Flirting

Diana and a girl she met on the back stage of a battle of the bands or something. lol.

Oldish stuff.

I didn't have a lot of a story when I did this piece but a vibe. As usual. That Zebra, Evelyn, is a character I came up with long before for a school homework but I kinda really dug the design.

I haven't actually come up with a name for her but the vibe for her story is that she plays bass in a punk band that is kind of a rival band for the Worndown Children. I haven't really...

Lil Elf

I remembered that is cannon that Lil owns an elf suit and nobody knows why. And I wanted to draw that. 

I think the reason is that she worked one christmas at a mall once and got to keep the suit but who knows. lol

Pastorela Undercover

"Pastorela Undercover: A Whodunit Mystery"

Or

"The Whisperers infiltrate a community theater Christmas play and have a fight with the devil."

I started with the Spanish version because I came up with this in Spanish and it just sounds funnier that way in my head. I'm still not sure how I will be posting this elsewhere tho.

Came up with this idea at the market a couple weeks ago seeing how they were already selling devil costumes for the pastorelas and thought it would ...

Tak

Here's Tak, the artist/graphic designer that sometimes does works for the band!

During the year Ive been doing some of these portraits for my OCs and here is hers.

This is a drawing I did to test CSP. See, I use photoshop since forever and the Thing about that is that I hate Adobe, I hate them so much. The problem is that, as much as I hate them, unfortunately Photoshop is the best Drawing software around. But with recent Al news I decided to try CSP and got to admit, it's pretty ...

Diana

Just a quick Thing with Diana. There's not a lot to it this time, I just felt like drawing something wintery or christmasy but could't come up with something quick, so I just started sketching and came up with this. 

Here's Diana, it's been cool lately where I live so I draw her wearing warmer clothes and she's walking home from the store after buying two coffees. Who's the other coffee for? IDK. lol

So every last Friday before Christmas The Chatcendres have a small christmas party With the workers of the music store Dario won on a poker game on the rooftop, and with the y...

TCE WIP 2

I got another session to work on this. Got most of the Line art done and redrew Lil cause she didn't feel right on the last one. 

I'm really liking how it's coming up so far. Even though it's being a little bit harder than what I tought it would be. lol. This is one of those OC pieces where where you start only with a vibe on you head and you come up with the Lore as you do work on it. I'm liking that part of the work a lot too. I can't wait to share it when this is finished.

Xmas Icon

High res version of what will be my icon for the month of december. 

I really wasnp't sure what to do for this one. I usually do my holiday's Icon with some kind of gimmick. Like drawing my characters in peanuts style, or turn my character into a reindeer. but this year I improvised and ended up with this cut out-ish style. Like a paper christmas card or something.

Diane

I did a Diane!  You know from that movie!

I sketched a Diane the other day during a break on work and I got to finish it.

I really like how this came out but at the same time I kind of don't. Like I think it looks good but I feel this is too static, very unlike the movie so I think I'm gonna give it another try to draw her later.

Sam

I wanted to draw the otter Waitress for the new Zootopia shorts series because, well, I love her. lol. I love her design and her short was my favorite of the bunch.

...

I just felt like drawing and besides I often talk about how I should start drawing more fanart.

I got this weird silly problem where I draw a character on my style and I kind of get some impostor syndrome, like who's gonna want to watch this in my style, or something, so I start again immitating the original ...

Wip Lights 2

I worked on this animation a bit more, I got the lights just how I wanted them. I also tried animating it a bit but I didn't liked it much, I feel like I got to start again with another angle.

Night Walk.

Not set there, but in the center of Mexico city there's a street, Francisco I. Madero, that, since 2010 was made into a pedestrian street and it's often cited as one of the most beautiful streets in the country. 

This piece would take place in a very similar street, even though you can't really see a lot of it between all of the people there. That's the place that I had in mind when working on this.

Here are my OCs Zara and RJ together under a light summer rain trying to get ...

The Worndown Children.

An album Cover!

That's more or less the idea. It's kind of a spiritual sequel of a piece I did on october of 2020 wich closed my Inktober that year. On that piece the members of the band appear next to the van and wearing fancy clothes around a fire place. So this started as a sort of informal version of that Picture. 

I don't remember very well how I came up with the idea of having them occupying so little space on the actual space, but it's supposed to give the feeling of b...

WIP Lights

This is a short test for an animation I have in mind.

The main focus on this piece would be the lighting, and with this test I learned that both, What I have in mind is possible (Wich of course it is, but what I mean is that I am capable of doing it) and how to do it better.

Love and Music

This piece was my first attempt to make a sort of sequel to a piece from last year titled Love, Music and Paper work. It featured Three characters on a subway car. A cat named Jhonny holding flowers and going to a date, a Dog named Trashcan holding paperwork and going to the copyright regisrty building and a mouse named Eve listening to music on her way home.

Well I liked the characters very much and I ended up wirtting on Jhonny's story"Jhonny just got off his job as a lawyer at a musi...

Diana Live Series.

The story behid this Piece is very simple, and This one is kind of old, from around I had finally decided on the concept of the band for my art and Ocs. 

It is the first piece of a series that was supposed to be album covers for live singles for the band or something. It was inspired by recordings and photos from concerts from the 70s and 80s. In particular, as I came up with this concept while watching it, Genesis recordig of a concert on London that formed part of the Duke Tour i...

This piece features a couple of characters I made up in college. They're part of a silly musical I wrote in my head during my trip to and from college at the bus while I was listening The Beatles. The idea ended up being something like "The Aristocats" and "Across the universe", It was pretty ...
