Chess’ Lore Series

I had this idea from a long time of doing chess pieces as characters. I did those as the white pieces… I really want to come back to this concept and do the Black pieces one day. Scroll down to see them all and read the explanations!

 

He’s a mischievous man, full of secrets and dogmas. Can be seen walking on the shadows of the castle, conspiring against the King’s enemies.
He’s a good king. His realm loves and protects him, wishing him a long life; which he had.
Has been knighted very young, and following his King is all he knows. Is a wise and seasoned rider and fighter, stomping over his enemies for his kingdom.
He’s a simple worker. But this is an united kingdom, and every able fighter is required when war comes. The young pawn will fight proudly for his king.
Some say the king’s longevity is her doing. If the kingdom is in distress, this is the one person the enemies should fear.
The king’s strongest and last resort. This man is like a wall, and is willing to give his life for his king.

Nossa Senhora do Chuveiro Elétrico/Bicicletinha

This is a very brazillian joke, which is explained bellow. If you like this art, it can be bought in posters, t-shirts, mugs and more on Colab55 (for brazillian shippment) or Redbubble and InPrnt (for international Shippment).

Ok, here’s the english explanation:

In Brazil, culturally, we tend to “ask” for “our Lady” (Nossa senhora) as in Jesus mother, Mary. This “our lady” normally comes with a place where there is some history about Mary, as in where people claim she appeared, or where a small statue of here appeared (this was the case of a city called “Aparecida”, which translates directly to “appeared”, I kid you not), so the whole saying goes “Our Lady of Aparecida” or “Our Lady of Guadalupe”. You know the drill. Then the thing you want to ask, like “Our Lady of Aparecida, give me hope”.

So this is an ongoing joke where we call for “Our lady of the tinniest bike, give me equilibrium” and “Our lady of the eletric Shower, give me resistence”.

The thing is: the resistor that goes on a shower head, here in Brazil is called “resistência”, which is the same word for “resistence”.

See?

Cooper

Back in 2017, I did this comic magazine for Cooper Supermarket. The idea was to explain how the cooperative system works for the supermarket in a ludic maner. With this briefing, I created a family that is moving to the city and finds out about the supermarket. The magazine was distributed to clients back then.

Saint Seya Revisited

“Saint Seya” was a really popular anime back in the 90’s in Brazil. I was a huge fan! This here is a “reimagined” version I did of the main cast, and published originally on Instagram. I did a small text for each one of them explaining how they would be nowadays, together with the illustrations. It was hal the fun!

Shiryu of the Dragon is the most serious and polite of all Athena’s saints. I picture him always very well dressed, in skinny suits and narrow ties. I always hated those bangs, I mean, he never cuts is hair, but don’t touch my bangs? So, in my vision, he’d have long full hair, just with a small part tied up to avoid falling in his face. In my mind, he’s bi, and demi. Shun, of Andromeda. 100% hipster. 120% magical boy. Would wear hyped, on brand clothes, and always a smile on his face. Is a volunteer in a NGO that rescues street kittens and finds home for them to be happy and loved. That June, who was supposed to be his “””girlfriend””” would be his BFF, going with him shopping. Would remain the same Shun that despises violence, crazy ass dangerous gal if someone important to him is in danger. Has a huge crush on Hyoga. Hiyoga, of the Swan, comes from Siberia. I though he’d use thhose montain outfits, that we find on Decathlon, made for extreme cold weather. With an Elsa vibe (the cold never bother me anyway), he’d even use apropriated clothes, but not really, cuz, I mean, it’s Hiyoga. He wouldn’t care much about his appearence, so the long hair and beard would come up and he wouldn’t notice. Man of few words and skin ruined by the weather, looks a lot older then he really is. Hiyoga is Ace, and has mommy issues.
Ikki, of the Phoenix. The troublemaker. Machoman, rude, agressive, dirty mouth. HArdly smiles, unless is of his enemies despair. I think he’d use sportwear, mostly, oversized and comfortable – and fuck it color harmony, those are my favorite pants, I’ll wear it with whatever I want. Started doing an undercut in his hair, until it escalated to a mowhawk – that he cultivates mostly to annoy people. Ikki is so stright you can use him as a ruler, but fortunatelly not toxic: he’s kinda bad but loves very much his lil brother, respects women and carries drunk friends home, for safety. Seya, of Pegasus. The tomboy, always smiling and doing dad jokes, kinda like boys from Rio de Janeiro. Wears whatever is on sale, but doesn’t go very far from shorts and t-shirts. He’s so slicky that when they faced the 12 zodiac houses, he defeated a couple of them just by talking. Straight haircut (there’s no mullet on my alternative universe) and hangloose, he think’s he’s so fly, but he’s just… not. Saori Kiddo, Athena Goddess. She’s a really rich and spoiled child. She’d be one of those really cool imigrants living in London, vegan, wearing Dr. Martens’ boots and second handed clothes (of expensive brands). Usually seen in oversized coats that could fit at least three of her inside (don’t ask me, I think it’s some kind of tendency, all the asiatic girls I see around are wearing it) and hurry walking holding her golden/champagne smartphone in her impecably manicurated hands. In spite of her bored looks and bossying around, deep down has a really good heart. She’s straight, but would give anything not to be and get over her crush on Seya.
