Inktober 2014

 

A selection of ink sketches from last year's Inktober.

Festival MAB

Last weekend, I was at a small comics festival that took place in my hometown, and I drew stuff for whoever wanted it. I always love drawing for people, and hanging out with my art buddies, which is something I can’t do very often, so it was a good day. Here are a couple of photos and sketches I drew while I was there.

Our small gang of artists - Fil, Manuel Alves, Ana Oliveira, Pedro Carvalho and me.

Me and Pedro, drawing away! God, I need a haircut.

I don't know what's wrong with my face, but I'm drawing a zombie.

Here a page with two zombies: one drawn by Pedro (bottom) one by me (top), for our friend Rui Alex.

This zombie was drawn for the very nice Paulo Brito.

Here's me and Pedro doing our part on setting up our gerrilla Zona art exhibit!

Basically, I drew a lot of zombies.

Fourth ZvC personalized edition

And so we arrive to the fourth, and last, personalization of a Zombies vs. Cheerleaders issue (basically because I don't have any more issues left to sell). For those of you that don't know, I worked on the cover colors (with lines drawn by Mark Slater) for an issue of the comic Zombies vs. Cheerleaders. This one went to Rui Rolo, I had the pleasure of drawing four Naruto characters for him. It was a bit of challenge because it has been a long time since I last saw a Naruto episode (I used to be a big fan in the beginning, but when the show started dragging I pretty much quit watching), but all in all it was a lot of fun. Here are some photos for you to check out the drawings. I hope you enjoy them.

Third ZvC personalized edition

That's right, one more issue of Zombies vs. Cheerleaders #2 found its home! This time, I had the pleasure of drawing for my good friend and fellow artist Fil, mastermind behind the Zona project. He requested Vash the Stampede, Alita Battle Angel, the Bride, and Ash. Here they are!

I also have to tell you guys that I'm all out of these issues. I'm sorry! More opportunities will come soon, in case you want to send some commission requests my way.

Second ZvC personalized edition

Here are a couple mores of skecthes I did for someone who bought an issue of the Zombies vs. Cheerleaders issue with my colors on the cover. This time, the commission came from my friend Diogo Campos.

If you want the same deal let me know, but be quick because I only have ONE left! Get on it!

ZvC personalized edition

Since there's not much in the way of new work that I can show you (it'll be coming soon, hopefully) I'll leave you with some examples of skecthes I did for someone who bought an issue of the Zombies vs. Cheerleaders issue with my colors on the cover. If you want the same deal let me know, but be quick because I don't have many left!

Let me know what you think!

Kubrick's Garage - 18

I'm already working on page number 19 of the ongoing Kubrick's Garage webcomic, and I just realized I forgot to post page number 18. It's no big deal, since the stories are mostly unrelated, but I want to show it anyway. Once again, I apologize for the lack of translation - it gets tricky to translate somethings properly. But I think it's pretty self-explanatory.

Click on the page for the full-size! And don't forget, the webcomic has a facebook page that is regularly updated with sketches, drawings and, of course, the finished pages. Go here to check it out!

I'll leave you with a little bonus. I didn't get to photograph any of the sketches I did for people at both "Zona Fantástica"'s release parties, but I did get to photograph some sketches I did on a couple of volumes for my friends. Jules Winnfield is up first, and then on another book I drew a cartoony Shaun, from Shaun of the Dead, and Watchmen's Ozymandias. Enjoy!
