Description A 3D Studio Max render of a Poser character. Straight render, unretouched.

A friend of mine brought to my attention that I've never submitted any deviation to ~mexicanos and I realized that she's right. I wanted to deliver a very stylish graphic using the colors of the Mexican flag as a main motif, with some inspiration from the work of some Mexican muralists from the early 20th century. I hope you'll enjoy it, regardless of your nationality.

I feel that a common feature that every Mexican share, is the pride we have to carry on the values and morals from our ancestors. We have thousands of years of history and a very particular point of view to approach this world, and this age. No matter what language we talk everyday (Spanish isn't the only language spoken here... and we don't speak Mexican), or the country were we live, we're proud of our heritage. And Mexico isn't just Mexico City, San Miguel de Allende or the many beaches on our coasts... I still hate people who thinks about this country as a place where we ride on horses, carry side guns or sleep at noon. We're not perfect... but then again, who is?.

Dedicated with my admiration to my fellow Mexicans at DeviantART.

You defenately have a nice sense of posture. I also like the smoothness that generally lacks in renders, making them look unnecessary digital. Good job!

The things you said are very true, I hate when people stereotype mexican culture and people, that's why I have to say: VIVA MEXICO CABRONES!!!!

That's incredibly beautiful. I will +fav this and take a look through your gallery. Not much I can say that hasn't already been said, but yes, it's very true...pride is everything.

"You gotta know where you came from, mijo..." as cliche as it is, my uncles always told me that when I was little.

Again, very beautiful, indeed.

I'm so glad that you agree with me, Guillermo. It's one single thing we all can share, and that you can take inside of you wherever you are. Thanks.

That's a very beautiful way to put it. No problem, sorry I couldn't take the time to look through your gallery. My computer was acting up after I fav'ed the deviation. (I am in school at my Vo-tech class right now) I will try to take the time later today when I get access to my computer.

Again, much appreciation for your work.

This is really hot, but you shoulda taken out the purple sig in the picture. It doesn't really go with everything else, and everything else is really nice and dark with more brownish colors. Just doesn't contrast well.
Nice work,
Lestat

Oh, I know. I do try to make the watermark stand because last time I posted a graphic without it, a company began selling T-shirts with my graphics on it.

Thanks.
