46. Portrait

W.I.P.
one of my midnight doodle before going to sleep.

learning how to paint human skin and trying to get better at lighting. 

it still looks kinda stiff to me.

45. Cat's secret

An art-trade with lunecute aka fransiska, my classmate.

She requested a purple cat while I asked her to paint me an alien.

It's my first art-trade with friends. Apparently it's very motivating and enjoyable.

Done in Photoshop. Can't remember the time spent, but I guess it was around 3 to 4 hours. It's the fur that took long time to paint, but it was real fun!

I want more art-trade!~ haha

44. Dr OcHa (OC) - Character Design

~ a fast doodle of 'he who declares to be the one who loves green tea most',

Dr OcHa~

~ He's a cute doctor that can't stop expressing his love for

the famous tea from Japan ~

Now that I've graduated from my Degree Course,

I have more time to sketch more characters.

Gonna update this blog with more doodles soon =)

43. Exhibition Panel

It's done!!! It's finally done!!! so I just had my Degree graduation show and finished my graduation project just few hours before the exhibition started. I'll upload the animation video soon and post it here, but for now I'd like to post a picture of our exhibition booth. I forgot to take a pictures of the printed panel (but I think my team mate did), so for now here's the panel we created.


I just had my final presentation today too. I was super nervous, so did my teammate, but then we had done our best and we enjoyed most of the progress (even though I had to admit, days of sleepless night did make me a bit grumpy. But I love it! I'm super satisfied with the result too (even though I know there is a huge room for improvement, but with this limited time, I know we had done our best ;)

42. UFO and the city

"and so the aliens land on the earth..."

I so love the reflection on the UFO.

I textured the UFO with a totally different style before but my lecturer told me it's nicer to keep it simple, so I keep it clean and shiny.

41. Boo

Here's the update from the character I posted last time.

He's one of the character from my final animation project.

I realized I never said anything about my final project story. Well, it's, in short, about:

"two aliens (Boo and Pee) who are on mission to assemble a weapon to attack earth."

No spoiler for the ending though ;p

Meet Boo the Alien.

Boo and some of his Facial rig controllers.

Boo and the mad rigs controllers and bones.

I know those rigs and its controllers may cause you headache. haha.

I followed PolyFace tutorials for the rig. Awesome tutorials!

Base mesh is done in maya before I then import it into Zbrush to sculpt and color.

Texture is done in both Zbrush and Photoshop.

40. Aliens

Some alien sketches I did for school graduation project (Degree graduation).

I'm going to create a short animation for this project, and it's in 3d. So here's one of the main characters. It was an individual project at first but then a friend asked to join in and we do my story together. It was really fun.

and below is how he looks in zbrush.

I did some changes on his head and I'm still going to re-topo this model.

I'll post more sketches and paintings in the future. May be some screenshots of the 3d props too~
