching the stars performing their eternal ballet, enjoying being in the centre of it all. It was the perfect brother and sister moment."

Its that time of year again - the time for me to go all out for my brother's birthday :D

While I don't have as many drawings coming, I do have this, which is the cover of a book I am writing for him (two and a half more chapters to go).

The title is UWI: United with Infinity. There will be more than one book (the first - the one that's almost done - is Dancing with Change)

Its a story about my brother and myself turning into interdimensionals and going on a quest to save our parents from Zone –x.453cd.

Interdimensionals are a race made of static and dark matter comparable to Japanese shinigami or British Time Lords. In all honesty when I invented them I didn't realize that Philip Pullman already had creatures made of dark matter (angels, no less :P) in the His Dark Materials series. They're a bit different than most "grim reaper" characters since their realm of influence is "fate" rather than "death" specifically (so birth, destiny, potenial, death, natural disasters, etc).

In this picture, Andrzej and I are in interdimensional form, which is why our eyes are kinda blank. They're supposed to show the time Vortex but they were too small to really show that :P

The stars in my hair are based on Elisabeth's hair stars (the musical Elisabeth was a huge influence on this story, as was Doctor Who).

I'm actually sitting on a real star. The one I'm holding in my hand is a star I saved from exploding as a supernova (thus changing the course of history . . .)

My pocket watch is based on one I really have, and represents my connection to fate. Notice how it has various hands of different shapes and sizes, representing the fact that, from Aleks' perspective, all of time is occuring stimultaneously.

My brother's sword will probably not be featured in the story. His weapon will be Robin Hood's bow and arrow. I just thought it would look epic, and he likes epic :D

I couldn't think of better outfits for them, so I went for the traditional black colour of such characters but with the star details to show their interconnection with the universe and its fate. They're both wearing the same androgeous cat suit because interdimensionals don't really show their personalities in clothing and because they've just transformed, so they haven't really thought of anything special to wear in their new form. They'll have better costumes when they go to different places and times.

The word "uwi" is a nickname my brother and I share. Here's where we got it (because this man is stubborn and persistent like us): [link]

I made up the acronym. I hope Mr. Uwe Kroger wouldn't be too offended, although knowing the rapport I have with Der Tod (as :iconoiahavanah:, :iconzuuh: and :iconcatlover3000: know) I am probably in for it.

To Der Tod: by all means go ahead and make up an acronym for my name, so long as its not in German :P
