Totoro Forest Project ( updated: BLOG! )

Again thanks to Guerald Guerlais and Dice Tsutsumi, I´m involved in something great: an art auction to help saving a forest. The forest that inspired Mr. Hayao Miyazaki to make his masterpiece "My Neighbour Totoro": the Sayama Forest !!

Everything is better and fully explained on the oficial website : http://totoroforestproject.org/

And this is my part on it. Watercolors and markers .

UPDATE : There´s a blog created to bring fresh news about the show and many curious things and profiles of some of the artists involved.

Yulkukany- 3 rough pages

Pages 4 ,5 & 6 of the new book. The rest of the 54 are also finsihed and I´ve recently started the coloring stage.

These pages lack some FX´s , so just for you to get into the mood, add some rain, some trees waving by the wind and some misty lights at this night scene. Yep, it looks better!! :D

¡ Una falla en Valencia !

Me he quedado de piedra al recibir mail de mi amiga Susana (seguid el link a su magnífico blog) : en las fallas de Valencia de este año hay una version libre de algunos diseños del comic "El Mago de Oz"!! Pero mejor que os lo cuente ella, que para eso se lo ha currado muchísimo , como siempre. Un abrazo enorme, Susana!! :)
