Hey Hector. Just a short biography, please.
I’ve always stood out from the majority here, just as anyone who has individual thoughts in this tiny, narrow-minded city. My hobbies and taste in music, movies, etc has always set me aside, and probably the fact that I’m a humanoid lizardlike creature has contributed to that in a degree as well. Still, I’m probably just a big fish in a small tank. And what is the history behind the „Taking the bus“ design?
I think arriving late somewhere because of public transportation is something almost everyone can relate to, public transportation here sucks so I‘m definetly familiar with it. One day the idea of a giant character having the same issue with a regular-sized bus came to my mind, so started sketching and later turned into this.
Where are you now located? Tell us about your current business and projects.
I a small city in Mexico, no need to name it cause no one knows it anyway. I recently finished school and now I’m trying to get into freelancing, but I still have a long way to go. Well, what would you suggest to a newbie, who just starting his or her career as a designer?Well, I still consider myself sort of a newbie, but practice is always the best advice in my opinion, never put your pencil down. What do you think about communities these days?
If you mean online communities I think they can be great places for inspiration, interaction, improvement and procastrination; I’ve had my share of all of those in the year+ I’ve been memeber of a few of them. Do you work on Mac or PC? Why did you choose this platform?
PC, mainly for the cost, but I used Mac at school and there wasn’t a hhuge difference, considering what I do. Also, I love windows, it allows me to be lazy. Do you play videogames?
I love videogames, I play mostly old-school snes games, but I recently bought a Wii and I’ve been playing it a lot. What are your hobbies?
Drawing, playing guitar, videogames, reading and watching movies. What is THE place on earth you would like to visit?
I wouldn’t know of just one place, but I would love to visit Europe, get soaked in the different cultures, and visit lots of museums. How many hours do you work, and what is stress for you?
It varies a lot, considering I’m not working a regular job. Sometimes it can be from the moment I wake up to 14 hours later, sometimes just 2. Stress for me is working 8 hours doing something I hate just for money. Latest movie you liked?
Tideland. What’s your favorite sites? Why?
I’ve never been much of a websurfer, I used to use internet just to find music, but for a while now I’ve been visiting several t-shirts sites on a somewhat regular basis. Any plans for the future?
Drink some coke, go to bed and hopefully have a good idea for a design before I fall asleep.
