No news, sorry
As we speak there's not much happenin' in Seamour's Scottish meadow.
Seamour who?
Seamour Sheep is a webcomic about a silly Scottish sheep called Seamour, a wiseacre mole named Marty and a cast of guest stars. Click on one of the portraits above for some worthless interviews with the lead characters.
The Seamour Sheep comic series was created from 2006 to 2008 by Seven's Heaven, a one-man company of the freelance Dutch designer and illustrator Metin Seven. In the same period a limited number of designer toy figures were produced by Crazy Label, based upon characters appearing in the comics.
Traditionally, most comics are drawn using a twodimensional approach, but Seamour Sheep's comic strip panels were created as fully threedimensional scenes and rendered in a cartoony style.
From January 2008 to January 2009 the Seamour Sheep comic strip series appeared every Friday in the Dutch national newspaper NRC.next, reaching an audience of more than 300,000 people in the Netherlands and Belgium. The paper's cartoon section was cancelled due to the financial crisis of 2008-2009, leaving Seamour and Marty heartbroken in their abandoned meadow.
In January 2009 the Seamour Sheep comic was nominated out of 150 submissions to a Dutch comic competition, competing in the finale to become the new daily comic strip in the newspaper De Pers. Seamour did not win the contest and Metin had to freeze the Seamour Sheep project because of a spare time shortage, to the expressed regret of many fans around the world.
Resurrect Seamour and Marty
If you are a publisher and like the comic adventures of Seamour and his fellow characters, then you're invited to adopt the silly sheep and give him a new playground in your publication(s). Seamour's new adventures will then premiere in your online or printed medium, your sales will undoubtedly triple and Garfield will become sooo 20th century!
All Seamour Sheep comic strips are created in 3.75" x 3" in 400 DPI, so printed versions of the comic feature much more vivid detail than the strongly downsized webcomic version.
Seamour and Marty are also for hire to recommend products or campaigns, as they love to be in the spotlights.
So if you feel attracted to our sheepish comic hero(es), don't hesitate to get in touch.
