HANDSOME CRIMINAL OR THE MAKING OF A NEW "TOY" MODEL

No, it's not about concerning to hot-looking serial killers... yet, but I was with the idea of making a Palanca Toy from the very beginning I adopted the artist's name "Palanca". First it was the cutouts, then I wanted some latex toys I never performed. Accidentaly later, I found a cheaper but more delicate way of working like the mattress foam, and lately I was only thinking some less risky material since I could be allergic to foam (specially when I'm trimming it!). I want to work on sewing pattern design... but for making toys only! That's why I'm trying to figure it out with the measurements and geometry... boy, it's a science! The human face itself is some sort of complicated architecture... I need help, can someone like craftworkers, toymakers, cloth pattern makers (tailors?) please contact me? palanca_feet@yahoo.com I'll really appreciate your help!

Jay Bone's Blond Fuzzy Hood now on cardboard!

(to see a BETTER VIEW, please OPEN IMAGE IN A NEW WINDOW!)

Some months ago I felt inspired by a drawing from -known artist Jay Bone. His style is focused on cartoon characters created by himself, and I love the dynamics in ruff sketches in cartoons. He and I don't use to draw blond guys, but the one that inspired him (one blond guy from real life) also indirectly inspired me! He captured the essential appeal in a man that I didn't want to modify that much, I only added the details I use to add and also added him legs and bare feet, of course! Jay's sketches and colourful finished drawings are always a celebration:

A Jay Bone Classic Needs to be Honoured with a Palanca Version!!!

Some days ago I found an amazing drawing made by artist Jay Bone, of a handsome blond guy wearing an open hood showing his furry chest. I was so impacted that I felt the need to work on my own version of this. I almost do him exactly as the original, only I added him legs and feet. Hope Jay don't get mad at me for doing this, I put his credits in my sign, so I'm not stealing his work. This is only a computer coloured sample. I need to work on a truly coloured piece, after leaving all that stuff I have pendant. Cheers to all talented artists like Jay Bone, his blogsite is http://bonesmen.blogspot.com

AIDS CAMPAIGN: USE YOUR HEAD

I finally finished the 2nd Poster. The last one and this one both are large sized. I never worked on those sizes and I find it really stimulating to work by moving my whole arms the way I did in the very remote past, when I was attending at some drawing workshop around 1990-1991. Do you remember Opus III? I listened to "It's a Fine Day" while working on this drawing. I should do the same with the rest of my pending work. Also I will exhibit this and the other canvas in an hour. Everything for the AIDS Day...

FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS... AIDS/HIV CAMPAIGN

This is my first attempt of an HIV/AIDS poster, tomorrow this canvas, with many other canvases will be taken to Parque de la Exposicion. There will be a sort of demonstration... I wanted it to be in the main square because that's where the Cathedral is and also the homophobic archbishop (even he looks like a repressed drag) but anyways, this will be another challenge for me by confronting my views with people.

ROADHEAD DAVE

Here is my last drawing, a sexy, handsome masculine canadian man who is a flickr user and I wanted to make him a drawing from a long time ago. So I finally made my first attempt. Also I never told him I was working on a drawing for him. So I hope he likes it, and if not, I am ready for his observations to have an improved work next time.

HAPPY STUFFSGIVIN' TO YOU!!!

As I said on FB, better late than never... I am thinking on working on a coloured version of this for the one who wants the original... I am doing my little space of time to not thinking about laboratory and get connected to the world... thank you for all your preference!!!

STEVE JOBS

So I finally draw him - Sadly I waited until his death to do it. THe entire world is thankful with him. He made history. He made people's life better. His popularity strangely increased the thinner he's got. People even made a doll of him. I confess I got a crush on him, if you doubt it, just see some of my other drawings. Well, thank you Steve, you left legacy.

MY CANADIAN MOUNTED COP FANTASY...

Bringing back memories about my childhood fantasies, it came to my mind that I was fascinated with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Men. How did it come? In many ways: maybe an Illustrated Atlas (I was a true World Atlas fan) where those guys were featured, also I remember some Disney/Uncle Scrooge's comic books when sometime he or Donald met those guys or in some way they dealt with them for some reason. Everytime I found those guys with that peculiar hat, red and black uniform so sexy that I mentally jerked off by thinking of getting myself lost in the woods and being saved by a man like this and riding a horse. And that was of course far long from knowing about Tom's uniformed men. Another fantasy I've had is with the Foreign Legion soldiers from the Saharian Desert. I think they were french, but not sure, they wore a beige uniform with a white cap with a piece of fabric/handkerchief to protect the neck from the sunrays. It will be my next drawing...

TWO YEARS WITH THE PILLS

I did this drawing today, because my Med Center told me to come with a little present, so I printed two coffee mugs with this drawing. I was thinking about working on a drawing related to pills from some time ago, so I thought it was the right moment to do that. Anyways, there will be a Pride Party this Thursday 30th. I gave the presents today, hope the guys would appreciate it.

BIG LOVE BOOK FINALLY ARRIVED!!!

Bruno Gmünder from Berlin contacted me requesting some of my artwork to be part of his BEAR ILLUSTRATED book called BIG LOVE. I however had just few drawings featuring the bear-type guys, but I could help by showing him the hairy type of men I am used to work on. So I knew about many bear art publications and I am thanked and honoured to belong to one of them. In some way I may help to describe the vision of the book, I'd like to transcribe some lines from it: "This book shows "bears" from their best sides: having fun, enjoying life, loving to live and to party to the fullest. BIG LOVE is an hommage to the men that have helped making the gay scene colorful again". You can get the book via amazon.com worldwide. Further information about this book, please go to http://www.brunogmuender.com or http://www.bears-illustrated.com

POLL: HOW DO YOU LIKE MEN? (POLL FIXED!!!)

WITH MULTIPLE OPTIONS THIS TIME... SORRY FOR MY MISTAKE - THANKS FOR YOUR VOTES, KEEP VOTING... EXTRA-BODY HAIR IS WINNING!!!



TEN MOST VOTED SUBJECTS IN MEN:


293 LIKES CAUCASIAN MEN (I FORGOT TO PUT MIDDLE-EAST/ARAB GUYS, THEY SEEM TO BE MY FAVORITE)

269 LIKES MEN OVER 30... I LIKE MEN OF ALL AGES, BUT MATURENESS, EXPERIENCE EVEN IN YOUNGER MEN IS REALLY HOT FOR ME

267 LIKES DARK BROWN TO BLACK HAIR. MY PREFERENCE IS LIGHT BROWN TO DARK BROWN. REDHEADS HOWEVER, SEEM TO BE VERY VERY HOT

266 PREFER BIG BULGES/PACKAGES. I START GUESSING MY VOTERS ARE MOSTLY BOTTOMS, WHICH IS OKAY FOR ME BECAUSE I'D RATHER VOTE FOR BIG HOLES INSTEAD

256 PREFER TALL MEN. I AGREE THAT JUST BECASUE OF THE SUPPOSED BIG FEET I MIGHT FIND IN THEM. HOWEVER, SHORTER GUYS ARE BETTER LOVERS AND HAVE MORE CHANCES FOR AN OUTSTANDING DEVELOPMENT IN BED

250 LIKES FACIAL HAIR, BEING BEARD OR STUBBLE. I ABSOLUTELY AGREE, BUT THIS IS DUE THAT IN MY COUNTRY IS AN EXOTIC ITEM. MEN IN MY LAND HARDLY GREW FACIAL HAIR. BUT THIS IS NOT A FACT TO DECIDE IF I WANNA GET A STRONG FACIAL HAIR LOVER, BECAUSE THE THING THAT REALLY MATTERS ME IS THAT HE'D BE THE BEST KISSER, EVEN IF HE'S A SMOOTH FACED NEIGHBOR

220 LIKES LATINO/HISPANIC MEN. IN MY COUNTRY TELLING THAT SOMEONE IS LATINO OR HISPANIC IS TRULY GENERIC AND MORE INTERNATIONAL THAN LOCAL, BECAUSE RICKY MARTIN IS LATINO THE SAME WAY AS A MESTIZO OR NATIVE AMERICAN OR "GUERO" IS, TOO. THE TYPE GAMMA IS HUGE IN EACH LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRY.

219 LOVES EXTRA BODY HAIR. THAT TURNS ME ON LIKE A BOMB. IT IS ALSO AN EXOTIC ITEM IN MY COUNTRY

211 SAY THEY RATHER LIKE JUST FEW CORPORAL HAIR, ALTHOUGHT NO COMPLETELY SMOOTH, LAIKE MANY YOUNG MEN BETWEEN 18 AND 22

205 SAY THEY LOVE HIGH-ARCHED FEET. MY THING IN FEET IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE MOST OF THE FOOT FELLAS. THEY LOOK FOR A MASTER AND THEY BEING SLAVES. MY CASE IS THE OPPOSITE: I LIKE FEET BECAUSE IT'S LIKE A MAN'S WEAKNESS (I.E. HE GOES TO THE WAR OR ENDS A SOCCER MATCH AND IS VERY TIRED, HIS BARE FEET/SOLES DEPICTS THE VULNERABILITY OF MEN WHEN THEY'RE IN A BREAK

THE ROAD CONE PLUGIN' GUY... FINALLY COLOURED!!!

WORKING WITH STRAIGHT LINES (for a T-SHIRT)

A friend of mine wants me and him to work on some t-shirt designs. He already printed one of my drawings on a black shirt, and it doesn't look bad, but I was thinking in a bigger design, maybe a face or face and a foot, or maybe just a foot and the PALANCA brand name together. So I started to play with the mouse, maybe it doesn't have rich lines like the ones I achieve with the pencil, but the results seem kinda interesting. I gotta try both ways, I guess...

PELUQUITA (Bushy or "Wiggy")

I was in a pool yesterday, it is really crowded the most of the times. It's located in a slum part of the town, and many young guys join the place, since they would stay in that pool and enjoy water with their comrades rather than taking their girlfriends to the beach, which is relatively expensive. Some guys are really hot, but they are mostly a bit into drugs or vandalism. But I found this attractive, tall young and abs-marked guy with this particular bushy hair who

came with two guys much less in shape than him. He however, wasn't arrogant, even he seemed to be the "silly guy" from the three. For the two short, slightly ugly boys, he might be like their "girl". I couldn't resist to start a conversation with him. We dive together and he's fast, so I prophetized him to be a new Michael Phelps only if he proposed it for himself. Of couse he looked at me a bit like I was talking shit, but I am glad I left a little seed in his mind. He has a great body and he will be an athlete if he gets with the right people. It would be sad if he join, only to compare himself with other guys with great bodies too, but hangin' out with drugs.

SANTA NEEDS SOME CANDYBARS TOO...

Well, sorry for posting an old one, but anyways the spirit of the big gray-furry guy who invade our working places and homes should in a way be saluted. Merry Xmas to all of you fudgers!!!
