Iota keyholder

It seems that tearaway merchandise is starting to bloom. In this case it is a key holder of sackboy (still the chicken of golden eggs in Mm) dressed as Iota.

There is something very beautiful about seeing the character which u spend so many hours with him coming finally to the real world as a toy. In other jobs the responsabilty of bringing to life a character is usually shared between diferent animators, but not here in Mm. Every jump, every run and every expression that iota does, it's actually not Iota, it's me :)

Cambridge

Last week I went for a one day trip to Cambridge. Well known for its prestigious universities as well as it's celebrity teachers and students like Newton or Hawking, this city is also a very beautiful place with its victorian architecture, green parks and of course the famous ¨punters¨, some kind of english version of the venetian gondolas and gondoleros.

One of the things that caught my attention is how the animals and the inhabitants of this town coexist in harmony, even to a point where you can see free fucking massive cows wandering around in very centric parks. Last time I had this feeling was in Nara, Japan. Amazing!

Tearaway in FAMITSU!

I remember as a teenager struggling to get one import issue of Famitsu, the most prestigious videogame magazine in the word. Well, it turns out that now is my game the one that appears in Famitsu in a full color 4 pages preview. The cycle of life I guess...

Canterbury & Whitstable

It's been a long long time since my last post. Maybe because I really didn't had anything to share or because I was so busy, but the truth is that this blog has been dead for half a year, this is something that I intend to change from now on.
Last saturday I went on a day trip to the east coast of England, Canterbury to be precise. This city is know for it's amazing Cathedral and his ancient history. I was blessed with some sunny spells along the day and I could take really nice pics.
After that I moved to Whitstable by bus. This city is a traditional sailor point that in its recent days has become a second residence for many londoners who love the sea. Along the main harbour is easy to find sailors selling fresh oysters as well as any other kind of delicious sea food.
I have to admit that after a very tough and long winter this day trip showed me how beautiful England can be on a sunny day. I'm already planning my next trip, this time let's head west!
