Sketch Sixty II

Part two of my sketch commissions ^^, phew thats a lot...
121 characters in total so far and still going haha...

Hmm... No news for today... I need to get out of the house at some point haha...

Plans

Some sketches I drew last night... Maybe for future material? Who knows...

Chicken

Meh... I dunno where that title came from haha... I just cant think of any at the moment.

Maybe I want chicken... Hevent had anything decent today lol...

Anyway, yeah drew a pic again... Cause I was bored. Been watching HIMYM too! woop, im about 7 eps away from the ending!... Yeah, that's all for now.

Peace out!

Speed Painting

Eerm, yeah... Just messing about. Inspiration came from a show called 'So you think you can dance'. ^^

Rockery Rocks

So, I woke up this morning and I was going to make breakfast... So I made some porridge and then when I tried to take it upstairs to my room, I accidentally dropped it because I couldn't walk that far with a boiling hot porridge on my hand!

The damn bowl had to land on the carpet and break. Hell let me tell you that it is not a fun job cleaning it up! Its like cleaning someone's sick... And damn was it hard to take off... ha

Moving on, I made this picture today just to test out some rock painting... Man it was hard... But I got there in the end... I really suck at painting rocks... I need to get more reference >.>

Dusk till Dawn

I did it again! I mean worked from 9-7pm with out eating! I really have to stop that uh!

God damn it, too preoccupied by work XD

Nya.... my lil sis' got chicken pox! Good thing I had it already... phew, it wasnt a very good experience.

Anyway this pic was from one of the sketches I posted here before. I just thought I'd give it some color 8)

BIG EDIT: I fixed Samui in the background...
It just didn't look like her at all because I've been staring at the image for ages and it was really bothering me haha...

Legen.....

Dary! Haha been watching How I met you mother lately. The show's awesome! All the characters are well thought out and very cliché-ish haha. Barney's awesome too! haha.

Hmm... What to say? Heard of David Choi? I was just looking at you tube videos and kind of lead on to him... He's a musician. Amazing acoustics! So I downloaded his album. All the tracks are EXCELLENT! But yeah, thats my highlight of the day haha. I wish to do something more exciting soon... Been working everyday XD...

Anyway, this picture... It's a group shot of the main characters from a manga magazine called Shonen Jump. Yep, world's leading manga mag :)

Dying

Sooooo tired, been doing work pretty much everyday.... But yeah... Worth it I guess... Felt so hungry after working none stop from 12 - 6 pm nyaks...

Anyway, yeah this is a commission work that I've just finished. I think im gonna get RSI... really need to rest my hand haha...

That's all for now.

Bees

Yeah... Been listening to a lot of Korean pop lately... Some of their songs are really annoyingly addictive to listen to... Haha.

Kinda like when my sister was trying to make me listen to Lady Gaga... hated her so much at first, but that damn po-po-po-poker face really got in to my head after she played it a few times ><...

Anyway, what to say, oh yeah, watched Bruno lol.
That film is only good to watch once, I watched it again with my sister today and it wasn't as funny...
Apparently they cut out loads of bits from it, it was orginally a 15, but now an 18 film... It was really short too, about 1 hour and a bit [a half maybe]?

But yeah, I've been doing commissions as usual, but what's sad was that I was playing Tekken 5 till sunrise one night... Uh! I was just fiddling with my PS2 and looking for games and I thought mmm Tekken, havent played that in a while, gah! totally forgot the buttons lol...

By the way, this image was inpired by a video I watched recently, some Korean singers called 2PM had these funky costumes, so I thought they'd look cool drawn. Ended up looking like the Beetles lol. But yeah, some music inspiration lately. Speaking of music, Boom Boom Satellites are my new easy tune! Weee!

Batman

Nananananananananananananana BATMAN!
I really need to do some soft shades XD... been too reliant on cell shading 8S...

Enjoys!

PS: Dark Knight the film was over rated... No offence to lovers haha...

Featured!

Well, nothing new to update... But I've got news for ya!

The other day, I registered on another online portfolio website called Behance Network. It's mainly for illustration work or graphics, but a friend of mine told me to make an account there. He's a professional illustrator and he said that there are a lot of serious workers on that website.

To my luck, after posting some pictures up last night, I got an email from one of the editors of Advance Photoshop Magazine. If any of you are familiar with that magazine at all? It's a hi-end magazine specially made for photoshoppers and digital painters around the globe. It featured very skilled artist such as Stanley Lau, famous for his character creation of Pepper, and founder of the studio; Imaginary Friends.

But yeah, quite a fruitful few days because my fortune cookie said thesame thing... Weird huh? Yes, I went to a chinese restaurant for a meal haha. So yeah, watch out for the magazine. It's going to feature a few works from me ^^, I think its going to be on the September issue.

Another news is that I got my grades, and better yet, remember the poster I made for the third year's film? They are now currently using it to promote the animation course haha. It's now the new badge.

What else... Oh yeah, I started to fiddle with my computer and now I'm trying to upgrade it... Too bad my motherboard is a bit old but yeah, been upgrading it to run smoother on heavy programs like photoshop and such.

Here are some techy speckies:

4GB RAM
2.8 Dual Core CPU
9800 GT Graphics card
1.4 TB HDD

I think that's all you need to know really ^^' but yeah, its running smoothly now. My friend's encouragine me to install games on it but I refuse! Its weird but I dont like playing games on a PC... But thats just me.

I'll try and post more pics up, but yeah, that's all the news for now. Also created a temporary online porfolio. Go check it out! ^^

Oldie Moldy

Yeah, some old sketches... nothing much ^^' I think I posted that first one before, but took it down... I changed some bits that's why 8)

Doodles

These ones are some sketches on location again... The first few are from a dream I had... Weird, but when I was in this room, it looked so nice. So I just had to sketch it out before I completely lose it... As they say, some of the best storie's comes from you dream, so jot it down as soon as you wake up otherwise they'll disappear forever... For some reason I'm one of those people who has a dream but as soon as they wake up, I completely forget what I just dreamed about... Anyway, here they are ^^

Scanner!!!!

Yeaaaaaaaah! I finally got my scanner to work. I had to get my computer back from Bournemouth though, which was a pain to carry on the train 8(...

But yeah, finally got it all set up, and I can post more crappage here! Woop!

Alright, got tons of sketches, let's start off with these ones, they're sketches I drew when I was planning out my entry picture for the Darkstalkers competition, held by UDON crew.

Bah

Maaaaaah... Lack of update recently... This is due to my damn scanner not working! Argh... I need to get my computer from Bournemouth so I could do more work!

But yeah, here's something I drew on the computer... Slow ass laptop keeps freezing everytime I use photoshop ><.

It was my birthday 3 days ago, so I'm 20 now... Dang... Can't use those teenage excuses anymore! :P I feel so old! Shoutout to those who came, and who sent me presents! Holly, your present was the best! Very random indeed! haha.

Well, that's all for now. I'm going back to Bournemouth to get my computer on friday. Hopefully I could post more material then.

More CG

First of july already??? Hmm....

Errr, yeah just another coloring from a manga X_D...

I've got quite a lot of sketches, but I have no access to a scanner... Need to move the one downstairs to my room 8_D

EDIT: God Damn mother--.... Grrrr. My scanner is being a big shitter and decided not to work >< I have to use the one in Bournemouth now... so sketches and other work have to wait X_X....

Power Cut!

WAAAAAH!

Man, this took me ages... I was working on it this morning, and I wasn't saving anything... 3 hours later, and still working on it, the electricity died because our meter ran out! I was so pissed off because I did not hit the save button once! and I was almost complete as well ><...
But yeah, had to start from scratch and color it again... Pretty pleased with how it came out though ^^, Yeah, characters are from Naruto.

On the other hand, I went to London the other day traveling from Birmingham. Damn It was the hottest day of the week, and guess what, all the damn coaches' air cons were broken! It was like a sauna in that bus! The trip was a lot of fun though. It was quite an eventful 3 days.

Anyway, that's all for now. Time to resume the sketch commissions!
