33rd International SketchCrawl Sydney - 15th October 2011



I assisted to the 33rd International Sketchcrawl in Sydney. This time was all about CBD sculptures. I included a map to make it easier to know where the sculptures were located. It was finally a glorious spring day! I've been feeling sick for the last couple of days, so I couldn't join the group BUT I had the chance to go there during the afternoon and prepare my sketches. Such a Great day!

Asisti a la 33 edicion de la Sketchcrawl Internacional en Sidney. Esta vez el tema eran esculturas del distrito financiero. He incluido un mapa para que podais localizar las esculturas. Finalmente disfrutamos de un glorioso dia de primavera! He estado enfermo los ultimos dos dias asi que no pude juntarme con el grupo PERO pude ir por la tarde y hacer mis dibujos. Fue un dia estupendo!

Manly Jazz Festival 2011





Last Monday I went to the Manly Jazz Festival with some friends. It was great music a lots of talent. I did some sketches. I was really impress by the quality of the performance. The guy on the Sailor outfit have an amazing voice. The crowd sketch is from the people listening to him. 

El pasado lunes fui al Festival de Jazz de Manly con unos amigos. La musica era genial. Hice algunos dibujos. Me quede muy impresionado por la alta calidad de las actuaciones. El tipo en el traje de marinero tenia una voz fantastica.

Character Design


This is a example of character design for my comics. You can see them in this one and this one. It's important that each character has its own build, style of clothing, body language, shape and even size. Also their personality should reflect in all those details. Even in groups of people that are quite similar to each other, those details are very important in a visual medium without motion as comics. 

Este es un ejemplo de creacion de personajes para mis comics. Puedes verlos aqui y aqui. Es importante que cada personaje tenga su propia constitucion, estilo de ropa, lenguaje corporal, forma e incluso altura. Su personalidad tiene que poderse ver en esos detalles. Incluso en grupos de personas con muchas cosas en comun, esos detalles son muy importantes en un medio visual sin movimiento como el comic.
