Practice

Pewpew!

Splugh

Just brush practice.

Early July practice paints.

More practice rebuilding my digital painting mojo. Been focusing mostly on sketchbook stuff that I will post later.

Wallhax.

Strict brush limitations.

Composition/Layering.

Been watching a lot of Feng Zhu's videos on Youtube, particularly focusing on mindset matters. I certainly think it's a truism that here in Malaysia we generally have poor professional sense when it comes to design as a craft. Lately I've been attempting to spend more time consciously thinking as a designer outside work.

I will be giving a talk on July 17th at the Malaysian IGDA chapter apparently. Will try not to embarrass myself too much.

Got wood?

Ok I just had to pimp this work by a friend of a friend in the UK who is making these baddassed chairs.

This IS the seat you are looking for.

You gonna take it sitting down?

If you live in the UK and interested in getting your own you can hit up aforementioned friend-of-artist Paul on Facebook.

There are worse things-

-than waking up in the morning to find you made the Game App Of The Day on Kotaku ^v^

Delicious Wootcakes!

More trad!

Some perspective and composition practice and also some randomness. Ye olde markers need some getting used to again.

Sinix Design Lab Thumbs

The laptop I use at home isn't very fast at all so I don't like to paint on it much these days, to be honest I think it could run faster and the problem isn't so much that it's a crap laptop as the fact that Windows Vista is perhaps the worst operating system ever of all time.

Still, you know what they say about the metaphorical workman and his tools.

The theme for this lab was "Dragons", not a subject matter I have a lot of visual familiarity with. To get the ball rolling I decided to go with real animals as my inspiration and just jam with it. Results weren't too bad.

Community stuff is a good outlet for practice.

Even at this low res the response time of Photoshop was painful. Took me an hour to get these 3 down and I reckoned it was a good idea to cut my losses there.

Really need me a copy of Windows 7 heh.
