Short Crappy Stuff

A short sketchy comic on my bro's wedding few weeks ago. Click for full view to read!

Fanart of Toph from Avatar: The Last Airbender. I was lazy so I think I missed out on lots of details and had a huge brainfart in the midst of doing it so you get lots of senseless bits of flying dirt sponked all over the artwork. Hee hee...peace!

Avatar: TLA belong to Nickelodeon and this is just a mere fanart so please don't kill maim or sue thanks very much ^^

Dance

And I slip back to ye old warmish colour tones again! Old habits are hard to quit. And speaking of bad habits: Everyone I draw faces left. Not good. Must have varieties.

Candy Colours

Trying to diverge away from the colour schemes I usually use (warmish, reddish tones and what have yous) and decided to wonk it up with bright candy colours! I think I'll still need more practice to come up with colour schemes I want at the snap of a finger, but this'll do for now.

I have been very bad - I have not posted anything for October! So much for discipline. Much apologies but October is a pretty much a holiday month with the Eid celebration and all, and what I lack in drawings, I make it up with dinky holiday pictures! You can look it up in my Livejournal - I can promise you a picture of a random cat and lots of good food ;)

Ty Lee

Ty Lee, my favourite Fire Nation girl holding a fat bird.

My brother's wedding

My second brother is getting married in December and he wants me to draw something for the invitation card. He and his fiancee wanted something with cats.

Because I am lame I came up with this ^^;

Sorry for the delay, big bro!

The Waterbender

I almost didn't want to finish this piece. I had the lineart lying around forever, and when I started colouring I didn't like the direction it was going. I have no idea how the end product is going to look like (which contributed a LOT to floundering and flopping around helplessly in Photoshop adding layers, deleting layers, airbrushing, erasing asjdhawjjhawwd). My aim was to finish it before 3rd season of Avatar begins, but obviously I didn't manage to do that hahaha. I still kinda feel this sort of had 'overdone' all over it, but I probably won't change anything anymore.

Spyro Fan art

Just saw the new PS2 release for this game over at gametrailers.com. I haven't played Spyro for ages. Not since the 2nd game of the PS1 release (Ripto's Rage). It seemed like Spyro had a major overhaul over the years, reboot of the storyline and even a little redesign to the spunky title character itself. I miss the old blocky muzzle he used to have.

Nevertheless, the new game still looks quite interesting! Might as well crank up the old PS2 one of these days.

Fan art!

Remember reading Archie as a kid? Or during the pre-teen years? That eternal love triangle with Archie-Bets-Ronnie. Jughead's pig-outs. Reggie's next evil ploy. I even love Josie and the Pussycats.This is my take on Betty and Veronica, which doesn't do justice to the art of Dan DeCarlo. Maybe more to come next.

B'day Pic for Jade

Markered piece for my friend Jade. That was a great brunch we had! I love my Benny Breakfast.

Something for September

After a particularly busy yet productive August (by my own lackadaisical standard that is) September is a horribly lazy month where I can't seem to be arsed to draw anything good.
These are the only two that I like for this month, even when the 2nd pic was dangerously bordering on watercolour goulash with so many colours clashing for attention.

Lift Off

Whee... this picture. I felt quite ambitious starting this one, thinking how much fun I would have with the dramatic angle and the colouring... but unfortunately my inept watercolouring skills and inexperience took over. And it ended up looking super horrendous and blotchy and very very different from what I have in mind. I'll probably recreate this again in Photoshop some day.

Watercolour dump

Where's that @#%^& Space Shuttle!

Quickie while waiting for colleague so I can go home. She can either be trying to look cool or pissed or pissed but looking cool at the same time. Or constipated. Maybe all of the options.

Painter doodle-de-doo.

Posing Maut

Ninja toitles hoyey!

A fave from my childhood cartoon, the extremely intelligent Donatello and his formidale bo that lets you stand safely at one end while you whack an opponent senseless in the Sega MegaDrive fighting game!

Rendered in Copics (Ciao!), pen, white gel pen and a lil' dash of colour pencils.

Costume/ outfit is sooo inaccurate but yeargh.

And I met Kevin Eastman woo! He was in Malaysia, visiting our workplace wooo!

ok enough spazzing.

Boredom

Drawing of random fairy like creature when I was bored at work and extremely itching to try out colour pencils. Rendered in liquid watercolour and slathered on colour pencils like nobody's business.

I'm running out of inspiration these days - arrghh. I need to watch Bale movies. Lots and lots of Christian Bale movies.

Avatar fan artz!

Some recent artworks done during Comiworld '07. Rendered in markers and colour pencils (Staedler Luna I love youze)

Flowers

Drawing these ornamental stuff always calms me down when I'm too stuffed in the head, stressed or tired. I really love those graphic designers/ illustrators who specialize in ornamental arts - it always amazes me how they come out with their works - the intricacies, the beautiful details. Hope to do more of these soon when I can draw better flowers XD

Love at First Cactus

"I think I'll take you home!"

Farewell

Just finished watching Ratatouille in the cinema, and the lights were up and I received news that Mike Wieringo had passed away.

http://www.newsarama.com/Chicago_07/Ringo.html

It was kind of sad, he was a great artist, always had time to comment on newcomers on the Drawingboard forum, large array of inspiring works - I guess it just hits those who love him and his works doubly hard because he was just so damn nice.

Here's to an amazing artist and person.
