My little brother is getting married!

I'm cheating a bit with that statement, since I'm the oldest one of six... so technically they're all my little brothers and sisters, but what the hell, He's getting married!!


I designed and illustrated their wedding invitation, and it was actually super fun! I love them both so much, so at the beginning I thought it would be hard to turn them into a nice looking caricature... but they're both good-looking, so all I had to do is follow references and don't screw it up.

Tati is a chemist and my brother is a musician. Dirty Barry is with them also messing around... There are some minor details that I wanted to put in, such as the Gibson Les Paul, which is my favorite guitar model and is also the first electric guitar me and my brother held in our hands 'cause my dad owned one. It wasn't this color though (it was a cool looking black design with a white edge), I decided to change it for the illustration's sake.

The chord that Tati is making is also the essential chord for my band Renacimiento Mortuorio, my precarious metal band, and our singles "Demencia" and "Depresión" (without that chord the band would not exist). Why is this inside my brother's wedding invitation? Well, he and Tati are huge fans of my music (and they really shouldn't be), I played Depresión many times at the place they met, to the people surrounding the bonfire in Trailanqui, and also... I dunno, it made laugh!

The following drawings and sketches are some little surprises I put inside. 




 I will have some of my super best friends at the wedding party and some fun music, I'll be in Chile for a week and I don't know, it will be awesome!!!!!!! I'm just super super excited for everything =)

See you soon friends! Happy wedding dear Tati and Andrés!!!! This will be AWESOME!!!

Have a good one people of the world!!!
