K 1st post for me~ did this drawing at the request of alex :P

Repent of Lucifer


Old old piece. Not too manga-ish (by my own standards). The lighting and everything is horrendous. Anatomy's bad too.. Hope I've improved a little since this piece. :'(

Estancia

Recently i chanced upon an awesome webcomic, this one actually does _not_ revolve around gaming humor and slapstick. Check it out.

Kungfu Animation Test




This is a short animation test I did, to get use to the feel of the biped interface in Max. Nothing too fancy. Done in 4 hours.

And the new TIP website is up :D

PS:The music is wayyy too annoying so I removed it. Blergh.

ORIGINAL CHARACTER - SAINTHOOD

Done in pencil then inked using a sketchpen. I did this piece some time after army. It's actually a development on my character. The perspective sux though.. Just look at the car and the chest...... ^_^'''

But anyway.. It's again based on a Buddhist saint (like many of my OCs). That scripture scroll shit he's holding is supposedly the longest scripture in Buddhism.

Vasteel Introduction


Ok I know i've posted so much stuff but failed to introduced myself(my my my where are my manners)......Anyway I'm Vasteel..those of you who know me personally should know my real name, those of you who don't well....know me personally and you'll know my real name.

I'm a 3D modeler. I graduated from 3D Sense on 2006 and have been working at Tenacious games asia ever since. However Tenacious games has folded recently due to problems which I prefer to say on a need to know basis.

As of now I'm awaiting my new job to begin at Playware studios. Hope things will be better there...specifically the snacks.

anyway...Great to see all of you and hope to see you guys post stuff as well....I'm also learning and won't mind sharing secrets and techniques...I know alot of selfish Mama Fookers out that who learn stuff become great but don't share techniques cos they scared people improve better then them and steal their starch bowls. I personally dispise these people and wish they break all their........ok nevermind anyway just know i'm not those kind of people.

If i don't tell you, It either means I don't know and I'm just playing with you or I forgot how to do it already.



Cheers!!

Testing

Hi testing testing 1 ,2 ,3
this is my first post and i wanted to see how all this work...never really blogged before except on forums....

Balrog

Just got my balrog at a lower-than-retail price. I'm a very fussy buyer, figures must have the X-factor the first time I lay my eyes on it. Frankly I was torn between this and sideshow weta's balrog, the latter definitely has quality hands down but we just do not hav tat chemistry. And its triple in price. To make a model out of balrog isn't easy, he is suppose to be on fire, glowing from within. Balrog's fire look like a chunk of cheesecake which he has to carry around and act macho about it, totally opaque and no self-illum fire. Thats when gentle giant's balrogs got the edge, lighting feature! For 2 AAA batt, its pretty much what I would have wanted... not perfect but its there. Reminds me of someone who might have told me, "Got light somemore, worth it!"


The box is quite huge, 70% styrofoam and sponges. A LOTR dvd(extended edition) is included to emphasize the scale.



Pandora's box - Bahaya, please do not open.

Keeper of Dreams


When Men came to understand dreams, the dream keepers made an agreement with them. They will make mortal dreams the most beautiful moments Men could ever had, in turn Men got to sacrifice a period when all activities came to a halt at night, known as sleep. This is a policy dream keepers prevented Men from advancing too fast. However, dreams are addictive and soon things go out of hand. Even in the day, Men immerse themselves in the pool of fantasy. Creatures call "Nightmares" are released by the keepers at night to warned Men about day dreaming.


I realise my drawings are becoming more sketchy, the creature has a kinda human anatomy which used to practise. Still trying to improve the anatomical sense.. like taking forever. And I have this habit of taking my time at first n rush to finish towards the end, kinda sucked.

Big Balls


In the beginning, he look like this. Sad, lonely and no hair. Pretty much how we felt on the first day of enlistment. However he is much more a loser, having just lost an eye recently. To sum it up, He is like Sagat trying to immitate Ryu. It kinda warms my heart thinking of this.



And so even when yun nam fails, I introduce 3ds MAX Hair to him. Compiling my works to send but I just cant help to touch up old works. Thats when I felt this character having a sort of deep hatred for its creator inside my HDD. Sculpted abit in Zbrush to make him more rough and I received comments about the beard too curly and hair too choppy. So there he is, still sad and lonely but hes got hair.







Frankly, to do a model for a celebrated hero such as Big Boss isn't an easy task. Crit will come blasting in all direction, and that model will never be the Big Boss. The truth is, there is no 1 Big Boss, even the 3 images taken from game cut scenes can be 3 different characters. Sometimes we wanna perfect something so badly, its not even that perfect in the first place. In any case, Big Boss remains one of my fav characters of all time. He is not purple btw...

insects

CPF is up by 1%, even grasshoppers have something to cheer about.

"Hiak hiak hiak, I'll be back on the seventh day."
Few of the huge number of photos taken in Sentosa during the previous weekend. For art's sake, I just post these especially interesting ones, taken in insect's kingdom. For 10 dollars, u can study so much about insects, minus the risks of being molested by them. Even cockroaches at home, dissect them. This one, I tink is a grasshopper. Somehow, I see a chimp face in the close up. 7th month, don stare too much. :)
Oh yah, sentosa's beach has good anatomy references too. Cheers~

Skywatchers


Above the jungles of South Africa, tribes spoke of flying gnomes known locally as
"Riders in the Clouds". These fearsome deities glide among the clouds and was said to struck their victim with their poisoned spears. They are generically engineered by Nibirians, the creators of Homo Sapiens. Their true purpose was to act as sentries above humankind, ever sniffing at any signs of disobedience. Their flying vehicles are very well hidden among the clouds, which would explain why they are always percieved to ride on the clouds. In the day most of them shy away from human eyes, at dusk they roam in the skies, emitting eerie glow above the jungle.
