Sushi Platter

I love sushi but I kinda messed this up. Kinda of too bright. How do i draw rice??? The ginger is totally off. The only thing I like about this is the fish roe.

Boobylicious

I don't know why I kept wanting to draw boobs these few days. Haha! Her boobs supposed to be bigger but somehow my incorrect lines made her boobs smaller. The perspective and the proportion of both the hands are wrong but I'm lazy to change it so here you go. Stare at the smaller boobs. Till next time.

Sheepish



























This is my second attempt at landscape, after my first failed one. The reference is in sepia. I'm struggling with drawing sheep. The photo reference is really a magnificent drawing but I failed at making it look awesome. Sometimes I really yearn for this kind of lifestyle. Travelling in a foreign land with animals, breathing and living life. Slowing down and taking a look around. Life can really be simple yet fulfilling. There are things that I want to achieve this life but sometimes one just long for more than materialism. The question is how to make the most out of everyday.

Exposure and experience is great and I long to travel the world. Anyway, dodge tool is bad for this one. There are a few marks left from doing so. Seeing big shapes in a photo is very important. I think I really need to work on human and animal anatomy. The man and sheep look not so convincing.

Iron Bars Nom nom nom

Oh man. I really wanted to draw/sketch some stuff but I procrastinated! Anyway, I tried to at least do something tonight.

What did I tell ya! Crazy for robot. I think practice really makes perfect. Looking at my past sucky attempts. This one is slightly better. Haha. I hope you can tell it is iron man! I love that movie!





I've been trying hard on the lighting. This one took me around an hour. I'm getting faster! Loving the dodge tool. Super effective to make things glow. The perspective is off in this one. I'll start working on my perspective. In this speed painting I learnt how not to overdo stuff, especially the color or else it will turn out muddy and fake.

I know I still suck balls but I'm trying! I hope my art will be as good as my drums one day. I'll give myself 6 months to reach this target. I'll TRY!!!


 I saw this amazing korean artist play with some serious perspective. Gotta do some crazy stuff like that!

Robot Nightmare

























My humble attempt to paint Master chief. No I do not play Halo. I don't know why I love robots so much. Fetish for robots. Haha.

This is my very first painting after I know the existence of the dodge tool and overlay technique. God I'm such a noob. Need to work on the colors. This looks rather muddy and dull. I think I spent 1 and a half hours at snail speed.

Need to work on:

Rendering technique.
Lighting
Perspective
Colors
Shapes

That seems like everything needs improvement! Go charlie!

Digidigi




















Re-watching my favourite singers do their thing on youtube. Paused at this screenshot. The lighting is pretty amazing but I think I didn't do justice to that shot. Practicing real hard! Need to figure out hard edges and soft edges. I got them all mixed up.

This is the first drawing that I used my own color palette instead of lifting from the image. Indeed, the colors popped more than merely copying the values.

I think I used 1h. Oh well. At least it was faster than the last time I practice.

Brush up little monkey


















First post! Udon keeps me going! Speedpainting of mountain ranges. I don't think you will know if I didn't tell you. Haha. Real bad.

 My lack of practice made me a very rough artist. I need some polishing so I'm gonna start posting really bad drawings here till I get better.

My teacher once said that if a drawing works when viewed in a thumbnail, it is a strong image. I'm starting to see things a little differently.

Little things in life:


  • Big shapes
  • Power of suggestion, not detail
  • Lighting
  • Imagination
