inconsistency

In the difficulties of an upcoming test i find a lack of spare time in which to draw.

So when i do have spare time, roughly a few seconds between doing one thing and the other, such as i type now and am about to make an actual pizza (protip: make your own pizza), i decide to address a major fault with my drawing style

cause seriously, im totally inconsistent. its not like i can draw something and replicate it without tracing easily.

thats really bad =/

so i draw circles.
dont always need paper
but they need to be as circly as possible.

someday ill defeat mr rawson at drawing circles.

who am i kidding, thats impossible.


i spose i dont need to upload my recent work then.

but dammit! i will totally make some totally awesome drawing which unlike most i am not embarassed to upload onto a globalised network =__=

nono, seriously, im not drawing hentai. nor naked people.

inability

i have no posted much here, as ive kept a bad track of things.

not only that, but school is being the delightful bitch that school is.

by delightful i mean ARRGH FUCK! I HATE SCHOOL! WHAT A BITCH.

but i have developed the need to update my drawing style rapidly.

whereas last time i updated from stick figures to anime, rapidly, i have found the need to draw more dynamically.

improved backgrounds. more detailed people. more detailed everything. proper drawing proportions.

the only way to take that next logical step however, is a particularly dark route.

of all manga-ka i have observed, they only share one common trait which leads to the mastery of their own drawing style. this has infuriated me.

they can all draw hentai.

~i will now be taking a substantial hiatus from this blog in a quest to draw really, really dam well.

true story


happened today, recess. what's both funny and sad about this is the fact that i could just as easily have replaced courtney with amanda or tien, and the comic would still be almost as funny, and almost as truthful (they didn't shout quite as much).

phil|o - pokemoe: i lost it

ok so here's a picture i drew last night.. took about half an hour. lately i've gotten back into the pokemoe mood.. and in case you can or cant tell.. im not quite re-adjusted to it yet hahaha


so thinking i would go over it in flash like i did with selena, i scanned the picture, and here it is. but like.. i ended up just printing it to practice colouring.. i failed -.- i'd rather not show you haha.

here's the coloured picture though, courtesy of lyn and her dA account:


and yes this is a comic blog ive decided to bloody make the things i upload bigger.

i actually quite like it.. do you?

Hatsune Miku.

There is a website. It is called Nico Nico Douga. It is available at www.nicovideo.jp.

It is highly entertaining if you can create an account.

There is a character called hatsune miku. She is like microsoft sam. But she can sing. Heck, she can imitate human speech fairly dam easily.

There are some great songs.

I found a song called miracle paint.

Its still stuck in my head.

And thats pretty much the geist of my story. Seeing as i still cant SCAN, ive chosen to take a picture of the drawing. Which is on a sheet of cardboard.



Welcome to my room. While you're here you can spot a few unique items.

That Kirby plushie works as a lamp. it floats, if you ignore the thin pipe-like neck of the ikea lamp. The mushroom is always there in case there are evil mushrooms or more of those dam turtles.

And the kfc bucket is because kfc is awesome. You can drink out of that bucket. Its pretty cool.

But thats a pretty poor shot of the drawing



Yeah, its a fairly quick chibi drawing. By now ive erased the drawing so i can do math exercises on this cheap piece of cardboard.

Oh yes, she is holding a leek. Whether you understand or not, ive uploaded this, and im going to continue catching up on math homework.

Good day to all of you.

phil|o - moonlight hill: bubbles!

this post is dual purposed.. in terms of:

1) i show my first attempt at the "bubbly background" technique, inc olour! AAAND animation =D

and 2) its also a contrast from my starting sketch, from paper to flash

id ont know why i use flash to draw though >.> i should probably use fireworks.. im more adjusted to it i guess

and as usual, my friend selena here was drawn with mouse coz i have no graphics tablet =3

enjoy ^^

the original sketch

finished!


and ANIMATEEDDDD!

frustration.

ugh

blogging comics is difficult.

the issue for me relies in the digital format. how weird.

ive made some ridiculously good drawings, sadly on paper.

half of them i cannot show. NO THEYRE NOT HENTAI. READ CLEARLY.

mmm. that and for somebody as geeky as me, i have rarely touched the scanner.

kinda cause i used to have a working graphics tablet. sigh.

And also cause i havent installed photoshop since my laptop reformatted.

i felt this drawing i produced in paint, albiet crude for its software, summarises my delicate feelings.



I felt my message required text. Thus i chose a classy font. it seems to fit well.

But ill figure out that dam scanner.

Its David

Hey, this thing comes with trebuchet font. =/

umm, yeah, i actually can draw too.

lemee get this outta the way. no matter what comic has been produced, ever,
we cannot compare any of them to Alexander Garner's wonderfully established,
hand crafted illustration,
of mr wenbam (or however the hell you spell him).

ishraq isnt gonna get dumber with his comic ideas which is good. and im sure phil could do with a scolding on proper flash tweening, but his dedication is there. im lazy unfortunately.

either way, do enjoy compile. and contribute or something, or say something.

just, i would say my drawing style is definetly worser then alot of people. but to those who are better then me, i do something very important.

i dont go "WOW ALL YOUR DRAWINGS ARE SOOOOO GOOD WHAAAAA"

i instead say "you could improve in (xxxxxxx)"

mmmyes. and then the next drawing well just improve that and see if you can hit us with another one.

oh you dont have to i spose. its just that i have NO ego and primarily wanna improve drawing. v_v

ishraq? phil? anyone who joins? what do you think =/




post one, being the first number of counting

ishraq hey it's ishraq here i am it's me (ishraq) right here.

anyway, this is just a little comic blog project thingy we started for no real reason other than to amuse ourselves. also, you may want to keep in mind that not all of our different brands of humour may appeal to you, so please, no whinging later about how it "wasn't funny". also, i can't draw freehand rectangles:


leave it to me to start things off with a maths comic. -_-"
