Happy 2012!!

2012-01-13T23:54:00.000-08:00

My first post for the new year!! Yay.. My wish for this year, related to the blog, is to be more productive than ever, and have more posts than last year.. Here is some random illustrations that I colored with color pencils, which I rarely do.

I know it is a bit late but...

2011-12-30T02:01:00.000-08:00

In the spirit of Christmas, I'll post this anyway... The cupcake was homemade, made by a friend of mine..

Packaging and Logo Design for Bird Nest

2011-12-12T05:03:00.000-08:00

I think I did this back in 2009. The upper one is the original design I came up with. The second picture is the final design on logo, and the last picture is the final packaging design.

The Rare Bird and the Girl

2011-12-12T04:26:00.000-08:00

Just practicing coloring on one of my doodles. I am happy with the result. Did this couple months ago actually.

Wedding Invitation

2011-12-08T00:08:00.000-08:00

This is a mock up for friends' wedding invitation. The groom seems to like wine so I decided to make the design based wine bottle box.

Happy Holidays!!!

2011-11-28T01:20:00.000-08:00

Just did this for fun.. Chrismas is coming, and I am excited as usual. Less decorations on public places here in Semarang, Starbucks outlet is one of the places adorned with Christmas stuff. So, here is its red cup and what i thought will be cool if really happens...

2011-09-02T09:39:00.002-07:00

Here is one sided simple CD cover I did for a friend...

Monster Short Preproduction part6

2011-05-27T03:22:00.000-07:00

Here are some of the backgrounds that I have uploaded. After finding out that these are still problematic, I corrected it. I add one last background which will be in the first scene in the short.

Monster Short Preproduction part4

2011-05-18T12:20:00.001-07:00

Hmm does it look like it belongs to the same set?

Monster Short Preproduction part3

2011-05-18T07:49:00.000-07:00

This is one scene that I feel still a bit awkward because of the lighting. In this scene, the character will enter the dark space with a electric lantern on his hand... Im leaning toward the bottom one right now..

Monster Short Preproduction part2

2011-05-18T07:38:00.000-07:00

Just like the title.. part2, I have 20 ish background that I need to make in Illustrator, I think..

Monster Short Preproduction part1

2011-05-18T07:15:00.000-07:00

Recently I saw this ad on one of the national tv channel about this animation festival, for anim shorts.. I have decided to go for it.. if time allows... Here is the backgrounds for the short I have made back in my college years.. Ive been terrible at coloring. I would like to thank S.A. my bestie who gave me tips, help for the coloring...

The elongated one is for panning, right to left.

So I didn't keep my promise last year....

2011-05-16T12:45:00.000-07:00

I have made a promise to myself in 2010 that i would keep up with my drawings and postings and I didn't do that. But recently I am picking up my pencil and wacom tablet pen once again, so here is one piece that I've did for one of my best friend's daughter 's 1st birthday... With this, I got the motivation to learn illustrator for the first time.

Fashion Illustration

2010-07-13T09:19:00.000-07:00

I did this back on my school years... for a lady who was in the process of creating an online company.

3D Modeling

2010-02-07T22:45:00.000-08:00

Witch House

2010-02-07T22:44:00.000-08:00

This is meant for panning down movement of the camera.

Sanctuary

2010-02-07T22:41:00.000-08:00

Santa's Series

2010-02-07T22:35:00.000-08:00

These are the sketches for a series about Santa's Headquarter in North Pole: (from top to bottom:) Elf's Everyday Buffet, Santa's Hidden Little Town, Sleigh Loading , and Santa's Mail Room. The two top ones are still in planning stage.

Once Upon A Time in China

2010-02-07T21:59:00.000-08:00

Once Upon A Time in China... The original drawing for this was pretty different. I was meaning to draw an old school Chinese drug store. I thought it would be interesting since a lot of Asian people grew up watching these kinds of movies: a happy but poor chinese boy, who is an underdog (and has a wicked stepmother), that turns out to be really talented at martial arts and be a hero in the end.

Junkyard Restaurant

2010-02-07T21:44:00.000-08:00

Another unfinished piece for my background pf. The below one with the value study had a line and compositional problem so i fixed it. Along with other pieces in my portfolio, this is queuing to get colored (and to be given mood) properly.

Tree House

2010-02-02T23:43:00.000-08:00

This is the final draft of one of my background piece, titled Tree house. I originally did this for a sequential piece below... I will color this -_-', not like below

2010-01-24T22:44:00.001-08:00

No luck with the lotto this time! Dang-eed

The Arch in the Sky, after the rain :)

2010-01-22T19:24:00.000-08:00

Oh well this is 28.95% artificial, since i also enhance the color of the rainbow. It was more beautiful than that though. My BB camera was not able to capture that :( and my stupid memory card is still sticking in my laptop at home,

OOoohh gotta buy lotto before 12!!

Cold Rainy Days

2010-01-22T14:17:00.000-08:00

Wow... It has been raining since Sunday. As long as I remember, LA's weather has never been like this. Just like the monster, I want to keep warm and dry. ZzzZzzzzzZZZZZzzzzZZZZ.....

Artist's Book

2010-01-14T23:35:00.000-08:00

Here are some pages from my Artist Book, made for an Illustration class. The book is about life according to me. I filled the pages with what I think matters in life, what I seek, and yes that is including the buying power of visa. :D

Commited

2010-01-14T23:30:00.000-08:00

As part of my commitment to my 2010 resolution, I will try my hardest to keep this blog alive. This is a great way to start drawing again!

2007-05-30T17:48:00.000-07:00

Here are some of my background layout for Cliff's class. Both should be done in tonal study but as you can see, the tree hut is barely finished. There is no light and shade whatsoever...
