A Pin-up for Tomás


Yes, I know: this girls seems familiar to another one I drew for a friend (go to A Pin-up for Jorge). It's the same one, actually. A friend of mine saw the drawing of the pin-up I had made for Jorge¡s birthday and asked if I would draw one for him. I said "sure, I'll show you all the pictures I collected and you choose the one you like the most". Well, he chose this model. I told him since it was the same model I wasn't going to do the same drawing twice, but I would keep my word of making the pin-up he had chosen. So I used the same model, but, as you can see, I did some changes in the clothing and her expression and also in the way I drew her, like this time everything was made with pen and no pencil was used. Anyhow, I hope you like it. I'm pretty proud of this one because I think it's an improvement compared to the one I did for Jorge. I guess because this time I allowed myself to go a little wild in some points and I also had more time to do it.

Saturn V (Apollo XI) for Kit (in pieces)

 

Saturn V (Apollo XI) for Kit



Never, ever again I'm doing this crap. It took me more than I expected to complete this replica of the Apollo V rocket that took mankind for the first time to the moon, and I'm so done with it. It took to much time, although he liked it a lot. I guess that was a reward.

Here it's the finished look when I put together all the pieces with all the characteristics and all parts labelled. Of course I took this information out of a poster that I found in the Internet. Before I started this drawing I had no idea about any of these things. Well, actually, a funny thing to say is that I did knew most of the technical words because of "Star Trek"

The Eternal Lover ("Favole: Stone Tears" - Victoria Francés)

The original is not mine. I drew this from a trilogy called "Favole" written and illustrated by the Spanish artist Victoria Francés (The original can be found in page 22 of the first book).
The title for this drawing comes from a story my mother made up for her. Actually I had forgotten about that story until I found this drawing.
I like the leaves and the hair, but I don't like neither the clothing, nor the wings (they were that small in the original as well) and I'm not quite convinced about the face

Car - Lamborghini Veneno for Luis


I have this friend who loves cars. It's been said several times by another friend to describe him that "He looks more a car than a woman", and I agree with that statement. So this is what I did for his birthday. I think this car looks really weird and is ridiculous expensive, but I know he loved this car when he saw it in the news. Therefore I draw it for him in his birthday. I hope you like it, and I swear the colours in the picture were as you see it here. So I don't know exactly what colour this car is for real because it had black, blue and red in some parts of the bodywork.

A Portrait of a Good Friend


Marta is a friend I made in Germany. Though we come from the same city, which is not too big, I had never met her until I started my ERASMUS year. I think she's very pretty: with dark brown eyes, weird-shaped nose and her beautiful dark hair. She isn't my best friend, but she's a good friend, so I wanted to make something special on her birthday (plus, I really wanted to draw her because she's really cute). I thought this drawing will please her, and it did. Now I'm sharing it with you, guys, because it's one of the best drawings I've made so far. Specially I'm really proud of the hood, that took me like 15min just to figure out how to start drawing the "hairs" of it.

Roses for Andreea




Yes, my friends, flowers again. A girl-friend of mine had his birthday a month ago and I did this for her because, you know, flowers are easy to draw and usually girls love them (plus I had already drawn for her a plane because she had asked me to, so it isn't like I had to do anything actually). I don't know if you can actually tell because I had to make some "arrangements" to the photo I took of the drawing (or it was impossible to see it properly), but the two roses aren't the same red.
