String mechanism toy / La calaca

I forgot to expose also this work but maybe is better because I cannot stop to explain what is the ''Dia de Muertos'' and the meaning of this toy to me. Also I don't want to be a taken as a fan of skulls and death. The spread was designed on an A4 paper size and also it pops of the envelope with the help of elastic bands. This one also moves the eyes and the jaw but is designed to hang from a cord. Well lets save it for the next review. Ni modos!.

Mechanism toy/ Macho



I decided to include in the review this paper toy that has a mechanism that works with elastic string and pops when you take out of the envelope. I have to make some changes because the some flaps are breaking (or I need a stronger glue).
Well meanwhile I miss going to the ''Lucha libre'' because I am really stressed of having to do a presentation of my works on my sesame street japanese and I want to yel to somebody. Wish me good luck, at least if they do not enjoy my works they will laugh at my pronunciation.

Safari map


He, he, he as always I love to end things on the dead line... like Indiana Jones. Here is the final illustration of the little map included on the safari book. My teacher asked to change the background but it was too late. Sorry.
