Fanart: Uchiha Kyoudai

 This is the main lineart, done with my new Derwent charcoal pens. Sasuke was easier and looks like him, but took more time. Itachi was faster, but I'm not overly satisfied with what he looks like in this one.
With the shading, I did try to make it more realistic, using two different Asian singers as models, Jin Akanishi for Sasuke and Jun Matsumoto for Itachi. Sasuke looks jsut picture perfect, but I failed with Itachi. It wasn't until I had fixed it with hairspray, when I realized that I could have improved Itachi's face quite a deal, had I shaded more from between his eyes, which are too far set anyway. Damn. Well, better luck next time.

Sundye Shurikens (2013)

Another sundye, this one has the same red that the Stratovarius bag. The shurikens I made with paper, which wasn't the best for this, as you can see, but I kinda like that misty look about them, it gives them some motion.

Fanart: Sundye SHIELD logo (2013)

I don't remember did I paint or spray this with the purple, but I slammed the plastic cutout logo on top of this and let it dry. The color escapes the offending item on top of it, resulting this lighter shade.

Fanart: Stratovarius shopping bag (2013)

If only I had made this earlier, this might have ended up in the Stratovarius video, but alas, this is a good shopping bag nonetheless. Painted thoroughly with the self mixed paint, then hung to dry, which resulted in those interesting lighter parts. Then did the compass star and logo with cutouts and the back is once again done with FinnFoam stamps.

Phoenixe Imperiale (2013)

This is so far the only designed logo for the band I'm in, Phoenixe Imperiale. Note that the DeviantArt watermark is my own, because I'm updating this blog as a part of a school assignment, which means I'm in the classroom, using my school issued laptop, whereas all my arts are in the desktop computer on the other side of the yard, in the dorm.

Orange ball of fluff (2013)

Something quick I made with colored pencils as a birthday gift to my gramps. It's done in a hurry, but damn if the coloring of the chest and paws ain't my best.

WIP: Pillowcase (2013)

A small pillowcase I've printed using "seula", which is a bit lengthy to explain and I don't have time for that at the moment. The leopard in the pillowcase is not designed by me, but the leaves I did carve from FinnFoam myself.

Hana (2013)

Pearly fabric paint, or rather, paste. Painted with a brush. The light green is matte, which I'm not a big fan of.

Fanart: Stratovarius apron (2013)

Apron I made both for myself, and for the Stratovarius video competition. I didn't win the competition, unlike my fiancée, whose self painted tank top won and made it to the video, but I did get my name to video (credited as myself, not with my artist/penname). I cook a lot, despite not being a good cook, this is handy.

Sprayed orange paint all over this, then added salt to give it a lively feel and after it dried, stamped those Stratovarius logos all over it. Needless to say, foods I cook are a lot heavier now.

The Lost Lady (2013)

I took this from my DeviantArt page. It took me a week to draw this, every blade of grass in drawn individually. Coloring was equally rough work. Dress was also a pain in the hand to color.
