Project: Lord of the Flies Thing...

Just some school work.

For English, we're reading Lord of the Flies. Since that unit has come to an end, it's time for our big project! We're given a choice as to such. My partner and I (or really, more like just I) chose a pretty simple one: draw a snapshot of a character, and just explain the artistic techniques and such used and what it symbolizes. Since my partner couldn't draw, and I intended to do so anyways, I did everything.

Not a bad thing necessarily, because then I know this art piece has met my standard of art! Hopefully, this would rake in some marks, because I need that desperately.

After some turmoil, we finally settled on the character to be Ralph. (Really, it was more like I was being forceful and making it go that way, lawl)



Sketch.


Final CG!

Yeup, pretty much it. I spent an assload of time working on the final CG, but I'll save that for another time. I'll probably talk more about this technical stuff and the whole process of making it when I upload it on dA, but right now, I do not have the time to do either.


Made in openCanvas, like many of my other CGs.

Prepare for the most beautiful pieces of art you will ever lay your undeserving eyes on

Behold! My kindergarten – grade 1! I swear, it’s the most amazing things I’ve ever done.


What kid growing up in the 20th century not love Pokemon? And what kid doesn’t show their love for something through fanart? But I had to take it to a whole ‘nother level: OCs.




Check out that awesome Mewtwo story I wrote there too in grade… 1, I’m assuming. This is how Pokemon the Movie should have ended.
I swear, I need to get this published.


I guess that means it’s your fate to suffocate.


Sexy.

Yes, you can thank me now for being so nice!

Christmas 2009 Gifts: Rosuto, Takara, and Akina Shrinky-Dinks

The title says it all, really. xD
A month ago, I was thinking about what would be a cool gift for my friends. I wanted to do something cool, like what Rosuto does every year. Maybe a clay figure? But I suck with that. Maybe a plushie? I don't have enough felt, let alone the skillz to make 'em. Looks like I could only draw something... and that's what I did.
Hurray for Shrinky-Dinks!

It's weird, no one really has them in stock anymore for some reason. I check Toys R Us, but alas, they had none. I had to go over to Michaels to get a pack.
Why are they so expensive too?

So, yeah. These 'aint your grade 2 craft time Shrinky-Dink creations. No, these are some pimped up Shrinky-Dink charms. I drew out every picture on 4.5x6 cm rectangles, since they shrink to 1/3 their size. I even left some space for the place where I'd punch holes in the paper, so after baking, I could loop these metal loops you'd find connecting charms that break off easily so they can be proper charms. But before that part, I'd spray some varnish on the finish thing. It looks nice that way - that is, if you don't mess up.

I present you with the sketches, as the Shrinky-Dinks themselves are already given away. The sketches aren't coloured either, but I'll give you the reference pic so you can imagine. Imagination is such a virtue. :D
