New York, New Yooooork



These are a couple of sketches I did in the Big Apple back in 2003. I also took pictures, but this is actually a better souvenir :)

An experiment in coloring

This is a test using Oli's tutorial on finger painting using Photoshop. My first try is not that good, but it's something, anyway. And the tutorial is amazing!

And more New Zealand


This is Fox Glacier, in the South Island, close to Milford Sound. It has an amazing ice cave, but it could not be visited without crampoons :(
Franz Josef glacier, a short drive away, might be better known and easier to reach by feet, but I prefer Fox. Too bad NZ is so far from Spain, it's the best place to spend the holidays!

This is New Zealand ...


Albert Park in Auckland, to be more precise. The clock belongs to the University of Auckland and the park is close to Victoria Street, a very nice place for a walk.



And this is Tehenga beach, in Bethells valley, one hour away from Auckland. It might be better known for some of you because it appears again and again both in Xena and Hercules. It is supposed to be the local beach for kiwis, and, hence, quite packed in summer. From the mediterranean point of view, it could well be the most isolated place in Earth.



And finally, Mt Cook, where Sir Mallory trained to climb the Everest and Gandalf fought the Balrog. Very nice place and it seems to have a face too! From the maori point of view, I think it was supposed to be the top of the canoe that Maui used to fish the north island out of the sea.

I did all these sketches live, back in 2002, when I spent february at the Middle Earth :)

It's anime time!

Now that Xmas holidays are almost over and I've been lazying around all the time, I'm uploading a couple of old sketches from Bleach, from two characters that played the most amazing sword-less fight in shunpo time:
