The Blue-eye Cat from Tumblr

First drawing here in the UK. I realized I need a lamp because the light I get from the windows or the lights in the ceiling is crap and I almost went blind trying to get the shadows and everything right, although I muss admit I was only trying to capture the eyes, everything else wasn't that much of importance. And I'm pretty happy with the final result... at least taking into account it's been a while since my last drawing.
I should repeat it some day with better light, more time and patience. By the way, as model I used this picture I found in tumblr. Aren't those eyes something?
Sorry for the crappy quality, but I don't have a scanner here, so this is a picture I took with my phone. Unless something changes, I'm afraid that this is going to be the only way for me to upload pcitures in a long time... unless I upload some old ones.
I hope you like it and that you've had a great weekend!

Blanche's return (Sortilèges. Livre 2 - Dufaux & Munuera)

Based on the illustration made by José Luis Munuera in the second book of "Sortilèges" ("Sortilegios" en español). The first appearance of Blanche after the rumors of her death. I liked the badassness of that scene, but I wanted to do my own version of it... an adaptation of Blanche's drawing.
I tried to put more detail in the hair, the face is different, but captures her anger (although the head came out at the end too big for her body), there're more blood stains and I drew some wounds on her (cuts and bruises)... because she seemed to be too "clean" for my taste since she just came back from a battle.
The shadows and blood are made with ball pen, the lines with liquid pen, and I "painted" the leader with pencil to make it look darker.
I hope you like it... and please give it a chance to this comic book... it's pretty neat and fun to read.

Defeated warrior

Her sword just got shattered in pieces... she's been kicked to the ground after her last big battle.
I enjoyed making her armor look weary and, as you can see, trying different positions for her.
Although in a surrender mode, I still think there's some hope left for her... or that's what she thinks, one last chance with the pieces of her sword as a small knife... who knows?

Cowboy Bebop - Spike Spiegel

I made this bookmark for a very special friend who talked me into watching this anime... and I loved it. I knew this was his favorite character (and probably mine) so I drew this based on different pictures and even screenshots of the show. It was pretty fun to do.

Struggle between science and fantasy

So in this page that I found today you can see my struggle: while studying to be an Engineer, I'm always wondering if I would be better off as an artist. This strange fairly-looking sketch was made while studying electricity (as you can see for the math). Both the math and the sketch are rough and were done fast... and none are outstanding, but they are pretty good taking into account the time I took to practice any of them
(I got the highest grade in my class with a 85% in this subject while studying for it only for two weeks and the drawing isn't bad either and took me five minutes)

Learning to use Gimp

Guess who's learning to use Gimp

I still have a lot to work on this cat lady, but I wanted to show it here since it's been a while since I last posted anything. I did it this afternoon on my first attempt to use this program... so I'm pretty hapy with the result so far

Cowboy Bebop - Swordfish II

So, believe it or not, this is a top I did for myself with an old t-shirt and some material paint... I absolutely love this ship. So of course I needed to do something cool like this, it only happens every once in a while that I find something I really want to do for myself artistically and this was one of those times. It turned out OK, although I am not entirely proud because of one of the wings..., but close enough. I've worn it a couple of times and I love it!!
I used this image and another I can't find anymore on google (I swear I've tried) as a reference for this.
