Comic page preview

Here's 1 of 5 page story I'm working on for Atomic Lead comic.

There aren't too many dialogs.... just a lot of action.

I still need to add some gray tones and sound fx

before this page is done.

Illustration Friday: Phoenix

Here's a quick doodle of a phoenix.

I know...It looks like a duck. But, it is on fire. ;)

Happy New Year!!

X-mas presents!

I got this Hellboy Ouija board for my office exchange present. This is my best office gift.... EVER! I'm a big fan of Mike Mignola's work and all that paranormal stuff... so this is like, two gifts in one. Thanks, Bill R.!

This Locke figure by McFarlane Toys is a present to myself. ;) I saw this in a toy store and I just got to have it. The details and likness are incredible. Unfortunately, there are only a few joints; the head and arms tilts a little.... that's it. But if you're a Lost fan... you got to get it. I want to get Hurley and Jack next!

So that's just a couple of neat things I got on X-mas. Anyone got any cool loot?

Illustration Friday: Help

This one is for the Pudget Sound Energy workers that are still trying to restore powers to thousands of homes, that got their electricity knocked out during last thursday's wind storm, in Seattle. Thanks for helping us out guys and we appreciate all your hard work!

No electricity!

Washington got hit with a nasty wind storm thursday evening. Trees came down and took out electricity in 750,000 homes and businesses. Well, guess what... I'm one of them. So, for the past few days, I've been bouncing around from different relatives to find a warm bed at night.

There is some progress to bring power back to the Seattle area but it haven't reach my house yet. :(

Anyway, that's all for now.

*UPDATE: Finally! The power is back on Monday morning!!! After four days of no electricity, all the food in the refrigerator need to be thrown out. So more shopping is in order and get my life back on schedule.

Holiday Art Jam

Augie organized another Art Jam, Dec 16th in Georgetown! Purchase some art by the local artists, as X-mas presents for your friends and family. Come check it out if you're in the Seattle area!

*UPDATE: Looks like the Art Jam 2 was another big success. Unfortunately for me... I was out of town due to the power outage. :( Go to Augie's blog to check out some photos from the event!

Illustration Friday: Mask

Sometime, we put on a happy face to mask our sadness....but eventually, your true feeling will surface. Best to deal with it instead of hiding from it.

This piece is more serious then my other work. Probably, because of the all sad news I've been watching. :(

Hiro the Hero

My pal Travis did some comic pages for "Heroes"... now availible on the web. Click HERE to check it out!!! Travis did page 3, 4, and 5 of Chapter 11: Fathers and Daughters. I'm a big fan of his work and I'm so happy that he got this major comic gig. Go get 'em Travis... you rule!

Below is my quick doodle of Hiro from the show... manga style. I'm so delighted that there's an asian main character on TV. And he's a comic geek too!! :)

Illustration Friday: Might

The baby is "mighty" powerful to lift that elephant! Man... I wish I was that strong. ;)

Gunman

Just a quick doodle with colors. I was busy the last couple of weeks. Hope everyone having a good holiday season!

Illustration Friday: Clear

Clear night sky.... it's amazing how many stars you can see. If you live in the city then you're out of luck. ;)

Art Jam-Seattle

Augblog organized a wicked art jam in Georgetown, on Nov 11th. If you're in the Seattle area... drop by and check out some cool art (or even purchase couple of pieces) by the local artists. There will be music, drinks, and... see the artists in action!! Be there or be square!

Illustration Friday: Smoke

When I think of smoke, it reminds me of the noir films. So I did a private eye on a stake out... smoking to pass the time.

Most Haunted Live

Hope everyone have a good Halloween. It was quite dark and cool in the Seattle area and lots of little ghouls roam the street for treats. If you're like me and like watching ghost investigation on TV, than you might've catch Most Haunted Live on the Travel channel the last few nights. This is an UK production reality show where Yvette and her team (which include a psychic) go to different haunted locations. The show is more entertainment than scientific. For example, whenever there's a sound... everyone swears and run away. Not the most professional investigators but definitely entertaining. :)

Locke is back!

Grudge

I saw Grudge 2 this weekend. They got some visually interesting scenes.... but the story (or lack there of) was so bad... I got to give this one a "thumbs down". I thought the first one was way better.

Illustration Friday: Smitten

Smitten with a kitten. :)

Quick self portrait

Not as cartoony as my other one. I thought it came out okay. I look pretty serious but my shadow is smiling. ;)

Speed painting

Did this in one hour. Check out what other artist did HERE.

Heroes

Last night I watched a show on NBC called, "Heroes." The basic plot is a group of people around the world, discover that they have super powers. So far they only introduced the first patch of heroes and you get a peek at what each can do. The show also hinted at a potential villain and disaster that'll happen to NY .

The show definately holds my interest. The characters are interesting, especially the Japanese desk jockey that became a teleporter, Hiro Nakamura played by Masi Oka. I'll be catching the next show for sure and hope it will get bigger and better.

I did a quick wallpaper of Niki Sander (Ali Larter) for the PSP. Just click on the image, then right click to save to your computer or in the photo folder of your PSP.
