El Mecánico

Meticulous and mechanical. 

As children, my brothers and I were fascinated with Japanese animation shows that foretold stories of despair, retribution, and justice. Here, my brother, an IT Specialist, takes the opportunity to create these figures after many years have passed since childhood. Each piece must be cut with precision as each piece connects with another to form a head, arms, legs, body, and artillery. The box of a figure consists of an instructional manual in Japanese, water-based enamel stickers, and plastic pieces joined together as a whole, to be later cut out, to create the figure . Depending on the size of the figure, a total of 3 to 5 hours is needed to complete the figure.
