this is an exercise in "takes," where a character changes emotion. i have no idea why, but all the examples i've seen always has emotion that involves surprise...

i -still- can't color inside the lines



this is for an upcoming contest on DeviantArt. ("FEZ.")
I completely forgot about it and now I'm on a deadline for Friday... ;_;
(ps. i am so unbelievably out of shape--i haven't been drawing for a few days now!)
pps. the painting on the bottom one was the one i started first, and it took me longer than the picture above.funny thing is the one above took me 5 minutes. HAHA! this is not funny. i am not funny. obviously.

stop-mo animation: "Sad Sam"

This is for my "Physics of Animation" class. Thought I'd share it with the internets. (I originally named the poor fellow "Depressed Dan," but that's too much of a downer. lol.)

procrastinatin'

I'm not a big fan of daylight savings time...
especially if I have to turn the clock back.

illustrations for university magazine article

late night snacking, obviously

The article was about diabetes and the university student, but all I could picture were people in their middle/old age sticking needles of insulin into their bodies and poking their fingers for glucose tests. The majority of people in my mom's family is diabetic, my dad is diabetic, my maternal grandparents are diabetic... so I know fairly well what diabetes is about. None of it is fun...

paint tool sai draw #1

I downloaded the trial version of paint tool sai (a translated english version) and after one night fighting with it a couple nights ago, I finally figured it out and got comfy with it. Paint Tool Sai has a "watercolor tool," which I love, and is also featured in oekaki applets like "shi painter."I haven't a clue if a similar tool/effect is available in photoshop, and I'm kind of desperate for it.

I was stressing over my homework for no reason, so I just finished this little hoopty-tooty draw I did a couple days ago to de-stress:



(I really like this kind of hair-cut...
and maybe I should push the highlights more? sigh.)

HOW-DY!

I finally decided to make an art-oriented blog. There's going to be loads of digitally painted draws (hopefully) and I'm basically forcing myself to draw the ideas that constantly pop up in my head. For starters, I give you "RADIOACTIVE MAN!!" :
