Comics! Special post, introducing TEAM LALAMRAS

2011-03-06T11:21:00.000-08:00

Hi!

Today i launch my online webcomic Team Lalamras. Is a simple, and absurd story of a group of weird loosers, trying to acomplish a misterious plan.

You can read it in English, or Spanish. Subscribe to the RSS feed, because it will be updated every Sunday!

But isn't only avaliable to read there, my friend Chuck created Energy Punch, a site were he publish various comics made by friends.

Lucia sin Sandia, an epic story of a women who rebels against a dictatorship ruled by evil fruits. by Jaliet
Space-Corner, a Sci-Fi Thriller. In space no one can hear you scream... little Justin Bailey. by Keino.
Jimmy Creepy, Private Detective: crime and wambitas in a steampunk world. by Marsupio.
Super Fideos: Super Noodles with his feline sidekick Super Sauce must protect the city for the evil Dr Rice, but is not simple as it seems... by Asertijo.
and at last but not least.. Equipo Lalamras.

The comic creator and all sides talking-drawings-inside-a-square enthusiast Brandon Graham, moved his blog form Livejournal to Wordpress, to the better. please check it.

http://royalboiler.wordpress.com/

King City was one of my favourite titles from 2010 and is in my list of "forever good comics" too, so i'm waiting to pick his new work, Multiple Warheads!

James Stokoe, who i'm doing color for the now delayed Sullivan Sluggers. has a blog too!

http://orcstain.wordpress.com/

and to finish the trilogy of insane comix yunkies: Sheldon Vella did an excellent job doing a brand new website, include many pages of comic to check, even he upload Supertron for free until the dark powers dragged it:

http://romanticmrsheldon.wordpress.com/

wordpress is on fire now!, while i still had to deal with the shitty post editor of blogger (dude, i had to drag the images to put them in order.. that is why i don't even...)

And Mark Smith is funding to make The New Brighton Archealogical Society 2 a reallity (so i can color it). check this article in wired, why Kickstarter can become a excellent sistem to indie creators.

Also Nate, is making his Project Waldo a reality: Image comics is publishing Nonplayer. Check this page.. duuuuuuuuuude. pure quality.

that's for now, read lalamras, and tell me what do you think.

Especial de comic en español: Equipo Lalamras y otras hierbas

2011-03-06T09:53:00.000-08:00

Hola!

Hoy lanzo en mi página mi webcomic Equipo Lalamras. Lo escribí/dibujé por allá en el 2009, planee en hacerlo fanzine pero por mi culpa, por mi gran culpa, al final no pasó nada. Ahora volvió en forma de fichas, redibujado, en español e inglés!. Desde esta semana, actualizado todos los domingos. Promesa de dibujante! jauaja.

Pero no solo en mi página, sino que también se puede leer en inglés en Energy Punch, junto a otros comics creados por varios amigos y gracias a las canas verdes de CHUCK que administra el sitio, hay unos problemillas de hosting asi que si no se ve algo, apliquen f5 jajaja.

Está Lucia sin Sandia, una epica historia de una mujer que se rebela contra una dictadura de frutas humanoides. por Jaliet
Space-Corner, una historia de suspenso y tecnologia, en el espacio... nadie te escuchara gritar pequeño Justin Bailey. por Keino.
Jimmy Creepy, Detective Privado: crimen y wambitas en un mundo steampunk y de la mano de Marsupio.
Super Fideos: Super Fideos junto a su fiel acompañante felino Super Salsa deben proteger la ciudad del malvado Dr Arroz, pero no todo es tan sencillo como parece... por Asertijo.
y por ultimo.. Equipo Lalamras.

Tambén mi buen paisa Compulsivo tiene su sitio de cómics estúpidos llamado La Wea Imbécil, revisenlo que hay cosas chistosísimas!

Tambien Flinisteridius esta publicando su comic Ofúscate!. Aparte de que él hace poco me realizo una entevista en su blog (lean parte 1, 2 y 3 )

Además desde el miercoles se inicia la Feria Visual Delira, donde estará gran parte del jet-set comiquero, pasen, compren fanzines y compartan con l@s cabr@s.

Como ven hay harto pa vacilar en cuanto a comic, ahora escribiré el post version gringa con las cosas interesantes arraund de guorrrd.

Hi i'm not dead. yet.
i'm enjoing the summer also doing some comic coloring work.
lately i've started to feeling more motivated to do things on my own even if they don't have immediate financial success, than working for others, i still have bills to pay but that is another matter.

also i'm focusing more into calligraphy, lettering etc. than drawing is pretty fun, and helps to think more in a concept than a execution. i'm still a noob at this, i need to practice more.

for Valentines Day

Blackletter + Script practice

Paracaidistas = Airborne Forces, but also is a term to party crashers in chile.

the infamous meme

i like that "S"

some monograms of my 'hood inspired in the famous NY and LA ones.

mixing a New Era cap and a carabineros (police in chile) cap

Forever_alone again, in a kinda tattoo script style.

All done in Paint Tool Sai, is a light and simple drawing tool, check it.

Tcngf + Tumblr

2011-01-18T18:19:00.000-08:00

Esto lo realicé por dos razones:

1- Para hacer un cómic ya que me cuesta hacerlos como quiero que sean, un ejercicio para definir estilo y narrativa

2-Para un concurso que al final no gané.

Lápices y Tintas realizadas en papel, con grafito y brushpen (googleenlo, es una excelente herramienta).

Color en Photoshop, enfocado en lograr colores cercanos a los planos, que facilitaran la lectura y otorgaran atmósfera.

El cómic está basado en un universo que lentamente he ido creando donde pretendo realizar una serie de historias. Influenciado por las películas de ciencia ficción, la literatura distópica, los documentales de guerra, el crimen poblacional, la pobreza y los recuerdos de la infancia.

pueden leerlo en la sección de comics de mi sitio.

En otras noticias soy un usuario activo de Tumblr, me gusta ver y compartir imágenes asi que está perfecto para un nerd gráfico como yo haha

Picture Book Report: 100 años de soledad.

2010-08-12T15:59:00.000-07:00

Holaaaa

here's some new Art to show

My illustration of the novel by Gabriel García Márquez, One Hundred Years of Solitude, for the wonderful website Picture Book Report: a group of illustrators choose a book each one and create original art about them. I was accepted as a guest artist and do one image:

---

Mi ilustracion de la novela de Gabriel García Márquez, Cien Años de Soledad, para la página Picture Book Report: Un grupo de ilustradores eligen un libro cada uno y crean arte original para ellos. Fui aceptado como artista invitado para realizar sólo una imagen:

Some process, my main focus this time was do a scene with various elements, i usually tend to do simple compositions. The book have many wonderful things to illustrate but i choose this scene, in a way representing the Buendia family surrounded by many different things, but still being more representational than metaphorical (i could include objects form other parts of the book)

In conclusion, this is a illustration of a certain scene, not for the entire book.

---

Proceso: mi objetivo principal fue ilustrar una escena con varios elementos, usualmente hago composiciones mas austeras. El libro tiene muchas partes maravillosas e "illustrables" pero elegi esta escena, que de una manera representa a los Buendía, envueltos en un sinúmero de cosas, aun asi esta escena es mas "representacional" que metafórica (podria haber incluido objetos de otras partes del libro.)

En conclusion, esta es una ilustracion de cierto pasaje, no del libro por completo.

hand painted sign / letrero hecho a mano

IMMA FIRIN' MAH LAZER

2010-07-31T14:39:00.000-07:00

yesterday i did this test page.
i haven't worked on a finished page since last year, and was good to get back to it.
done with a Pentel Pocket BrushPen on DC bristol board for interiors, i didn't liked the combination, the brushpen is either too "dry" for the paper or the paper is too rough for it for fast/wide brush strokes. but happy with the overall result. looks like I've improved a little :)

check the inks here:
also, i have a updated webpage: http://www.rodrigoaviles.cl/ (doesn't look 100% fine on Chrome, gotta fix that, sorry!)

cars sketches 01

2010-05-04T15:45:00.000-07:00

I've never been interested in cars, but in my opinion this is something that any artist should be able to draw.
this is my first try on cars. they are very small sketches (under 2 inches) for each one.
i started drawing normal models but ended with famous cars from films and TV. now i like cars a bit more!

the first one to name every car on this image, wins a prize!. send me a mail, post here or pm me on twitter!

Hello to the few people who read my blog. Here in Chile we had a great earthquake who destroyed many buildings , took various lives and left many people without a house.

Inking

2009-11-03T19:39:00.000-08:00

Hello people of.. blogs, things are better here lately (pa los k haulan españiol, bajensenn pa abajo)

I'm becoming interested again to start inking (traditional mode on) my drawings (and drawing too, i'm so colorist haha) so i wanted to know if you have advice, (or links to tutotials etc) , specifically in comic inking. i want to use brushes instead of pens, i feel that suit better my style. Also info about paper, inks etc.; Yep you can do nice stuff con the cheapest shittiest paper/ink but it's always good to know.
what paper size do you use to work on comic pages? Do you use a lightbox, or ink over the pencils? who was phone? things like that.

talking about artists, i like the work of guys like Paul Pope, Greg Ruth (Ruth is a inking drybrush-samurai-monster) etc.

------------

Cabros la hago corta, kiero practicar entintado de nuevo, quiero hacerlo bien pa después hacerlo mal con derecho haha. así que tengo unas dudas no tan dudosas:

específicamente pa comic,
que papeles usan?
que tamaño?
(si son de shile mejor, pk las was k me van a decir los gringos no existen acá
que pincel? marca, tamaño?
tengo k ir a preguntar al negocio de la esquina si tienen un Winsor & Newton Serie 7 que regalen?
Que tinta usan?
Cuando ven la tinta no sienten que hay un oscuro abismo insondable que los mira de vuelta?
Uds veian Mekano?
Que es el Alma?

Quiero ser maestro pokemon con pinceles, creo que le van mejor con mi estilo de dibujo.

Originality

2009-10-31T21:52:00.000-07:00

"Originality is not a thing to strive for. If it comes, it is not through striving. The search for originality seldom results in anything worth having. It is a quality inherent in the man; and the best way of being original in your work is to be natural. Perhaps the most useful advice which you could receive is that you be always natural. Never be artificial nor insincere; never copy another person's subject, manner, or method, with the intention of doing as he does. The most original things are often the most simple, because they have come naturally from sincere desire to express what has been seen or felt, in the most direct way."

he estado pensando en esto últimamente. (entre las miles de otras cosas que atormentan mi cabeza hahaha)

sorry guys only in spanish. And yes it's a wild thing.

partiendo de que soy muy malo para escribir, y que probablemente este texto vaya fuera de que es este blog, que debería ser mas sobre mi trabajo de ilustración, aunque va en parte relacionado. Solo quería desahogarme acá y (aunque a muchos no les interese) contar que ultimamente (y no me refiero a hoy, sino que muuchos meses ya) me he sentido muy desanimado, aburrido, desmotivado. Por diversos factores, laborales, personales etc. Una falta de confianza en mi mismo me ha ido menguando de a poco, y no puedo sacar de mi mente los pensamientos negativos. Ya no me interesan las cosas, y sé que es responsabilidad mía cambiar esa actitud. Sólo queria escribirlo acá , no sé por si alguien lo leía, quizas esto sirva como checkpoint y de ahi subir las barritas de poder. No quiero que sea un post emo "oh pobrecito" tampoco (aunque irremediablemente lo será), de hecho quizas no lo publique, o quizas si.... bueno, era eso, Gracias por leer.
