Mr. Quixote´s pictures
Another 3 pieces about the first anti hero, for an exhibition I don´t remember where. The dark one is supposed to be the way Don Quijote sees himself, an hero in postapocalyptic frazzetaesque world. The one of the clouds means that even in a wasteland the ghost of a big man is a powerful force, or something like that. Also, the title, "Por la manchega llanura" refers to a song of the best singer-songwriter of Spain, Joan Manuel Serrat, and his adaptation of the poem "Vencidos" by León Felipe. And the one with me reading Don Quijote and surrounded by Art means that we still can get crazy today easily with all of the entertainment and rubbish at our disposition.
Dredd in Christmas
An illustration with Dredd and the Dark Judges. Good characters. Here I learned how to do Dave Stewart´s colors.
Bolívar!
3 paintings done for an itinerant exhibition around the theme of Simón Bolívar, called "El Sueño de Simón Bolívar", pretty big for me, 130x90cm. It started in Cantabria, Spain and will finish in Venezuela next year. I hope Hugo don´t expropiate them!

Vincent Price Presents 36
And, in October, my first book in USA, Vincent Price Presents #36, from Bluewater Comics. Another issue is done, but I still don´t know if it will be the next or not. No cheating here, the interiors are done in the same way as the cover, fully painted. Yes, for once in the last years the content looks a little bit like the cover! I´m too lazy today to ask the editor if I can use some of the artwork here, but I guess that I don´t hurt nobody if I just put a couple of panels here, not even a complete page, the cover and an "obscure" page of character sketches. I loved the mousy girl, I would have liked to have her in more pages.
Zarjaz 12!
My second published comic outside Spain. The first one was a few years ago in Japan -strange. Two painted pages, script by Alexi Conman. Thanks to Dave Evans. Hope you like it. As we all love this things I show you the before and the after of two panels.
