These are some isometric illustrations that I’ve been working on to put in my portfolio and apply to gaming companies.

May 2010 Sketchcrawl

Santiago — Wed, 19 May 2010 19:40:41 +0000

Even though I arrived late (had a class that Saturday) I really enjoyed this past Sketchcrawl. Check out the sketches I did!

The Embarcadero building, with that weird fountain in the foreground.

One of the California Hornblower ships.

A pedestrian Pier, near the Embarcadero.

A tree in a park in the Financial District. I love the relationship between the plants and the tree…

As I was winding down, I saw this Hippie in a corner at North Beach.

The Legacy Animatic

Here’s a Storyboard that I did based on the short story The Legacy (that you can even find on this site!).

Check it out, and tell the world! : )

Wondercon 2010

Santiago — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 01:04:00 +0000

Well, I had a blast this past weekend at the Wondercon.

Not only did I get to hang out with my friends over at the Leftovers Lounge and Siren tables, but also attended a couple of really cool panels. One unforgettable moment was when John Musker, co-director of The Princess and the Frog stopped by the LL table and bought a copy!

Also I got to talk to my friend Humberto Ramos, who was visiting SF only for the con (and saw him still sketching while the booths around us were being dismantled!). His project FairyQuest looks amazing, and I hope he can find a publishing house for it.

Leftovers Lounge

Santiago — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 01:21:14 +0000

This is the cover of the new comics anthology Leftovers Lounge, where I have a small story called –appropriately– Leftovers Lounge.

Come look for it at the Wondercon convention in San Francisco. You will not regret it!

(and while you’re at it, you can also look out for the Siren comic!)
