Holiday Achievements Pt.1

Surprise? Well you best be! If it weren't for some individuals out there, this place would still be collecting (cyber)dust! So please give them a big thank you! [pfft.] As most of you may know, I was busy with some school work and recently, exams but that's not my reason for not posting. My excuse is that there isn't anything interesting happening lately. I really don't get how you daily bloggers do it. Such madness! Alright that's all. See ya next hols!



























What? Didn't you just ask for AN update? Well I'm here to tell you that I'm still alive. But obviously you want more. You all sure are greedy bastards. However, because of your kind morale support I thought I should do something in return. So, I'm here to tell you on my progress during the (almost) 1 week of hols. And I thought of a cool way to present it too! [obviously cause I'm lazy to type passages and I'm sure you'd be too lazy to read it anyways or busy trying to pick out my garammatical and sppeling errors.]

Thus, I present you, Holiday Achievements PART ONE :
[for those who are a lil unfamiliar with achievements, if the achievement is grayed out, that means I've yet to unlock it.]

For those who are rather curious of what headphones I bought. Here's a hint :

Yup, Razer Piranha. Why I needed it? For the lulz.

Well, see you all next week! Hopefully.

Moar drawings?

Here's some I did near the end of last year but was just lazy to post. Too lazy to explain anything. so there. And don't bother telling me about wrong proportions and stuff like that. I know.

Espada 0 Sketch.

Electronic Tea.

Sketch.

FYI : Electronic Tea - the tattoos on her are songs from Capsule. except "Pocky", the left leg is behind the right that's why its shorter and smaller.

Color Test

Can't be sure if there's anyone that still visits here. Posting anyways.

This is actually the first time I had drawn an animu properly (well, tried.) on pc straight with my wacom pc tablet. As you may know, I've always sketched on paper and scan and publish. Not only I've drawn straight in the computer, but also colored it! *shock* yea. yea. I know. It aint the best around the interweb, well at least I've tried.

It's damn hard to draw straight in the pc. And this is only A HEAD! I don't know how those guys do it.. Maybe theirs are the pro-er wacom tablets, mine's the basic one. Maybe.

Oh well. Cheers.
PS: I don't give a damn about proportions in this, so stop bugging me.
PPS: For those who visited here because I've put my personal message in MSN : "NSFW Content". Well thank you for visiting and YOU JUST LOST THE GAME. tq :]
PPPS: For those who just lost the game, still unsure of what happened? Here's something to enlighten your mind.


Oh btw, just for the lulz, how many people here (not like I'm implying there's something reading this) actually use "Color" instead of "Colour"? Raise of hands?

☣

As promised, another drawing. Seriously, I need to start drawing more frequently, gettin rusty. Made alot of major mistakes during the process. Well it's done now!

The head is whacked. I know. Ignore it. Had problems with it. Oh, and don't bother about the sword as well, got lazy to draw it after so many failed attempts on the head.
Don't mean to brag, but the rest is pretty ok, I must say. Well if you think otherwise, feel free to criticize CONSTRUCTIVELY.

Oh her name's Rai anywayz. Yes, a random name for absolutely no reason.

Attached a sketch drawing of it as well, so it's easier to see the character, knowing the left hand is a lil messy with her sleeve and tie and all.

Oh and something else, just for the lulz of it :

You will take over Malaysia using only one hundred monkeys sitting at one hundred typewriters Take this quiz at QuizGalaxy.com

Remember me, guys?

I hope you guys didn't think this blog was dead. It's more like a zombie blog nao, so you best check back!! Anywayz for those faithful viewers, you MAY know that I've went to Japan, and back, infact for 3 days now. So I best start posting some of my experience before I start losing more faithful readers. Not like you guys wanna know anywayz.

All pics will be in Flickr as its ezier that way. Here's the link : HERE
And if you guys know how to use the Flickr Map thingo, you can get the better picture of my travels.

Alright.

Day1 :
Board plane. Talk. Sleep. Eat. Sleep.

Day2 :
Wake up. Arrive Japan. First stop, INSTANT RAMEN MUSEUM. Saw some ancient ramen, then modern ramen and lastly SPACE RAMEN. and how they make ramen and all that stuff. NEXT, Osaka Castle. Saw some really cool scenary and ate self-made takoyaki which mine burnt. [forgot to take pic] Next, went Kobe and visited this Disaster Reduction Museum, where they showed some earthquake pics and videos and teach us how to prevent and reduce earthquakes, all those stuff. NEXT, hotel. i cant quite remember what happened later.

Day3 :
Wake up. Go Kyoto. Went to Kiyomizu Temple. Forgot to take pics. Well I have some. But not the temple but rather around it. Ill give you a link instead. Then theres this 3 fountain thingo. Where u gotto walk up there and drink either one of the 3 fountain's water. I forgot which was which but one of them is Health, middle is Wisdom and the other is Love. The pics are in the Flickr site. Next, TERAMACHI. Forgot pics again. There was this giant crab sign. In other words, its some shopping district like Petaling Street. Next, went to our main objective Omi Brotherhood School. Got some welcoming there and we did our stupid performance. Met mah host which was also Khye Mun's host. We share host. His name was Tomoki. He's kinda ok. Had fun trying to guess our conversations. Night, ate his mom's homemade sukiyaki (i think). Bliss-ness. Oh right a lil background on his family, he has a father, a lil brother named Shion, and a dog named Choco (forgot pics of dog and father and mom, im a bad bad guest.)

Day4 :
Morning had this thing. I dont know what it is but we gotto do our stupid performance again. then we had YAKISOBA PARTY. where basically grill insanely huge amount of yakisoba and we feast. how cool is that. Then went shopping with host. Which mah host so happen's to be friends with Phin Jeck's and Russel's host. So we all went shopping together. Didnt buy anything.

Day5 :
Woke up. Went Kyoto using JR Train (i think thats what they call their local trains) then took the SHINKANSEN (Bullet Train) to Maibara. The ironic thing is, from Omihaciman(where i started) to Kyoto, it took 30 mins, and Kyoto to Maibara which has a furthur distance than Omihaciman to Kyoto, it took only 20 mins. How cool is that? srsly. If you guys know how to use the Flickr map thingo, then you can get a better picture. (Oh forgot to take the picture of the bullet train coming, was daydreaming, so i took a pic of some random train. Hope that will satisfy ya.) Then from Maibara we took the JR Train to Nagahama, where we met up with his parents. Some shopping district again. Shopped a lil. Ate a lil. Then was brought to this Glass Sanding place. Where we sand glass. or something. we can draw our own design and then sand it on the glass. i dont know how to say it. Posting pics another time. At night we went to see the Hikone Castle. It was closed. So we walked around the compound. There were lights shining on it. And its hard to take pics at night. Not the mention when the castle was lit up, my camera went out of battery. Sorry guys.

Day6 :
Says goodbyes to host family. Went USJ (Universal Studios JAPAN). Rode Spiderman first, then Back to the future, then Jurrasic Park, then JAWS, (this was the part where ga, jamin, jo and khye mun ditched me and tze), then back to the future, (this was the part where ga, jamin, jo and khye mun lied about sitting the Hollywood roller coaster), then Hollywood ride something (this was the part where me and tze found out they lied). The hollywood one is supposedly the top ride in USJ, cuz it seems like the only outdoor roller coaster with real plunges. Then took some pics. Then went back hotel. Ate buffet. Played with ice cream machine. Made Float. (pics taken.)

Day7 :
Took some shadow pics (guess who). Board plane. Sleep. Wake up. Eat. Sleep. Arrive Kota Kinabalu. Board plane. Talk. Arrive KL.

THAT IS ALL.

Alright, so over there, Ive bought a few things. Fraulein Revoltech Yoko Figurine, Figumate Yoko Figurine, Capsule Flashback album and Capsule MORE! MORE! MORE! album. FYI Its not that i love yoko so much, its that i cant find others. Other people bought gundams.

If you manage to read everything, congrats. If your too lazy too, its okay as well, JUST GO SEE THE PICS I TOOK. thank you for your cooperation :]

Here's the link for the pics, AGAIN.

Oh yea. Informing about typos are welcome. Just dont abuse and use constructive sentences. :]

Cheers.

Contributing to dead blog.

In contribution to this half-dead blog, I'm announcing that I would be off to Japan for an exchange student trip, like the one to singapore, only further. Which would take about a week or so. Thus I bid you all farewell. But not like you all care.. Will post pics when I get back. hopefully.

ALSO will be posting drawing when I get back, hopefully to find inspiration in jaPAN. Wanted to post one before I left. But too busy playing Fallout3. It's a good game.

so while I'm gone, go listen to some Daft Punk.



Till then, Cheers :]

Feeling arty?

Is arty even a word?

By the title I'm pretty sure you know I'm gonna show off my art again. Well I wouldn't say show off. more like... display.. yes. besides it's not really that great.

Alright, let's get to the main point.
If you all can still remember one of my older art postings here, I've received many comments mostly saying that it looks like a guy. other than that, the obvious would be the legs are too thin. so on so forth. Well, feeling uneasy about it I took the initiative to redraw a new Yoko. and hopefully a more feminine one.
jeng jeng. Well. not much comments on it. Changed a few bits here and there from the original. yea. If you noticed, her right skates are the same as her old ones. Didn't bother to do the shading on the eyes.

Here's the one that I scanned before i added all those "decorations", for those who prefer a pure one. And If you noticed, this scan is clearer and larder than the one on top. Well thats cause something happened to my scanner. Long story. but at the end I found a solution. but you guys don't care anyways.
And I'm not sure if you guys noticed, but there's something wrong with her anatomical structure. But I wont tell you cause its embarassing.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Alright besides that, as I am the Creative Editor of my school's Leo Club, I was in charged to do some deco on our board[there's this Leo board at the canteen for everyone to see] So I just whipped up something from stencils and spray paint.
Alright the words sucked a lil. But the flying cat head is kinda cool, in my opinion. And the cat's tail(?) was supposed to have that.. fading effect. but something went wrong somewhere.

Unfortunately it doesn't fit with theme of the board [supposedly too dark and Gothic? i think its cute.] But I'm just gonna leave it there.


P/s: arty is a word. yes, laugh at my lil knowledge on vocabulary.
