#65 Last poast of Spring' 09

My Ill3 final, those of you who took Clothed Figure 2 with me would probably remember the sketch.

Definitely has been a great semester despite the numerous breakdowns and burnouts. Felt I really have grown alot, in terms of technique, thinking and endurance. And of course, getting stuff into this year's Springshow. Now all I have to do is hope they get displayed. Have a great summer everynyan, and I'll see you in Fall ;)

#64 XBOX HUEG

Presentation boards for Adv. Perspective final. Xbox hueg, these are. 30x40" each.

Some photos of the painful process of sticking them together and making sure it lines up properly.







Storybook cover for Ill3 class.
And of course we end with a sketch collab between Petur, Ed, Robert and myself.
One more week to Summer break!

EDIT: For photos from our Advance Perspective Final Presentation, go to my blog--> emersontung.blogspot.com

#63 Waterworld the Sequel!

I should just name my story that instead of Wreckdiver.. since I unknowingly came up with a whole world and setting based on that movie without knowing it. Nope. I did not watch Waterworld until my friend told me about it when I was telling another friend about my story.Trying out the stylized look.
An awesome sketch collab between Petur, Robert and me. The theme was Urban Fantasy so I started out with a guy with a magic suitcase.. and after going through the two of them, it became a magic suitcase that shoots out big haired men in underwears...

#62 Double You Eye Peas

Stuff for Adv. Perspective final. Just today I learned that the setting of my story which I thought was ingenious... has been done before. That's the second time where I find out something I thought I was the first to come up with.. had already been done before a long time ago. ARGH.
Not a fan of isometric....
Joko's right. We AAU students really do suck in environments...

Work in progress for Ill3:

So I found the f-x brushes in Painter... and thought it'd be so much cooler if I made the city burned and attacked by fairies.
Yeaap. Made it a 100 times cooler dontcha think?

#61 Stuff on my table....

Busy busy busy... Oh how I wish classes were during the evening so I can spend my nights drawing and drawing and wake up late.. but alas, it's not. So I guess I better sleep now before Chuck catches me sleeping during his lectures again...

#60 Uhm.. yeah...like.... you know....

Adv. Perspective strikes again!


This is what I do once I run out of "cool" ideas....
I have no explanation for this one... I really don't. Come up with one yourself.

#59 Procrastination

A minicollaboration between me and my friend, Anjii. Anjii started out with a random scribble and we kept passing it back and forth between the two of us until we ended up with this.
You can see the process here.

A piece for industrial design of the week activity at cA.org.

Sketchbook stuff...
At Andrew's. The tree guy/storyteller is his character.

I'm sure there's something wrong with his anatomy here.. gyah. Darn anatomy...

A drawing of Petur drawing.. done during Chuck's homework tour thing.

And nope, I've not started on any homework. Weee...

#58 By your powers combined....

Second and last Illustrator assignment. Yey. Now I have a love/hate relationship with vectors.

These are awesome collaborations our sketch-o-rama last week at Borders with Petur, Ed and Kelly. We did this thing where we all start drawing something in our sketchbook for around 5 minutes or so, and then we pass our sketchbook to the person sitting to our left or our right, and draw on whoever's sketchbook that come to us, and we keep repeating the process until it reaches a full circle.

These 2 are from Petur's sketchbook. For some odd reason the ones in Petur's sketchbook always comes out the most awesome while the rest of the us just seem to end up with things pretty random.
Totally love this one. It started off with Petur drawing the guy with the gun, me continuing with mr. snakewormhead, Kelly drawing the little girl and Ed finishing off with a midget. In my eyes, it was perfect.

This one's awesome too. Petur started off with mountain soldier guy, Ed drawing the dog, Kelly adding people and me adding the yetis.

Anyway, remember how I said our sketchbook always end up with things random? Well, here's mine.
Told you so. The other one is just too horrifying for me to even post it up. It might scar your eyes. No kidding. Though Petur, Kelly and Ed still wants me to post it up I know.

These are from Kelly's. Just as random..

So while doing research for my noah's ark pieces I stumbled upon this photo. I thought it was pretty scary.. and interesting too. And I decided to play around with it in photoshop.

And I came up with this....
I think it's pretty cute.. in a scary way.

In Ill3 today, we were asked to paint portraits for practice. As usual, it's hard for Pierre, Angeline and I to take it too seriously.

So mine ended up with Dimitry(from Darkstalker) and Vegeta's lovechild. The sketch was of Gokulo but I thought of doing otherwise.

And we were done pretty early and Angeline started messing around with hers by adding dialogue boxes... and I followed. and one thing led to the next and this was what the 3 of us ended up with. It was done in real time between our 3 monitors. Angeline compiled and animated it and turned it into this....
Make sure you fullview this.

#57 Tuts mah barreh

A personal piece of work for portfolio's sake. I'm starting to realise doing a clean lineart before colouring in photoshop cuts down my working time by half.
I wish people would hire me just to draw robots in the future but I know that's far from the reality that I'll face. Time to start practicing drawing trees, rocks and doorknobs.

Stuff from Adv. Persp. The lack of idea and good concepts behind these disturb me. Jellyfishes in space was fun though.

Sketching at borders with the gang.
We did some themed sketching. One was Civil war star wars.. uh.. yeah. So there's Jedi Lincoln.
Next themed sketch was Dragonball. Vegeta should be in the movie. And this is how he should look like in the movie IMHO.
Speaking of Dragonball.. a sketch done in Painter in class in ILL3. Goku and Picolo's son.. GOKULO! GOING SUPER SAIYAN YO!!!11!!!1!
Hoi Mun loved this so much he made a fanart out of it. Of which you can see it here

#56 Post wondercon post

For Joko's class. Noah's ark again. Don't feel like I did well this time in terms of design for the first one. Oh well. Was expecting Joko to point out the horrible perspective in mine but he apparently didn't. Woohoo.


I know. Noah's awesome. And I need to work on my sketching.

A piece of work I did for a team that's making a game and they want to promote their stuff at Wondercon. Wasn't my lineart but I did the colour work.

See. See. It's there at the Academy booth! Wish I had more time to put more work to refine it though. Oh well.

A robot sketch I did while we were at Borders after dinner just hanging out. Can't remember the last time I had fun drawing. Neither can I remember the last time I sketched on the sketchbook. Feels good to draw something I love again. And yes, that's a zombie boy. He loves your brains.

Returning home with my loot. A pretty good bargain I'd say. Got them all for $25. Poster was free of course. XD Finally got my hands on The Tumor. It's awesome and I definitely recommend it.

And before I go I just have to add this...

I believe in the theory that having Petur's photo on my blog will make it 1000x more awesome. Not to mention this is also a picture of Petur giving TWO thumbs-up. TWO! Surely it's beyond awesome now.
