Old paper work : one of my early design character

I found this in my work file. It's quite nostalgic as well as tragic to look at this piece.

I can't remember clearly why I designed this "monstrosity", like a man who looks back at his fanfiction in young age and went super cringe. 

But I faintly remember that I used to have quite a big dream back there in college, something something about making a press or something? Well, it didn't matter now. Like - why should I worry about my past? I barely remember anything about my pa...

Driving away (Draft)

A completed linework at last! I though this is going to be a failure, but I did it anyway. Still need to add some speed effect though.

Tips : In case that you don't know which object or scene you want on your paper, just sketch it first. 

Sketching Aka. draw some random things or a faint picture in your mind. Mostly it works.

Biter Hybrid (Draft)

Polishing it a bit to make this work better, or being more curse. I can't wait to see a group of people trigger by this, but hopefully there will be none.

Tips : Time is one of the greatest resource to make an artwork better. More time you invest it in, the better the work will be. But there is a change it wil not turn out well though.

Two Mercenary Engineer

Commissioned by /rChobobro. 

I can't contact them, so I need to make the work public. I need to say sorry in advance if they want to make the work as private...

But this is a very good work for me. I hope there are more commissions for me to do in the future!

To be honest, I HATE Valentine's day.

Factorio Badge 2 (Draft)

Making more badges today. Even though my vocation had turned into a disaster and my brother just lost his job, I'm trying to be positive here. I can't let my mood interrupting my job. There is commissions to be done (sorry I can't show you guys the progress here, I need to keep it extra secret) and there is mouths to feed. I need to work more!

Tips : Stress is one of the greatest enemy of artist apart from sleepiness, ran out of idea, hunger, poverty, weather and loneliness. 

Result from vocation

Going on vocation is a good time to draw something - either by memory or observing. Anyway, I'm back!

Quick Note : Why is Anime dominated by "cute" girls? (Part 2)

Apart from  previous reasons, I would like to talk about how I thought about the issue.

The reason why anime is filled with cute girls is pretty obvious - It's easy to made them, there are a huge market for them, there is no licence of them, there is no competitor of them, and they are very adaptable.

Every western animation and cartoon character (Pixar, Disney, or whatever), despite for l...

Tips : Try to immitating another artist style can be a good exercise too!

Little Secret (Draft)

The drone is fixed. It's take me awhile there before this work is finished. It's a little bit of secret.

Little Gear 1 (+download PNG)

I have an idea today. I should make some PNG of Little Gear and her friend and give them to my patrons! These PNG can be used as a sticker as they can be copy and paste every where.

Maybe I should make more PNG image and give away to any patrons who see it as useful. It's not much but it is something I can do, for now. 

So feel free to use any of my PNG from now and so on!

Summary of January 2020!

This is a good month so far! I might have some troubles in my real life but everything is fine and dandy.

However in this month, I shoud never forget to thank all Patron who keep support me in such beginning and hard time. Thank you for supporting my career everyone!

Common drawing tips (Paper, Pencil, Eraser)

If anyone want to draw anything on paper with pencil, I can give some advice here.

General :

• Always keep your hand clean and dry. 

Dirty and wet hands will ruin your work as many people will rest their drawing hand on their drawing paper. Unless you keep your hand afloat which pretty uncomfortable.

• Practice make perfection.

If you hate to practice, just draw it regu...

Quick Note : Why is Anime dominated by "cute" girls? (Part 1)

Disclaimer : Sorry, I can't show you a sample here.
Warning! : Gross content, don't read while you are eating, before or after.

This morning when I'm working around cleaning my yard I remembered something - that Japanese comic industry (or anime) - isn't the thing we see it today. Where big tiddies and butt girls can be seen everywhere.

To be honest, anime used not to be all about anime girls. The artists used to be really sk...

Old work : Exhibit 2

I risked one of my old work in order to get a clean shot of one. This paper is very old and fragile, but the work is still intact like the day it was done. 

This is a reason why I choose a cheap pencil over an expensive pen. Pencil lines are not reacted to water, hot air, humidity, unless you shred the paper of course. Regardless of quality, cheap paper and pencil can make something, and it's durable, required less care, and resilient. I would recommend them, 10 outta 10.

Chibi Card (Draft)

Finally done! No more weird looking leg - arm Chibi! She looks much better and more natural looking now.

Tips : Sometime start it all over again is the only option. Never fear to restart your work! As much as you invest your time in that art, as much as it will be better!

Old paper work : Exhibit 1

I'm very busy this day. So instead I would like to share some of my drawing 2 - 3 years ago. Not the best, but that's how I started to realize I can draw something.

To be honest, the farer I go back, the worse it get. But one thing I do never change about it is I'm still wiling to draw a virtual idol, like Hatsune Miku, again.

A lot of drafting

Every of my work begins with stickmen. They are simple and not too complicated to delivering "story" of said picture. Personally, I like to tell "story" more than "beauty" but I'm kinda like being in between both - not too simple and not too complicated.

Factorio Badges

Finally done! From top to right, the badge are for,

1 ) 63th Auxiliary Combat Engineer Regiment

2 ) 37th Auxiliary Armed Maintenance Mechanic Division

3 ) 101st Auxiliary Mechanized Conscript Battalion

4 ) 21st Auxiliary Hazard Fluid Chemical Engineer Company

5 ) 44th Auxiliary Mechanized Army

6 ) 1337th Auxiliary Expert Combat Engineer Section

7 ) 23rd Auxiliary Special Armed Mechanic Squad

8 ) 42nd Aeronautics and Space Pioneer

Factorio Badge

I have an idea for doing badges for awhile. They look better than I expected.

Tips : Reference is key! Searching and studying what what you want  to draw can help you greatly.

The Engineer (male)

Inserter (Color)

Tried something new today. <3

Inserter (No color)

Tips : If you want to test how good you are at drawing, try to all geometry shapes! For example, square, triangle, rectangle, circle, cube, prism, sphere, etc.

Try to draw them a lot and your drawing will surely improve overtime!

Tried to draw a man (Draft)

It went better than I thought!

Try hard friend (Comic Strip #3)

A colored version of B/W one

Tips : You can search colors to choose from in internet by just type "Color Tone" or "Color Palette". There are many and many of colors wait for you to pick! For example, if you want a skin color for your character, just type "Skin Tone" in your search box and choose one from your search result.
