Why, hello there! I know it's been ages! I picked up my Col-Erase literally for the first time in 2 years or so, it feels so good to be back on the desk though. I'm still in the tropical island for those who wonder. It's been more than 4 years and counting, which surprises me more than anyone else as I myself never thought of staying here for a such a long time. Noriko and I also got our first Atsushihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01330084046008007290noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18595800.post-88716420877633526742011-04-29T19:31:00.000-07:002011-04-30T23:13:53.602-07:00Winter Hat.Doodle of the day.
I found this software called MyPaint the other day. It's quite simple and it's free! I especially like the feature of having unlimited amount of space when it comes to the paper size, so that I don't have to set up the paper size before start sketching nor adjust the paper size due to the size of the sketch ending up bigger than expected.Atsushihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01330084046008007290noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18595800.post-40209551883381142222011-03-18T19:47:00.000-07:002011-03-18T19:47:21.271-07:00Me 2011Doodle of the day.Atsushihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01330084046008007290noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18595800.post-56984082594339469892011-02-09T05:14:00.001-08:002011-03-18T19:47:36.171-07:00TotemDoodle of the day.Atsushihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01330084046008007290noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18595800.post-50008300207768902852011-02-04T17:28:00.001-08:002011-03-18T19:47:50.595-07:00Spoonfed.Doodle of the day.Atsushihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01330084046008007290noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18595800.post-69840867871593121652010-11-24T07:52:00.000-08:002010-11-26T17:32:29.522-08:00Choose a cat, Draw a girl.Howdy bloggers!

I'm actually quite surprised to see it's been a year since I did last post. To be honest, I felt my sketches were getting worse and worse, not in terms of draftsmanship or technique but style. I always felt that I was just reproducing what's been done by someone else, not creating something by my own.

He always gives me such an exciting ideas to work on. After spending few hours drawing almost uncontrollably, I was surprised to notice it's so easy to draw when we got some inspiration going around in my head.

I'm going to Singapore to join the team of Clone Wars. Since this is not a contract job like I used to have, the move I'm making is relatively bigger than previous one. I'm coming with Illusion of Life and all that stuff. So it's tough.

I was trying to get back to the world of painting since I've noticed I haven't done any of it in last few years. I put those roughs here mainly because this could be a good chance to get some opinions from people. I'm trying to get the style that I can work with for relatively longer term, that means I don't have to worry about painting style when I'm thinking of character's detail.

First I tried it on DS Animanatee found at Goro's blog. Then I found the software is having trouble with saving file with some colors in it. So I switched into Flash.
