Reimu Taimu 楽書き

I'll finish this when I get home @w@ I actually finished Madoka, with an anti-climactic background XDww heheh - I really need to work on BGs =w=;;

hmm, Reimu seems lonely - so I added Marisa XDww though she's not so happy about it @w@;;

on another note .. Madoka's drawing is better than mine @w@ !!!!!!!!!! XDww I love it !!

and so .. I added Patchouli on top of Marisa's head XDww just to annoy her more @w@ww

Patchy looks better now @w@;;

got impatient and went on coloring chibi Patchy first @w@

Marisa seems happier now that she's colored XDww adjusted some parts @w@;; will continue laterz

yandere reimu @w@ !!

colors brings life to the CG especially when you do the eyes ^w^ this prolly what makes me happy about CGing @w@

Kud (AIR 06.5)

day ??:

finally submitted it XDw <3

day 3:

I suck at drawing flowers >w< drawing them one by one for the BG, basing it on a picture I found on the net XDww you could already see the colors I've done for Kud ^^/ she looks pretty alive now XDw <3

花を描くのは苦手なんですの＞ｗ＜ネットで見つかった写真を参考いただいて、BGの花を一つづつ描くになりました＾＾今のところもう色を入れましてやっとクドの命を見えてきました

drawing the skirt pattern is always better than using PS' pattern maker XDw

PSのパッタンメーカを使うよりパッタンを描くの方がもっと良いだと思う

A. I. (Anime Illustration) reflections episode 1

It's been a while since I published something outside. I guess I'll try to start with something that I am doing recently ^w^

This doodle started out when a friend of mine posted a contest for his blog mascot XDww Unfortunately she wasn't recognized at first sight so I am claiming her now as my own and call her "Ran-chan" (Ran as in "Random" XD). Well it really can't be helped because I have tweaked many parts of the original design, and ended up with a style that suited my taste ^w^

I started out with rough lines, outlining the overall shape of the pose. It didn't really mattered if the proportions as right .. I just want to curve out what the overall feel would look like XD Afterwards I started inking bolder lines which define the shape and details ^w^ I maintain the lines in 2 to 3 layers and merge them as soon as possible, making it more manageable in the process XD In the past I have tons of layers that contains the final lines - like lines for the hair, lines for the clothes, etc XDww Now I'm doing it the lazy method and manage all lines in one layer (taught by my friend XD).

Painting was a breeze XD Compared to cel shade, you don't really have to care if some of the colors smudge outside the lines ^w^ Having a shot at this style will really explain to you why some people can manage to come up with CGs in just a matter of 3-4 hours XD (mine took 30 minutes - and it still looks bland TwT). What I have done on this is use different shades on painting (well that's normal I guess). I have played around the marker density while applying the colors, and it produced nice results XD

Well, I'll post another CG tomorrow hopefully ^w^
