+ new layout! +

Oh cool... blogger has added some new features in layouts. :} I love it. *hearts*

Been drawing a bit here and there, just really rough doodles and sketches for practice. Nothing big. Rusty as ever. Gotta get my human printer workin again!! Arrrr!! *pirate impersonation*

Ciao for now. Love ya. ;}

I want to draw.

Especially nowadays. However, I find there is little time left. Like today, my first day of work, I get back home then I feel inspired, I wanna draw. Somehow somethings pop up like household chores and my daily dizziness which always seems to happen during evenings - I don't know why, God help me.

And so I do my housework. Wash everybody's clothes, dry clothes, wash the dishes. Eat dinner, shower, wash my face - cleanser, toner, moisturizer, etc. And by the time I finish all this it's already 11pm... What the heck? Then I feel tired and just want to rest which then makes me feel frustrated at myself for not being able to do the things I want to do. And then I start to become totally unmotivated and uninspired. Then I totally don't wanna do draw, just want to rest. I hate this.

I need to be more efficient. Need to be faster. So I can do the things I love once again. Like drawing. It's been so long since I actually opened Photoshop and STARTED DOODLING something IN THERE. Hello!? 2 months+!? Ed, you can do better than that!

I also want to start going to the gym regularly actually.

So now, instead of bitching, I should actually DOODLE SOMETHING in Photoshop before it gets too late then I have to sleep already and wake up early the next day.

So many things to do, so little time.

Shut up, Ed. Start drawing. Stop babbling.

Btw, paging Chris Clark, I miss you lots. Gimme your gmail if you've got one. Or skype, even better!

+ Hyderabad +

Hello guys, this is my 2nd week in Hyderabad. I miss you all a lot and of course, I miss the cleanliness and facilities in Malaysia.... convenient stores and stuff but no prob.

I don't have a laptop and my pre-paid credit for my India number is limited till I top it up every once in a while. It's so difficult to find top up shops here. Hence, my "disappearance" from the world. The only computer available is either at the office or my friend's laptop (which I'll have to borrow if I wanna go online).

I had extreme sinus for the first whole week due to the dust, and now it's cured already. Other than the crazy traffic, cunning auto drivers and being different from Malaysia (24/7 stores, easily accessible clinics, etc), Hyderabad is a cool place. I met lotsa cool people. I even drank whiskey and cognac on the airplane with 2 cool Indian dudes and made friends with them.

Here in the office, it's like a buffet everyday (lol dapat cuci mata). It's really awesome. Lotsa cool people here. They say "cool" a lot. I think it's getting to me. Like a virus. LOL It's cool. I'm trying to remember all people in RnH Hyderabad's names. I hope I get to learn more about the people here and about my group too.

So far, we had a group tour to Charminar, Chowmahalla Palace and Necklace Road. It was a fantastic time. Especially with Darpan's crack comments and narration. LOL ERRRR...... I hope they don't make me sing "Just Chill" and dance for the company meeting. Shait. If so, then I'll run with my trademark pose okeh?? Haha. Just like in Charminar.

I guess that's all for now. Take care cool people! See you the next time! And thank you for visiting or even reading this blog of mine!! I'm amazed! It's been a while since I posted something here. HA.

Right, note to self:
-remember to always focus in class/training
-give it your best
-take care of your budget
-be strong
-discipline! Discipline is the thing!

Portfolio Scrap Book

Hello guys. Sorry for not replying comments or anything lately. Been pretty busy practicing drawing and updating myself. Life is tough. It really is. Especially with the economic down turn. I mean, come on, you need to spend money to make money. More money circulation means the faster we can bring up our economy huh?

Okeh. Nuff rambling. Here's my scrap book portfolio. Very much inspired by my SIFU Jiwo! XD Hope u dun mind, sifufufufufu. Some drawings are old, some are new. Hope you enjoy them. And yes, please don't laugh at me. I hope I improved somewhat on my art...

Parchment so you can write your message in it.

Took me almost a whole day to draw and cut the papers and stick 'em.
To the point of nauseating. Too many things to cut but it was worth it.
Some of the designs were cut out from ang pow packets.

Hello everyone! How are you??

It's been a while but I'm reviving this art blog!

I'm happy to be drawing again! Feels awesome to even sketch just a little! T_T Wah... drawing can make you feel at peace. I forgot how it feels when I wasn't drawing for a long time. Now my drawing skills are rusty, worst than ever so please be patient with my mistakes... especially anatomy and foreshortening mistakes. HAHA. I'm workin on it. >_<

And here we go!

Scenes from Harry Potter the movie. With reference.


Quick sketch from FF12. That hot guy at the opening FMV.


Speed paint. Ref pic from SlipperyLittleSuckers. Ref pics colours were dull... I added more colours to it. Uwah. My itchy hands!!

Sketch. Always wanted to draw something like this. Holding a katana. HAHA.

Speed paint. Azula from Avatar. I wanted to try out this colour mood.
Everyone painted her colours red but her flame is BLUE. So I wanted something different. She's as cold as ice but she burns like fire. Btw. Azula kicks ass. She's soooo bitchy. Also, she's the easiest to draw outta the lot. HAHA.

Quick sketch. Done during my part time job when I had some free time. HAHA!!
Supposedly a thank you piece for my pageviews on DA. T_T
