In the aftermath

"Aftermath" by Adam Lambert playing on repeat inside my head!


I haven't posted my artwork for a really long time (the last post was an Osprey right?). Had my first free day in months today - after finishing that horrible, traumatic piano exam of mine - and i didn't know what to do. Entertained the thought of exercising and doing something active to offset my gain in weight over the months mugging for my piano exam. But unfortunately - or fortunately, depending on how you look at it - i was tasked with designing costumes for my USP OG's pageant! The first set was Mulan-themed for a guy and girl, so i basically took reference pictures off the net and customized the colours and materials myself :)

Enjoy!






And since i'm in the midst of posting, might as well post up some other artwork which has been hanging in cyberspace (begging to be posted) for a while now!

Some cards i made for my friends' birthdays/blogshop projects recently:

This card was for my Gu Ma's friend (RIP Gu Ma) 
and she ordered it from my blogshop :)

 For Stacey's birthday :D


For Aunty Pat, also ordered from my blogshop.

Magnificent

My new favourite raptor - the Osprey!


The Osprey is otherwise known as a "water eagle" and 99% of its diet consists of fish! It has waterproof wings that enables it to dive all the way into the water and snatch fish from the seabed. HOW AWESOME IS THAT.

A bottle of lemon juice

Because i haven't touched watercolours for more than 2 weeks,i started with something simple today.
Only annoying things are that 1) it's out of proportion (blame my drawing) and 2) i took 1 hour to paint black over white and white over black for the font ._.

Pondering...

Wondering if i should take pictures of the manga drawings that i did in my sketchbook :/ 
They're far better than the noob ones i've posted thus far,but it's so...troublesome!

Under the sea

A painting dedicated to my friend (you know who you are)!


Flounder from "Little Mermaid" :) In water colour,of course. 
The sea background was quite badly done,but i don't know how to paint something to look like water yet,so forgive me!


Enjoy :D

The masterpieces

As the title suggests,these are probably the sketches i'm the happiest with! They're not fantastic or anything,but they are personal favourites :) These are real-life sketches/fine art, as my teacher used to call them! Enjoy :D


1.These two pictures of the cross and candle respectively were drawn for a Lent booklet! Personally,i really like the creases i drew on the cloth! The people are a bit awkward but i didn't know how people in Jesus' time looked from the back :D





2.This is a picture of a blue jay,a...blue bird.

3. A pair of fluffy dogs! I copied it from a calendar! Till this day,i still don't know what breed they are. I think they might be shina ibus or really,really fluffy japanese spitzs.


4....AND *drumroll* THE MASTERPIECE. Okay,it isn't anything much,but it's possibly the most detailed drawing i've ever done in pencil. It's a dragon from the cover of a book by Naomi (something.). I was competing with my brother and really outdid him in the end :)
Ignore the drunk mushroom below.


Count the cars that pass by

I'M ON A ROLL :D


Just some of my old manga drawings that have already been scanned into the system. Would be a waste if i didn't display them somewhere. 
When i have the time,i'll probably photograph the ones that i'm more pleased with :) Stay tuned!


They're all rough scans, so pardon the quality or the crooked-ness.


1.An original design. I designed this "scorpion bankai" for my best friend in 2008! Inspired by Bleach. Left it face-less because i was afraid drawing anything there would ruin it.



2.Compilation sketch of photos from "Spiral Alive" and "Double Arts"! Also sketched in 08'.


3.Random Santa-nita (yeah,i made that term up) for Christmas! Sketched in 2008.


4.Terrible,weird looking picture i drew for a friend's birthday,since he was a fan of Zelda and Pokemon. I don't even know why i uploaded this O_O Sketched in 2006 (CHART THE IMPROVEMENT.) When i was still using colour pencils *shudder*
