Noodleheads

Last weekend, I made some fresh pasta from scratch. It was amazingly easy!! Also, Zombieland is SO fun. Go watch it if you haven't already.

Random

Ahhh so uninspired!!! >.<

Girl on Swing

She didn't have feet because I miscalculated the space on which I drew this on ^^;

AAh nearly December and I don't have anything for YongumiX yet... yikes!

Street Eats!

Just a quick comic on the street food I encountered in the vicinity of my neighbourhood. There's still lots more that I haven't tried out!

Fish Boy & Octogirl, among other things

Girls and a Tree

Some pretty darn late updates! Yeah I know I should be updating far more frequently than what I'm doing now but again, work caught up yargh. But I'm up to 83 posts for this year and there's still December and I have lots more unscanned stuff in the sketchbook so I'm catching up!

What, No Garbage Chute??

I love my apartment and the immediate surroundings but if there's one major beef I have, it'd be the fact that there's no garbage chute in the high-rise building! The main garbage disposal area is in the 1st and 2nd floor, and I live well above the 10th floor. It's always awkward for me to use the elevator while carrying my trash, especially when there's another (clean and well dressed) person in the elevator as well. I feel bad for subjecting them to the trashy smell!

2012 in a Nutshell (SPOILER ALERT!)

I kid you not, this is how the story ends. Apparently while the rest of the world sunk, the African continent is pushed up way above sea level and is the only remaining habitable piece of land. Arks filled with people who paid billions of euros to be in it (meaning: super rich, super snotty and super bossy entitled people) are last seen congregating together and are headed to this last sanctuary on earth.

How I would like the movie to end: Arks arriving ominously on African shores, while a lone person runs towards the land dwellers, yelling "RUN!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!! HUNDRED OF YEARS AGO THEY TOOK YOUR PEOPLE AND NOW THEY'RE HERE FOR YOUR LAAAAAND!!!!"

You should totally watch it. The visual effects is pretty darn good, actually, and the action sequence is quite gripping and tense-inducing in a sitting-on-the-edge-of-your-seat kinda way. I just find the storyline a bit creepy.

Sorry for the sparse update lately - again, I've been sketching lots in the sketchbook so will scan and update soon!

ARGH BARN BUDDY

Barn Buddy (on Facebook) is soooo stupid but I can't find it in my heart to abandon my farm. So far I have not succumbed to selling out ten other souls to get me a free dog, but my friends had. I am one such soul ensnared!

Lovers

Something from the Sketchbook

Lots of random girls!

Poison Ivy

I think out of any DC villains, she's my fave to draw - mainly because there's so much you can do in terms of composition with all the flora elements.

Fish Maiden meets Octopus Girl

Ok!Been kinda overdue but here's a bunch of stuff.

Staying at home today due to nasty eye slug on my right eye yurghs. Need to go to clinic for follow up checkup!

COLD

Really, sometimes it's ridiculous how cold the office is >.<

I've been feeling rather under the weather lately so I haven't been posting much. There's a whole bunch of stuff waiting to be scanned from the sketchbook though, so that'll make up for that! Take care everyone!

I Am a Chip Bender

Move over Aang for I am a CHIP BENDER! Muahaha. You know, like.. bending..like from Nickelodeon show, Avatar: The Last Airbender? What do you mean you never watched Avatar? Go watch it now, you loser!

Anyway moments after I was whimpering for Pringles, my dear colleague Ezat whipped out a can of potato chips and proceeded to share it with everyone. It is truly a magical event that would shame the best of wizards or witches. My stomach and taste bud is eternally grateful.

And now..

...or salted peanuts. Or Salt & Vinegar Frito Lays potato chips. Or a Cadbury Picnic bar!! Yessssss...

Mermaid in Colour!

I received this lovely surprise in the email today! It's Mermaid & Walrus piece coloured so beautifully by Ryan Claytor whom I had the pleasure of meeting (albeit briefly!) at San Diego Comicon this year. Thanks muchly, Ryan - this totally makes my day :)

(Psst don't forget to check his comics at http://www.elephanteater.com, they're intriguingly addictive)

Mermaid

Our poor fish maiden is being taunted/bugged by a belligerent walrus! A whale should appear and eat him up!

Something from the Sketchbook

I wish I have a coat like the girl on the top pic, in my size! Think of the petites, coat-makers!

Sunset

Quickie done during lunchtime! Just to test out some colour schemes. Done in Photoshop, around 45 mins. It's still kinda dinky but I tried so shaddap! LOL.

I did this with a childhood place in mind: Tanjung Lobang, Miri. My family and I used to stay in the teachers' quarters within a school compound that was situated on top of a cliff overlooking the sea. There's a spot that my brothers and I used to go to in the evenings to play and watch the sunset - it was absolutely beautiful. There was a beach that you can go down to through a path on the side of the cliff, it was like a secret place that belonged only to us. Being there at that time ...those are some of the happiest moments in my life.

Fast forward ten plus years, the spot now has been taken over by a hotel, and the lovely beach below the cliff is covered in concrete embankment. Our lovely sunset spot is gone, blocked by towering hotel building.

You can't stand in the way of progress they say - but I do believe in that line from the movie Miss Potter: "Sometimes beauty is worth preserving."

WIP

Something that I should've thought up for Halloween but somehow the thought didn't occur to me back then...

Comfort Zone

I'm thinking that art-wise I should challenge myself more. LOTS AND LOTS MORE.

Also I wanna make a hundred post before this year ends. So between now and December, that's at least one drawing a day to make it to that goal! Let's go!
