To be honest, my interest right know is on slice-of-life anime (and
Tarantino-Rodriguez style movies, but I won't draw fanart about that ) I also have been planning on making my own manga with my own characters. 'Why a Manga?' you may ask and 'why not a comic?'. Well, the main reason is that mangas usually don't need color and are a lot less complicated than an average looking comic book. Also, because of the kind of story I have in mind (read: no action, no heroes. Just normal girls having a normal life, with some comic situations of course), the manga format will work a lot
better.

So I make this as some kind of farewell for Teen Titans. I'm not complaining though. The time while I liked the show really rocked and it leaved a good impression on me. And if you like one of the pictures I made and wanna leave a comment, go ahead. I still care about your comments.

PD: I hope I won't return crawling drawing TT fanart on a near future lol

+ Scenes were the bad guys travel on big trucks, you know, a convoy. Don't know why, maybe Transformers had something to do about it.
+ Characters who use gas masks. It's not a fetish, it's just that I like to hear distorted voices.
+ Movies were the enemies are part of a military corporation (private or from the goverment), and of course wear military gear.
+ If there are two groups of villains in a movie/cartoon/game, I like it when they fight beetwen them.

F.E.A.R. (a videogame) has most of these things, so I had a hell of a good time with it.
Planet Terror features a scene where the bad guys appear on big trucks, are part of the military AND wear gas masks, all of that on the night. Man I must watch that movie.

If I were to film a movie or draw a comic, I would include all those elementes on it.

I know, this is a weird random thing. I just felt like posting it.

The situation is that I've been drawing a lot of girls lately and I realized something that may cause me a lot of trouble in the near and far future: I have absolutely no sense of fashion. My entire wardrobe consists of black/blue shirts and black/blue jeans. The thing is that I always have to wear something black. Some of my friends even think I'm a goth because of that. If I have horrible taste for myself being a guy, go imagine my fashion sense for girls.

Now, this is a question for all of you girls: can you give me some pointers about clothing, not for me, I mean clothing for girls. Something about color combinations would be nice (be as detailed as you want, don't worry). Also a link to a website were I can find girl clothes would be great (I'd try to watch girls on my town, but I would feel like a stalker doing it).

Take in mind I'm talking about young girls (12-13 years old, that's why I said I felt like a stalker). I don't want to end up drawing little girls on thongs and mini-skirts.

Any help will be really apreciated. ]]> ~ghost085 http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/12853131/ http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/12853131/ Sat, 05 May 2007 14:29:21 PDT
I just want to let you know that I do read all your comments and that I really appreciate when you give me faves and watches (I can think of a pun right now but I think you can figure it out anyway).

By the way, I haven't really been doing NOTHING at all. My sketch block is full of new drawings. I've been working on some original characters I want to develop (no superheroes, just normal characters) and when the time is right I'll show them to the people.

I'm sorry to tell you this, but I think my Teen Titans drawings will be less and less over time (like if they haven't been spare lately anyway). Its just that I don't find the motivation I had before. I still like TT but I don't really feel like drawing fanart of it anymore. I think I'll finish the Formative Days series and that will be it. I fear the main reason many people watched me will disappear. Only time will tell.

Oh, and as a final announcement. I'm practically graduated from College now. I just have to receive my Diploma. You can give cheers if you want to

Then April 6th came and most critics liked the film. It even got a 81% score at Rotten Tomatoes (more that I expected). But it turns out you people in the US aren't watching the movie. Even cr*p like the "Are we (insert variable here) yet?" franchise is having better results. Now I have my doubts if this movie will ever come to Central America. Man I'm kinda frustrated.

I got thinking, "It's pretty easy to realize when somebody is stealing art, I mean, you just have to look how the styles of some pictures will be radically different compared to others".

Well, the last day I was looking at some of the drawings I've made so far and realized HOW D*MN DIFFERENT my drawings are compared to each other. I mean, look at the entire merchandise series. On each comic the caracters look different. It's a miracle nobody has acused me of stealing art.

Do you think there are some recognizable quirks on my pictures? Besides bad grammar of course

I think it's time I develop a style and stay true to it.

I finished my internship (it was cool, meet many interesting people) and now I have to write a monograph about the things I did while I was there.

Cause my brothers are busy working on the computers I thought "let's start handwriting it for now". Since it's been a looong time since the last time I wrote with cursive letter (I think I haven't used it since primary school) I dediced to give it a try. MY GOD, WHAT A MESS. Everything looks like it was written by a pirate (a cult one, of course). Sometimes I have to write a letter and I end up writing another, I don't remember how some capital letters are suppoused to look like (so I improvise on those ones), I mix cursive letters with normal letters...

I always had the theory that anybody who can draw has nice handwritting (it doesn't works the other way, sorry P)). I guess this experience explains why it's so dificult to me to draw nice, round lines. I have to start practicing, A LOT.


ESPAÑOL

Ya termine mi internado (estuvo bien, conoci mucha gente interesante) y ahora tengo que escribir una monografia sobre las cosas que hice mientras estuve alli.

Debido a que mis hermanos estan ocupados con las computadoras pense "voy a escribirla a mano por ahora". Ya que ha pasado muuuucho tiempo desde la ultima vez que use letra cursiva (creo que no la he usado desde escuela primaria) decidi intentar usarla. POR DIOS, QUE DESASTRE. Todo luce como si fue escrito por un pirata (uno culto, por lo menos). A veces tengo que escribir una letra y acabo escribiendo otra, ya no recuerdo como se escriben algunas letras mayusculas (en esos casos improviso), a veces mezclo letra de molde con letra de carta...

Siempre he tenido la teoria de que cualquiera que puede dibujar bien tiene una buena escritura a mano (pero no viceversa, lo siento ). Supongo que esta experiencia explica porque me es tan dificil dibujar lineas nitidas. Necesito empezar a practicar. BASTANTE.

I suppose all this mean I'll be a little more active at DA now. I hope.... ]]> ~ghost085 http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/9290563/ http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/9290563/ Thu, 06 Jul 2006 09:53:23 PDT By the way, I wrote "Freedom" because I won't be free at all, I'll still depend on my parents until I can get on my own feet. But I won't have to worry anymore about classes and tests and that kind of stuff

On other things, I know I haven't submited anything or logged-in in ages, and it is not because I'm busy... I'm just too lazy right know. BTW I decided that the next thing I'll submit must be a non TT drawing. I don't have anything against Teen Titans, but I want to try something else before I go back to my yes, TT comics

"How do you explain to a blind person what colour blue is like?"
You see, someone who became blind, sad as it may be, already has an advantage over those persons who where born blind. They know about colors, geometric figures, the human body, faces, flowers, sky, clouds, grass, anything. The people who where born blind probably don't have an idea about those things.

Now, when my teacher said that he was referring to the fact that sometimes language limits our imagination. There are moments when words aren't enough to describe something. I couldn't think of a good sentence to describe colours to someone who has never seen them. The best I could think of were feelings: blue is like peace, red can either be anger or love, etc.

I'm really limited when it comes to using my imagination. I have to open my mind a little more.

And you, how do you explain to a blind person what colour blue is like? ]]> ~ghost085 http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/8447743/ http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/8447743/ Wed, 12 Apr 2006 11:02:07 PDT
Well, what the hell was that? Nothing, just trying to post something about me. I've been really busy lately and that allowed me to put my drawings on perspective. For one thing, I decided that if I'm gonna make a series I'l WRITE THE DAMN THING FIRST(WTDTF). That's because I've though of like seven ways to continue "Formative days". It seemed so clear when I drew the first one now I can't easily thing of a way to continue it. Well it'll come to me eventualy. Second, I'll stick with my technique (drawing on paper, vectorizing with Corel, painting with Paint Shop Pro) because it gives me good results. Inking directly on paper is not for me (I'm too clumsy).

I have such a big idea on mind, but to do it I have to improve on poses and backgrounds, improve my english, and most importantly WTDTF (hey I just create an acronym). I hope I can bring my ideas to life. ]]> ~ghost085 http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/7668354/ http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/7668354/ Sat, 21 Jan 2006 15:54:04 PST

A los hermanos hondureños que encontraron mi cuenta. Gracias por invitarme a su grupo (y gracias especialmente a Chente por añadirme a su lista de amigos). Espero que no piensen que soy un estirado por el hecho de hacer todo en ingles. Es solo que los comics que hago no tienen publico en Honduras. Voy a ver que proyecto pienso y que todos podamos disfrutar. Es mas, si tienen ideas mandelas por medio de una nota (eso si, nada de politica por favor).
Un saludo. ]]> ~ghost085 http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/6855361/ http://ghost085.deviantart.com/journal/6855361/ Mon, 24 Oct 2005 13:43:54 PDT
I think is funny to do drawings and to post them here so people can comment about them. I had a great welcome by a lot of wonderful persons, who also admire my art. Is great to see that someone actually likes the things I do. (I'm sorry about my english, I speak spanish).

About the comics, this is very random to say but there it is: Some people may think "Man, this guy is a clown, he must make people around him happy, and laugh and stuff" but the fact is that I am a very normal and shy person (If you were out on a date with me you'll be bored to tears).

I Also found out something. The mayor part of the people who likes my art is female. Thats a surprise to me, I wish I were that interesting to women in real life.

So long, its been a nice experience and I hope to be around here a long time. ]]> ~ghost085
