Medoras dream

I can't believe I did not post this???

Anyway, here are a few color "thumbnails" (I don't know if I should call these color keys or something...).

Titania Final piece

I guess I can call it done...I'm sure I'll re-touch it before Fanime though :P It will be sold at the convention in may. I have a lot of new ideas and hopefully I also improved a little this semester! So I can sell some quality work next year :)

Ipod design

that was for a class...Medora floating, I'll update the sleeping titania too :)

There is a lot of stuff I want to draw and there is also a lot of things I still have to do...>< Its going to be a busy 2011 its my last year at the AAU.

anyway here is the ipod thingy

Queen Titania

Here she sleeps, cold death has taken her. Who was the one abandoned the lover or the loved one? Don't cry for her now it won't matter. She left never to be seen again and mankind is alone again in death and in darknes at the mercy of the lesser gods.

Kalte Nacht-Nyx

Falling through the sky with you

Recently done for my Illustration 3 class...Last round now, finals are starting!!

Medoras dream

Okay this is a short story about Medora having a crazy dream. I am doing short stories for all my characters. Its to explore relationships and flesh them out a little more but also hopefully have something for my portfolio in the end. I am quite happy so far but the more challenging pieces are yet to be colored....

Landscape

practice, trying to find what I want. Its not easy and I am going through a lot of fails right now :( trying to find myself in this mess (that sounds more emo than it really is :P) So sad, I kind of had to steall it from my own deviant site because we started in class and I had no chance to re-scan it. I thought I had to go through the humiliation of painting over my own watermark with the clone tool but deviant lets you edit the pic and remove it ^3^

character design

 Character design I've done just recently. I am learning new photoshop "things". Like how to make a light glow and stuff, its interesting but I still have a lot of trouble using the digital medium. Oh crap I have to do my online class >.< I almost forgot, again!

Emotional landscape thumbs

I have not been posting anything in a while...I was kind of exhausted since we moved to a new place. This new studio I have with my sister now is really nice :) I kind of like like it gives into a building valley as you look out the windows and not into the street. It feels more alive, the dogs and cats the kids and the mexicans having partys :P Also at night there are no cars or syrens. Usually people don't like that spot to live but I think its nice....Well then also I am not really normal...I guess???

redone page of Lioness manga

Marker this time! I like it much better this way. Eventhough my head hurts after inhaling markers all day long :)

Lioness pencil page

Watercolor and marker

This is a scene from the wolf and the 3 little pigs. The piglet is a girl and the wolf is a young man. It was a quite fun assignment.

Nyx watercolor

I honestly thought I posted it already yesterday...Hmmmm I'm getting old.....

I guess I do worry a lot these days. No wonder it is my last year at the academy afteral....starting soon.

I will need to get internship, a job to stay here. Can I say I don't want to leave? I don't think it matters. I have worked hard on myself but is it enough? I wonder what I'll be doing that same day, next year...(weird sentence, that same day will never return).

sketch

feeling lazy these days, but I am working on my Lioness manga :) that makes me happy!
So I am just going to post anything today :-P because I feel like it =3

Lioness more

Lioness

I will be posting those in a different folder on DA soon...Its too confusing to have them on here....

Here is an other page from my comic "Lioness" and some random panels where I tested some coloring.

Fun at Fanime!

Here are some pictures taken at the convention! We look terrible :D

My sister and Eve at work ^__~

    

Reuben Langdon was there for street fighter challenges and Jo Chen (she's amazing!)

                 

Eve cosplaying as Date Masamune. And yeeii us at our tables! (our Naga got sold out O_O)

         

Irys and I at their table and Ciaee!! The chick looks happy ^^

 

Preparing for AX

Fanime is over ToT (tears of paiiin). But AX is around the corner! Ihave never been there before so I am a little nervous >< at least I wont be alone, two other awesome artists will be joining me...Sadly number 3 and 4 cannot come...They will be flying back to their  home (Malaysia) for a while.

Anyway this is my character Mai, inspired by a friend of mine and snow white. She has a cyber/spider body to replace the parts she had lost as a whild beast attacked her. Her father used his Robotic spider to save her life... She uses bow and arrows and I thought about centaurs when I created her (for the way she would be connected :D

By the way, I am also on DA. I did not really use it that much before but I plan to now ^__^

Fanime!!

Fanime this year was really different. This year I was selling prints with my sister and some of my friends, it was exciting since it was my first time selling at a convention!

We all really had a great time, met other artists, learned a lot and we sold surprizingly well :D That made me really happy. So, If anyone who bought our art reads this: Thank you for supporting my art (and my wallet =P) I love you all ><

I was really sad when it was over (and it was sooo fast O__O) I felt like we just arrived at fanime, and because we were selling we really didnt get to do stuff that much.

But even if we didn't go to a lot of panels and other things, just being there and around the "nerdy" people, I felt really happy and home. I always feel like I want to stay at Fanime forever ^^  This is one of the main reason why I love it soooooo much and I always look forward to it...We all come there...gather to be together and just enjoy what we love so much like a kind of family. No body cares if you are being stupid or what ever you can just really be comfortable. I am actually reeeaaallly shy but for Fanime I actualy went on stage 0 and danced stupidly (hell I cant dance! >.>) But it was fun and everyone laughed a lot (at me...and the otherones who took that terrible decision ^o^ ).

Anyway I hope everyone enjoyed it that much!

my comic Lioness page 3 and 4

Original Lioness

Here is my project for Perspective (Joko's class)...Finally.
I can't believe there is no more deadline...Its all over. Anyway this project was one of the most fun assignments so far. It was fully up to us, the story, characters, concepts everything.

I chose to treat it as a game I'd love to make. Lioness Origin, happens prior to my comic "Lioness" and obviously its about the crisis that came with her birth. Since she was born in a world of mighty gods (a la god of war) she is hunted by those gods. Many want her dead, since she will end the reign of the gods (the child that was not supposed to be).

The story starts with my maincharacter Joringel waking up in this dark place only lit by a mysterious Lantern infront of him. He also finds a baby girl in his lap...Thats when he rememberes that he has been saved by the goddess Simbajike (his whole family/clan had been chassed and aparently killed by King Thoron). The goddess tells Joringel that there is still hope for him, to save his family but he has to accept her quest. Joringel has to bring the infant to the wretch (a witch) living far away, hidden on an island protected from gods.

The different pages show characters and Stages within the game.

Inside the book, some pages of the story and characters

I

Zakir!

The hunter again! He is from Leann's story "Shangrila". This piece was a colaboration which I first was very frustrated with, it just didn't turn out the way I expected or hoped it would untill we thought "lets try some crazy colors!" and it worked out...I am really happy with the result.

here is one of several pieces (we tried different moods). For more variations and information on this piece, please visit Leann's blog (under my LOVERS links ^_~)

Delirium

Two piece work...Well I liked the mood of both the pieces so I decided I'd make both. I was listening to a song when I came up with this concept...Most work I do are born through music.
This piece is showing my Pandora, her inner turmoil. She betrayed the gods and payed a heavy price together with her father Hephaestus .

More of Joringel!

I did a more closeup version of Joringel sleeping...I wished I could spend all of my time on this project. I like the concept and the characters very much, it is not just some shallow work just done to satisfy an assignment. It is about a story I really care and love...I hope I'll be able to work more on it...

Some lines are too much, it makes it look a little blurry in some parts, I will work some more on it and update it once done...I always get too excited about work I like, and I want to put it on this blog immediately! I don't know if thats a good thing ^__^

Nyx closeup!

Here is a closeup of Nyx, it is also more refined...For some reason I really want to eat this head!

Here comes dollface, it can only be summoned by one who made the pact. Creeping out of  the pit of tartarus it claims the lives of any being even gods.

Dolface

A preview of something I am working on...Its the most frustrating week ever and this work was frustrating as well...

                                                                                       

The Female Lion (Goddess Simbajike)

She gave Joringel the baby and the Lantern (key to Nyx). She also was the one saved Joringel from greedy king Thoron, as he whiped out Joringels creator and siblings (as well as his beloved Jorinda).
