Traveling Seers

Posted on by luxshine

Traveling Seers is a project very dear to my heart, even if it is on temporary hiatus. It was the last spanish-first comic I did, and the very first Mexican Baseball Comic  published -ok, so I self-published, it still counts.

The story is about a baseball team formed by different kinds of psychics, who play baseball against the ghosts of those who loved the game. And well, I love my team. And I love their manager, Murphy the Goat, who is a bit infamous for… other reasons.

I hope to come back to them soon. I am working on the third volume, but it’s slow. Still, I never forget them.

  

Winchester Mansion

Posted on by luxshine

I’ve always found the Winchester Mansion to be fascinating. Both the house itself with it’s crazy architecture, as the story behind why it has such weird rooms. So of course, she had to be the second of the set of actual haunted houses in human form. She’s young, she’s old, and she’s always there to help you hide.

Pie Dragons 2

Strawberry, Cheese, Raspberry, Pumpkin

This is the continuation of my project of the Pie Dragons (you can see the first set of Dragons here) with the other four flavors. Unfortunately, as I did them individually you can’t see the scale, but Pumpkin is the biggest of them all (although he’s not as big as a real Pumpkin. He might be able to hide in many pots, though), while Raspberry is the smallest.  All the individual Dragons will be available as stickers and, as soon as I figure out how, Magnets. But the next step is, of course, see them acting together in various scenes. So let me know… what would be your favorite combination?

Cosmic Family Family Tree

Posted on by luxshine

I adore the Cosmic Family. They all have a specific role to play (even the one who hates the idea of having a role to play). I’m considering making this a print for conventions, what do you guys think?

(Oh, In case you wonder the order: Granpa Ch’tullu is Mama Chaos’s father. Mama Chaos is Janna, Thanatos, Mahlon, Carmen and Dad’s mother. Dad is the father (and mother) of Lucifer, Gabriel, Raphael, Michael, Cassiel and Ariel)

DC Bombshells

Posted on by luxshine

I have a very, very conflicted relationship with DC Bombshells. When the original figures came out, I didn’t pay much attention to them. Then came the covers and while I wasn’t offended or anything by them, I was a bit confused on how exactly portraying every single DC female as a pinup girl was supposed to be great. Then came the comic. And omg the comic is so amazing. In fact, it’s my favorite comic and I am so, so sad it’s ending soon. Because that comic? Is easily the BEST comic that DC is doing right now. It has EVERYTHING you want in a female-led comic. Every character is great, no one has rape as their backstory (yep, not even Harley. In fact, this may be the ONE Harley Quinn that doesn’t have “horribly abused by the Joker” as her backstory) and the batgirls are so cool. I have to draw them soon too.

  

And yes, it has a lot of great LGBT+ representation, from loving couples to girls experimenting, to bisexual men, to probably asexual girls, to heterosexual healthy couples… all the spectrum is right there.

Volcanic Walk

Another of my half-naked cute guys, this one likes to run near a dormant volcano hot springs. He was really fun to color, as darker skins present a better challenge for lights and shadows.

Villisca Axe Murder House

Posted on by luxshine

After doing the Stephen King Haunted Houses last year, I kind of got inspired to do more, only that instead of doing more literary houses, I decided to try and work with some real pieces of architecture that have been said to be haunted.  And here’s the first of the set:

The now named Villisca Axe Murder House sits on Villisca, Iowa. The whole story is quite dreadful as in one night seven people died inside her, without the murder ever being caught. After… well, some people claimed to see shoes filled with blood if they stayed to sleep there (something that is no longer possible).  So, what other secrets does she keep?

Steampunk Writer’s Block

Posted on by luxshine

I love, love, LOVE Steampunk aesthetic. One of my dreams is one of these days to make a steampunk story. In the meantime, I get to play with the cosmic family. So here are all of them in a steampunk version that well, suits them all very, very well.

 

Under the waves

Posted on by luxshine

Third of my half-naked cute guys. This one likes to swim near corals and beautiful underwater landscapes. And man, it was really, really fun to color all the waves!

Copic, Aquarelle and white gel pens.

Fire Brigade

Posted on by luxshine

Enen no Shobutai is one of those mangas that grabbed me by surprise. I’m not a big fan of Shonen anymore, and I hate Chosen One narratives, but the rich world where fire fighters actually FIGHT fire rather than extinguish fire kind of caught me fast. Like, well, a wild fire. Every character has a great arc, and while there’s one -not portrayed here- that has waaay too much fanservice for my tastes, it’s still a VERY recommended read.

BTW, thanks to some friends there’s a patch that allowed me to scan enough pictures to keep on Calico Chimera  updated on time, but any help to get a more permanent solution will be really appreciated in both Patreon and Ko-fi.
