Been there, drawn that

Here comes my traditional NDS Colors sketch card to wish you all the best for these Xmas!

I can't believe that a service as expensive as plane trips may turn out to be so problematic and user-unfriendly. Most staff as airports either lie to you straight faced or simply don't tell you anything at all and you never get any compensation for cancelled flights, lond delays, lost connections, etc, they always go to the little trick of dangerous weather conditions (even when the rest of the planes are taking off without any apparent trouble) or mechanical problems. Just because, that way, they won't need to offer a compensation. Cloaked strikes are not helping, either. These holidays I need to make a connection at Barajas and, believe it or not, I'll pay more to get there by train, that's how reliable spanish lines seem to me at the moment.

I could easily get used to this ... :)

A great place for scuba diving! (do these things bite? :P)

The people (and spiders) of Kirkwall ...

Behold the queen of pirates! (and check your purse afterwards)

All work and no play ...

... is nowhere to be seen. Basically, because they rebuild it on a need basis. I did not know that the first time I went to Tokyo, so I spent some time looking ...

Beaches in Maui are totally amazing, no big surprise there, but the forests in the north east part of the island are also pretty amazing

A classic view, along with Chiado and Los Geronimos, whenever you go to Lisbon.

Do you know they actually filmed A Journey to the Center of the Earth -the old one, mind you- in the wonderful caves of this village?

When I was younger and dumber, I liked to hike all the way to Sierra Nevada, in Granada. I used to sketch at the beginning, when I had still enough strength to hold a pen...

Time to meet Anders!

Some very quick old draft from my flash visit to San Francisco

And France has some really nice churches if you are into gargoyles :D

My first visit to Frankfurt, back when I sketched all the windows in the buildings and all :D

Have I ever commented how much I like Greece? BTW, I'm enjoying throughly Joaquin Dorao's book of watercolors in Greece!

From my second notebook. This is Portugal dos pequeninhos, a park in Coimbra where they've got Portugal main buildings built at small scale. Cool place, if you ask me!

I need to finish this one some time soon!

A very old Sintra sketch from my second travel sketchbook and a newer one from last Xmas You can find still more recent colored sketches in the blog, also :)
