pencil sketch : an elven girl

A drawing I did on a subway train to work.



Tool : Mechanical pencil (2B lead)

An elven girl. I quite enjoyed drawing the hair part XD. Let's see if I can bold the outlines or paint her later.

A short post for today ^.^ The journey will begin tomorrow :3

Anime school girl drawing

Update for day 17! :3

A quick manga sketch in my personal sketch book XD

Drew this on a subway train to work. Then later today in the evening, I decided to bold the drawing lines with black pigment liners.

The result looks like this :



Maybe I will color her later :3

Tools : 2B mechanical pencil, 005 & 01 pigment liners.

I wish I had a scanner :(

A small post for today. ^.^ The journey will begin again tomorrow! Thanks for reading :3

Me and my backpack

My tote bag was getting too small for all the drawing tools I carried to work, so I changed to a backpack instead (Thanks Darren Lee for helping me with the backpack! Do check out his violin blog if you have time!). A bit weird to dress up in an office attire and carry a backpack at the same time, but I don't really care (lol).

Ironically, I didn't get a chance to draw at work today. Felt a bit tired, as if I was catching a cold. Hope I was imagining things. Just caught a cold a month ago and it was horrible. =(

Anyway, I do have a collection of sketches in the sketch book I carry around with me. Here is one of them.



Just a line art, drawn by a mechanical pencil. I really need to get myself a scanner. lol.
Maybe I will find some time to paint it later.

 The journey will begin again tomorrow. :)

A Girl with Coffee

Drew this during lunch break in my office. :)
Wacom Tablet & Photoshop ^^


Actually I wanted to touch it up more when I got home, but my eyes hurt and I can't focus properly. I think these few days I haven't had enough sleep. x.x

Anyway, the journey will begin again tomorrow. ^^ Thanks for reading!

Mensa's Finger Food Platter - Colored!

Hi there! :)

Today I brought a set of Copic markers to work, and colored the food platter drawing I did yesterday during my lunch break.




Took me around half an hour to do. Pretty fast. Haven't used Copic markers for so long it felt kinda weird to hold one now. I should be able to do better than this if I practice more, but right now the finished piece doesn't look so bad.

Came back home and had a wonderful dinner. I touched the piece up a bit with color pencils, then took a photograph of it and adjust the brightness in my computer.

Got a bit of time, so I did this as well XD





Thank you for your attention! :) The journey will continue again tomorrow! ^^

Mensa's Board Game Gathering

Today I went to a Mensa's monthly board game session.

Felt a bit sick when I arrived, so I didn't join my friends in their first game. They were playing Cashflow, a board game with a pretty serious concept of how to manage your finance, cash flow, investment and all that. Not really my thing lol. Already got too much to think in real life.

This is how the board game looks like.

Took my time off to draw this finger food platter served on the table instead XD.

Click to enlarge!

It's been a LONG while since the last time I drew still life. I realized that I need more practice in fine art drawing. The result is not bad, though. Managed to finish it in 1-2 hours at most. Used a mechanical pencil and a Faber Castell pigment liner to draw this piece.


Later I joined in for a quick round of Taboo, a word-guessing game. Surprisingly entertaining. Simple and fun. Planned to color the food platter drawing when I got home, but one of our friend still wanna play another session of Witch's Brew, so we went to McDonald and played one round of it. It was fun, although by the time the round ended it's already 10pm. Reached home at 11pm. Need to sleep soon or else I won't be able to wake up to work in the morning, so this is all I can post for tonight.

Have a good night everyone. :) The journey will continue tomorrow.
