Eki in the clouds - Chapter 11: I will... punish you! (Part 2)

<Previous chapter / Part 1 /Hi!We pick up the story at a very special point for me :) First of all, sorry for not having updated a lot of material these past weeks, but the publication of the comic is going really well! I&#39;m re-formatting the pages to work like a traditional comic book and I can&#39;t believe we&#39;ve reached over 224 pages! 🥳With them, the first season of Eki in the clouds comes to an end. But I already have new adventures in mind for a second season, because we&#39;ll h...

Eki en las nubes - Capítulo 11: Yo... ¡te castigaré! (Parte 2)

<Capítulo anterior / Parte 1 /¡Hola!Retomamos la historia en un punto muy especial para mí :) Ante todo, disculpad por no haber subido mucho material estas pasadas semanas. ¡Pero la publicación del cómic va viento en popa! Estoy dando un nuevo formato a las páginas para que funcione como un comic book tradicional y ¡no me puedo creer que hayamos llegado a más de 224 páginas! 🥳Con ellas, la primera temporada de Eki en las nubes llega a su fin. Pero ya tengo en mente nuevas aventuras ...

Mr. Bunny / Sr. Conejito

I keep adapting the pages to comic book format and I&#39;m happy with the result! :)In the meantime, I&#39;m preparing this cute version of Mr. Otsoa (or Mr. Bunny? xD). Because he&#39;s a serious gentleman, but mischievous hahaha.Different versions will be coming for those of you who are subscribed to Eki!//Sigo adaptando las páginas a formato comic book y estoy quedando contento con el resultado! :)Mientras, os preparo esta versión cute del Sr. Otsoa (¿o Sr. Conejito? xD). Porque es un señ...

COVER art

Claramente, esto es algo que tengo que mirar con el editor, pero ¿qué opción de portada os gusta más?Voy a darle una vuelta y si se me ocurra alguna otra opción os la haré saber. Quiero mostraros el proceso de esto, que también es vuestro 💗 //Clearly, this is something I need to discuss with the editor, but which cover option do you like best?I&#39;ll give it a go and if I come up with any other options I&#39;ll let you know.

Here we go! / ¡Allá vamos!

My friends, I&#39;m alive!How&#39;s it going, I&#39;m excited and scared in equal parts! I was able to meet with my editor this week and it seems to be going well :)It&#39;s still too early to say anything, but I&#39;m compiling all the material and putting together a mock-up to see how Eki will look on paper, it&#39;s hard to believe that we&#39;ve already done more than 150 pages!!!!I&#39;m excited to close the details of the work, as I still don&#39;t know exactly how much material will fit i...

Nerea & the kids

I am not happy with the last vignette in which two children mess with Nerea. That&#39;s why I&#39;ve tried to rethink their designs, what do you think?This week I will continue the story where I left off, so let&#39;s get going!//No estoy contento con la última viñeta en la que dos niños se meten con Nerea. Por eso he tratado de replantear su diseño. ¿Qué os parece?Esta semana continuaré la historia donde la dejé, ¡ya nos ponemos en marcha!

Character Ideas / Ideas de personajes

A while ago I introduced you to a new blond character named Eder and now I&#39;m trying out another daddy who might fit into the pages of the comic.And these are not just tests. They are characters that I think could fit in the future, in the second or third season of the comic that I&#39;m already thinking about in my mind.What do you think? What kind of characters would you like to see appear in the life of Eki and his friends?//Hace un tiempo os presenté un nuevo personaje rubio llamado Eder...

Happy New... Project?

Hello, friends! I&#39;ve been a bit anxious for a few days. I&#39;ve received a very interesting proposal and I&#39;m a nervous wreck! It seems that the possibility of Eki&#39;s adventures being printed on paper is closer than ever! That&#39;s why I&#39;m less active these days... Everything is still up in the air and I don&#39;t want to make any false steps. I have to weigh up the pros and cons, clarify and close some issues...To see that everything is favourable for the future of Eki and his f...

Eki en las nubes - Capítulo 11: Yo... ¡te castigaré! (Parte 1)

<Capítulo anterior / Parte 2 /Puede que para muchxs de vosotrxs la historia avance despacio, pero para mí es un milagro que un proyecto tan personal para el que saco tiempo de donde puedo, llegue ya al capítulo 11 con casi 280 viñetas dibujadas.Se viene un capítulo emotivo, para el que he querido preparar una paleta de color acorde al tono de la historia. Casi puedo ver los fondos de la serie de los 90 de Sailor Moon en esos colores :)¿Os imagináis ya cómo seguirá?ACTUALIZACIÓN 1: ¡Ya...

Eki in the clouds - Chapter 11: I will... punish you! (Part 1)

<Previous chapter / Part 2 /Maybe for many of you the story is progressing slowly, but for me it&#39;s a miracle that such a personal project, for which I find time wherever I can, has already reached chapter 11 with almost 280 vignettes drawn.An emotional chapter is coming, for which I wanted to prepare a colour palette according to the tone of the story. I can almost see the backgrounds of the 90&#39;s Sailor Moon series in those colours :)Can you already imagine how it will go on?UPDATE 1: I&...

Some short stories? / ¿Algunas historias cortas?

I&#39;ve been thinking for some time about doing single chapters to tell alternative stories that are not linked to the main plot of the comic. Small spin-offs that would tell horror stories, fantasy or whatever with Eki and his friends. Always with his characteristic humour and spicy moments.Of course, this would delay the publication of the main story... So, I want to know your opinion, do you like the idea or do you prefer to focus on the main story?//Llevo tiempo pensando en hacer capítulos...

Help me get dressed

I&#39;m back! And as I continue the story of the comic, I want to add a new design to Batman&#39;s family! Remember when Eki and Mr. Otsoa appeared as Robin and Batman? Well, now it&#39;s Zor&#39;s turn. Who do you think it will be? Different versions of the costumes are coming :)UPDATE 1: Selina Kyle is characterised as a somewhat ambiguous character, oscillating between good and evil in pursuit of her own interests. I think Zor shares certain similarities with the cat woman.//¡Estoy de vuelta...

Easy to read? / ¿Fácil de leer?

Kemen

Kemen means &#34;courage/impulse&#34; in Basque. He is a self-confident and very direct boy. He doesn&#39;t like people who appear weak, but he is all armour.Sometimes he doesn&#39;t measure the impact his words can have, so people often take him for someone arrogant and somewhat superficial.//Kemen significa &#34;valor/impulso&#34; en euskera. Es un chico seguro de sí mismo y muy directo. No le gusta la gente que se muestra débil, pero es todo una coraza.A veces no mide mucho el impacto que p...

Adei

Adei means &#34;respect/kindness&#34; in Basque, representing unwavering friendship and unconditional support for Eki.He is an intelligent, forward-thinking and very cheerful boy.

Eder

From time to time I like trying out new character designs and imagine what role they would play in the story.This is Eder, which means &#34;beautiful&#34; in Basque. An angel&#39;s look but with somewhat wilder tastes :)What do you think, would you like to see him in the comic in the future?//De vez en cuando me gusta probar nuevos diseños de personajes e imaginar qué papel tendrían en la historia.Este es Eder, que significa &#34;bello&#34; en euskera.

Boogeyman

Hi! While I&#39;m planning the continuation of Adei&#39;s chapter (which is almost finished), I want to show you different designs, like the one I made of Professor Turo.What do you think, do you like the idea of me doing random character designs apart from the comic? I&#39;m sure different versions of this bearded man will happen :PThanks for your patience!UPDATE 1: Ok, these tattoos are driving me crazy lolUPDATE 2: The first version is finished! And how difficult it is to decide when a design...

Happy Pride Month!

I wanted to draw Eki in the outfit I wore yesterday at the Pride demonstration. And I thought it was the perfect moment to publicly shout that we still need to make visible the diversity of BEING and LOVING as we want!Even more so in these troubled times when we seem to be taking steps backwards.Let everyone be who they want to be and love who they want to love.Happy and proud! //Quería dibujar a Eki con el outfit que llevé ayer el día de la manifestación por el Orgullo. Y me ha parecido un ...

Dreaming of... a comic book?

It&#39;s hard to believe that I&#39;ve been drawing Eki&#39;s stories for almost two years now. Even I didn&#39;t believe I was capable of carrying out a project of this magnitude that, little by little, is taking shape and colour. And all, in part, thanks to your support!I can&#39;t invest as much time in the comic as I&#39;d like to, as I have another job that keeps me busy 8 hours a day... But I hope that Eki and his friends will appear on paper one day :)That&#39;s why I want to show you thi...

Professor Turo

The new trailer for Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Purple is out and I couldn&#39;t resist doing a quick sketch of one of the Pokémon teachers 😊He&#39;s all we need, don&#39;t you think?//Ya ha salido el nuevo trailer de Pokémon Escarlata y Pokémon Púrpura y no he podido resistirme a hacer un boceto rápido de uno de los profesores Pokémon 😊Él es todo lo que necesitamos, ¿no creéis?
