It's been ages since I last posted here... I got school to to take care of xd Well now I graduated BSIT[Information technology] and working as a full time artist for a company.
Working as a commercial artist isn't a walk in the park, Quality, Quantity, in-depth and Inhuman Speed is what they demand from us... there are times that I manage to pass 10 complete illustration in just a day[Office minimum quota] and I am lucky if half of it passed the quality control. Making raw images, editing & cropping images and designing backgrounds is not a problem, but when you are assigned to make/conceptualize logos, advertising illustrations and anything related makes your life a living hell.
Work goes on smoothly, until I 'spaced-out' or 'mental-block', this is my biggest problem so far... the only way for me to fight this is to eat and smoke a lot. At present I am gaining a lot of weights, my pants won't fit anymore and now I am capable of smoking 2 packs of cigarette a day. People in my department are either very thin or very fat, but we all smoke a lot... this is not a good lifestyle is it? The pay is good, in 20 years from now at this rate... I will be sitting pretty, But I am just thinking what would I look like by that time sweatdrop
So Resonance, Has anyone of you made it? How did you survive and live a healthy lifestyle or you knew someone who does, like your relatives perhaps? I would really appreciate to hear that. Thank you.
Okies, now for some Illustrations I did since 2009 to 2010:
2009
Odin Sphere
Commission I made back then, this is the PG-13 version... don't ask me about the adult version kekekekekekeke.

Bacchanalia:
Intended to make a group of people celebrating Bacchanalia, but I got tired along the way and just framed what I had finished and gave it the title "Nymph & Satyr"

This is an art collaboration with my cousin and one of my officemate. It is really fun working on this, since we've done it during lunch hour... and were on time pressure but manage to complete it on time twisted
Tech and Gel ink pen

The Black Butler
A birthday gift I gave to someone special this Sept 4 2010. This is her favorite character, Sebastian Michaelis.
Photoshop CS5[I did it while I am at the office]

Cosplay Ichigo Kurosaki
My friend did a cosplay with Bleach character Ichigo.

SteamPunk
Just designing a character, there will be a lot of changes as the character develops. any fashion critique will be helpful.

I guess that would be enough, I am afraid I can't show any illustrations I did at the office since I am bound by contract... and probably none of you would find it interesting blaugh
