Despite being few, this is a design made for a Mexican hot sauce company. I really enjoyed doing the character designs, specially the little habanero pepper. In the end I didn't know if the company used these designs, but I liked the result, especially for the touch of typical Mexican clothing.
This month I wanted to do something more mexican related. As a Mexican, I must admit that I rarely do things related to my culture, that's why I decided this year to make an adaptation of Catrina for this Dia de Muertos. This Catrina is based on the original Catrina from José Guadalupe Posada.
Some ideas about gods of Mexican culture in Pinup style. I took their most common characteristics and humanized them in cute girls, for the background I took their descriptions as gods as a reference.
Pinup based on the God of Mexicas that symbolizes the perpetual struggle between the sun and the moon through the firmament as the solar god. Also known the God of Fire, war and human sacrifices.
Pinup based on the Aztec God Tlaloc. God of rain, being well known for its ability to dominate the water and provide the vital liquid or also called Earth Liquor that contributed to the growth of corn crops.

Vectorial mexican flag design. The logo is based on the history of pre-Hispanic Mexico when Tenochtitlan was founded, represented with an eagle devouring a snake on a cactus. Also the colors have meaning for this flag, GREEN as hope, WHITE as unity and RED as the blood of the fallen soldiers in the battle for independence.
