Going to chart my progress here - FMP 5th week

Totally disliked drawing "manga"/"cartoon" styled characters - they are butt ugly. Pardon me, but I think I do realism pretty well. (ok, not that well....YET. ahem.)

But for sake of ease of things - i don't have that much time (helloooo animation!?) - i will have to stick with something that I really don't have the hots for.

So John is finally out! After two/ three weeks of character development and ploughing through tons of manga/anime (ok tats just an excuse to read trashy manga), John finally looked ..... agreeable to me.

Though I think he can still do alot more development work - except that I have no friggin time anymore!

Now its onto the medium - poster paints, oil pastels, watercolour or good ol' vector??
Thank God for the light box!

Also, side note about the style - target audience is for kids age 6 to 12 years - so goodbye to my kind of style (mixed media, pencil and watercolour etc etc) and hello - everything bright, happy, vibrant and literal.

GROAN - but ok la, ENJOYING!!!

side note: totally inspired about learning corel painter. WHAHAHAHAHA!!!
