More Digital Drawings, DeviantArt Account and Happy New Year

I have decided to move all my drawings to DeviantArt. I find DA a great platform to upload my art, maintain a track of them and properly get motivated to improve myself.

About the characters for last two seniors, they are as follows:

and

(I am still learning about embedding flash content in wp, kindly excuse me if you’re unable to open the links in the above images)

These are based on second and fourth seniors of mine from this post: My Seniors Can’t Be This Cute

The main point for the girl here is her puppy eyes and tomboy look (although she totally changed after going to US with regards to how she used to dress up). For the second character, well, he’s one of the most difficult characters I have ever made. There are less references for such get-up on internet and I think it’s probably the first time anyone has tried to japanimate a Sardaar (I searched and searched but couldn’t find). So, while I could use references here and there for other characters, this one was totally from my imagination and of course, real life pics, which I did consult for everyone.

Moving on to DeviantArt account, it’s like this: I would just update my Fandrawings page and not make exclusive blog posts, like I used to do earlier or have been doing for the past few weeks. It’s also because it’s been really long time since I did any review and I need to write more in that direction. Also, I’ll update other posts to include pictures from DA rather than wp media gallery (slowly, I am very lazy at such things).

But in the end, I’ll  post the composite picture which I finished as a Christmas project last year (Damn! Last Year?)

Chibi composition

Which reminds me, a very happy new year to all my readers and fellow bloggers!

I will take my leave now and try to think about what all reviews I need to do…..

This time a guy! This is japanimated character of my mentor. As I stated in my previous post, these all characters were to lead to a composition, because I don’t own any pictures of me and my team together 😥 Hence I decided to draw these.

So this guy, anyway shows indifference when getting pics clicked with us. And he is very cool XD I drew this character keeping that in mind. What I am most proud about him is the hairstyle, it exactly mimics how my mentor does his hair. And the aura 😀 He is the third senior from this post of mine: My Seniors Can’t Be This Cute

Next up in the series is me:

Chibi 2

Ok ok, I get it. This looks like a baby. Possibly can’t be me. But in comparison to all the people who are coming next and the previous one, I am like this 😛

This is actually the first character I drew, hence the old style. I won’t be drawing her again, because I like her just like this, sweet, innocent kid 😛 As for the previous one, no matter what I did, I wasn’t satisfied. It took me one whole week to decide upon the new hairstyle and the shading pattern. I need to learn a lot more.

Which reminds me, paint.net is quite a handy tool. Not as equipped as photoshop, obviously, but it has all the basics down. I really like its curve tool. Not that I am in a position to give advices.

Anyway, off to make next character!

Edit: I had to ultimately redraw her as these all characters were to lead to a composition of 5 characters. Not much changes apart from reducing brush size for line art and remodelling the legs to match other characters:

So, I am trying my hands again at digital drawings. Here is what I came up with:

Chibi girl 1

My first character after zillion days (Actually she’s second. I have one more, will post it later). She is based on my first senior from this post: My Seniors Can’t Be This Cute

How? Main highlights are her fringes, her green eyes, cute girlish attire and funky yet kind hearted nature.

Btw, what I realized is, guys are tougher to draw in chibi form than girls, especially hairstyle. There are a lot of areas in which I need to improve. Anyway, I am trying to make many many chibis based on the people in my life, will keep posting!

Edit: I changed the style a little bit and here is the new better (hopefully) version. Shading is still hard 😥

I am in the middle of experimenting with the technique though.

Fandrawing Post 4 – Saiunkoku Monogatari Chibi Ran Ryuuren

Fandrawing Post 4 – Saiunkoku Monogatari Chibi Ran Ryuuren

I know I should be writing but I have an exam tomorrow and I haven’t started preparing for it yet. So I won’t be able to write, just for today. But I want to keep my daily streak. Hence the fan drawing, two days in a row. This is from a historical anime called Saiunkoku Monogatari. Very interesting anime but it’s story is kind of incomplete. It needs another season. >.<

About Ran Ryuuren, he is the most carefree and my favorite character in the anime. Though he has lots of responsibilities on his shoulders, he doesn’t take stress. Keeps travelling and playing flute, like he has no care in the world. But he is, most of the times, the first one to help, where he can reach. The coolest character!

Side Story – Finally, I gathered courage and told the closest friends to me about the blog. And they misunderstood the name (as usual, since it’s name contains lover ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)! Just would like to clarify that my blog’s name means that I love East Asia and NOT that I have a East Asian lover. I did have apprehensions about this. *Facepalm*

My First Character

My First Character

I realized today  that I haven’t updated my fandrawings section after it’s first post. Today, I’ll post the first character I made with Photoshop when I was trying my hands on 2-D animation. It’s not that I’ve left it, but it’s been a while since I drew any human characters. I have been designing posters though (mainly for the company I’m interning at).

I know, I know. I’m not good at it, yet. But this was made without any help of Wacom or any other tablet. In fact, I didn’t have any mouse either (I still don’t own one 😛). Oh, now I think about it, it’s easier to just use photoshop tools rather than draw because I have been trying with tablet and it took me a long time to be able to draw straight lines.

Meet Kang Jin Ae…… That’s the name I gave her although she looks nothing like Koreans. But I was obsessed about it, I guess and I searched and searched for a good name. And this is what I found came up with. More about her, she is a recent graduate from an art college and has changed very much from her school days. Her crush was stunned to see her! In school, she was a hardworker and excelled in academics (only). And she was a nerd, so nobody took notice of her (or so she thought) Now she is working in her dream company which she joined not too long ago.

Sigh! If only I could draw better. I’m practising hard though. I hope, in future, I’m able to post some good character sketches (with full body and all). Till then, Keep practising Ms. EastAsianLover……. (Lol! What am I doing? Actually, that did cheer me up a little. ㅋㅋㅋ)

Random Fandrawings Post 1

Random Fandrawings Post 1

Well, I don’t have much to post today, so I decided to post some random fandrawings of mine. Here are two of them:

This one is from manga called School Days (chapter 6 page 14). I don’t remember the story though. I drew this because I liked the Kimono (in this case actually Yukata since they wear Yukatas when going to festivals) very much.

This is from Hana wa knife o mi ni matou (ch-01 pg-06). I totally fell in love with her eyes and hence drew her.
