So...... I Revampted The Gift For My Sifu

Yeah..... after my mom saw my last version, she complained that the writings are too ugly and the face should be a bit wider.  So I'm like ok, it's easy to change things around because it's done digitally.

Then I opened the program only to find out I overrite the photoshop file with the jpeg file.  Basically I forgot that after I choose save as... it still work off the photoshop file.  So I clicked save thinking I'm saving the jpeg file (which I used for posting the pic 2 days ago).

In short I got royally screwed over with a flattened image.  So today I have to trace over the old drawing to make a new one, good thing this actually didn't took too long.  Though i find the new drawing kind of mmmm...... too wimpy bitchy looking.  Doesn't quite have the same PAW in your face feel as the original one.  And my mom doesn't want the writing any fatter, she want it more "proper" looking.  But I don't know... at this point I'm just too tired, so I guess I'll leave it.

On a side note, it's Halloween in 2 days.  My friend invite me over to her house for a sorta halloween get together.  But I'm still not sure what to wear as my costume.  Kinda broke lately doesn't want to buy costume so that would mean I need to be creative with what I have at home...  mmmm I'll dig into my closet tomorrow and see what I have.  Worst comes to worst I'll just grab feathers from my pillow and stuck it to my back and call myself Jay Chou as my Halloween costume or something....

Gonna sleep earlier for once (earlier... relative term lol).

Goodnight !

Late CN Tower Stair Climb Report

Well me and 2 of my friends went to the CN tower stair climb this year.  It was on Saturday (4 days ago) and I've been busy since so didn't have time to write or draw something about it.

So yeah, when we got there there were a group of fun boys that are super ultra excited about the climb.  They all are super energetic (it's freaking 9 in the morning on Saturday) and wear the shortest shorts mankind have ever invented.  They also seem to have a good time when they security check people are touching them with the metal detectors.  They manage to got up there around the same time as us so we come down in the same elevator again, haha personally I think they were funny but my friend were grossed out by it because she thinks they shouldn't raise their arm up all the time (maybe it's sweaty or maybe it's arm pits or maybe it's both?).

As for the drawing, personally I think it's quite fail was trying colouring with sketchbook pro, and the colour wheel feels weird.  Maybe I need to stop testing stuff cuz I always think it's fail.
-_____-||  <-- fob fail face

But anyway..... trying a bit of different style everyday (lol that's my excuse for bad drawing).  Though I'll admit I was thinking for a lot of different drawing ideas but not too sure to go with which.  Generally I want to draw something with more of a story to it though by the time I figure out it was too late at night so I end up rushing again haha.  So yeah..... oh well..... no comment.....

Goodnight !

Finally Almost Done

So as promised I finished the drawing that's suppose to be a gift for m wing chun teacher.  This is the first time I try to do something like this, so I'm not exactly satisfied with it.  Find I probably would have more control if I used an actual brush (I did it on photoshop instead).  I might still play around with it a bit until Friday before I print it out put it in a frame and give it to my sifu.

At least this time I didn't leave it till the absolute last min so I guess I do have time to change or adjust things if I want to.  The background I used is a fake paper, in real life I'd actually have to find a paper that colour and then print it on that.  I did a test on construction paper i found at home except it keeps giving my printer paper jam.  So I'll see....

In any case, I broke my record of sleeping late.  This is horrible and feels like school all over again "oh shit have to pull an allnighter to finish this assignment" lol.  But like I said at least it's done and i still have time to fix it.  Now I'm gonna go enjoy my sleep without worries wooohoooooo ~

Goodnight ! Goodmorning !

LOL Semi Cheating Today

So this Friday is the last class for the Wing Chun martial art I've been taking.  12 sessions and once per week, so it's been 3 months since I've been taking it and it's finally reaching an end.  So my mom want me to draw something for the sifu as a parting gift.

Ok so I did draw something for it today, except it's super rough and as a general rule, only Andre can understand Andre's rough drawings.  So I'm not gonna bother posting it because it's just gonna look super weird and doesn't make sense and ugly looking.  It will be done in one or two days anyway so I'll just show the final when it done.

But since you came here I guess you'd expect to see some pictures (yeah art students doesn't read, I know).  So I'm just gonna post something from before to fill the spots for today haha.  Here it is, it's a drawing I did last year as practice for the cut and paste design contest.

The idea of the contest is that you're suppose to do your design live on the big screen in 15 minutes, so the audience can see how you did it as part of the experience.  So essentially, you need to be able to start from scratch and finish it within 15 min, therefore it's kind of impossible to have something too crazy.  In anycase, my topic was "bliss", so this is the piece I did.

lol and again I'm fail sauce at sleepying early, so here we go, goodnight, and goodmorning for those who cared ~

Omg I fail today....

I'm suppose to post one drawing a day, but I guess I slacked off today -_______-

Been a crazy weekend, Friday I did martial art class then slept over at friend's house.  Saturday woke up early to go to CN Tower stair climb, pacific mall, friend's birthday dinner, bar, bubble tea, got home at 3 AM.  Sunday woke up early again to get gardening stuff, then family grocery shopping, overall didn't get much sleep so after i got home I just end up doing nothing.

Well.... not exactly nothing, so I just watched Nick And Norah's Infinite Playlist to relax.  A pretty nice feel good cute comedy type of movie.  Too bad I watched it myself that's kind of sad though I guess it's alright because I felt like I can relate to the main character and I learned something from it.  That and Kat Dennings is really cute in that movie LOL.  Though despite those reasons I'd still recommand people to watch this, and I'm glad I picked this over Bleach Movie 3 or Fast and Furious 4 haha.  (Yes I know my movie choices are very random and non-related but those are the ones I have at the time)

In anycase, I need to finally get some real good night sleep, so for today I apologize I gotta post some non-drawing but I promise I'll post something cool again (I hope).  So goodnight, and goodmorning ~

Still experimenting....

So today is the 2nd day that I start drawing again... still playing around with autodesk sketchbook pro.  Find I'm slowly getting used to it but there's still a lot of room of improvement.  Good thing not too many people read my blog anyway (if any at all... lol).

In any case, so i did a 4 panel comic today just for fun, I always think about funny scenarios so I'll probably draw more of that here and there.  Though the issue i find today is that sketchbook pro doesn't have any text editing tools, so I just drew all the letters by hand (ghetto style).

Haha my friend will probably hate me for drawing this because she hates scary stuff.  It's also really messily drawn but it's 3:54 AM now so I really should sleep so I'll just leave it.  Should really stop drawing last minute ultra late at night -______-||

Starting again.... I hope

So...... I didn't keep my promise on the last post, I hope I can keep the promise this time and actually start posting more often now ahahhahahha.

Anyway.... so a friend suggest me to do a drawing a day for the next 7 days (by suggest I mean life threats lol).  So I installed Sketchbook Pro the other day, I think I'll start drawing a bit each day and see how that goes.

Day one, not too used to the program yet so I didn't draw much also this first drawing is kinda ghetto -_______-  but it's 3:42 AM I'm really tired so I'll just post it so I won't get killed tomorrow.  Here it is..... lol
