Moving On Animation - Character Concept 01

Here, have some concept art from my short.

What I ish upto....

Hmm it's been a while since I last updated...things have been busy at work and I didn't even have internet at home for nearly a month..so didn't get around to updating earlier. Anyway,

Rainy Lady Wip

Long time no wips XD So here's a picture I started recently.....it's a Rain Spirit....need to work on her character design some more. But it's supposed to be for that graphic novel idea of mine...hope I finish it up soon. As long as I don't get lazeh :I

Some thoughts...

I really should draw more often...and I shouldn't be afraid of them turning out bad...it's like a really lame vicious cycle...I have an idea or an urge to draw and then I try drawing something...it doesn't turn out nice..or not like how I wanted it to be...and I end up feeling lame. And then I don't feel like drawing much even tho I really want to draw....okay that makes no sense what so ever but see that's the paradox....I want to draw and yet this stupid thought that they might not turn out to my liking kinda kills my mood most of the times...So I'm going to let go of this stupid fear/worry/thought whatever you call it and just have fun drawing.....A crappy picture is better than no picture at all right? And the more I'll draw, the more better I'll get. Of course that's not to say if I keep drawing the same old girls all the flippin time I'll get any better at drawing other stuff...I want to get better at drawing in general so I can draw anything I want to draw any way I want to draw....not be restricted to drawing the same ol thing over and over again. That's not what I strive for. And there are all these things I  want to get better at....animation, cg(2D and 3D both), writing, programming, playin my guitar..etc etc a whole lot of other things...sure I can't be a master of em all, and I don't have to be. I love em and that is why I want to keep doing them always. I can't get better in any of them unless I stop being a lazy arse slacker of a kid....there are all these people who believe in me...and want me to be the best that I can be...I can't express in words how thankful I am to have such incredible people in my life......I'm sorry for bein such a lamo kid.... But yeah so from now I'll draw as much as I can, whenever I can....and practice animation and modeling/rendering at a regular basis....(well sculptin until my Maya at home starts workin :c) And most importantly have fun with em! Isn't that how it all started? Because they're all something I loved and enjoy playing around with? So yeah...I miss that...a whole effin lot...at the end of the day if I end up not doin any of these, I'm the one who's sadder....So yeah, time ta break free of all worries and negativities and let go...and keep moving forwards towards my own path and do my very best! Can't lose sight of my dreams and things I love....geez I'm such a dumbass at times..but yeah  it's time to be me again. And keep moving forwards and not stand still no more :I  Huzzah! I'll do my very best and make ya guys proud!

Mony teh kid over and out
Ciao fer now

And yet again I myself in the midst of another move...everytime I seem to get settled in a house we move to, it's time to move again! It's only been a year since I moved into our current house and yet tomorrow we move again.....How do I feel? Well tired is what...tired of moving. So often...But then again that's life for you and guess I got used to it....I'll quite miss my room, my balcony and the nice lantern and garden of the house opposite mine. It would stay lit for a good while during the night and it'd inspire me to think up fantasy stories and stuff...was pretty nice. We were supposed to move on the 26th, but my parents decided to move tomorrow...what is mental preparation :I

Oh well not much a kid can do really..gotta move on I suppose...

Well hope this move will be for the better. Hmm...

Anyway, moving on...

geez I've been slacking off so much....haven't made any full drawings, any animations nor any 3D models in the last coupla months....(although I do have some in the works...BUT NONE OF THEM ARE COMPLETE DAMMIT :I) Meh I really need to get a grip and work harder...MUST.NOT.SLACK.OFF. AAARR!!

But for now I gots ta run...need ta get some sleep -..-

G'night!
*runs off*

Yello!

Noodles is good yes? XD Maan I haven't updated in so long..but anyway it's mostly because of my laziness....

Anyway, today I watched treasure planet with my mum..it was really awesome! I was feeling pretty down these few days..like for no real reason. I'd get sudden bouts of sadness for no effin reason....and I was fine this morning, made myself a nice bowl of noodles ^ and was in a good mood and then suddenly what happened I dunno I felt like shit...urgh. So then I'm like screw this, I'm going to watch a movie with my mum since no one else was at home and she was free....so I watched Treasure Planet after wanting to for ages...Loved it! And I feel much better....also I feel inspired to really work on my story for my web comic...ya know the one that's been spinning around in my head for quite a while now....and it's been buzzing around in my head even more this past coupla days....so I gotta work on it or else I'll keep feeling lame...ehh it's an endless cycle I guess...maan why do I have to art block so bad? Just when I thought I was getting out of it I have to have another art block attack..well tell you what I ain't lettin it make me feel crappy anymore...I'm so sick of it...so I'm just going to work on my story and character designs....and also do fan art while I'm artblocking XD So first of is...Jim Hawkins! Whooo... and here have an old ass mouse drawn rapunzel fanart that I never finished....just because hah..

 And lookie here I has a daily doodle blog which I don't get around to updating daily...but I still update it from time to time..It's called Paper Nebulae

And here have a recently drawing picture that I ish kinda fond of:

Anyway, Moony over and out for now
Be back with some fanart stuff later..
Ciao!

Happeh New Yearr!!

Woo it be a new year already eh....well that was one hell of a year. While there were lotsa downs, there were lotsa ups too. So that kinda helped balance things and kept me from going nuts...seriously at times I felt like I was going to go nuts....But still it's a new year and while I did make some progress with my CG/drawing/modeling/lighting/animation skills....I have a LONG long longggg way to go. Aiyahhh...anyhoo so I've made some New Year's resolutions again. Well I'm not one who only believes in making resolutions at the beginning of the year, I mean I tend to make resolutions all throughout the year anyway...but I like setting some specific goals for me to work towards at the beginning of a year...it sort of serves as a guide you could say. Kinda like stepping stones xD

Here be my New Year's Resolutions for this year:

1) Save monehhhh (Super important)
2) Following up on the above resolution, buy a PS Vita 8D
3) Break out of my comfort zones in drawing (i.e draw all kindsa cool awesome stuff...like creatures, robots, backgrounds, cool characters)
4) Paint more finished pieces as opposed to just speedies or quickie tests XD
5) Get better at 3D modeling/rendering/texturing/lighting
6) Practice and get better at my 2D and 3D animation skills
7) Make a 2D and 3D animated short (was supposed to last year...but just didn't get around to it..)
8) Learn JAVA and Action Script
9) Work on my writing and story skills...write a story a week! (damn I had that last year and the years before too..gotta actually start doing it :I )
10) Draw a graphic novel (Yeah been wanting to for ages...thought I'd start it last year but hey atleast now it might look better than it would if I started then XD)
11) Make a demoreel (been wanting to for ages..)
12) Go traveling abroad (if I can save up enough :U)
13) Get better at poses and gestures
14) Play moarr gaaames :D
15) Be a strongwilled, brave and strong, cool kid XD Also a better person in general...And kick all the negative thoughts in the butts!
16) Enter the Expose call for entries!
17) Learn to play me guitar!

Well this year I'd like to actually get a graphic novel and some animated shorts done. Right so starting from now I'll be practicing animation and gesture drawing everyday!! YOSHH!! Also write a story a week...and um practice modeling and stuff on a regular basis...also draw time to get serious hah. Gotta push myself to be the best that I can be.....if I want to fulfill my dreams and prove myself! HYAHHH! Imma do my best!! Thanks a lot to my big bro and all my awesome friends for all their love, encouragement, kindness and support..it keeps this kid going. So yeah...LET'S DO THIS! Also gotta save up and buy that PS Vitaaaa. But more importantly I want to get better at my skills so I can create stuff the way I see them in my mind...yeah. Last year was mostly full of tests and experimentation when it came to drawing and stuff...this year I hope to be able to draw more complete stuff...and also break outta my comfort zone some more. Aaaah got so much to learn xD But I'll do me best! Aye!

 

And here's something I drew a while back..it's a quickie sketch that I did to test some lighting and rendering stuff....also Iris blur in Photoshop CS6 rocks!! So cool and fun to use xD This I drew in Photoshop CS6 with me intuos4. Got some more stuff in the works...will have to finish em up soon.

Well that's about it for now,Lol I got really hungry and I cooked something that's kinda like monjayaki XD Tastes kinda nice...maybe I'll cook it some more ha ha. My phone's outta charge or else I'd have taken a pikchar.

New year's day was nice, talked with some of my friends via skype call and drew cards for my friends from work and then played COD all day xD I even got a chopper the other day he he...that was really cool. Damn I love that game....ohh must play moar games heh.

But that's about it from me now
I gotta go now..gotta finish my meal heh.
G'night all
Ciao
