MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE AND HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!

Soldier

Here are some soldier ideas I have been working on. Still in the brainstorming part...but just thought I'll post something up.

A project I recently finished for a client. Pretty enjoyed this project as I explore face expressions.

Thong Bean

I have a friend that I believed has some similarities to Mr. Bean. So I had to draw him.



......and make a quick poster out of it.

Here's a quick Sunday night portrait, to practice on my colours.

Awkward Penguin

A picture of a penguin I just had to get out of my head.

Ip Man

Today I was commented on how my portrait of my brother is so 'ugly'. I gave my reason that I was working against time and I was in a rush and did not have enough time to find good reference. I was then given the sarcastic laugh that gives the impression of 'YEAH RIGHT!' Angry by this, I went home after work and whipped up a portrait that gives a response of "YES! That IS right!'

Illustration of my brother
Time needed: 1 hr and 23mins
Portrait of Donnie Yen
Time needed: 1hr 59mins

Here's a quick sketch I did, mixing the cartoony style that I am trying to learn with my own kind of style. Time needed: 36mins

This picture took 23mins. It's getting better. The limbs and figure is much better than the previous drawing. I also add a big nose to make it more cartoony. lol!
Ok, so I thought it would be fun to mix some things up by drawing this image It took me 29 mins to do. Getting faster, but I think the drawing is getting a little bit more sloppier. =S

Edit: Sunday, 3:53pm. Here's a quick one I finished before work.
Time needed: 36mins.
Getting a little bit quicker :)



Edit: Here's another pic. At 3:24am... Time needed: 40mins





It's 2:25am on a Sunday morning and I am just practicing this cartoony style.
I am still creating 40mins per pic, but I think I am kinda getting the hang of it. :)

Heres a couple of quick sketches I did for a job opening. The time was limited, I was to finished both of the drawings under 60mins. However the truck took me 40mins as i switch between illustrator and photoshop. As for the image of the dude following from the roof took me 35mins.

Hmm...well hope these times would be okay :S Fingers crossed! xx

Today I ran out of movies to watch so I started searching for some Alvin Lee and Bobby Chiu interviews on youtube where, surprisingly, it motivated me to doodle in my sketch book.



And so I felt like working on a portrait, using watercolour and ink, which was inspired by one of Mark Crilley's tutorial on youtube. I must say, that guy knows how to illustrate in Manga style.

Yes I know, I haven't been updating the blog for awhile. In my defence, I was on holiday for a month. As for the rest of the other days, I was preparing for it. =)

Anyway, I have been working on ink for a couple of days now and I felt like I should upload my progress.
I'm still getting the hang of it, but I believe it's getting better as a progress.

The Fish Plane
Here's another image of the Fish Plane.
A brief description -
This machine does not need wings to fly, rather it has three mechanisms that makes it hover in the air. The hovering mechanisms turns slightly whenever the driver want's to change direction.
It also has a rocket engine at the back for it to move forward.
The antenna at the back (the very long tail at the back) gives it good receptions to receive wireless internet from anywhere around the world.

It is a good flying machine to be used if you want a lazy ride on a Sunday afternoon.

Here is the final rendering of Pigsy. I haven't have much time to work on it since I've been working. Apparently, money does not grow on trees.

By the way, I have been working on a new project. So stick around. I will be uploading them soon.
