A walk by the beach..

Just a random image painted not long ago.. look kinda eerie huh.. anyhow painted it just for fun only.. just took and hour above to finish it.


The original color.. somehow there are some perspective problem here..


I like this one better.. Purple dress~!

My new wallpaper..

Hehehe.. this is my new wallpaper for the blog..


The most beautiful one I've made..

* Her Smoky Eyes *

It just came in my mind while I was watching archery (Olympic game). So, quickly sketch it out..


The sketch... an example of it..


The original version.. I always love the smoky eyes makeup.. so here it is.. Basically, I just wanted to focus on her closeup face and eyes makeup only.. but end up going over again..
It's difficult to paint especially nose and her body poses .. I've to cover up her body with some seaweed looking fabrics.. lol Still have many anatomy problems though..
Now then I realize liquify tool is sooo useful and powerful~!! I didn't know before~!!! (so dumb of me.)


Playing around with blending options.. This is the Demonic version.. Woo.. I just love her eyes so much..


The original color image is rather dull.. I'm not satisfiy with it.. So made several changes with blending options.


More fliter blendings..
The Final image.

Medium: HB mechanical pencil and ps.
Time taken: 72 hours above on and off.
Paper: Ordinary printing paper.
Reference: internet images..

- Vinny Oekaki -

Trying out the Okekaki Shi-Painter. It's fun though limited canvas size.. 300x300.. so small..
Just thought of drawing Vinny (Vincent Valentine) from FFVII.


Vincent Valentine aka Vinny.

The characters belongs to Square Enix and Tetsuya Nomura. Art by: me.

Yuffie and Vincent

Heh Heh.. It's my first Final Fantasy VII fanart~! I just luv this game very much and I really like to see these two come together.. ^-^ Yuffie Kisaragi (the hyperactive type) and Vincent Valentine (the cold and withdrawn type). They are far most my favourite couple pairing in FFVII. So here it is. Though it’s not the best..


Here is the primarily sketch.


This is the original color. Initially, I don't intend to draw any background.. Soon, I realize.. It looks so plain without any background.. On the other hand, I ran out of ideas for background.. Out of the blue, this image came into my mind~! ‘City of the Ancients aka Forgotten City’. Hence, I tried to paint it.. References: FFAC screenshots etcs.


After several blending options etcs.. Here is the final image that I prefer.

Medium: HB mechanical pencil, uni-ball Signo DX 0.38 and ps.
Time taken: ....
Paper: Ordinary printing paper.
Reference: internet, some screenshots I took from FFAC.

Random Design II

Another round of new crappy designs.. gather them together in one image..

Whew.. Finish packing my stuffs from one box to another.. My hands/arms are shaking.. Can't type properly.. lol.. There are still more things to pack… Mum brought 4 boxes, need to pack and clean up all the junks and get ready for the upgrading stuffs. (Don't know when is it.. but.. hope not so soon!! Plain Nightmares for us~!!!) Most of the old neighbors already moved out long ago~!! (We wanna move out too~! Lol. But it’s not easy to find good location these days.. so the thoughts is off..)

Have been bombard by noises from drilling, beeping and many others mechanical noises the WHOLE WEEK.. (Noise pollution.. whew.. ) There will more going on tomorrow.. It been constantly reminding us that upgrading is near.. (I’m feel so DEAD already..) It’s so stressful (mentally) hearing noises all around.. Woo… Well, there is nothing we can do.. haizz…. I wish I had ear plug…

~Swirly Again~

Last post for today.. Whoo.. post so many posts at once. Lol
Yup it's Swirly whatever Time~!

Here's a screenshot of Inkscape and some of my ridiculous (beansprout) designs.. lol



Made this tile design not long ago.. with the help of Inkscape and ps.



The second attempt of swirlys.. Dark purple shades obsessive maniac.. (that's me.)



I change the background color.. look more intense.. I like it.
Guess what bro says about this image.. He says it looks like Chingay designs.. (he always say that...)

It's Cheoro again~!

LOl, too obsessed with him.. Trying to draw him in animeish/manga style once more. Don't like the previous image I drew.. This time on drawing/sketch book!! (learn my lesson..) I really enjoy drawing him..


This is how it looks like.. I knew his shoulder is off.. but I thought perhap no need to change it.. don't wish to ruin the whole image.. After scanning the image, I decided to change his shoulder... I can't stand it..


I've to rub off some part and draw again.. add more tone to his clothes.. Still.. not good.. have to rub it off again.. $^T$*J&%*$@*# I'm so worried that, I might ruined it..


Third and final changes.. Still have many mistakes though.. but don't wanna change anymore.. Hmm.. Somehow.. His expression look kinda.. ehh.. ???

Medium: 2B mechanical pencil and pencil.
Time taken: 2-3 hours.
Paper: Drawing/sketch BooK.

Next time, I wanna draw Damdeok~! Until I find a nice image that is...

Cheoro II

Nothing to draw.. (art block..) So.. I sketch.. Cheoro.. in animeish style..
But it's not really good..


See.. This is how it looks like.. Horrible.. Especially his body.. bad anatomy.. Totally ruined the whole image.. Argggghhhhh.....

Swirly Swirly..

I've always wonder how those lovely swirlys graphics was done.. Now, I know.. With Illustrator of course.. plus plenty of imaginations (which I don't have and lack of..)

However, I found one interesting program and I got a little addict to it..
The program is called Inkscape. It's really a very good program. The first time when I open the program and tried to use it.. I was like: "Wah~! How to use arh?!! So many things don't know.. So clueless." Soon, I got the hang of it and got addicted to it.. Then, started to draw simple swirls.. which is really fun. With the help of Inkscape, I manage to make some nice simple swirls..

Made a wallpaper with it..


Play around with the colors.. Well, bro says it looks like in aquarium... lol

Random design...

This is so random.. (because I have a marker in my hand.. started to itch for drawing.) I've always been obsessive with tattoo designs.. It's so cool.. I just love to draw them on my characters or on fanarts... Only my design is not as good as the real tattoo design.. However, I still love the designs that I've made. Pure random and wild.


Dunno what is it.. Just go crazy with it..




Alphabet A and O..


Dragon/bird monster looking design... lol

The lungs got a little uncomfortable after inhaling too much marker scent.. ( I was lying on stomach the whole time while scribbling the last three designs.. Too near the marker.. )

Inu's sketch..

Again, using ArtRage program..



Random sketch.. Inuyasha sama..

Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi. Sketch by: me.

Random junk.

Yup, another random junk.. using ArtRage program again..



The sketch..


Color with OC..


Change the color with ps..

Color Motion..

Very random coloring.. Playing around with ArtRage program.. don't really know what I'm doing.. just color.. and color... blend in all colors..
This is what I came up with..


Crappy junk.. I name it: Color Motion.

*Chi*

The last time I drew Chi was so ugly and scary.. lol, Gotta draw it again. I redrew it again, with reference of course..

Somehow 'Chi's' name reminds me of Chobits who also have the same name Chi.. ehh..


Chi is lost.. Sob.. Sob..

Time taken: ehh... less than an hour..?...?
Medium: HB and 2B.
Paper: Lecture pad.
Reference: Images from Google.

Chi belong’s to Konami Kanata.

RanDom..

Just one random sketch..

Lookin' sorta awkward pose there..

Since the computer auto restart by itself few times already.. Also lack of space which I mention many times.. It's very laggy most of the time and crashes several time too.. Bro has no intention to reformat the com anytime soon... (-__-;) (Wonder if there are viruses or something else.. have to ask bro..) I'm worried that what if I was painting halfway through then suddenly restart without save.. I cannot imagine that...

Cheoro sketch

Not really satisfied with the previous drawing so I redrew one anime/manga style instead.. finish less than 20 min I assume. Much faster and easier.

:: Cheoro :: Lee Philip ::

Man.. this is the second time the computer actually auto restart by itself right in front of my eyes.. (O.o) Have to retype again..

Anyway, in 'Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi' drama, there is one Guardian which I'm sure female audiences really like/love (that includes me), the appearing of Cheoro (Cheong Ryong), the azure dragon (青龙) one of the four guardians.

Yup.. He's so mysterious and gorgeous in many ways. Cheoro always loves to stay in the forest by himself. Doesn’t speak much, bad at drinking wine. Always stay beside or near Sujini. (sweet.)

Here is a portrait of him that I drew traditionally.. Learnt a lesson that is NEVER EVER USED THIN PAPER or printing paper when drawing portrait!!! Too lazy to dig out my drawing paper from the box lah.. so this is what happened in the end.. paper ceased and almost torn when I applied too much force on it..


Doesn't even look like him, ehh.. Looks kinda ugly too.. TOT Still not good at drawing portraits.. Don't know how to draw hair and amour. Lots of mistakes (especially his eyes!) and I've to leave his eyes, nose, lip and some others parts untouched because the paper can no longer survived the torture of erasing or redo after several time.. Considering to draw another image of him.. This time with drawing paper..

Time taken: 4 hours at least..
Medium: HB, 2B, 4B and 6B.
Paper: printing paper..
Reference: Images from Google.
Music: Approval (许诺).


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Last but not least, some screenshot of Cheoro. Actor: Lee Philip.


This is Cheoro. Lee Philip. 帅帅地.


Damdeok, General Ko and Cheoro. So rare to see Cheoro smile.. 呀! 难得一见的笑容哦.

I sort of playing around with the blending filters..

Yeah... finish watching Tae Wang Sa Shin Gi (aka: The Legend or 太王四神記).

It’s was really good drama. (Especially the battle/war parts. Feels like playing Age Of Empire again.. ) Yaahhh~! Bae Yong Joon is still so cool and handsome as ever. (I didn’t know Bae Yong Joon was injured while filming this drama.. injuring his finger, neck and shoulder.. Ouch..)

So looking forward to see who Damdeok is gonna end up with.. (Hope it was Sujini.)
Haizzz.. But, I was SO DISAPPOINTED with the ending.. (好失望噢.) Ended quite abruptly.
What happened to Sujini and the rest of the characters after that??!! (So puzzled.)

Chi~!

Omg, (can’t help it.. using this word for opening..) I’m so addicted to this anime~! It’s called: Chi’s Sweet Home. Just saw this few days ago. Each episode is around 3 minutes long.. (So short leh..) Cats/kittens lovers definitely must see~! Meow~! Chi already captures my heart…(also makes me wanna collect all Chi’s stickers..) I wanna have one kitten too~!

(Resource from wiki)
A gray and white kitten with black stripes wanders away from her mother and siblings one day while enjoying a walk outside with her family. Lost in her surroundings, the kitten struggles to find her family and instead is found by a young boy, Youhei, and his mother. They take the kitten home, but pets are not allowed in their housing complex, they try to find a new home for the kitten. This proves to be difficult, and the family eventually decides to keep the kitten, naming her "Chi".

Here are some screenshots I took from CR..
Introducing:

This is Chi~! I loved her voice very much. I even find her voice quite familiar. Sounds like Himawari in Crayon Shin-chan~! Seiyuu: Satomi Korogi. Also the voice of Himawari alright~! (I was correct~!!! No wonder so familiar~!)


Awww…. Poor neko.. Chi is lost.. (I wanna hug Chi..)


Chi among the stuff toys. Camouflage~! lol


Chi’s near death experience… (After bathing… lol)


I love Chi’s back.

Chiii~! Meow.. Such an adorable Neko..


My very UGLY/SCARY Chi…超丑的. (Lying on my stomach… Trying to remember how Chi looks like without reference..anyhow sketch..) I CAN NEVER DRAW KITTEN/CAT~!! That’s why I only draw the back of the cat..

Chi belong’s to Konami Kanata.

^~Onmyouji~^

Finally, the last entry for today..

Onmyouji desu. 阴阳师. (陰陽師) I really love the movie very much!! Watch it few year ago and I still want to see it again~! I hope to see it again!! I prefer the first movie, it’s much better than the second one though..

I love the characters: Abe no Seimei (by: Mansai Nomura) and Minamoto no Hiromasa. (by: Ito Hideaki)

I’ve always been obsess with ancient priest/priestess, dark, supernatural, mysterious, myth, legends etcs thingy.. Don’t understand why.. it will always attracts me..

Just finish this just now.. Only took few hours.. A simple coloring over the sketch..



Just a simple sketch.


Simple coloring over it.. Now then I realize.. it looks horrible.. The bamboos looks ugly too.. + My ugly calligraphy. I use a simple program: ougishi4lb30 to write it.


Playing with the colors again..

* Minty Breeze *

Yup~! That’s the title~! Minty Breeze.

I really love love this piece~! It’s one of the most beautiful piece I’ve ever done~! What’s more no reference~! Woo.. But the only thing is.. It’s done in 768 x 1024 pixels.. So small.. Sob.. Since the hard disk is almost running out of space.. must reduce the size.. ToT

Just finish this yesterday. I was listening to Jay’s 发如雪 while I paint this. Took about 5/6 hours perhaps..


Totally done digitally~!
1. The sketch was done in oc.
2. Tried to color in oc again..
3 As you can see.. I fail to do so with it. After sometime.. Switched over to ps.. lol
4 The ugly hair and eyes!!
5 Keep on painting…

Finally, end up with such lovely piece.. Well, to me that is.. I didn’t add in the petals.. Since I may ruin the whole piece.. This is the Original color.


Here’s a softer version after several round of blending options.

Change the colors again.. Hmm.. IT’S STILL LOOKS VERY LOVELY~! Lol.

The softer version.

This is slightly darker version.


Still playing around with the color options..


Thee softer version again.
