So I had the privilege to be part of this month's issue of SKULLKICKERS issue#18. The short story was written by the awesome Blair Butler(G4's "Fresh Ink"). It was tons of fun to work on, and a great learning experience. I was very humbled to see my work amongst so many awesome creators. Thanks again to Jim Zubkavich :iconzubby: for the great opportunity. I hope you guys go pick up a copy at your local comic shop, and check out more of Jim's other work!!!!

"Although conceived as an educational, multimedia event for students, Gigacon is open to the public. Learn tricks of the trade from professionals. Check out the work for sale in the Artists Alley. Try your hand at one of the many activities or contests . Gigacon is meant to be fun and inspirational."

Hey dudes! I know, Ive been slacking in the update department, truth is, Ive been super busy! I recently moved to the great city of Chicago for a new, awesome job over here. Aside from that, I'm still doing a lot of freelance on the side. Ive been getting a few request, and commissions, but unfortunately due to my schedule, I'm putting them off until further notice.
Chicago is wonderful btw, at least from what Ive seen the 2 times Ive been out of my apartment.  There are a lot of dogs here too! and babies, and dogs carrying babies. But really, I'm loving it over here, Ive already made a lot of good friends.

Now, The real reason why I'm posting is because I wanted to share something very special with you guys. About a year ago me and my good buddy Scott Brown :iconanimatedtako:  conceived an idea, we worked on this thing for endless hours, creating a rich story with wonderful characters, In a world of its own, full of color, beauty and wonder, and guess what? nothing happened! that must have happened like 5 more times afterwards.  The thing is, we finally got our shit together, and I'm happy to announce Bananas and Binary! [link] Our first webcomic ever.

We are super exited, and very anxious to begin. Not long now, we are just dealing with a few technicalities. I will be sure to make a post when the first strip is up.
Be sure to visit Mr. Brown :iconanimatedtako: and read his journal on the matter.

Thanks!

Enrique.

GIGACON 2011

Journal Entry: Sat Jan 1, 2011, 9:51 AM



I copied this from my good friend :icondanielaraya:


If you're in the D.C area on the weekend of January 14th, you should really stop by to check out this convention.

What is it? Here's an excerpt from the website : Gigacon is an educational based, multimedia convention sponsored by The Art Institute of Washington (Aiw). We incorporate many of the majors at the AiW, such as; Media arts and Animation, Game Art, Graphic Design, Audio Production, Fashion, and many more. And we try our best to bring in professionals from each of those fields. Students, as well as faculty members, and outside visitors gain knowledge, tips, and tricks from the professionals at Gigacon.


Some of the folks that will be attending:

Humberto Ramos

Robert Atkins :iconrobertatkins:

Joe Benitez :iconjoebenitez:

Brian Stelfreeze

Ben McSweeney aka :iconinkthinker:

...and MORE. This is the second time around for the con, which means it's still starting out, it's smaller, and it's WAY more intimate. You'll have more time to get really thorough critiques from these masters of art, and there's time to actually hold conversations with these guys, which you unfortunately don't really get at the massive conventions like SDCC, where there are a thousand distractions every 7 seconds. There's more info on the website, including a more comprehensive list of the guests that'll be attending.
