Trick or Treat!

It's halloween time! Which means about nothing in Brazil, but I really like the theme in it.
I made my special thing for this ocasion for a first timer. I wanna start a sort of holiday card series.

It's the basic zsa thing ¨add skulls and roses to everything¨ but I really liked the final thing. I didn't want to draw anyone dressed up, though a RockStar costume came to mind.
It's also a rather small piece of drawing, from my sketchbook, not the usual 11x17 page and what not.

The colored and lettered part. Sending some out, so I included the blog's link. I like my actual website more, but the blog is MUCH more up to date.

Here below be some tests I've done for Quanta Estudio, the place I take comic classes at. It's part of a selective process. Still waiting back on word.



They are based on a Machado de Assis (brazillian writer) short story ¨Entre Santos¨. It's about this priest who found his capel's saints talking amongst themselves after a long day, and they mock the prayers they've received.




Colored version. I inked those strongly having the colors in mind, so you can see how the inks arent as extreme as the usual.

Here be some reference sheets for a character contest, for Editora Abril. I'm a bit pissed off about this one though. I kind of rushed through my conclusion project, illustration works to get this done, which I did in the LAST day, only to found out the deadline was extended to mid-December, where I wouldn't have needed to rush, and would have gotten a much better result, perhaps. Oh well. Let's see how it goes.




The ink work for the main characters.

Below are the color versions. The second one is final, with a more defined color pick.



That's it. Probably taking some time for the next update seeing as I have a fuckton of stuff to get ready for my conclusion project. It will be a rather happy post haha.

Excuse me while I get back to writing!!

Freelancin' sketchdumpin'

Hi there! How's it going?
First off, here's the BW and the color version of a illo I have out this month on Mundo Estranho magazine:

Inks. And after some coloring, and refining, you get this:

Unfortunately the moon didn't get to stay, but it was all in the name of a better reading!

I've been working too on my conclusion project. Some of the stuff aren't yet ready, but I'll show asap!
I've coded a beta for Pun Kroc, he has no moves yet, and possibly none till it's all done, but it will be a fine punching bag!


And now for some good ol' sketchings, some stuff that has been laying around my sketchbook for a while already...


Sigismond and Drum Jones, in their 70s look. (older)


Some of that boy I colored with 4 different colors last time around.






Now for some super heroing.. I only do those during comic classes. The ones with Superman and She-Spawn were done using references they gave at class.
Also, I think Deadpool vs Cable, in the Wild West is something I'd like to see.

That's it for now! Take care!

24 Hour Comic!

So heeeere it is!
Got done with mine. Unfortunately, unlike last year, I couldn't have finished it fully, but I'm happy with what was done.
Here's a colored hype pic from the insides.


And now, have at you, the comic! Enduro XX10!























Hope you liked it!

Octoberfest!

Hey there! It's october already!
And guess what? Tomorrow is 24hour Comic day! Are you doing it? I know I am!

I bought some Winsor series 7 brushes, sizes 0, 00 and 000.. which are still too thick? Or my hand is too heavy. One way or another. Here's a first test.


And a second one. Thought I'd try something bigger.

Accidently did some older quirks I had with a kind ink hatching. I got to like this one enough to color it.

I attempted to color it simpler. 4 colors, and also something i really like but never use, which is halftoning.

Remember the comic classes I'm taking? I tried a jab at coloring a classmate's lineart. Edson is pretty cool, not exactly my type of lines, but super strong work!

Coloring in CMYK is tricky though. I might be getting color lazy. Need to color more!

Now back on my graduation project.
I got a title for it, CrossRoads. The logo isnt all that exciting, but I'm confortable with it. It had originally drawn letters, but they were also illegible, so I resorted to fonts, and fuck with it. It's not like I can spend a long time playing around anyway, I just want to be done with my graduation project, and work on actual important stuff, such as the RockStar reboot!


Some pixelart comes next!

The cast.

Pun Kroc's basic frames. Gonna code him as a punching bag this weekend.

And if you wondered who's the last two in the pixelarts, here's the last 2 designs:

B.D. Best! Based on BB King and Elvis. The essense!

He gets pissed and moon-huge-sized.

The color versions:




That's it for now. Next time, with more sketches too!
