    I like how you draw people. The last comic is really interesing, too. Can you explain why the animal-people are there, though?

    Thank you all for your words.

    @NakedZergling
    That's the oldest stuff, previous millennium work. :P

    @CountBlackula
    That one's tricky, I didn't write the story, but here goes:
    In Rousseau's Social Contract he mentions the part of Homer's Odyssey where the Cyclops eats the greeks and he makes a paralel where we are like cattle waiting to be eating by the Cyclops.
    So, in that page, everyone is cattle mindlessly waiting to be eaten by the imaginary Cyclops, except of course the 2 main characters.

    Hope that was clear, also English is not my first language so forgive my spelling. :P

    I wont comment on every single one of these, but they are definitely of an overall excellent quality, so I hope you stick around and post more update.

    The first one captured my attention, its a nice sketch though the thick border outlines seem to detract rather than add.

    Second one has a really nice composition.

    Third one blows my mind. Great colors, you define shapes very well without lines.

    I see you're from Portugal, I hope to travel there at least once, so I can see the motherland.

    Those were great pictures. You've got talent man. Kudos to you. :)

    I particularly like the third drawing and and the comic trips. I like the blend of color on the third one and sharpness of images on the comic strip stands out. :)

    Not bad, new guy... not bad at all....

    #4 and the zombie cab driver are my favorites, even though the cabbie is reminiscent of Death and Taxis.

    Not sure if it's a zombie... I've seen plenty of cab drivers that look like that in Lisbon.

    Again, thank you for the kind words. :)

    @Moly: I guess I went for the "classic" middle and ring finger together look but might have screwed it up a bit.

    @Earthwormadam: You should. ;)

    @Paradise/Aim: It is a zombie, tho I wasn't familiar with that movie (google showed me it's a movie). It's part of a set of 3 illustrations that were made to promote a horror film festival here in Lisbon. Here are the other two, a barber and a "fado" singer:

    Enjoy.
