[365-19] Rush

Quick mouse doodle because 1. picking up Dad from airport ate a chunk out of my evening free time, and 2. tabby was acting like a freaking cat true to its name.

Speaking of Inception, I did have a dream within a dream last night.

Depraved indifference



Quick doodle by mouse with all messiness covertly disguised to look like they're intended. All one layer on PaintBBS, 1 hour exact, see animation.

I stand by all previous statements re: mouse vs. tablet. Mouse can and should be able to achieve similar levels of work as any tablet, only at a slower rate. The only limitation lies in drawing freehand lines in one stroke, but even a tablet doesn't always get that down as smoothly as one can on paper, so that's a moot point. Also because of the time/patience issue with mouse, less effort tends to be exerted (especially post-exposure to tablet use)...and laziness is forever a human element that shouldn't be blamed on the tools.

GUILTY NONCHALANCE

NEVER BEFORE SEEN FOOTAGE

Well, isn't this kind of embarrassing...it's already February. I'll turn into Slowpoke at this rate. :D WHICH IS WHY I THINK IT A GOOD IDEA TO POAST SHIT THAT I BELIEVE IS FOUND NOWHERE ELSE ON THE INTERNETS (or at least haven't had much exposure at ALL)...DATING TO VERY DAMNED OLD INDEED. LIKE, PRE-STUY, PRE EVEN TINA OLD. Point and laugh at your leisure. I don't really suppose I'm feeling all that correct tonight, given what has been drawn and poasted here earlier just now. Crap crap crap.

Ladies and gentlemen, behold Jing's first digital work (OH MS PAINT) ever:
December 26, 2002. And then,

January 25, 2003. In case people can't read. I suppose date isn't really relevant past those two, but I'll try my hardest to keep things chronological. (It's like 3AM right now, leave me alone.)

July 17, 2004. First time I ever went to Ohio, between freshman and sophomore year. I stayed with my dad for two weeks and had literally nothing better to do all day except soaking everything in Half Price Books into the marrow of my bones. I was up to CoT (book 10 of the WoT) back then...for the first time. And, for whatever reason, I decided to slap an Aiel (EXACT IDENTITY SPOILER-CENSORED) and Ayami Kojima together. I believe the notes are actually my plotting out how I'd have it as an oekaki. >_>; Of course it did happen, and of course it kind of phail'd, and of course I'm not about to show you that just now. Dig through fujou at thy own risk.

March 18, 2005. "Ganelon." One of those unfinished pieces on Goddess that is now lost in oblivion. Other than the ridiculously unfitting head, I think the anatomy is still something to be proud of from back then. Another thing I was very pleased with was the water effect. Too bad I haven't gone back to it much, if at all.

June 28, 2005. "Durga." Haah, back when I still believed in mousing my lines. Castlevania AoS monster influence...though to be technically correct, I had the color scheme of Kali (mistranslated as "Curly" in the game) in mind. Jing's first rather voluptuous figure, except for the ridiculously thin waist that also happens to be off. I think one thing in common with all the shittles I'm poasting here is that I'm HEAVILY inclined to go back to every single one of these and make them RIGHT, or COMPLETE. >=/ Except I never do.

January 23, 2006. "Stalk." Jing gets Open Canvas from teh rora. 8D I remember being extremely amazed by its "pressure sensitivity" available for mouse, and this was exclusively playing around with that.

December 2, 2006. "Water." ...And then I became incredibly guilty-feeling for a while for having something other than Oekaki and yet never using it to make something more serious. =/ I suppose this was my favorite out of all those other half-assed attempts. Very nice...texture. The one thing I perhaps miss about OpenCanvas. Then again, I'm sure at least one of Artweaver's brushes can achieve similar effects, and I'm suffering from the same symptom of never getting around to seriously play with it. @_@


Speaking of water, I missed one. D: ANACHRONISM LE GASP September 3, 2005. I've made several attempts to recreate this nice atmosphere through the years, but something is always off and eventually given up. Perhaps it's the hand-drawn Paint BBS white 1-pixel water color texture...or perhaps it's the pond. Simple, but apparently impossible to reproduce. XD I still remember that day: Jing scraping her little toe against the wall against all odds, and rora asking her out to windowshop at that exact moment or so. Trying on skirts on 86th Street. Dropping by my mother's store and catching her very, very surprised. At me, at a friend, at my bloody toe.


...Moving on.

"Mu." (And originally with Shaka in mind on the right...except the resemblance is so terrible his name didn't end up making it into the title at all. *tear?*) I remember when I was madly obsessed with crazy face angles at one point. The pointing-down period didn't last all that long...but here's my reminder. 8D Also my single Saint Seiya fanart...and a pairing, no less??!! OMFG what. Where's my Soma x Genya? T_T




January 28, 2008.
"Rip." (As in, Rip Van Winkle. As in, HELLSING.) I have a very vague impression that I may have shown this to Jarek during one of our very earliest days back then. (2008? Le GASP!) In fact, I think I scanned it at all because Jarek said he wanted to see what I doodled. Hmm. In any case, special because it's perhaps the first Hellsing-related thing drawn since freshman year. That is, the OTHER freshman year...the special one. At Stuy.

Four years into the future...



March 9, 2008.
Title as indicated. I just noticed the dates I've been using in this post are dates shown on the computer...meaning the day I scanned, or the day I last modified. Which can mean a lot of them are off and age a mystery unless it's a signed sketch. Hoo... -_-; Anyway. Boredom during tutoring of that Korean girl. There's been more, but she usually whisks away the originals...I think including this one. Scanned and thus saved because I actually liked it and had bothered with references. This I should definitely do more often. Also BOOBIES


April 13, 2008.
And MOAR HIPS AND BOOBIES 8D INDEED Like, Oh, my gwad!~ *heart heart heartle much?

(In actuality, I believe this was the first thing I actually drew with my tablet. By which I mean it's not a bunch of squiggly lines and my name written over and over in various pressures and all that goodness. YES I KNOW THERE ARE STILL SQUIGGLY LINES IN THERE BUT UH THEY ARE QUITE THE ARTFUL DON'T YOU AGREE? I LOVE YOU LAVENDER CURVES)





...The end.
