Though he started as a medical student and later majored in business and economics, art has always been his first priority and has been his full-time job for almost five years.Despite missing out on art school, he has worked as an art teacher himself, in addition to contributing art to an upcoming mobile game, drawing spooky webcomics, and other projects. He loves creating drawing comics for his characters and stories.Crate Details"The idea for 'Surviving in Monster City' is something that had been in the back of my head for a while," says Maximiliano. A recurring theme in his art is mixing human characters with monsters in a variety of scenarios: some friendly, some hostile. Amora, the girl in the piece, is one of Maximiliano's original characters, whom he has always imagined as being "battle-hardened," having to leave her ballerina days behind in order to focus on surviving among monsters. As for the baseball bat? Well, he thinks it's cool.The process video shows Maximiliano's usual methods and the way he normally works. It particularly shows how he colors both characters and backgrounds. "My characters usually have a lot of black and white, and my coloring (or how I pick colors) is something I get asked about from time to time," he shares. The background work, on the other hand, displays how he will work in different depth layers: starting with the foreground and characters, followed by the close background, and finally focusing on the details in the far-off distance.Though he doesn't use a large quantity of specific brushes, Maximiliano does have preferences with his own tweaks that he has been using for a long time. The line art brush setting shared in the crate may be familiar, but the second brush is one that has been tweaked. He finds it works very well for a sharp effect he likes to do, especially when coloring hair as in "Surviving in Monster City." For a better effect, he recommends frequently switching between both normal and eraser mode.Check out the December Creative Crate!

I've been featured on DeviantArt as December's CoreLounge artist..! Meaning...

Besides being a huge honor, deviants with a core membership can access already to the "crate" with goods regarding this piece, raw PSD, high res file, video process, some brushes, etc!
Also a little about me, hehe.

Also next tuesday (Dec 15th) will be the "premiere" of the process video on YouTube where I'll be tagging along and chatting and answering questions, I'll be sharing the link later when the day comes, this is also for Core deviant members !
