# About me
I´m a self-learner modeller since 21. I started with drawings, copying from comic magazines such as Fierro, Zona 84, etc. I always loved character designs, so I based my creations in Chichoni, Altuna, Segrelles, Moebius, Gimenez and Bilal´s works, amongst many others. But I reached to a point where drawings didn`t allow me to do what I had in mind. That`s when I started modelling with epoxy clay. The first pieces were based in designs of my own. This serie of 8 figures was sold in a comic book store called Entelequia, between 1990/1991. At the same time I was doing these figures, and thanks to my friend Gustavo Melella, I got a job in FX for 2 years. In 1992 I decided to go on working by myself, modelling comic figures. This gave me the chance of showing my pieces to others. But, unfortunately, the local market was too small for making a living. In 1995 I made a contact with a toy company (Joc S.A.)and soon I started working as a freelancer for them, and at the same time I kept working on my figures. I also did many pieces for licences such as Disney and Warner Brothers. With time, the number of customers augmented, adding a new way of earning money: publicity (Agulla y Bacetti, Grey Argentina, Savaglio TVWA, Hermida y Asoc., etc). Nowadays, this is my principal source of income, although I keep going on with the collectable figures modelling, trying to make my own versions of comic classics. Also, I experimented with figures animation along Alejandro Fasce. Together, we made the models for "Fallas", a musical video for Todos tus Muertos, directed by Alejandra Crespo. Other works where I took part, amongst many others, include the models and the animation for Irish Coffee, a TV serie based in the comic of Trillo-Meglia, directed by Alberto Fasce. A cable control model of a beetle (Durito), with Alejandra Jorquera, Hernan Azcarate and Alejandro Fasce for the video "Dignidad Rebelde" of Javier Calamaro, directed by Diego Kaplan. Toward the end of 1996 was born Gore Group, a team of freelance artists from Argentina, created by myself. We've been in the Argentinian market working under licenses such as Disney, Warner Bros. and Universal, just to mention a few. A couple of years ago we had the chance to show our stuff to some important collectable companies in the USA, but God knows why we had to wait almost three years until Sideshow gave us a project to work on. In the meantime, we made a living sculpting collectable figures, busts, dioramas and everything related to comics, anime, horror, sci-fi and fantasy for others. Truth is we started working for USA companies not long ago, but we already had the opportunity to work with very important licenses.Current Residence: Argentina

Leí yu DeviantID, es una insipiración a retomar lo que dejé hace muchos años y perseguir mi sueño de trabajar esculpiendo, tendré que hacerlo por las noches ya que mi trabajo "normal" no me da tiempo para más, pero espero con perseverancia pronto poder dedicarme de tiempo completo en tan maravilloso trabajo, gracias por la inspiración nuevamente y saludos, esculpes de madres (no sé como sea esa expresión en Argentina jeje)

Hola Martin no me canso de ver tus laburos son espectaculares, fui a rosario gracias por los consejos y la buena onda, buenisima la charla, te queria preguntar por la cera que comentaste que un ex alumno estaba haciendo, ¿no sabes si la vende o como puedo contactar con el? estoy haciendo una figura de batman y otra de martian manhunter y tienen unos errores medio groseros je, y como ya estan cocinados queria ver si los puedo arreglar a partir de un modelo de cera.
Saludos che y gracias.

Es increíble tener artistas de tu calibre en DA y poder seguiros los pasos de cerca.
La verdad es que tus tutoriales del Gore Group son unos de los primeros a los que tuve acceso sobre trabajo en arcillas poliméricas hace algunos años, y desde entonces he analizado tus esculturas con lupa amenudo. Tu conocimiento anatómico y tu capacidad para la composición son alucinantes, y con la ayuda de tus compañeros del Gore Group vuestros trabajos de equipo son de lo mejor que uno podría encontrar en el mercado a día de hoy.
Además quien es capaz de revelar sus secretos de trastienda sin recelo, pasa de ser un gran artista, a ser un MAESTRO.
Saludos desde el otro lado del charco.

Saludos Martin que grande eres hombre. me acuerdo que saliste en canal (á) hace un buen tiempo.
No se donde podria conseguir ese video quizas si puedes y si tienes el video lo subas a youtube, ya que seria un buen tutorial para los que nos gusta la escultura y el modelismo estatico tan como a ti.Gracias

Oh que copado que vos tambien estas aca en DA.
Yo soy NRG, el amigo dibujante de Alterton, que vive en Trelew igual que el(te acordas cuando
lo llamaste al estudio y yo estaba ahi? Eso fue muy grooso).
Che, hiperzarpados son tus laburos, cuando le mandaste a Adrian la imagen esa del guerrero calaverico me cai de ojete chabon!!
Eh si te copas, pasate por mi galeria (si Alter no te mostro ninguno de los que me escaneo)y fijate lo que hago, seria
re copado.
Un abrazo capo!!!
