Pitch package

I had a pitch package due today and I spent quite a while (more than I wished to) painting the cover. I had my friend Juan Nieto help me (basically, write down all the story for me) using my characters. And that's how all-porpuse-Glenn (like the flour) becomes an ex FBI agent...

Oh, if it were any doubt about my super originality, the title is "One Blood" in German, according to Babelfish translation.

I haven't been feeling good emotionally speaking. I've been accumulating frustration for a while and adding up that I'm a home person, since my mom left I've been wanting to cry out my sadness (which I did just today). I exploded and called her, dad attended and worried about me. I don't want to freak out and now less than ever since I'm with my sister and I need to be an example to her. But sometimes I can't avoid loosing it.

Yesterday I had a chat via MSN with Ingvild. Out of the blue we talked about our boys and how much we drew them before... And she asked me to doodle on MSN like old times. So I did it. And it was like medicine... I missed drawing what I like, it's something I cannot explain. One thing we noticed is that how a free tool such as MSN can bring us even more fun than a program worth hundreds of dollars (such as photoshop). So, this is some of the stuff that popped out of that session. I wish we could repeat that again anytime soon.




I've been also thinking that my style pretty much sunk. If I try to make it different it'll look like someone else's style =/ I kind of like it but sometimes I wished it was different, like the growing popular korean style.

And just because, an old sketch I did of one of my most recently created charas. You can tell I have a thing for guys wearing sideburns. Riso's a musician werewolf born in Austria, and Glenn's buddy (they're just friends, don't freak out).

Coltrane is finally complete!

So I received a call this morning from Canada Post and I screamed. I thought he was arriving this Friday, so that means it took just three days to get here! How efficient is that? Anyway, I bought a Regen from Luts, because I desperately needed a SSDF body and he was on sale for three days, so I said "why not?". So I bought him on December, and the other good thing is that there was this event so I could get a free head, the "Winter Event Head". Which is way too cute. Anyway, the photos!



The box inside the box!



What's inside those cushions? My sister was there and she didn't let me take nice pictures of the contents because apparently she was more excited than I was and took everything.



The mummy!



And this is Regen. He's cute but not so much my type, the lack of forehead bothers me, and his head is too small for his body. I think I'll practice face-up on him a couple of times and then sell him on the market.



Regen's head is the one at the left, and Wintery is at the right. Look how big is the deattachable SSDF hand!



So I changed heads and put on Coltrane's with his new wig (that I need to style as well). I almost cried out my happiness. Coltrane is finally complete.



And if you wanted to know the size difference between a SSDF and a SDF... I felt sorry for Loren, he looks like a child now... And they're the same age! This made me think it twice about getting a mecha angel (80 cm).



This is a cute one. Loren's uncomfortable because not only Coltrane is one head taller than him, he can also cross legs xD



And more Coltrane's photos, just because. I can´t get over his beauty. Wait until I paint a decent face-up and attach nice doll-sized eyelashes.





My friend Liliana wanted to see the veiny hands... As a side note, that watch actually works!



I love my dolls to bits... I wished my mom was here so she could sew something less formal for Coltrane. Oh well, I'll figure... Now I want a female doll, but my only female chara is Juno and she's a tough one, I can't find her anywhere. Anyway, I'm way too happy with these two, tho they can't stand each other xD * sings and finishes this entry *

So it was about time to post something. Something like...

Naked people





Captain Hook



Niña looking cute (like always)







And Loren wearing clothing my mom made *__* Isn't she awesome?







And a closeup of his wonderful face-up. I wonder how they did it, bet they used a single hair brush for those eyelashes!

Loren's here!

Yay! After three months and a half, Loren is here! He's a DOT Lahoo (from DOD) with brown makeup. I was at college when my sister came to my classroom telling me to give a lasagna to my classmates and that my boy came! So when I came home my mom had the box lying on my bed. So I took my camera and started documenting it *_*

That is the box that came all the way from Korea!



That's a box inside another box. "Dream of Dall"



The contents! Two wigs, eyes, extra pair or hands, postal cards and a wrapped thing.



It's a heavy candy!



Here's Loren, eyeless and with no dignity.



Niña wanted to try the box



And here's Loren finally unwrapped and with some eyes I had for him, wearing the default wig.



Loren stood up for first time ^^ (so hard to do on the carpet)



From now on, I just toyed around with his joints, and made him wear several different things.




And this is his final look (for now). Not with those glasses tho, I need to find nice emo glasses for him.




OMAKE!

The Small One

OK, this is the first time I cry with an animated movie, and the worst thing being, it's not the first time I watch it. I'm talking about "The Small One", a short film made by Disney and released in 1978 with Don Bluth working on it (Dragon's Lair, Thumbelina, The Land Before Time, All Dogs go to Heaven, etc). I think it was because it brings back so many memories. I had it on VHS along other Christmas Disney shorts. But this one was my favourite among all of them. And I can see why. Man I cried like a baby watching it again, the English version is as lovely as the Spanish dubbed version. To understand why it is so good, just watch it:


Part One

It will remind you of the true meaning of Christmas.

Life Drawing

Some life drawing stuff. Yah, that one is Mulan! Can't believe semester (and preproduction) is over!
