The Dark Knight Rises Poster for Dendy Cinemas Newtown

Yesterday I went to see The Dark Knight Rises at Dendy's Newtown, Sydney. I won a competition and they were exhibiting the winner posters including mine. It's a great feeling to go to a Cinema that has your poster hanging!

Refresh

The topic for this week Illustration Friday was "Refresh". I tried to imagine the things that comes to my mind. Swimming pool. A beer. At the same time, here in Australia is winter, so the meaning of the word is not the same that for someone suffering a hot hot hot summer. With those basic elements, I formed that comic that starts in Lavender Bay and ends in MacMahons Point. 

Collaboration for ISM Zine - Sydney

It's being long from my last update. The blog is now 4 years old by the way. This comic is a collaboration for the UNSW student's Zine "ISM" on their issue about anachronisms. It's a little comic in black and white done with unipen markers in a comfortable style of line claire.

Manly Beach

Manly Beach, a photo by david.jack on Flickr.

A work of ink and Brush Pen (similar to Pentel). This summer (in Australia the summer goes from the 1st of December to the last day of February) has been raining and raining, we really didn't had many chances to go to the beach during the weekends. This is the beautiful Manly beach. You can see the ferry coming in the center of the image.

Trabajo de tinta y pincel (parecido a un Pentel). Este verano (en Australia el verano va desde el 1 de diciembre al último día de febrero) no ha parado de llover., así que no hemos tenido muchas oportunidades de ir a la playa. Esta es la preciosa playa de Manly. En el centro de la imagen se puede ver el ferry acercándose.

This scene resume perfectly my trip to Japan. I went there for the Manga. For the technology. For the occasional temple. I went there for Pikachu, Mario and Ranma. For Evangelion and in the search of the street where Nobita Nobi used to receive (or borrow) the tricks from Doraemon. But at the end, It was just me, my wife, and a brush. Japan is a place to loose yourself, completely.

Nara, Japan
