Have a great day!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Old character design - I can never get the face right...

Back to Blogging

And here's the post my current work.  Have a good day!

Sketches and "The Past Presents the Future"

Sketch 1

On the right is just something that I did for an entertainment: a concept of Belle from Beauty and the Best. It didn't come out the way I wanted...

Sketch 2

On the right: Belle portrait?  

"The Past Presents the Future"

This wasn't in the sketchbook: I did this as a mini-illustration project.  Since I got use to the ink, it was a little easier to use on this work.

End of Summer Term -The Aftermath-

My final ended few weeks ago, but I have been doing lots of work since then.

This the eighth prop that I've been working on just few days ago. It's not done yet since I need to do more outlining on the others.

Something that I had been practicing lately in my sketchbook.

Well, that's about it. I have lots of work to do, but I'll be posting more later.

Almost Done with Summer Term

Something that I had working on for the past few weeks.

More work will be coming soon.

Speed Paint - FFVII: Tifa Lockhart

I haven't drew her for years.

Valto Spilia -WIP-

"Where trees despise the sun in the sky..."

The Street

Back to Photoshop again.

Secret

And it is done.

Not quite, I should say. After painting this for more than 10 hours, Corel Painter had been slowing down. It was also slow when I tried to push Command+z, which took more than 1 minute to undo each part of the work. Later, Corel Painter literally crashed 4 times, causing my work to be unsaved, which I had to redo everything over again.

I shouldn't that this work was easy for me: it's far more difficult due to art block and the colors, especially the lighting and so forth.

Nonetheless, this work was meant to have an urban-feel. It was inspired by the Japanese graffiti over at the Udagawa District in Japan. A similar work of graffiti can also be found in the game, The World Ends with You.

Headache... Need Tylenol

Still in progress.... I don't think this will be done until next week.

Project 2 -WIP-

Who likes pop culture?

My Studio

Although I take photos with my digital camera, it's rare for me to post it on public than just private.

My studio. Strangely, people still refer to this as an artroom.

Oil Pastel.

I didn't think that this came out good. The quality in this photo is just perfect, which is rare for my digital camera to do.

The true quality of the my lame camera. Oh and for your information, I also oil paint as well.

Feet project. Done it in oil pastel (in the second picture).

Not only that I use oil but I use acrylics as well.

Speed Paint

Corel Painter.

She'll definitely return to the project, RD: LLL.

I kind of wish that people would stop calling her "evil," even though she is actually the main character for the project.

Twilight Sea

Done and done.

References from Google image were used in this work. It's impossible for an artist like me to just draw directly from my head.

Well...

Landscape Project 1

I think I might redo this later. The lighting and clouds looks a little off.

Well, off to work.

Here and Done

Hello blogspot (or blogger), I'm back. I've been gone for a while, haven't I?

This is just some preview I've done for 3D Modeling class. It surprised people, as I never had experience in Maya in my life.

I also did a logo animation for a company, but I won't post it here due to copyrighted music. It's not something of what I intended to do for a company--it's a class project, that's all. Maybe I might post a sample of a logo animation some other time... If I can find it in my other computer, haha!

Zzzz...

Due to my sleepiness, my writing will have to come out crappy.

After fourth weeks of school, I have never felt this tired. I almost fell asleep few times during class, and I sometime doze off when other people are talking. Quite embarrassing, but hopefully I'll get a full rest by tonight before class tomorrow.



Part of my class project. It was something about "looking at the master's drawing, copy its background, and replacing one thing to one of your own." I don't know, maybe I didn't pay attention earlier of what my teacher have said.

For your information, this work came out too bright, but I'll darken this work soon as this is just a layout.

Not Much...

I don't know if the newsroom will publish this in a college magazine... But meh, it's up to the editor to decide.

Anyway, about the artwork... I kind of went back to my old CG style in Photoshop; although, I did something new to the top layer of the channel.

No "blur" effect has been added (I don't know why I kept using it last year). =)

Not Much In The Summer

Some random sketch that I did today.
