I will be working on art during the break including two possible story ideas, so this break will be filled with updates!

Creature Designs

This is a very late post of something I made in Spring Quarter; there was a creature design class and we have to make two creatures after going to the zoo and draw sketches of them. Here's the first one: An artic creature that's supposed to puncture two holes on each side of the head:

The second project involves making an amphibious creature that finds an amulet.

I am now working on finals as of now, so this was a short update. More will be up after finals!

Back! With a comic to boot! ...a long post.

Hello, people!

After a long absence and having some issues with home, I'm finally here... about time too.
I'd figure this new layout would not be as busy as the other one I had before

A couple of these images are from my advanced inking class (Mila Kunis and Cameron Diaz's faces are those examples; there will be more!) and the other two are the pin-up exercises.


And here are the pin-ups: He-Man and Adventure Time! ...I have not seen Adventure Time except for that gender-bender episode.

If you want to color these images or do anything with them, email me at cho.lily01@gmail.com for permission.

Aside that, I've participated in Generate; it is a 24 hour competition (honestly, I don't think we get anything this year) that has two competitions: create a 24-page comic or redesign 52 DC Characters in homage to the new DC reboot of their series. ...I decided to stick with the 24 comic since I did that two years ago. Hopefully these post up well: Here's what I did (all with a brush pen that's lost its tip): ALL 24 PAGES!! ...it's a small file. Don't worry.

Ack!

Holy heck... it's been a while since I posted anything in here. >< I really need to update, don't I.

Anyway, this is a drawing version of another concept art challenge (I've resorted to using a pencil and paper since my wacom pen was taken for the challenge): a pleasure private fantasy flying ship. ...do I need to explain further?
...I'll do a color version of this.

Concept Images and Such

Here are two more postings involving concept art! Warning: One image is only intended for mature audiences; discretion is advised, so, look at your own risk.

Theme: Futuristic Aztec City (Aliens Optional...)



Theme: Disgruntled Russian Hooker



Here's the site where there are more fantastic art: http://conceptart-factory.blogspot.com/

Recently, I am thinking about doing a series of posting regarding various games and entertainment stuff on here. What do you think?

...and I realized I need to finish up one post that has a certain sailor scout...

Concept Sketches

I guess it's been a while since I last posted... here we go!

I am currently in a Concept Art Club and apparently, our first sketch challenge is a medieval African Evil Racer. ...and this is mine.



And an idea for what's to come for the next challenge:

Enviroments and more Enviroments. And one character image.

For Environments, Props, and Structures, we had to take a location outside and make it fit the 3 point perspective. I chose Shibuya Crossing in Tokyo and Karnak Temple in Egypt. ...the results were 50/50. The Shibuya Crossing turned out really well. However, the Karnak Temple didn't turn out as well as I thought. So, I will only show Shibuya Crossing:




For Concept Illustration, we have to create and illustrate two different environments: one fully developed and one underdeveloped. The results? A canyon like "city" and waterfall pod city. ...and this took me about an entire day to complete these.




On the other hand, I realized that rendering in Photoshop is actually fun! XD

Just a small idea for you guys on how I'm doing on human rendering in Photoshop...



I'm getting there...

What I'm going to work on and more...

If anybody recognizes this, kudos to them. This is a practice for digital painting. There will be more of this coming up in this blog...

Character Design Projects and Three Pages of Work

Just a warning before you continue reading: There are a lot of pictures in this post. You have been warned.

Last quarter, I took Character Design for Animation and Digital Coloring and Lettering. Those classes were fun and there were a LOT of work last quarter.

This is the final project for Character Designs: make up our own story and create characters out of them. Then take two of them and make the turnarounds and expressions. I did mine based on the five mystical beasts in Asia. Shapes and posture were emphasized.









This was an earlier assignment that made us work with a franchise. I took Bruce Timm... and took Justice League Unlimited. I had ninja and samurai (go figure...) and this is what I did.






That... was done by hand. The original was done digitally with Photoshop CS4 and CS5. I think I also remembered my hand cramping after all of that.

This is the final for Digital Coloring and Lettering. The title for this is called "Monogatari"- inspired by the ghosts and creatures from Japanese folklore.






As usual, enjoy the images and criticisms are welcome.

Done! For these little assignments...

As the result of two all-nighters... here are the products of what I've done for the vehicles.

This is the tech version of a caravan....




...And this is the bio version.



This was the grandeur vs gutter project for earlier today. The first one is a foyer (originally, it was supposed to be a ballroom. However, I forgot about dancing) and the second one is an abandoned apartment.





Enjoy.
