Sketching Jap People

2010-07-15T00:46:00.000+09:00

(Forget the witch over there, plz) I love to draw Japanese people. It's so easy to catch their looks!

I'm always looking at them at the train. Sometimes I feel like sketching right there in front of them, but the trains are so crowded that is just impossible.

Maybe I'll paint this couple in the future. I kind of like them!

X-men rought

2010-07-08T13:03:00.000+09:00

From my sketch book. I used to read Marvel a lot when I was a teenager.

Dreamer

2010-07-06T19:18:00.000+09:00

After a while, finally a update. I'm very sorry for leaving the blog without new entries for so long. For now on, I will be making an extra effort to post. Truth is that lately I've been trying to return to hand-draw times. Real paper, no digital stuff. Maybe it's just a excuse, but wait and see.

Una Japonita

2009-05-18T00:45:00.001+09:00

Thank you for everything...

Durga Puja

2008-09-05T22:15:00.003+09:00

The Hindu's invincible Goddess Durga. This one was made completely on Illustrator CS3 for an religious event called "Durga Puja Festival" held in Tokyo this year. It was used on an advertisement for a Hindu magazine in Japan.

Some more inspiration

2008-05-04T19:27:00.005+09:00

Despite of what a lot of people say, Japan has numerous pretty women. Its just hard to find, but they do exist! This girl is doing a campaign for this product.

Kamiya Sensei

2008-03-14T02:32:00.006+09:00

What I can say about Kamiya? Well, she is a gorgeous japanese teacher. Its incredible to watch her explanations. She is the prettiest asian girl I've met so far in my life. Her name means "Valley of the Gods", so I suppose she must be an Goddess! That would explain a lot of things.

I just cant hold it, when I see such a beautiful woman and there is pencil and paper around I have to draw. Its a shame that my skills ain't that good yet to make a appropriate portrait of her beauty. But I do what I can right?

Of course that a picture would help. Painting from memory isn't the best way of make a portrait. Let's see if she let me take some pictures. ;)

"Studies"

2008-03-12T20:35:00.005+09:00

From the "don't tell sensei" series, one more study made in class. Yeah, I know, it isn't Japanese grammar, but it's a cultural study anyway. Right?

Fukada Sensei, I love her face. A lot of oblique lines and interesting shapes. I just pay attention to whatever she says.

YAMASA Speech Book Cover

2008-02-25T15:05:00.003+09:00

Every year Yamasa, the japanese school where I'm in, organizes an speech contest where all the advanced students has to participate with their own texts written in japanese. After the event the school gathers all written speeches into an book and distributes it for free. My teacher asked me to draw something for the cover, but didn´t say exactly what would be good.

I made an illustration representing everything most of the students likes about Japan, at least what I think they do. Starting by an gorgeous japanese girl wearing an samurai armor, representing the beautiful girls, that attracts most of the guys here, and the armor that represents the culture and martial arts. She is holding a banner where is written "japanese" in kanji, which is the language everybody is learning at the school. The symbol in her helmet is the symbol of the organization that holds Yamasa.

After done I realized that I've draw the girl very sexy, a thing that may shock the teachers in the school. So I done some modifications to cover some "fresh" excesses. I don´t know yet which one will be used. In the left side you can check out the first version.

Painting with Light

2008-02-16T12:23:00.003+09:00

Some drawings I made working with white instead of black, rough studies. It makes you think backwards and helps a lot to understand how the shapes behave within lighting.

Join me - IF

2008-02-10T01:40:00.001+09:00

Choice is always a difficult thing to take, specially when your father decide it for you. For IF.

"Join me. Together we can rule the galaxy as father and son."

Tales and Legends - IF

2008-01-29T23:09:00.000+09:00

I always liked the way that children's book tales hide ideals, symbolisms and values behind an apparently silly story. The knight versus a Dragon is one of the greatest. Yourself fighting against an invincible adversary in order to get where you want (sometimes comes with a princess as bonus).

Sketches made in CLASS

2008-01-24T21:18:00.000+09:00

Ok, I know I shouldn't do this, but I can't help it. Any small blank area in my lessons would do, so I can run away to wonderland where I can draw whatever I have in mind. In this case my sensei and a class-mate.

1 year in Japan / IF 100% (Bored)

2008-01-07T22:41:00.000+09:00

Do I celebrate it or just kill myself? Hard to know when you are 100% bored!

Ruby Girl

2007-12-30T00:22:00.000+09:00

"Ow little girl are your Daddy home? Did he let you all alone? I have a deep desire... oh, oh, oh, I'm on fire!"

Triumph

2007-12-26T20:50:00.000+09:00

Done after watching the second and last season of ROME. Julius Gaius Caesar.

Red Sun

2007-12-07T19:08:00.000+09:00

Some sketches made with Japan in mind. The landscape I draw from reference of a photo I've took in the real place near my house. Just some warm ups to keep the muscles of the hand alive.

You shall not PASS!

2007-10-16T19:24:00.000+09:00

I just figure out that I dont have any post work with the LotR theme, which I absolutly LOVE. This is one of my favorite scenes, both in films and books. Gandalf rox!

Dancing Jap Girl

2007-08-30T13:56:00.000+09:00

Last weekend I went to a Disco (dance club) in Nagoya. That's my impression of the thing...

Hand-drew, then scanned and photoshop painted. Its just a sketch with a lot of effects, the lines are quite loose. Hope you liked it!

Indie Gri (Ingrid)

2007-08-27T22:57:00.000+09:00

Ingrid is one of that very rare type of friend that you must be glad if you find one of that kind in your entire life. As me, she is trying to understant the world by walking alone across it, living new experiences and discovering alot more of herself. She is fully emotive, passioned, girly-latin-lover person and there`s not a better place to someone like that to be as Paris.

Yesterday I read her blog, all the posts, a kind of diary of her adventures. Just like mine! And I think I discovered a new friend within an old one. Funny how things change when you know secrets about people. But Ingrid isn`t ashamed of telling her fellings, her fears, her desires... and she do it so well that inspired me to make a little draw of her. Hope you liked Gui! Love!

Sketching at Work!

2007-08-09T14:54:00.000+09:00

Don't tell my boss, but I just can't hold the will of sketching in any piece of paper. Bills, Letters, anything with a blank part would do. As the computer saves a work or load the e-mails, my eyes turn to the block at the side of my keyboard, and I draw without compromise, no rush, just for fun.

When somebody crosses the run and says: "hey, that look like Terminator" So, I make some elements to transform my drawing onto that.

Usually I draw something that I found interesting that day. If I see a pretty girl at the street, it's a good theme for another drawing. And so on...

Musashi - the path of the warrior

2007-08-06T01:38:00.000+09:00

Altought not recognized as a true bushi by some japanese experts, Musashi is a icon of the samurai culture. He started from nothing, as a hungry little boy in a small village called Miyamoto, and became one of the greatest warriors in Japan. Famous by using both swords during a embate, Musashi has won over 60 deadly duels during his live. I see his personal path as a analogyof my own live, walking through wildness, facing every kind of difficulties, meeting important friends and always chasing the dream of become "strong". It`s easy to imagine the decisions of take as duels, the ways of life as unknow paths throghout montains and forests...

This is a simple study over the character, I was trying to get the thing again in Painter. Has being over 4 months since I last used it. The drawing is a little loose for my style, but I`m posting anyway. Later I intent to do a better homenage to one of my favorite historical figure: Miyamoto Musashi.

Comics Ruffs

2007-08-02T13:10:00.000+09:00

Just some painted (without my tablet) comic rough I made for fun to a friend's script. Sorry, I wrote the text in portuguese.

The Tale of the Monk and the Scorpion

2007-07-25T15:17:00.000+09:00

That's a not-approved illo I made for the gospel magazine I'm actually working on. Discarded because of the monk's drawing... well, the original tale tells about a monk that saves an scorpion from drowning in a river. As the monk take the scorpion out of the water, he receive lots of bites from the poison insect. When his pupils ask him why he saved that tricky little devil he says "The scorpion was acting accordantly with its own nature. So did I.".

Hope you like!

IF - Discoverying a new Heart

2007-07-14T16:55:00.000+09:00

One more drawing from the series "bored-in-work-without-a-tablet". Hope you enjoy!

Standing

2007-07-12T13:56:00.000+09:00

... trying not to sleep at work... zzzzz

Days here are so hot and quiet... sometimes all I want is take a nap after lunch. Hum, maybe in Spain (in the future).

Can you draw using only straight lines? I bet you can!

Anger Hunger

2007-07-01T14:15:00.000+09:00

"Ugly face to me is hunger" is what Mama used to say when I made ugly faces to her (or something like that). Inspired by the 300 movie faces... so cool!

In Japan "300" has just being release, last place in the world premiere I believe. Now, I didn't like that thing with the spartan queen... wtf was that? C'mon, there wasn't any better histories to tell to make the film longer?

I'M BLUE

2007-06-23T12:30:00.000+09:00

New Portrait

2007-06-16T17:15:00.000+09:00

I hate to post pictures on my profile, but I can't find a cool pic either... so I decided to play a little with PS and mix photo+drawing. I always thought this drawing puppets looks kinda funny. The original file I took from here. That's my new avatar (by now).

Indian (in a bad mood)

2007-06-11T17:43:00.000+09:00

My illustration teacher used to say that I like to "lick" the painting 'till it gets no brush strokes, just smooth gradients. That's true, its hard for me to know when to stop painting. So, I did this drawing and decided to stop in the middle of the process. Hope you like it!

note: I'm trying to get the thing with PS, since I not using Painter by now.

Spidey 3

2007-06-09T16:19:00.000+09:00

Yeah, I've watched the new feature film from our friend Spidey, twice, and I like it! So, I couldn't hold my pencils on lunch time and that's the result: Venon vs Parker sketch. In my humble opinion, this movie is even better than the other two. Great special FX, dramatization, gorgeous girls everywhere... and kick-ass villains.

There are some memories that we dont want to remember anymore

the Old DarkElf

2007-04-21T17:26:00.001+09:00

I'm reading an fantasy book at the moment and I have this strange will of drawing things I imagine from the tale.

the BANDIT from the West

2007-04-09T22:42:00.000+09:00

A very quick illo I made on my free-time in the office to post on my fellow´s blog "limpa o limpatipo" that started very well, really nice jobs. I just can´t wait to see new threads!

A pretty pink spring day

2007-03-28T00:12:00.000+09:00

Ah! Spring has just began in Japan. The cold days are getting far apart, so good! The flowers are growing again and there´s a nice smell in the air. Life is pink, and it´s good to be alive in spring time!

Enjoy!

IF - Gravity (w.i.p.)

2007-02-23T23:06:00.000+09:00

I don´t like to post wips, but I have no choice ´cause the time is up for illo friday of this week. I promess to post the finished one when I finish.

I guess that shows alot of the role idea of "gravity". Enjoy!

The Duelist

2007-02-18T00:33:00.000+09:00

Maybe some of you may remember I said that I was going to move on to another place. So, here I am. Japan!

Just like our friends samurais, I´m trying to increase my skills here. It´s have beeing difficult to adapt to the new rythm, food, and everything. But all had been worthwhile until now and I believe I did the right thing by coming to the manga-anime-game country.

I´m trying to learn japanese so I can do an curse in arts area. Wish me luck and keep visiting me sometimes. Thank you all!

Keep posting!

Heroc

2007-01-03T06:54:00.000+09:00

There´s not much to say about Heroc. He´s a guy that just like to be in trouble... maybe ´cause he actually IS trouble.

This was lost in my drawings folder... I just finished some details to post and that´s it: FIRST POST OF THE YEAR!

PinK

2006-12-29T03:21:00.000+09:00

I love girls with style. It´s hard to define women´s facial muscles without give them a hard "macho" look. Specially when painting. This drawing I made to show some friends drawing techniques on PS, but I finished it on Painter as usual.

Thank you everybody for the happy hollidays votes! I´ll try to reach you all by Blogger!

the Old folk

2006-12-12T11:40:00.000+09:00

Jungle Soldier

2006-11-04T23:52:00.000+09:00

After a long time working alot (more than usual), I´ve found some time to do some of my scketchs.

This was made using Flash pos-produced in PS. Hope you enjoy!

Marcelo de Moura & Asterix

2006-10-13T05:06:00.000+09:00

This mounth "Asterix and the Vikings" had its premiere here in Brazil. I had the opportunity of working together with the brazilian team responsable to animate and to do the clean-ups of approximately 15 min of movie footage.

That´s a caricature of Marcelo, the producer-coordinator, with the film characters I made to a local magazine called "Recreio".

Bright Eyes - Medusa

2006-09-30T05:49:00.000+09:00

I´ve heard that some guys got petrifyied just by looking at her. Wow, what a woman!

TroLL

2006-09-26T01:28:00.000+09:00

I´ve been working alot these days, but I´m always finding some time to draw my things. This Troll I made to a friend, Bruno, who is adicted to Warcraft. I love this Blizzard style of doing creatures. Hope you enjoy!

No Match for Kojiro - IF

2006-08-23T04:24:00.000+09:00

Sasaki Kojiro was a great bushi, or samurai, of the Edo period. His skills was unbelieveble when in duels. Maybe the "aido" technique, draw the sword, the one I like most. The oponent didn´t even see the strike coming. Sasaki used to practice in swallows when full flying.

Secret Agent Men

2006-08-15T03:03:00.000+09:00

"Live and let DIE". Some not-really-serious characters made on flash.

Mulan of my Dreams

2006-08-09T02:51:00.000+09:00

After the male-female incident in Atila´s war, Mulan didn´t get to manage herself in any job on her village. So, she decided to get into the porn showbiz! Good for us!
I was so tired of drawing all those stinky-muscled men... people was starting to doubt my masculinity. Hehehehehe!
This style was inspired by the very fine works of the artists CHEEKS and AYANIMEYA. Thanks!

Neanderthal Tiffany´s Showman

2006-08-08T05:08:00.000+09:00

I strongly advise not to make any jokes on his jewery or makeup thing. He´s not very receptive to critics... the last guy become soup. Better not talk with him at all.

Illegal Boxer

2006-07-20T04:57:00.000+09:00

Heart Breaker - the illegal boxer. He´s that kind of person that nobody likes to see mad. Inspired by the Brad Pitt´s character from "Snatch".

Sacredfice

2006-07-18T05:56:00.000+09:00

I just couldn´t think any greater sacrifice than His.

Gueixa

2006-07-17T15:01:00.000+09:00

Following the "inspired by movies" tendence I´m on at this moment, another illo based on a cinema character. Actually she doesn´t look at her at all, but I was thinking in Tomoe from the japanese movie "Twilight Samurai". Gueixa, the perfect women to have on our side. They doesn´t make any of those anymore. :(

Favorite Scene

2006-07-16T07:29:00.000+09:00

I´m using Flash alot this week. Ok, that´s my favorite scene from the movie. I didn´t get any references to draw this (maybe I should). The idea is to quick draw the hole thing at once.

Wolverine Sliced

2006-07-16T07:25:00.000+09:00

It´s really cool to work with monocromatics in Flash ´cause we can easily switch the tonal control and adjust depth on shapes. This Wolvie I made like that.

Superman II

2006-07-16T03:33:00.000+09:00

Hello! I´ve watched the new feature movie "Superman Returns" and had suddenly this feeling of make some super´s illustrations. Despite of that "new look" on the uniform, I liked Brandon Routh as Clark Kent/Supes. My only critic is that they made things too similar with the first 77´s movie, but still being an good movie. This is my version of Superman for comics/animation. Maybe I post another illo with the movie mood. Cya!

Mulata Requebrando! (illo fri)

2006-06-22T02:14:00.000+09:00

Past week I saw a samba show here in São Paulo. When I saw that "dance" would be this week´s theme for illo friday I didn´t think twice. That´s it! A mulata shaking her body in a carnival day. Such a pretty view, believe me.

I would like also to thanks everybody for the nice comments on my blog. Unfortunally I´m not abble to aswer wich one of you properly, for matters of time. Don´t you think I don´t care. I really love to visit everybody blogs and check the progress. THANK YOU ALL!

Square SW

2006-06-11T11:37:00.000+09:00

Just a silly illo about jedis and sith lords. I´m remembering how to draw in Flash. Sometimes I miss the simplicity of vector works.

Apenas um desenho bobo sobre Jedis e Lordes Sith. Estou relembrando o Flash. As vezes eu sinto falta da simplicidade de se trabalhar com vetor.

Superman Returns (to my blog)

2006-06-08T02:36:00.001+09:00

Okay, I admit: I´m a big Supes fan! Can´t wait so see the special fx in the new movie. It Seens that will be a great one this time, I mean, just look at Lex.

Certo, eu confesso: sou um grande fã do Super. Não posso esperar para ver os efeitos especiais no novo filme. Parece que será um filmasso, só pelo Lex.

Some quick sketches I did in Painter to increase velocity while drawing. I took 5~15 minutes each figure.

Alguns rascunhos rápido que fiz no Painter para aumentar minha velocidade de desenho. Eu levei de 5 a 15 minutos em cada figura.

Illustration Friday - Spring

2006-04-06T03:48:00.000+09:00

A weird outworld spring. I didn´t want to create a traditional "spring" figure, so I had this sci-fi idea wich is closer to the work I´m developing now.

Uma estranha primavera de outro mundo. Eu não queria criar uma figura de uma "primavera" tradicional, então tive essa idéia de ficção científica que é mais próxima do trabalho que estou desenvolvendo agora.

Head Cop

2006-04-01T12:35:00.000+09:00

Okay, okay! I know. I promisse to start posting the comic soon. By now just another (yeah, one more) scketch from my little "graphic novel" (I wish). That´s the guy who leads that two commando droids I´ve posted.

Tá bom, tá bom. Eu sei. Prometo que começarei a postar o gibi logo. Por ora apenas outro (é, mais um) rascunho da minha pequena "graphic novel" (quem me dera). Esse é o cara que lidera aqueles dois tiras andróides que postei.

Punk Chain Master

2006-03-23T06:56:00.000+09:00

Ouch! This must hurt. I really enjoyed to design this character.

Ai! Isso deve doer. Eu gostei muito de fazer o design desse personagem.

Fight Scene

2006-03-23T00:53:00.000+09:00

Another illustration from "Plugged". I´m trying to figure out the look of the hero, vilains and scenarios. Costume design is also a thing I want to focus. Just a few more style studies and I begin to draw the comic.

Outra ilustração de "Plu66ed". Estou tentando descobrir como será o visual do herói, vilões e cenários. Figurino é uma outra coisa em que quero me focar. Apenas mais alguns estudos de estilo e eu começo a desenhar a HQ.

Zer0´s Girl

2006-03-22T06:06:00.000+09:00

First concept for Zer0´s girl. She´s one of the main characters of the story and the romantic pair of the male main character Zer0. Above all, she´ll be responsable for the quest they´ll run throught. Names for her are welcome!

Primeiro conceito para a garota do Zer0. Ela é uma das personagens centrais da história e o par romântico do personagem principal Zer0. Sobretudo, ela será responsável pela jornada que eles irão percorrer. Nomes para ela são bem-vindos!

Cops from Plu66ed

2006-03-18T11:15:00.000+09:00

Another inspirational for my comic book "Plu66ed". That´s the special force of the police, droids. I´m anxious to starting drawing, but I´ve been so busy...

Outro desenho inspiracional da minha história em quadrinhos "Plu66ed". Essa é a força tarefa da polícia, andróides (a ROTA do futuro). Estou ansioso para começar a desenhar, mas ando tão ocupado...

Evil Me (duh)

2006-03-10T12:32:00.000+09:00

A dark version of myself as an evil samurai. I made it just for fun, to put on my msn icon display. Weird, huh?

Uma versão sombria de mim mesmo como um samurai do mal. Fiz só por brincadeira, para colocar no meu display do msn. Esquisito né?

Zer0

2006-03-02T12:58:00.000+09:00

That's my first study for one of the main caracters. Yes, he´s an android. I gave him a little latin spice look: dark skin, brow hair and eyes. Lady´s oppinions would be welcome.

Esse é meu primeiro estudo para os personagens principais. Sim, ele é um andróide. Eu dei um visual com tempero latino: pele escura, cabelos e olhos morenos. A opnião das mulheres é bem vinda.

Another inspirational artwork from my upcoming crazy comic book. The provisory name for my futuristic cyberpunk history is Plu66ed.

Outro desenho de inspiração da minha história em quadrinhos. O nome provisório é Plu66ed.

Psyco Cyber Masked Punk (!)

2006-02-04T10:48:00.000+09:00

A concept from a twisted idea I had. I´m on the development of an personal (web) comic book and that is the very first image I´ve created for it. If things go right, news soon.

Um conceito de uma idéia maluca que tive. Estou desenvolvendo uma história em quadrinhos (para web) e essa é a primeira imagem que criei para ela. Se tudo der certo, novidades em breve.

Alice in Wonderland

2006-01-28T10:22:00.000+09:00

Finally I´ve finished this painting. The most detailed one I made in Painter so far. This picture showed to me how import is to plan the illustration before start painting (what I didn´t) to avoid waste of time, specially issues with color and composition. Again I´ve tried to achieve the same feeling of my hand-drawings and my vector-based illustrations: straight lines. Hope you like it!

Finalmente eu terminei essa pintura. A mais detalhada que fiz no Painter até agora. Essa figura me mostrou como é importante planejar a ilustração antes de sair pintando (o que eu não fiz) para evitar perda de tempo, especialmente com problemas de cor e composição. Novamente, eu tentei atingir o mesmo sentimento dos meus desenhos feitos à mão e no vetor: as linhas retas. Espero que gostem!

MEANWHILE... on the net

Hi! I´m just finishing a pretty new piece to post here in the blog so that you all can see and give me some thoughts. But I believe that still gonna need a couple days more to be done. Meanwhile, I received a very nice tip from my friend Farrell: a site named Art.com where you can draw in a flash based canvas and save all the process of the painting. I just made 2 tests with it, take a look.

Ah! You can slide a time bar to see it faster ´till the end.

Olá! Estou quase acabando uma nova pintura para postar aqui no blog para que vocês possam ver e me dizer o que acharam. Apesar de achar que ainda vai levar mais alguns dias para terminar. Enquanto isso, eu recebi uma dica muito bacana de meu amigo Farrell: um site chamado Art.com onde você pode desenhar numa tela estilo flash e salvar todo o processo da pintura. Eu fiz apenas 2 testes com ela, dê uma olhada.
Ah! Você pode rolar a barra de tempo para ir mais rápido ao final.

Old Rought - and Apologies

2006-01-17T11:07:00.000+09:00

Hi all! Thank you very much for the very nice feedback!
First of all: I´m so sorry for not beeing updating the blog as often as I promissed. My work is just keeping me very busy... when I get home, I´m too tired to draw. But I won´t give up. Right now I´m doing a lot of new stuffs that I can´t show you yet (freelance material, not yet used by the client). So, not to disappoint everybody, I´m posting a very old draw from an animated project I made for an Internet Provider here in Brazil. It´s from 3 years ago.

Olá Pessoal! Muitíssimo obrigado pelos comentários bacanas!
Primeiramente: Desculpem-me por não estar atualizando o blog periodicamente como havia prometido. Meu trabalho tem me deixado muito ocupado... quando chego em casa, estou muito cansado para desenhar. Mas eu não desistirei! Agora mesmo estou fazendo um monte de coisas novas que não posso mostrar ainda (por ser ainda material não divulgado de clientes). Então, para não desapontar todo mundo, estou postando um desenho muito antigo de um projeto que fiz para uma provedora de internet aqui no Brasil. É de três anos atrás.

Arabian Nights (or Days)

2005-12-25T10:20:00.000+09:00

I made this after watching an exibition of this fantastic arabian dance. The dancers are quite inspiring...
The drawing is another piece of my sketch book, made 2 years ago, that I painted recently and corrected somethings that were bothering me. It was the most difficult artwork I made in Painter so far... hope you like it!

Eu fiz esse desenho após assistir uma fantástica exibição dessa dança árabe. As dançarinas são um tanto quanto inspiradoras...
O desenho é outro do meu caderno de rascunhos, feito a 2 anos atrás, que pintei recentemente e corrigi algumas coisas que estavam me incomodando. Foi o desenho mais díficil que fiz no Painter até agora... espero que gostem!

A Centaur from Narnia

2005-12-16T23:46:00.000+09:00

I've watched "The Chronicles of Narnia" last weekend and got inspired by the mythological creatures of the film. This one is based on the warriors centaurs of the movie.
I'm trying to achieve the same feeling of my vector work, the straight lines, into my painted work. It has been really a challenge.

Assisti "As Crônicas de Nárnia" no final de semana passado e fiquei inspirado pelas criaturas mitológicas do filme. Esse é baseado nos guerreiros centauros.
Estou tentando alcançar o mesmo aspecto do meu trabalho vetorial, as linas retas, no meu trabalho pintado. Está sendo um desafio e tanto.

Spy Girl

2005-12-15T02:48:00.000+09:00

Okay, there´s nothing in her that reminds a spy. Except by the gun maybe. But... who cares?
Try to find any perfect circle in the drawing.

Certo, não tem nada nela que lembre um espião. Exceto a arma talvez. Mas... e daí?
Tente encontrar um círculo perfeito no desenho.

The Pink Lady

2005-12-11T13:58:00.000+09:00

That´s a scan (!) from my finalized art book. I've just realized that the original art file of this drawing may be lost forever. Maybe I just redo everything back as a vector again...

Esse é um scan (!) do meu livro de artes finalizado. Eu acabei de descobrir que o arquivo orignal desse desenho pode estar perdido pra sempre. Talvez eu apenas o refaça como vetor novamente...

Head Studies

Some more samples from my sketch book. These shapes I made were thought as an grooved 3D figure.
I´ll try to avoid posting old skecthes. However, I still want to put two more of then. The reason is simple: I´m trying to give me some incentive to create new pieces of artwork to post in this blog. That way I can show what I´m doing currently.

Mais algumas amostras do meu caderno de rascunhos. Essas formas foram pensadas como uma figura 3d entalhada.
Vou tentar evitar postar rascunhos velhos. Porém, eu ainda quero colocar mais 2 deles. A razão é simples: Estou tentando me inventivar a criar novas peças para postar nesse blog. Assim posso mostrar o que estou fazendo atualmente.

Cubic Head

2005-12-09T22:33:00.000+09:00

Another piece of my vector works. Actually, I work faster with this kind of drawing. It´s perfect to do animation in Flash or Toonboom.

Outra amostra do meu trabalho com vetores. Na verdade, eu trabalho mais rápido com esse tipo de desenho. É perfeito para animação no Flash ou Toonboom.

Mystic Star Warrior

2005-12-09T22:31:00.000+09:00

I made this illustration using Flash. After years drawing with that software, it became a powerfull tool to do quick vector works.

Eu fiz essa ilustração usando Flash. Depois de anos desenhando nesse software, ele se tornou uma poderosa ferramenta para criar trabalhos vetoriais rapidamente.

Sketch Book 3

2005-12-09T10:25:00.000+09:00

Funny how my sketch book often does much more success that my final art book. I have to achieve some balance in this two books.

É engraçado como meu caderno de rascunhos geralmente faz muito mais sucesso do que meu caderno com trabalhos finalizados. Eu preciso encontrar um equilíbrio entre os dois.

Sketch Book 2

2005-12-09T10:19:00.000+09:00

I like very much the zombie. Another page from the Sketch Book.

Sketch Book 1

Some samples of my sketch book. Some old things I like.

"Scrap"

2005-12-09T10:10:00.000+09:00

Inspirated in the "Million Dollar Babe" character played by Morgan Freeman.

Inspirado no personagem de Morgan Freeman no filme "Menina de Ouro".
