Old and new!

One of my perspective scenes from last semester. Someday I will go back and fix the building colors.

The bottom picture is something I did in class for fun today. I intended the green monster to be King Kong at first. Then I thought it looked funny and turned it into a crab. I ended up with a green lizard-like creature. D:

How does one...

How does one stop thinking? I have far too many moments in the day where I wish I could just shut everything off. Meditation does me little good. My thoughts never seem to want to vacate my brain. Sigh.

I have a couple of ideas for personal projects but I don't know where I'll find the time to do any of them. Maybe spring break will be a good time?

Note to self: Ikea, take pics, lightbox.

Self portrait

My self portrait from last semester's figure drawing class that has only gotten discouraging remarks from friends.
Thanks guys.

I keep meaning to go back and fix it but I never find the time or patience to.

The picture on the bottom is a more recent self portrait.

Dear Hegel.

Dear Hegel,
Please stop hurting my head.

Bouncy ball animation v2

Revised version of my ball animation. :]

Test post.

Xanga, Wordpress, Tumblr, and now Blogger. Let's see if I'll finally stick with one blog.

Visit my Tumblr while I try to move everything over here.

I'll update this blog with some of my projects from last semester when I find the time to.

High Probability

Fuck. Tactics Ogre is out and it is fucking awesome.

There’s a high probability of my life being ruined.

A terrible scan of in progress work for my visual storytelling class. It helps if you view it from a ridiculous angle.

Things are picking up!

Things are picking up in my animation classes! I’m learning how to do inbetweens and how to animate pose-to-pose. I’m also making good progress on my story and characters. I haven’t ditched a single class yet and I’m all caught up on homework. Off to a great start~! I’ll post my characters when I find time to scan them in.

I really should adopt a more consistent sleeping schedule. I haven’t had a full night’s rest in a few days now. :/ Damn you PSP emulators.

Good weekend.

I got to hang out with new friends and old friends, finished my first animation project, discovered a new restaurant called Taiko, played video games, went to L.A., and rekindled my love for Tetris.

I had a good weekend. :]

Life changing.

F.lux and Reddit Enhancement suite, where have you been all my life?

Lunar New Year!

Stuff my mom put out for New Year’s. I just want to eat the fruit. D:

Sticky situation.

I really, really, really hate it when companies use hi-tack adhesive to stick labels to their products. You sit there and carefully peel back the label. Shit. You jiggled your arm a bit and tore the label. Sticky residue ALL OVER the product you paid for. What the hell companies?

I have a 4in by 4in square of sticky residue on the front of my sketchbook. How am I going to clean this?

I finally went to the optometrist today. My new pair of glasses look a lot like my old ones. Hah.

Got a new pen and sketchbook today. Now I am ready to take notes and draw in class!

English words are spelled funny.

English words are spelled funny. Sometimes I’ll be typing something up and do a double take because a word I’m trying to spell correctly looks odd. Good thing I have spellcheck on.

Got assigned my first animation assignment today. It’s the super basic bouncing ball. How should I make it interesting? Hmmm… maybe it’ll turn into a dog at the end.I will update with the animation when I am done with it. :]

Man, what’s up with prescription glasses being so expensive? Maybe it’s just Lenscrafter’s? The prices are unbelievable. :/ Time to find a cheap Asian place to get new glasses at.

Delicious dinner.

Mmmmm...
