What a complicated year 2020 is. But that's what we got for dinner.
These are the 4 theme I was able to finish in June 2020. Barely.
Still über busy with orders, editions, commissions and so forth.
These are the shadowboxes I've completed last month:
- Goof Troop: a classic from Super Nintendo, if you don't know the game, go play it now.
- Iron Maiden - The Number of the Beast cover: yeah, some heavy metal album covers tend to be ordered every now and then. This one debuts my new picture frames. I 'm loving them.
- Castlevania Symphony of the Night fully working wall clock, double LED lit shadowbox in almost full papercraft. You didn't see that coming.
No synthwave songs in this video tho. This is a compilation of Instagram videos I tend to share to the community. Probably if you're not the IG kinda person you didn't see these beauties yet.
July and beyond will bring some good stuff. Don't fret. Enjoy the rollercoaster of emotions it has been and, it seems, will continue until who knows when.

This is my first framed diorama for the Castlevania series, only it lacks the frame in this video. ?
Final product should be implemented and some problems will be fixed at the time being.
It is a time consuming job, yet a fulfilling one. The size of the scene is about 12" x 20", give or take, plus the thick frame necessary to host all the piece, that has 2.3" of depth. A plexiglass/glass sheet will encapsulate the final piece, to avoid dust to the stuff.
Este é meio primeiro quadro diorama para a série Castlevania, só falta a moldura ainda no video. ?
O produto final deverá ser implementado e alguns dos problemas corrigidos no momento certo.
É um trabalho que consome tempo, mas é deveras gratificante. O tamanho da cena está aproximadamente 30cm x 50cm, para mais ou para menos, mais a moldura larga necessária para comportar a peça toda, que tem cerca de 6cm de profundidade. Uma chapa de vidro/acrílico fechará a peça para evitar acúmulo de poeira na coisa.

An amazing theme commissioned last year, but only finished last month. A record in my portfolio this one: a +90 isolated elements in individual layers. You can check the smoke, the palmtrees, the cars pieces (even the windshield in crystal acetate) and suspended logo stand out in separate from the background. Vibrant colors and that retro soundtrack simply makes me travel back time.
Um tema incrível encomendado ano passado, mas somente finalizado esse mês que passou. Um recorde em meu portfólio: mais de 90 elementos separados em camadas individuais.
Você consegue perceber a fumaça, as palmeiras, as partes dos carros (até mesmo o parabrisa em acetato cristal) e logo suspenso se destacam em camadas distintas do plano de fundo.
Cores vibrantes e aquela trilha sonora retrô simplesmente me fazem viajar de volta no tempo.

Hi again, it has been 2 months without any major updates on here.
Pretty busy year and the orders just stacked up, making it impossible to keep up on Youtube.
This piece is my second EX model, which goes by 19.5 inches, not considering the picture frame. That commission took me two months of editing and the whole week to finish. Let's talk about ambitious projects...
I've already seen this amazing Hiro Isono's official artwork being turned into a shadow box, but never focusing on the most intricate, delicate pieces of composition to try to match the original painting. So I've decided to challenge myself with this.
The artwork, of course, was cropped. I would start making it on a widescreen picture frame, but the final proportion wouldn't seem good enough. Using the 3:4 aspect ratio would bring up black strips or forcing me to "fake/add" more background to fill the picture. It was a hard decision, but I am satisfied with that.
I took footage of parts of the production of this piece, but since it is meant for Xmas, I could not do more than this due to deadline being so close.
I hope you enjoy the final result as much as I enjoyed to recreate and assemble this beauty. Together with Yoshitaka Amano's Final Fantasy VI cover artwork, this one is one of the most amazing art pieces ever done in the video game, in my humble opinion, and I bet the gift will praise the new owner as much as I loved to create it.

Results. Everyone wants results. So there you have it.
The King of Fighters '98 Spain Stage. That's a real place, did you know that? It's a palace built by the moors. It's called Alhambra Palace and it resides in Granada.

Comics time!
This is Todd McFarlane artwork exclusively published by the International Museum of Cartoon Art, a rare poster from 1993.
I edited this artwork for a friend, Carlos Raphael from Megabox Dioramas 3D, but then I've decided to make my version of it, changing it slightly here and there, after I realized the original editing would'nt fit the picture frame proportions I got. In the end, it is a variant artwork edited with expanded walls and background to fit it in.
PS.: on a rush, I ended up repeating a timelapse section 4 times. My bad.
This is it for 2020, folks. Hope to see you all on 2021. Please be careful all of you.

Alright, this is a bit old (almost a month old actually). I simply forgot to post it on YouTube. This is the famous X-Men Annual #1 released in May, 1992 (yep, that's super old stuff) cover, by Jim Lee.
I was a comic books fan back then, especially X-Men titles. Was a collector for a while, but simply gave up after a few years collecting.
This piece took me A LOT of time to complete. Most of it because I had to redraw all the parts that didn't exist in the original art. You know, everything that overlaps on the lineart had to be redrawn, You can actually see how BAD Rogue's right led is redrawn by the way.
Other than that, the result is phenonemal. I enjoyed making it from start to finish. Plus the nostalgia.
