Character Design
Characters of Mexico City
Mexico City is one of the largest in the world and it is growing each day. People from all parts of the country and the planet coexist, creating a very rich and complex culture. Every corner is filled with interesting human beings that give a very special look an vibe to this metropolis.

This is an attempt to portray this great city through the characters that live in it.  
Eng - A short square man gets into the subway. It's hot and crowded but he seems full of joy wearing a flower pattern tie. I guess he got used to the chaos of the city.

Esp - Un señorcito de baja estatura entra al metro. Aunque hace calor hay mucha gente se ve bastante feliz usando una corbata de flores. Supongo que se acostumbró al caos de la ciudad. (4:00pm /Metro Chabacano).
Eng - After a long day of work, he stops to eat some tacos. He's alone but enjoying every moment of it. (8:30pm)

Esp - Después de un largo día de trabajo, se detiene a comer unos tacos. Es la segunda vez que lo veo, y aunque está solo, parece que disfruta cada momento. ( 8:30pm / Col. Niños Héroes ).
Eng - A very happy gentleman playing the a typical ´organillo´ smiles at everyone that passes by. (2 pm)

Esp - Un señor muy amable toca el organillo y sonrie a todas las personas que pasan a su lado. (2pm / Palacio de Bellas Artes).
Eng - A humble man pushes his tricycle through the city, bringing his "mobile restaurant" to sell food near an office building.  (12 pm )

Esp - Un hombre humilde empuja su triciclo a travez de la ciudad para vender comida cerca de un edificio de oficinas. (12pm / Colonia Periodista)
