00' decade 4page' comics

2009-11-07T03:37:00.000-08:00

My intention is not to offend.
This is supposed to be a fammily as "normal" to it's nature as the Simpsons are to the american society; it's just cartoon/comics.
I hope who might watch these will understand.

hmmm, should I stay.. or should I go?...

I'm not against any race, but though we have had some contact with not very cute things from the other side of Europe, in middle east. In a contest for a 4pages comic about this last decade, I thought about condensing it all to one family, which, I think, would be impossible to be so weird(or bad). But again, this is cartoon, and we can even joke about our late grandfather, so why couldn't we have a laugh with the state of (some parts of) the world today?

Here are some of the (less polemic) pictures.
Soon i'll post the whole thing.

Cheers

JUst arrived from switzerland, visiting my siss and my "brother'in law.

Have to say there was excitement, though I couldn't stop thinking about what I had to/should be doing(working in my almost-no-one-really-gives-a-damn-projects I mean) and it was quite troubling for me to deal with that. A good thing was that a week ago the band found someone that MAY be the one we needed to shape our sound to come. We'll see :)

But.. about stuff, I couldn't work much, and I really didnt want to anyway - because everything went so wrong (from stress to oversized files not working, sigh...) - that the Aniboom's deal went out pretty bad. So, nothing there.

But, as I wrote I'd post it here so there was something to see, here it is

(I'll try to quickly post something better so anyone won't get tooooo turned off..)

Watch more cool animation and creative cartoons at Aniboom

:::: Marvel & Aniboom's motion comic contest ::::::

2009-09-27T11:05:00.000-07:00

These days 've been doing NOTHING ELSE but dragging myself through the process of doing my best for this one contest...

http://www.aniboom.com/competition/marvel#sort:Shuffled;page:0;filter:

. Arrive from work, do more work

. Sleep -3 hours than usual and wake 4 job is calling

. bla, bla, bla, bla, bla...

One thing I can say: IT'S NOT EASY!

Other thing.

(at least you'll have some fairly-nice motion comic to entertain you)

..well, back to work. Have one more week to go.

...The power of the other side

2009-09-23T14:40:00.000-07:00

Being able to be on the other side of the mirror. The mirror that looks at what is shown to you.

How many times didn't we wish that to be so.

Nowadays, sometimes, a blink of that magic passes (accidentaly) to this side.

"...That is your privilege."

Like being in the shoes of other just for a blink of an eye.

Kind of "Being john malkovich" game. Just not a game. Not anything, but everything at same time.

Vampiria!!! X'D

Ok.
So yesterday we - aGRESSIV - did some shooting on material for our next videoclip. Vampires, blood, red. Personally i'd prefer to have seen more blood, but...
A group effort is what it is: a group effort :)
Have some photos here for anyone who's curious. We know vampires aren't the first one will think about when hearing our music, but we trust we have a trick or two that will make it work. Or else we wouldn't do it like this X')

preparing the stuff

A lot of times you end up thinking about something you did and didn't want to do. Well, it would be cool if we'd have the choice to do 'CTRL+Z' wouldn't it?

But we can't.

All we can do is to move on and learn from mistakes. Well, at least learn from those that don't repeat so much. When it does... well, you just know something's wrong. And when something's wrong you got to fix it, because when one doesn't it will come back to haunt you. Again.. and again... and again... and again... 'CTRL+Z'

(pfff...)

Don't know how, don't know where, but this will be a character on the story!

aGRESSIV pages; one more out...

2009-09-12T10:02:00.000-07:00

This is out for the virtual audiobook that hopefully aGRESSIV(the band I proud to be part of) will have on with the tracks from the "Out of control" album. Yet, these are unconfirmed images weather to be staring or not in the book.

Thoughts on Music industry (and beyond) - I "Chronicle about the past, the present and future"

2009-09-10T15:01:00.000-07:00

We all might have crossed eyes and ears one time or another with news from an artist we once admired and then.. never, ever, heard about again.
Maby we didn't hear about them sooner because they(band) split/disapeared, or even because we don't have the same interests anymore, and therfore we don't follow the same 'media' to know about.

I've been thinking about that, because some 'nu metal nostalgia' seems to be haunting me these days. Lol, I'm listening to Slaves on Dope, and I've got brand new Crossbreed album ready for me to listen to it, so, I gess I'm pretty busted, lol.

All in all, what I intent to write is that, I've been thinking about all this rollercoaster effect. Meaning: Some of these bands I'm talking about - Nothingface, Professional murder music, 40 below summer, Nonpoint, Alien ant farm, the list goes on.. - got to be over the top, big labels, tours and all, 10 years ago, then we just stoped reading/hearing about 'em.

And the first question might be: What happened?

Well, the question I'm putting myself is that one, but in another terms. Sure we all know the interest and trending factors justify the suffocation of all of the info about them, but then again, I ask: What happened to those bands? Did they continued to persue their musical career, or simply call it quits?

I've been doing some investigation and I find it to be 50/50.

As sorry as I am to get to know, Haste has call it quits, but from what I can tell Professional murder music have never give up, and Finch are together again.

I'm not, obviously, talking strictly about one genre, but about bands and artists that do, or do not refuse to quit just because they're not the next big scene anymore, or didn't even get to reach that point in the first time.

About some, like PMM, I found they aren't in a notorious label anymore and therefore, survive with the same strenght as an "amateur" band that fights with all the guts it has. We have to bound to this kind of strenght to fall so deep and still, have the guts to keep going on. It is also a great proof of passion for what they do.

Why? Because they hardly will have the same oportunity of exposure anytime soon - trend factor maby - and have no serious money to gain from what they do nowadays. Still, they keep doing it.

So, what I ask is this: Would you have this kind of strenght if it were you? It's kind of easier when you don't have to drag others from out of the quicksand along with you(do remember).

New drawing 4 the new "book"..

2009-09-09T23:32:00.000-07:00

This is a new drawing I've been doing for this actual project of a comic book of mine. This character would be designated as non-important, but I found it cool all the same, so I decided to make a more detailed drawing of it anyway.

If it looks cool, it might be cool, lol

New sketches & comics' drama-thoughts

2009-09-09T14:00:00.000-07:00

I've been drawing a new comic book - though, it will be the first i'll take to an end.. if I do, sigh..

Anyway, these are some sketches I've been doing for the 3rd and 4th pages

What is it about? ...well, I'm still trying to find that out. Only have some few crazy ideas, but hope to bring something interesting out. I've been trying to do so at least. X')

Meanwhile there's a new comics' contest here in the country(Portugal); i'll check what if I'm interested or not to play that game this year.
