Merry Christmas 2013 and Happy New Year 2014

Good evening everyone :)

We are almost on the end year that's mean Christmas and New Year plus holiday that doesn't exist in my office.. 

Well at least this Christmas i have something to post :D. 

Recently i have a line chat friend, we chatted a regularly topic then that person often disappeared, for several days, a week and the longest time was about 2 weeks XD 

That person told me that he is busy in order to finish his master degree's thesis. Before He told me that, I've been thinking about Christmas + picture to support him as a friend and i want to renew my portfolio too. I made a rough sketch last week, scanned it at office and coloring this picture last night >___< that was super rush and hetic time. I've spent about 3-4 hours to color this sketch.This time I've learned something : technique of shading and coloring hair. 

the rough sketch 

the final one  * accidentally i changed the eyes.... the gaze should be direct to the viewer..*

And the last words 

Merry Christmas 2013 and Happy New Year 2014

Ja, Vikie deshita (^_^)/
see you next year

Ruǎn An another unfinished Art

Good evening!! Its been a while since my latest post xp 

Today I will post something, my another unfinished art. I was little bit frustrated while trying to create the details. I intend to make a detailed rose embroidery on her cheongsam. I failed so many times, and suddenly stopped to continue this character. 

Her name should be Ruǎn which means soft in chinese. She is chránič team mate, owned great physical attack,  and not owned any element. Her accuracy and speed is on the top level among the others, has a strong will, less talk do more is her motto. At first he disliked chránič, slowly but sure she become one of his important person :D

Can you give me any advice to improve her looks? maybe the outfit / style / hair color or else??

That's all for today :D

1 Month after returning from Japan

Hisashiburi minasan! Its been a while :) This time i will not post about my art work, because i have no any progress since last August :< So i will upload some picture i've taken while i was in Japan.I using my pocket digital from brand "casio" it has 10mpix quality. I am not a narcissistic so i didn't take so many self picture. The raw picture's tone is quite dull and not satisfying, so i edited it with photoshop to make it HDR look a like :D and the result is quite good *grin* Here some of the photos that i edited

those are only samples XD if you are interested in my vacation in Japan last August, just check my another blog :here in Indonesian only That's all for today :D ja Vikie deshita

July post :) (unfinished drawing)

Good evening, hisashiburi da ne! it's been a while since my last post 

this time i post my recent (unfinished) drawing. i drew this manually on a paper, scanned it and coloring it thru photoshop but without my graphic tablet. i use mouse only :D 

okay let me share my hard time coloring it :p 

the main weapon of using this method is polygonal lasso~ plus clipping mask technique 

as i know many expert animator or illustrator using mouse rather than graphic tablet, and their works still awesome. and that makes me want to try this method. but i think this method only for anime or cartoon style, i don't think we can coloring realism with this method. well i've tried it but failed XD 

while coloring this picture i stick my eyes into my lappy's LCD and keep glaring on it LOL.

my old difficulties are shadow, choosing tone and light direction disorder >____< 

i will finish the rest of the details including shadows soon~ and make a new sketch again. 

to be honest, i have another personal project = a pixel art, but still undone....... i'm dying of its skin tone and gradient tone :"< 

this is the picture 

that's all i have,

see you next time :)

recent drawings ^^

good evening everyone :) today i'll post my recent drawings, here we go!! 

Chibi Daichi Miura a singer, lyricist, dancer and choreographer from Japan

a request from my online friend, Imada - san, she loves him so much. The main idea of the pose of this picture is D.M's butt lower body lol, so i drew this when i have spare time at office, and she loved the original sketch, so i made this picture as CG :p my original sketch was too rough 

Yulina's Request 

He asked me to draw a self portrait of him, and the pose based on conan's pose (meintantei conan). actually i traced the pose and expand the body width, and i draw the face with a photo as reference. I'm using SAI paint tool. idk why but i love this program, very user friendly. when i use photoshop my laptop lagged +_+ don't say that i have to upgrade my laptop......

the second one is banner, he also asked me to make banner : a sky blue with glowing effect, and this is the result. i made this by using photoshop. very easy to make :) 

Koma Manga (4 panels manga) 

recently i documented all of scene that happen at my office and put some improvisation dialogue, start from trivia things until ero joke scene (LMAO) and trying to make that as a manga. once again i drew this by using SAI paint tool

actually i also draw several object , about 5 - 6 sketches (as usual the objects are human :p) but since i don't have any scanner i can't upload it now :| 

that's all for today, thank you for reading 

bye~

Game portal and original vector character

happy sunday everyone :) 

today i'll post something (again) lol

its about a layout. i'm not good on it but i tried because i have to as a requirement even it was completely rejected, because my design is ugly (lol) 

a layout of a mobile game portal, consist of 3 main menu: home, profile and games. 

the second one is a vector that represents me (of course this is very me, because i made this based on my personality lol) at first i didn't have any plan to make vector character, but my friend asked me to make our gang member's character and print it on a t-shirt for KL trip. i had made 8 of characters (5 or 6 characters have done) as my friend instructed. but in the middle of the process she changed her mind and made all of the characters by herself. so i won't publish the rest character except mine since they were completely not needed anymore (or i can say those are failed characters lol)

that's all,

hello spring

Good evening everyone :) 

today i'll post a new picture, i drew this picture less than an hour and this is about w-inds. :D 

several days ago i read a tutorial web about "chibi 1D" and i thinking 

"I'll do same thing, but the object is w-inds. not 1D" 

and this is the result, as we know now is spring season in Japan and several countries but not in my country (Indonesia) so thats why i added some sakura petals

that's all

chránič my original character

good evening everyone :) 

this time i will post something little different, i drew an original character :)) 

i use sai paint tool because it really user friendly, i should try to use photoshop too to sharpen my skill on it.

i drew this spontaneously after i watched a speed drawing tutorial in youtube, and i i've got an idea "why i don't try to draw similar thing with my own style?" and this is the result.

i need to smooth the gradient, line etc, because it still rough anywhere 

 " He is an Archer, a silly noble man, bad temper, bad mouth, afraid of woman, kind hearted, self conscious, with strong will :3 he own fire element " his name is chránič ( chraanich ) taken from Czech language that means " the protector" 

what do you think? is my skill improved?? 

LOL

current drawings

hello everyone, it's been a while :) 

now its time to update this blog :DDD

i post 3 of my latest drawing - coloring 

let's get it on 

1. Kaede Rukawa (SLAM DUNK)

i've drew this picture about 3-4 years ago, and i painted this last week. actually i made this for (cough) someone i liked before  my old friend's birthday, an elementary school mate. he adored rukawa so much and called him self as Mr rukawa, i prefer hanamichi than rukawa :p 

The original one, rukawa raises a half sphere shape cake, not like this. i reconstructed this picture just for 

w-inds. because last thursday 3.14 was their 12th anniversary :3

2. KEITA & RYUICHI ( w-inds.) 

i added color to this picture, quite frustrating to add some colors esp skin tone....

3. REALISM 

lately ive been addicted to realism style, because i was never ever able to draw in this style. but i want to try and this is the result. to be really honest i'm disappointed with the result 

that's all, what do you think? any improvement? or no progress maybe?

ja vikie deshita ^^

Super Deformed aka Chibi

hello everyone ^^, it's been a while :D

I'll tell you something, recently i've liked a non japanese singer. and both of them are from same country : sweden. 

the first one is seremedy, a swedish  Visual kei band

the second one is Ulrik Munther, a soloist singer. as i knew he had been called the "justin bieber" from europe. yeah no doubt, all off his song is written by himself, and he has a clearr~~~~ voice <3. 

that's the prologue :p 

nah the pictures that i upload today is related to seremedy's guitarist named "RAY". at first i'm not into him 'm into YOHIO at first" , but i found that he has such of interesting character, funny, lil bit cruel, sarcasm, but he has such soft heart *as i know* he will fainted if he see a spider, a big LOL for me. with giant and manly body but scared of small creature called spider :p

nah this is the first picture of him that i've made. 

i using wacom intuos 4 as usual, SAI paint tool, but only using 2 layers >___< it was kinda hard, i must draw with carefully and using extra energy plus brain :DDD

the second one i finished this early morning, i finished this and went to sleep about 3.00 am >_____< 
before i started to drew this, i've searching a tutorial in deviant art, about "chibi tutorial" and i found 1 interesting tutorial that explained the tips and tricks how to made chibi version, and this is it the result. not bad right? :p i using multi layers (about 10 layers maybe)

and i will made the another one chibi of RAY coz i think he is the most easy to draw ;p in different pose and outfit. wish me luck ya ^^
