Crafts shopping food and dolls = weekend fun ^^
You be warned, this entry has a lot of FOOD pictures right at the end of the post :P
Here’s a non related close up shot of Meow taken on 20th when he was being nosy about something I was doing at the time which I cannot remember now ^^;
Another post about random
This week managed to finish a record speed little commission for Otaku Dan! :D Very happy to be chosen to refresh the mascot/logo, the mascot is so cute, like a mochi with ears, tail and glasses ^O^ ^^; want to eat it lol!
Click on image below to see the page introducing the art ^^/
I draw full time for cartoondollemporium.com but occassionally I do take a freelance commission or 2, have to squeeze it into free time sometimes if the commission has more details ^^; Each commission work is different, so charge and time to complete differ per client ^^; Example if the mascot is a full size girl with detailed clothing etc, it’ll cost more than drawing a mochi mascot with a face and accessory :) Currently I have a couple things in queue ^^; (Sorry for the wait!)
Happy Valentine’s Day!
My online gallery was live on 14 feburary since 1997! (^O^)/! (Man I feel old :P)
I was trying to draw something more sexy or moe, but my left eye had been bugging me on and off making it hard to work long hours on computer so, hope U peeps don’t mind the quick art below ^^;
A day in – random photo dump
I must apologize for the lack of art related entries these days, caring for an old sick cat is a lot of work and it did take it’s toll on both me and husband. ^^; Everyday revolves around checking Meow to make sure he’s eating, peeing + pooing and feeding him medication (am sure even you guys are sick of hearing me talk about this lol!) Good thoughts from everyone helps tho :) Thanks a bunch! He’s not 100% yet but we hope he’s slowly getting there!
Tonite I was playing with my dwarf hammy Ebichu, so I took a few quick pictures of her. I LOLed when I saw that I managed to catch a very rare picture of her tongue! How cute is that?!
Thursday sketches
Finally an overdue entry for some sketches ^^; Our cat’s condition is still keeping us on our toes, so I barely have time to think about sketches, but I was at the shop yesterday and there were some slower moments so I sketched on and off. Here are 3 of them ^^/! My eyes (optical pair, just to clarify for those who are from dannychoo :P) had been really tired, and twitchy possibly from not enough rest =_=; Anyhows,
Below is a pencil sketch, with semi reference to one of my Mirai Yukino Dollfie dream photo I took recently :)

A (few) day(s) in…
This is a kinda non art related post unless you want to count this postit art my husband drew :P
There’s a sneak peek of something I was working on near end of this entry tho ;D
Our poor senior Meowmeow was sick since monday (started puking around 4 am on monday and puked every other hour o_o), very bad for him, our finances and all of our stress level ^^; Hopefully it’s nothing super major since blood work and xray was non conclusive at the moment.
Happy Niu Year!
Happy Niu Year!
Sorry a little late as the festivities usually = busy time ^^; Anyways if you don’t know already, the chinese new year usually means we’re supposed to celebrate 15 days by visiting relatives and such. Married folks will give unmarried folks (kids usually) red-packets etc etc… ^^; To see the full image, just click on image below, I will update it into the gallery later ^^/
I had already coloured the Mirai image in the last couple of entries, it would be a little strange to go backwards to demonstrate colouring. So I will use this Niu Year image above to roughly demonstrate how I colour a quick CG :)
Please take note tho, this is only one of the many many ways we can colour using the computer, and it is not a set in stone method, and I may be going a little too fast as well, so please bear with me ^^;/
From sketch to ink process
So, k asked what program did I used to create the Nurse Mirai fan art in my previous entry. So in this entry I will show three stages from sketching (with a pencil) to an inked and partially cleaned up image.
I drew this sketch when I was not at home on 80g weight paper, using a mechanical pencil. Before I inked the sketch with a drawing pen, I managed remember to take a picture of the sketch with my camera (hence you see all the artifacts around the sketch).
Nurse Mirai fan art
Did a sketch which turned into a full blown CG ^^; Danny was not feeling well these couple days, and for some reason I keep seeing an image of Mirai chan as a nurse in my head… :P For the full image (legs and all) please click on image below, I have also updated it into the Gallery :)
