There you go. It has been a full year since that first character. It was a great experience and also a challenge for myself. I started the 365 characters project because I wanted to generate fresh content for my blog regularly and also because I wanted to grow as a cartoonist.
It started back in February 2011 when I was working with my pals on an animation studio. There we talked about videogames and animation and many cool things and that fueled my ideas so, at some point, I really wanted to start something bigger than before.
Anyway, I still have lots of work to do related to this project. I’m starting a huge poster with all the characters (some have been asking, thanks a lot!) and a couple of side projects. Also I would be working on this site to fix a few things and more content. Thank you for reading and for all your nice comments and support during this year.
Well, here it is my final character for the series. He is a powerful monster chimera with lots of things to teach if you are there to listen. Anyway, it was a really cool experience, and lots of work too. I want to sincerely thank you for reading my blog and for the kind comments on my facebook, twitter and here. It has helped me a lot to keep going. So, well, it feels cool to finish something.
…One more to go.
This big elephant is a playful and very noble. He just wants to play with his new army friends. They are trying to teach him how to enter in the enemy’s city without making too much noise, but he is not getting it. Still, he lets them play hide and seek on his mount. The Trojans can’t sleep with all the noise they are making.
Here it is a brave minotaur warrior swinging his sword to protect the little chickens from the evil goblins. He just wants to have peace on the magic valley without somebody eating somebody, that’s all. Anyway, fantasy concepts are always very cool.
Movies are almost a new thing if you compare them with other type of art. Still, there is a huge legacy made by all those people who made those classic films. This cartoon motion picture director is really happy to do his part on the industry. He hopes his movie becomes a huge success so he can make many more films in the future.
The wild west is a tough place. You need to be prepared for anything that the life sends you, even if is some horrible decease or the gold fever. On the other side, even if most people doesn’t have manners, there is not a rule that says that you can’t bathe yourself almost every week. The same with your horse. This cartoon ugly bandit knows it.
This cartoon small flame has been fighting the shadows for a lot of time. He and his friends just defeated the evil and freed their homeland but now they have a bigger quest; to defeat the shadows from the nearest kingdoms. His advantage on the battlefield is he can start up a fire pretty much anywhere, that bothers the shadows a lot because they hate fireworks.
She is a tough amazon warrior who has been training very hard her whole life. That temple, and pretty much all in the island, isn’t going to be safe just by itself; the amazon army is need it to protect it from outsiders. I always liked mythology so I wanted to draw something in that flavor.. and by the way, I love how the armor ended.
The terror of the ring, this cartoon wrestling crocodile is the former champion of the league. Actually there is no real match for his skills so he’s waiting for a new challenger to come. lucha libre animal style!
As a powerful alien, this guy can use telekinesis to move objects around and amuse people on the spacial circus. When he gets mad he shoots his mind ray to the audience. But he is a nice guy after all.
He is just a kid with a powerful weapon; his onion smell. Also he can make others cry easily, what is a problem in the school, because nobody wants to play with him. Anyway, he’ll grow up and find good friends, someday.
Genies with magical powers are always cool. Controlled by a wise wizard who knows the spell, this Jinn or Djinn can fly, create objects from thin air and kidnap princesses. One of the first books I read when kid was One thousand and one nights, that fueled my imagination.
That’s why is not so good to eat candy all day. Or at least this is what happens to this weird cartoon flying creature. I like how the texture came out.
I believe that human nature is more complex than just good or evil. But some creatures, as this little guy, has a problem keeping up with that and wants to see everything one or another. Also, I believe in the human capacity for good more than for bad.
This Kangaroo may not be ready to be the mom of a dinosaur, but either way she has to do her best to keep this little creature alive. It would pay off in the near future when predators get there and he can protect her.
Here is just one of the many different kind of Death Spirits that live on the world. He is the responsible to bring happiness or punishment to the dead trees. Also he can float over the forest, what I think is cool.
She likes cake and all those sweet things made by fancy pastry bakers so whenever she has the chance, she goes to the opera, where they sell those. I don’t know if she uses her binoculars to see the stage or if she uses it to see the food. Anyway, Seeing opera singers live is a whole cool experience, even if you don’t understand what they are saying.
This cartoon vagabond has been learning how to save food for the winter, using a trashed car for storage. The problem is that he loves beans, so he ate all the cans in one night. Now he has to start all over again.
This cartoon kid is very happy that someday he’s gonna be the one driving the train, so right now he is doing his best to learn how to operate the railroad. Either way, working with coal may be exhausting.
