Sorry for being MIA for a few days ^^; Had been kinda under the weather over the weekend :( and was busy with work last week =_=;
Quickly scanned 3 doodles to post ^^ I forgot to date this one, so not sure when did I sketched it (oops) but yes another Ranka Lee sketchu desu. ^^; While I’m not the biggest fan of her I do like her outfits in the anime :3
A girl with cake, and a nurse with syringe ^^;;;;

okie time to prep dinner ^^;;;;
Almost forgot, the still image is here for now :)
Recently had been watching xxxHolic Kei love it, recommend it ^^ nice catchy opening/ending tracks too :D I was reminded I wanted to draw these 2 little characters for a while now so here they are! Image is slightly processed on photoshop to give it the colour tinge ^^
I have been ask on a few occasions what kind of paper/pen/pencils/materials do I use.
I personally do have a few preferences, but I find that it doesn’t hurt to try out different/new materials when we do not have our actual tools at hand :)
When I was in my teens, I had also tried stuff like the fancy G-nibs — they were really difficult to come by at the time and a fellow artist gave me a few ^^; (G-nibs is the kind which you need to dip into an ink pot, and you end up dripping a splash of ink on your almost finished work and you bleep bleep bleep :P). Also gotten expensive Manga drafting paper but unfortunately with the latter I couldn’t bear to use it (so wasted some money ^^; ) Also bought screen tones, but with the ease of computer, those quickly got phased out ^^;;;
I started drawing when I was still a student (meaning not a lot of money to throw around) so I eventually picked up some tools and materials which I felt that are affordable and good :)
So below as listed is my usual weapons (LOL) based in when I live in Singapore, cost varies quite a bit in Canada ^^;
Pencil: 2B 0.5 mechanical pencils (no real preference for brands)
Eraser: Mono erasers (have not found any other brand which beats how good this is)
Pen: Pilot Drawing Pen or Pigma Micron the latter is more expensive ^^; I usually use 0.3, 0.5 is good if I want to colour some parts black. These pens are pretty long lasting :)
Paper: 80g photocopying paper (any thinner ink tend to bleed, and paper is kinda “see thru”, any thicker is nice but more expensive)
I use watercolour occasionally even tho I colour with the computer a lot these days. It is always good to practice without being reliant on “control + z” ^^
Recently I forgot to bring a sketch book/paper to the shop I work a day per week, so I bought a couple sketch pads from Daiso, unfortunately one of the sketch book’s backing started to warp after I took it out of the plastic bag which contains it (not sure if it was cos it was too humid?) ^^; I drew the above Fan art in it, started inking it, the good thing is it does not bleed (bleed= ink spread out on paper giving a fuzzy edge). But it was fine for sketching down ideas during slower hours of the day ^^
If I have an idea I want to put on paper and have no paper, I’ll grab other stuff to draw on. I used to draw a lot on the back of my hand to remind me stuff to do or ideas I had ^^ (but that got a bit unsightly :P sometimes napkins work for jotting down ideas :3 And of course I know a lot of us like to draw on our textbooks when the lecture started making us nod off ^^;
An example of a sketch of an idea by my hubs on a napkin (LOL)
So now that you have read up to here, if you like drawing, do you have a favorite weapon/medium of choice?
Been a while since I last tumblred ^^
half about summer half about food lol
picture of the beautiful sky at 8.30pm ^^
I find that when there’s drastic change in the weather I appreciate the good weather more :P
So what was keeping me rather busy for a while now was this new game/doll for cartoondollemporium, I’m quite happy with 2 of the hidden animals in this game XD
Be warned tho, there’s plenty of sound effects for this game so please turn down your volume if U view it late at nite :3
I have started on another one since last nite ^^;;;
Luckily I did not have to take a whole week to complete this one :P
After dinner, continued cleaning up and colouring and now it is done ^^! Clicking on the image below will get you a slightly larger image, I have also updated it into Gallery page under Colour ^^/
This image is cleaned up and coloured in photoshop :3
okie gonna continue doing some work before zzzz ^^;;;
Hmmm this week was pretty much whipped to finish some work, so didn’t really have time to draw much, today took a little time off, cleaned up one of the simpler line art from the previous post, and started colouring a bit :P Doesn’t look too bad in this mode no?
I also sketched roughly and quickly a couple fan arts, not scanned yet tho ^^; maybe eventually :P
We were trilled to find out that Danny was interested to use some of the images I had mucked around with, in his site’s header pool and also for the “is ecchi” images thumbnail (LOL)!
Mind you, the original character artworks are created by the most talented Azami yuko sensei ^^/ I only tried my hand at creating some layers for the more goofy expressions (as you can see on the image below). For a clearer look at the bigger images, you can check out this link :)
It all originated from the Wonfes Hatsune Miku news post, where Danny was requesting his readers for attempts to give his 2 adorable sister mascots, Mirai and Haruka extra facial expressions :) You’ll find some interesting variants by some of the talented readers on that news page as well :D
Hoo, got inspired to do my on tinkering lol
Worked on Lady Centaur from the previous post a bit ^^
having a headache so probably will stop here for now ^^; The weather these days has been so weird, I probably got the headache from getting too much wind on my head =_=;
