9th August is...

Singapore's National Day! Happy birthday Singapore! 

From start till the end.

So... A friend asked what happened to the paper figure from this old post, an instillation piece I did earlier this year. I thought I should do a post about the instillation piece. I don't have much photos, but here we go!

News paper birds, covered up with old animation papers and  wall paper paste. I used corrugated card board for the wings.

Same process as above.

In exchange for a deer's head, I requested some friends to help fold hundreds of mini paper cranes, and they helped me further with the installation of the cranes. :')

After hours of trial and error, the instillation was finally up! It was quite a joy to walk around the hanging paper cranes.

Cameo of someone's butt and other student's works.

After six months of spooking people, collecting dust and threats from the father lord to charge rent for taking up space, paper figure finally hit the bin. :(

The birds live on, in a store at far east shopping center. :)

Well, that's it!

Experiments and explorations.

This one was re-sketched and carefully inked.

And so, I have found something to draw that fills the sketchbook.  Great brain busting activity.

The results that you get at the end is rather fascinating. The aim  was to  practice depth and careful planning. Yup,  just inks.

I've been drawing wolves lately.

wolves + spaghetti = your doom.

Another depth experiment thing.

Appa and Momo

Zombie Appa. That can't be good.

Appa and Momo from Avatar the Last Airbender. Probably one of the best cartoon series out there.

Robots, dragons and critters.

Ears on an aquatic animal don't work.

Dusty blog is dusty.

Quick sketches of live models. Done between 2 - 5 miniutes with a Pilot G-tec C4.

You can see my frustration at the hips of the woman and the guy.
"not getting it right!! ARRGGHHH!!"
*scribble*

Forgot how long this sketch took me. Slightly longer than 5 min?  Hm...

Old man tonal study.

Late for work no more. This thing eats cars too.

Yeah... apologies for the total lack of updates. I was working on a project and finding a job recently. (I got a job! yay!) Wow, it's been six months since this blog was set up. I think I am getting more efficient with working directly in photoshop! I have made some progress. Woo~ Things are slowly settling in place, and I hope to work on old projects! Until the next post! :D

While I was gone.

Sorry for the lack of updates, stuff happened over the last one and the half months. Although I was gone, I did manage to do some stuff! Greyscale tonal sketches for that matter (I suck at colours). Here are some choice picks. Hooray!

Goat

Ghostly wolf.

So adorable... Don't you want to punch it?

This one I'm proud of, didn't use reference for this. I love painting this kind of atmosphere! 

Oh, and what's an animator's blog without animations? Shame on me. I only have this good one from 09' though. :(
