"The best way to predict the future is to create it."


Funny thing this is the quote I saw today while writing down a mail to a friend of mine, because in fact that is what I want to do over next days in fact the mail was having some lines on that matter.:)
The past week has been a bit rough and painful in terms of who to be with, what to do, how to deal and how to feel and where to go, in the overall what I learned is that I want to be proud and happy doing what I like and be respected.
I am discovering that I am really full of flaws and things I want to change from me and how I react at things and at people, so I hope to be in the right track and I hope to evolve in a nice better way in a daily basis.
I have so many things to make amends and to give the wrapping up in terms of my emotional life and also my professional life.
Expect some new work and news about it!

Have a great day!

I am loading this time something new (I hope Editorial Acervo do not mind) :), this is one of the pages of the work I did for the comic HORRORES BREVES.
Get your copy in Mexico!!!

THE PIXIES

What really pixies me off (hahahah sorry for the lame joke here...so sorry indeed..hoho!) is that I am one of those dumb guys who never appreciated THE PIXIES till now..damn it is really funny to see where all this grunge appeared and how many groups I liked from grunge where influenced by them. (so many sounds of them in Nirvana or Smashing Pumkins).

This is my reccomendation of today!!

HERE COMES YOUR MAN


MONKEY IS GONE TO HEAVEN

Teacher´s Day!


I dunno this day was a bit harsh; I have already made up my mind about calling the quits to many things, funny but tomorrow is the Teacher´s Day in my country and I will ask for a permit to abandon my teaching in the University where I have been for over 8 or 9 years... (this permit at least from my part is to see if I will continue or stop my teaching in that place) the good part of the day is that my children from the public school were I teach in the mornings sang to me wishing me a good teacher´s day..that kind of things are the ones that keep me up in track).
Funny things of the day is that yesterday while being in Las Luchas my best friend Mariana told me that is pregnant and expecting the baby over Dec.:)
Sad part is that I have a very good friend of mine very sick and this is the first time that I do not know how to help him! :(
Me over pressured sometimes I do not understand how people react or assume things but well I am just dealing with it and be happy!!

Have a great time!!

Luchas Night!!!! Not too much to say!








I wanted to post this earlier but I had to respond to something I was required to some hours back!!!
The highlights of the show were some of the town wrestlers and the match done by NEGRO NAVARRO, OLIMPICO VERSUS MASCARA AND SOLAR...A beautiful match!.
Last match well nothing much to say about it, it was so fast I guess that 20 minutes tops, Sangre Azteca as usual a great wrestler, Alex Koslov normal, Mistico normal nothing different from his routine, Black Warrior (I will be honest I remember in the old times when He was wearing a mask was an amazing, amazing wrestler, now for a weird situation He is not wrestling like He used to do it in the past)!
The good part of the day is that my sister in law save some money to buy my nephew his first toy ring!

I forgot it...one of my best friends ever MARIANA told me in Las Luchas that She is expecting a baby from her husband and I am really happy for her!!
Kuddos for you Mariana!! Yay!!!!


Have a great day!!

PROCESS OF WORK.

Hola a todos esta vez me tomo un tiempo para explicar como desarrollo una portada ya que esta aprobada en los prebocetos y platicas anteriores.
1.-Ya cuando se ha aprobado el boceto lo que me pongo a diferenciar son los valores tonales o de alto contraste de la pagina en terminos visuales y como el lector los va a recibir en su cabeza.
2.-Se decide de que manera va a manejarse la portada en este caso como es un tipo poster se manejo el lado horizontal.
MI intención era manejar al Dr. Wagner Jr. sobre todo con el concepto "Como disfruta la lucha y el barullo que provoca, y la imagen de el rompiendo una mascara"

Hey guys, I am taking my time to explain the developtment on working a Cover, after I received the approval based on the pre/design and previous talks.
1.-As soon as the sketch is approved, I take my time to check the tonal values, high contrast and terms of Harmony in the page in terms of visual elements and the way the reader will perceive the art.
2.-It is decided how to attack the Cover and i this case as knowing it is a Pin Up I decided to use the horizontal side.
My intention is to handle Dr. Wagner Jr over this concept THE WAY HE ENJOYS WRESTLING AND ALL THE BIG FUSS MADE BY HIM WHILE TEARING APART A MASK.





3.-En esta parte muestro que ha veces todo lo tengo friamente calculado y a veces no, como en este caso ya sabia como tenía que establecer al personaje principal aka Dr. Wagner Jr. pero en este caso no tenia idea de que poner en la parte de atras, cuando estuve pensando en la parte emblematica de él recorde el diseño de su mascara y pues decidí utilizar la parte derecha para poner el diseño o una reminiscencia y dejar que el trabajo de color balanceara la parte izquierda del proyecto.
4.-si se dan cuenta en este caso lleve a la par el trazo a lápiz y el entintado, sobre todo para ahorrar tiempos, normalmente trazo el dibujo a lápiz y después entinto, bueno la verdad a veces depende mucho el proceso de entintado, a veces cambio ritmos para divertirme.
5.-En este caso se diseño pensando en que me lo iban a colorear digitalmente, si lo hubiera coloreado o pintado yo, el proceso seria muy parecido pero tendria que hacer mi estudio de colores y ver cuales son los que combinaban, en este caso Raul Manriquez aka Raulman me hizo el favor de colorearlo.

3.-In this step I show that at times I really know the design from scratch and at times I have no clue on how to solve it, in this case I wanted to stablished Dr. Wagner Jr in front but I was clueless about the background, for the background I decided to use a reminiscence of his emblematic eagle in the right side of the art and let the color work over the left side.
4.-If you can notice, I was penciling and inking at the same time to save timing, I normally have the tight pencil work and then I ink, all the inking process dependes on the process and at times I use a different approach to change rythms...and have fun!
5.-I knew from the beginning this will be colored digitally by someone else, If I had colored it by myself I would have gotten into the proper palette of colors, in this case Raul Manriquez was the colorist.


6.-Este es el entintado final y todavia checo por última vez si hay alguna cosa que tuviera que añadir o cambiar en esta etapa a veces consulto por si necesitan aprobar algo en terminos del diseño.

6.-This is the final take and the inking, I normally check for a last time If I have to add something else or change it, so I ask for the approval in terms of design when I am working for someboy else.


7.-Por último el color y en este caso se le dio libertad total al colorista y este fue el resultado!

7.-Al last I send the work to the colorist who had freedom to color the piece and this is the result!!


Me dicen mis fuentes que ya esperan que en 15 dias o 3 semanas ya este el Nuevo Super Luchas Grafico que contiene este poster!!!

Un abrazo y espero traducir en Ingles el post en la tarde noche!!

Back from Expo Lucha.















The weirdiest thing I heard over the expo is the cost of a toy of mil mascaras, the regular price is around 50 bucks and I saw some people selling the same toy in 100 buck the weirdiest thing is that If this toy is signed by Mr. Personality aka Mil Mascaras can be sold in over 500 bucks...man that is nonsense!!

Have a great time!
