You're too stupid to be craven
Pyp, from HBO A Game of Thrones. One thing they decided to change from the books, too :(

Another one at Alhama. This one in sepia and white because it was lunch time :D From De Vuelta con el Cuaderno 2014

Udaipur from a window
I've realized that I had not yet posted this final sketch (on the back cover) of my travel sketchbook to India. I was out of pages, but I had this amazing view of the city from the hotel window, so I filled it as best as I could in the early morning. BTW, I enjoyed Udaipur, which is kind of off the main tourist circuit (Golden Triangle), far more than more popular places like Taj Mahal, Delhi or Jaipur. It was easier to wander on the streets and do your thing. I even found the time to spend a couple of hours with a local artist to see how they paint on silk. The elephant of the second pic is all mine (it's obvious, because it's all asymmetrical, too). The watercolor was done in a Stillman & Birn Gamma sketchbook.
A place of gods and heroes ...
Three old doodles at Knossos (Crete), with a ballpen and a 2 EUR notebook :)
Maleficent
I realized this week that it had been years since I did any watercolor (I color everything with watercolors, but, of course, it's not the same) and, since I had some spare time this sunday, I decided it was time to practice. I decided to draw Maleficent (one of the best movies to go watch with your god-daughter, mind you :D) because I wanted to dabble with all the green washes, so first things first, I sketched Angelina Jolie (as best as I could in 10 minutes tops) using a S sepia Pitt marker. I added some shadows with a B Pitt warm grey before I applied any color at all. I even decided to go all crazy and use some mask fluid that had been in a box for at least 7 years. Gee, it still works! This is what I got after I applied the first wash of blue/dark grey color, leaning the sketchbook top-bottom so that pigment would go down. This is the second go at colors, in this case leaning the sketchbook bottom top so the green and yellow would go upwards. I also used the we...
Zaragoza train station
The coolest part is obviously not sketched by me, but by Urumo. And now it's all mine! Bwahahahaha!!!
Zaragoza skyline
An old sketch from El Pilar, at Zaragoza. With any luck (and scanning time), I'll be uploading my latest one soon enough
De Vuelta con el Cuaderno 2014
The classic quick portrait of people during their presentations at De Vuelta con el Cuaderno 2014
Who are you gonna call?
Seen yesterday at Malaga Animacomics. And it's got a real license plate too, so I'm guessing it can drive around :D A couple of years ago I saw a cosplayer as the Doctor and he was carrying around a TARDIS. Some fan boys are just THAT cool
Cabaret Iberico El Plata
The traditional visit to el Cabaret Iberico El Plata in Zaragoza during De Vuelta con el Cuaderno 2014. It was my first time there and I had to draw in the few intervals of low illumination, it was dark most of the time. Anyway, I did some loose quick sketches of the performers. All in all, it was really funny! Thanks Clara Marta!
