And of course not to forget the full sized version of Gordonator's mascot, also saved onto the Fan art section of the Gallery page, but accessible via here for now ^^/

...drawing of some scantily dressed girl eating ice cream during lunch time :P



This weekend it got rather hot, been feeling kinda dehydrated and hot while working from home =_=;;; Drank a lot of water, ate fruits and had ice cream ^^

Thankfully this evening is not too hot, last evening was just cookin!
I had to tweak her right eye a bit when I "inked" this out in Sai ^^ so in the end she doesn't look exactly like the sketch I drew ^^; And now that I look at it again I think I gotta fix the stick looks a tad long ^^; But hope ya all like her ^^/

Made a deal with the gordonator to draw his blog's mascot for one million dollars... (LOL)



Once in a while when I feel inspired (or need some extra cash on the side), I do take commissions for illustration work. Pricing varies with the amount of details, whether or not there's colouring, background involved, how soon it is needed -- meaning the the more work/less time given for me to finish = I charge more etc etc. I do commission work a lot less these days as I am quite busy with my work with cartoondollemporium.

I know some of my artist friends open"slots" every other month open to have people commission them to draw some artwork, but I have not really done anything like that just yet. Other than work based illustrations I would like to have time to draw my own drawings ^^; This is when I wish I have 3 more drawing arms to help me out :P

Okie I won't babble on ^^; Thanks for dropping by and have a great weekend :)

Was supposed to go out but there was some change of plans, so here I am doing some work and also finishing up the Babyblue artwork :3 Full view version is updated on the Colour section of Gallery page ^^

Labels: Bblue, Gallery, New art, photoshop, Sai, Update

Phew, another long week of flurry of busy-ness, managed to squeeze in some time to clean up Bblue's line art with Sai, should be hopefully colouring it in between work over the week (I hope)!



The initial line art, unfortunately have a buncha broken lines after scanning in higher resolution, so I was quite busy smoothing out the lines with Sai. I'm so glad Sai is a relatively small program and very easy to use for this purpose ^^! You probably can tell some differences in the comparison image above :3 Bblue is in the lead at the moment LOL! Thanks for participating in the voting!

Ahmin is kinda sad that she's last in line, I suspect it was because people may be concern that she is a "trap" but she's 100% girl okay! :P

I am aware of some of the feedback about my gallery and I'll be thinking about how to improve it over time, thank you for coming back and supporting this messy little gallery tho :) I think I may try to put some of the labels (example Fan art) on the side, to hopefully make it a bit easier for people who prefer to look at a bigger thumbnails with some ramblings with related blog posts ^^/

Which sections do you check out when you come here? Please comment if you will ^^!

Since I didn't scan this at a higher resolution, colouring this piece was faster than expected ^^; I had to clean up the lines in Sai first tho. When the file is larger (due to resolution) computer is sluggish in photoshop and sometimes not cooperative :P Full view in Gallery ^^/

Labels: Gallery, photoshop, Sai

Did a sketch and inked in pen of a sexy office lady, my computer is not cooperating with the scanner so I couldn't scan it at any higher resolution (grrrrr) Not sure if this is gonna turn into one of those artwork I won't colour :P



This sneak peek is actually cropped, so if I get to work on it somemore, I'll post again :)
Thank you all those who voted for Uchi! :D

Full version in Gallery :3 I guess this piece of artwork is somewhat suggestive, in comparison to a lot of my other artwork ^^; Really enjoyed using Sai to ink this piece of artwork! I end up colouring most of it in photoshop tho ^^;



One of my all time favourite Mangaka is Masakazu Katsura san, I dare say he was possibly one of the (in)direct influence to my evolving art style. I was presented 2 translated mangas of Video girl Ai in my teens by an aquaintance from a comic shop -- so touched as I really enjoyed the 2 books when I borrowed them at the time, but couldn't afford buying the whole set from my pocket money.

I really like how sensual and soft the females he draws, and I strive to become a fraction as good as he is ^^! Years ago, he used to have a website where I actually submitted a fan art to, but unfortunately it is not online anymore ;_;

My dearest friend Saka actually managed to meet Katsura in person during one of the anime conventions in USA and kindly got me a wonderful autograph from him (which I treasure!) Maybe I should try to scan that sometime :P
