31st December 2008

In a few hours, its gonna be a whole new year. The new Muslim year has already started so what's the fuss about? =p

Resolutions! Anybody got them? Me nah? I just make long term plans.

Speaking of which I don't really quite remember what I did during the course of the year. O.O

Tony Roma's...

...was delicious! Except for the Buffalo Wings. The vinegar and garlic taste was too sharp making it just not nice. Really. That's what I love about being in the UAE. I get to eat things which are not halal in most of the other parts of the world. 8D

So, in a few hours I'll be flying off back to Singapore. Flight's gonna be at 10am, so gotta be at the airport by 7am, meaning i gotta wake up in 3 hours time. =_= Will reach Sg at 2125. So if anybody is thinking of fetching us, you can just come by! XD

Hopefully I've packed correctly.

Gah! I forgot to buy the sweets! Dx

ShoppingShoppingShoppingShoppingShopping

*photoshops* 8D

Nah. Meh...

Me is currently at Fujairah. Where you ask? Its an hour and a half Drive away from Dubai. =3 Came with my sis, living with my father now. Holidays are fun!!!

On a side note... I love spending for clothes in Dubai! XD So Different from SG!!

EOY EOY EOY

Rawr for EOY! Things I've learnt while making the Cao Ren costume:
1) Using craft foam as platemail is just asking for it as its not heavy enough just to weigh it down.
2) Wire mesh works wonders and you can go bbq later! 8D
3) Ugh... I need a better medium to work with... T_T

Things to do: REDO COSTUME to make it more EPIC!

I NEED TO DO MY WEAPON!!!

Its 3:06 am...

Experts and teachers say that when working with metal, you should wear safety glasses, have proper equipment, practice proper safety.

Hell. I'm glad I wear glasses... and that resourcefulness and sheer grit can get you anywhere.

Might post up pics later.

Of White sticky liquids...

Talking about white glue that is! ^^ Currently doing my DW6 Cao Ren costume. Honestly, I don't really know HOW to make the armour parts. I just make it up as I go along. Plans never really did work for me. ^^U

I just bought the chicken wire (Everyone avoided me as I walked through the market). A nice woman helped me pick out the scissors/shears to cut it. Now then... How can I not make it poke me too much.. Hrmz...

Now playing...

Samurai Warriors: State of War, PSP

Fun...

I hate the hardworking a-hole I am right now...

Heh Heh... This morning I just finished my first and only paper for the semester, Civil Engineering Management. Not bad. Most of the questions are from the tutorials and the past year papers, so it wasn't that bad. But still, I hope to get at least an A (aiming high here) XD

So, I treated myself to a beef bento at the Quad. It was delish! Then me being me, needed to do my AFA job. =_=;;; I bought the envelopes (A4 and A3) sigh... Just now I exhausted my yellow ink with the printing for the lil rabbit. Not bad la. Cutting... Getting like 9 pieces per page. I cut them individually an now I'm sticking on the pieces onto the envelopes.

I hate myself sometimes, but I love this aspect of me who just needs things to be done quickly.

Argh... and tml I'll be doing my Yoshimoto baldpatch. @_@ Another trip to Artfriends for the liquid latex. oh my wallet...

Art dumpage!!! *dances*

Been feeing down the past week. Sick and so completely unmotivated to do anything. Anyway. Had the KW gathering last week with Insp. Chin and Crim and Yame. Fun people. Walked around a bit. Then met up with Huijie after work. We broke fast at Marina square Food loft! X3~~~

Anyway. Gifts for the people that came. Crim got the Orochi cards while we got the MO character pins. They're so beautiful!!! I also got the DW5: Empires notebook from Chin. The cover is so nice with Ah Liang on top, Yi-chan below and Yuyu in between! >=D

For the month...

Happy Ramadhan.

This is the month where you can truly be yourself.

Pray sincerely and avoid anything that can make your fast worth less than it should.

Of Genshiken and lifearts and me

Its 4am here and I just finished reading Genshiken. Granted its not the kind of manga I usually read but reading about the many antics of the "Society for the Study of Modern Visual Culture" or easier known as Genshiken, has reminded me of my days in the Lifearts club.

Yes, I do drop by the clubhouse these days, but I refer to the times when I was there. How I joined the club. How I dragged Rahayu along. How I met Hong Chen, Richard, Bryan, Huijie, Maurice, Jojo, Simon, Grace, Shaun, Kelvin, Pearl, Xiao Hui and Jarvis, Jeff, Cheryl, Pei Boon and so many others as I practically lived in the clubhouse in my days at SP.

Reading Genshiken is like a guilty pleasure for me as I'm not as an acclaimed otaku as the rest of my friends are. I'm more into manga. But as I read the comic, the number of references which I understood made me feel ashamed and proud at myself. And thus I continued to the next chapter and onto the next and onto the next.

What I liked most about this is the many varieties of people inside the club. There's the plain but hardworking president-protag (Sasahara), the ultimate Yaoi fangirl (Oribe), the-I'm-just-hanging-around (Kasukabe). Then there's also the very enthusiastic but veryveryvery weird member (Kuchiki) which I think is a staple in every club. *laughs*

Those mentioned above are so very similar to the many personages that walked through the doors of the clubhouse. We all had our own interests in joining the club. But one thing for sure, none of us came out unchanged.

And we all became a family. I miss you guys. ^_^

When Cows bark...

My week has been hectic really. It was a depressing start with the death of my only grandfather left. We had to tell my parents where were on their nth honeymoon to Jordan. It was tough. Next day was the funeral which after that I had school.

I was moping around a bit, still putting my feelings in order. When I went to the lt for tutorial I was told I was an hour late. GOD! So I had like 2 hours until my next lecture. Btw, my schedule sucks. Start very late.

On Wednesday, I had my right bottom wisdom tooth removed. It was causing me nerve damage and a heck of a tooth ache. So yeah. The excavation cost me $400 but I can talk easily on that day itself. So I feel that he did do a good job. No bruising at all. Food for me though has been soft foods cause I can't open big and my other side hurts more than my stitched gums.

Thursday. School again but I had a meeting in the afternoon before my class.

Friday, today. Felt like more than a week has passed. My mother came back from Dubai this morning. Did a little research for my FYP (I think I found some things!) And went shopping with my family.

Plans:
Saturday. Mage as usual and date Huijie. *loves*
Sunday. Mage again to teach. New people, new faces and same hyper kid.

Steam Punk Quiz!

Your result for The Steampunk Style Test...

The Air Pirate

14% Elegant, 41% Technological, 23% Historical, 52% Adventurous and 60% Playful!

You are the Air Pirate, the embodiment of steampunk fantasy. Admittedly, you would probably be more comfortable in a pulp adventure or Eberron fantasy, but you are able to find your niche in the less serious side of the genre. You are probably somewhat light on your technological accessories, but the ones that you do carry have a roguish dash to them. Your clothes are most likely styled after those of Victorian aristocrats or loyal airship officers, the better to show off your wealth and the spoils of your raids. Chances are you prefer to be flashy and extravagant, and frock coats are perfect.

Of slacking around the house

Havent been updating this place for some time. Just that I've been lying around the house the past few days, slacking. I told myself to do my report. But after that draft, I kinda lost my steam. Sigh...

On the costume front! Really lost my steam here. I mean, I was honestly working hard making that armour skirt and then suddenly after cosfest I just didn't feel like working on it anymore. Whats more, whe I last tried it on, It didn't fit!!!

Yes! It didn't fit! Not because it small. It's because I lost weight recently due to me being sick and my back being what it was until the urut session. Seems like when I weighed myself, I found myself at 67kg. Well that was 2 weeks ago. Now I think it's back to 70. But my waistline's gone down. and I have to redo the skirt because of this.

I don't know whether to be happy or sad bout my weightloss... Sigh...

Viking Quiz!!!

Got this from sarahcoldheart! At least I'm a slave! XD my results

Your result for The Viking Age Persona Test...

Gothi

You scored 34% leadership, 25% spirituality, 9% violence and 31% intelligence!

LEADER - SPIRITUAL - PEACEFUL - EDUCATED

Gothar were the priesthood of heathen Scandinavia. You are the spiritual backbone of your society. Only you can intrepret the gods' will for your jarl. You are the first person people will come to any time they want to do anything from building a new shed to invading Denmark. May the gods smile upon you.

Believe it if you want.. XD

Update today...

I'm frustrated... My GOD! My costume cannot be completed because the cloth wasn't enough. So I gotta get more... 3 yards more in fact. I should have told her that I didn't care for the pattern much, just how good the exposed parts looked. @_@

And my helmet... just for a reference... how should I fix it? btw, I feel lucky that the craft foam did not dissolve away when I spray painted. I can't say much about my foam head though... its pitted away horribly!

Mayday! Mayday!!!

My helmet is SHINY!!! >_< Its not supposed to be!!! I'll need to layer it with craft foam it seems...
@_@

Halp!

*sings*Its five in the morning...

And I'm still awake...

Was rushing to complete my Pella costume for tomorrow... LATER but shit happens and foam mail I was doing was short. I could cut out somemore but my grey paint is finished with no replacement. Thought I had enough for the whole bleedin' skirt but not freaking enough... Still not enough.. sigh.. I give up on Pella for now... I can complete by cosfest and I'll have 2 costumes then. Sigh...

Okuni, I'm left with her accessories. And that headband of her's is a bit irritating since right now I have no access to gold coloured paint or even yellow.. See whether I can find anything or not...

My love.. has died...

My love for craft foam that is! At first, I was like.. WOW! Its so easy to use! So easy to cut into so many shapes yadda yadda yadda... Then I couldn't make the helmet into what I wanted... and so back to good old papier mache..

ARGH!!! Pella costume has to be done soon!.. If not I'll have to go as Okuni... but her clothes are still at the tailors... *cries in frustration*

Btw.. Good morning.

Bloopers FTW!!!

Okay.. maybe I'm bored. But this is still so fun! XD

Star Wars Episode 1


Episode 2


Episode 3


Episode 4/5/6

Its fanart dammit!

I'm really hyper from that concoction I made out of Coke light and Redbull. Sleep is ou of reach and lying still to sleep would be impossible. So my hands were itchy. Actually wanted to play MO but... I decided to finish off this piece first. Not my best but I LOVE IT!

Title: Hrrrnnh!!?!
Fandom: DW6
Character: Gan Ning
Comment: Ever since Gan Ning changed in DW6, I've had him visualized to be like Bossa Nova (I forgot his name! :lol:) in Ouran. Thus, the sharp chin and the scary look. This is just a pencil sketch I'm not sure whether to colour this or not. Hrmz...
Links(s): pencil sketchy

Critiques would be VERY welcome!

I got my new tee!!! *loves*

Thanks you Sharkrobot for your prompt shipping and for the free shipping here!

I finally got my package for 4 t-shirts today since I was too lazy to pick it up 2 days ago. I thought like Threadless, they'll send in an envelope or something. But they gave me a bigass box. The tees filled just 1/4 of a the box. Well, at least I can recycle the box. =_=

Pic!!!



Decepticons rule!!!

The other 3 are... well... silly. XD I'll post pictures when I feel it I guess.

I miss the mountains...

I'm back from Korea and boy! did I have fun! ... Though... travelling with the tour is tiring by itself =_= one reason why I've been sleeping lots the past 2 days. A good thing though, I'm able to get up earlier So mre work can be done!

yey...

Day 1: Reached Incheon Airport (HUGE place!), Went skiing at the Indoor skiing place at Tiger stadium or something (Yame did a somersault to the snow floor. And skiing's hard...). Had a vegan lunch and something or another... I need to recall these things So i'll write later @_@
Oh! I forgot we went to the central mosque! Its located at the very top of the hill but it was a good view after the long walk. ^_^

Anyway. Pictures. XD

































The engrish there is very good... I'm still trying to figure these out.. XD

Hmmm

Have I forgotten anything? o.o

Taxi's coming soon...

Hmmm

Holiday!!

I'M GOING TO KOREA NEXT WEEK!!!!!!!!!!
And it'll be a proper holiday, not just a visit to my father in Fujairah or going across the causeway or something like that. YES!

I'll update with photos or something when I get back. ^_^

Reminds me... I need to get a bigger bag. My overnight bag just won't do. o_O

I suck at design...

Title: Catch the Manga Wave! (darn that was cheesy)
Type: Original Art
A/n: I spent too long on this so I don't really care much anymore. The artwork is not one of the best But I still like it. The left hand killed me. Then I forgot the arm. Honestly, how would a person draw it out? Or.. make the sleeve shorter (which I inked in by mistake actually) and give more flesh? Feet.. Wrong angle for the manga pen which is by itself... too bent.. >_<
Links: Original art The poster for this

Fanart!!111!1oneelevelone!!!!

I've been an avid reader of Reallife comics for a long time. I think since dear Huijie introduced it to me. Mmmm... I forgot... Anyway, Greg has made his 2000th strip which is quite an accomplishment! I wish to create a webcomic which is as successful as his in the future. And... on to my entry!

Title: Happy 2000th strip!
Fandom: Reallifecomics webcomic
Characters: Greg, Liz, Dave, Tony
A/n: Hmmm coloured again with copics. I like the colouring but the art... So many proportional and basic discrepancies! ugh!
Links: So real they come to life!


PS: Drinking 1L of milk is not recommended for the (slightly) lactose intolerant! >.< My stomach rumbles!!!

But did he have the right to love her? His very feeling for her put her into danger. What if the next time the need took him Elana was the nearest living human, the nearest vessel filled with warm, renewing blood?

Haha! A whole paragraph! What else would you expect from a teenage novel? XD If it was Lord of the Rings, it'll be different! Anyway, the book I quoted is "The Vampire Diaries: The Awakening". Typical teenage stuff. Not that I've read it yet... so that was a spoiler?!!? o.O

Just playing with Copics at the M.A.G.E store. Bernie was good enough to allow me to play with them and to test the copic paper she got. ^_^

Mostly sketches none too good. Though I love the 2nd pic! XD

A dark elf smoking!?! Preposterous!
Something tells me I love this pic too much
I know his face looks weird... AFTER I inked it in.
Just listening to my music... Of course its the singles from Gravitation!

Crits and comments heavily welcomed! ^_^

Sketch!

I should be doing research for my FYP but hey... I wanna draw dangit! So here I go!

Title: Touch of Class
Fandom: none (original art)
Medium: 2B mechanical pencil, touched up in PS.
A/n: This came from my need to draw more girls. My boys are okay.. but girls... Seems like its okay. My sis says that her hips are large. So what do you guys think? Also, I should not be using mechanical pencil for my shading, but I didn't really bother as it wasn't really my concern for now. So tell me where should I improve on?
Also, I dislike showing off too much skin so yeah, hot pants, stockings and... something... I don't even know it myself!
Links: How do you like your cocktails?

Also, currently reading Twilight. I like the characters though the style of writing is not much to my liking.

BAKAMEGA!

Enjoy the randomness!

Pencil art!

Result of fatigue, sleepiness and and overactive mind.

Title: School scene
Fandom: None (Original art)
Medium: 2B mechanical pencil
A/N: I was bored when I did this, thus all that hatching, shading etc was done by hand. Done at night in camp.
Pics: I was out of ideas for the hair of the one sitting, so that's why he looks like Cao Pi...


Title: YAOI! Harem YAOI!
Original Art
Medium: 2B mechanical pencil
A/n: Despite it being 5 am and having a night walk before, I couldn't sleep. Instead I got oh so many ideas in my mind. This being one of them! XD I could change it to have DW or SW characters... Hmm.. maybe I would. >=3
Pics: The story beind them may soon be written...

Bikini and G-String are OK , But Using Hijab/Veil is Bad?

I am so... In love!!! Koei Warriors released the DW6 Databook scans in very high res. I think I'm done downloading it. Since it's like a multi release with so many pics, the site slowed down so much so that i get blank pages. Not that is not a norm for me with my bad connection sometime but it was bad. Anyway... been making some edits to the databook scans. Just because the white line is just so horrigible.

When the man, Bern, interviewed me for the article, I didn't really expect him to use the pic I asked Yame to take on Monday. Movie fandom for us cosplayers. Sarahcoldheart has more commentary on her livejournal. Go take a look! *pushes you*

scans from her post:







I'm the pink blob you see up there. XD

*yaoi senses tingling*

Hmmm... Is it just me or does DW6 has a lot of hint-age of yaoi goodness? XD

For example:

Lu Xun and Sun Quan. Ummm about this, the chemistry between them is unmistakeable, neither is the unneeded touches. ~_^

Lu Meng and Gan Ning. They have a nickname for each other and they quarrel like an old couple. And... they touch each other way too many times.

Zhao Yun. It seems like he is suffering from a slight bit of the "broken wrist syndrome" with the line: "Neither my heart nor my spear is broken. I shall withdraw."

Sima Yi. My god! His moveset! Its just so... graceful! Ooooh Shake that ass more Yi-chan! Zhang He has been quite busy teaching you such beautiful moves!

Rebuild of Evangelion

Has anybody watched this yet?

Short review:
To watch this movie, the watcher must have at least some idea what Evangelion is. Cause it's just a compilation of the anime series with the frills cut out. If you have watched the series, you'll enjoy the technical scenes with remade graphs and animation. If you haven't, you're (not) alone with the confusion.

Long review:
The movie is as the title says: A rebuild of Evangelion. The series is taken, pulled apart, scenes remade with modern CG, the frills taken out and it all put together to make the movie. As a fan of the series, I enjoyed the seemingly different but similar scenes of how the system fails, the little scenes included of the strategy planning for the fortress angel and Shinji's travels to Tokyo-2 and back.

As the series starts, Shinji arrives in Tokyo-III just in time for an angel attack. Angel number 3 (for which shall be henceforth known as No. 3 cause for my life I can't remember its real name) is plummeted by the tax payers' money and revels in it while Shinji remains confused, wimpy and rebellious to his father. After some mental manipulation by Gendou in the form of Bandaged!Rei, Shinji is literally pushed into the entry plug.

Same as the series right?

Well yeah. Nothing much more to add there. Except that new scenes that were inserted includes the outright declaration of Gendou's manipulation of his son for himself and an ending of (a naked) Kaoru's Entrance from out of the a box out of several boxes on the moon.

I say: do watch the movie if you want to relieve your memories of this excellent series. If you have yet to watch the series, You might be confused at the technological jargon used in the series but you can enjoy the techie bits of animation involved and Shinji's mental breakdown under his parent's pressure. Its $10 definitely well spent.

As a new generation of anime watchers view it, as what happened for the last time the Eva series was shown, I shall say it:

Let the Debate begin!


Edit!

Please try not to throw anything at the screen after the crooning of Utada-san just cause they didn't show the preview for the next part! Or the ending was that abrupt!

*indecisive*

One week holiday. Should I...

1) Do my literature review due 2 weeks ago?

I should stop doing this..

...making myself broke that is! XD

I just bought a copy of Dynasty Warriors: Gundam at $79. Then I heard that some of my friends at Mage got it for cheaper. Whatever. I'm fine with my copy and totally in LOVE with it. (I'm actually ignoring my sayang for 2D men in metal suits) XD

So far I've played Kamille in Zeta in the Official mode. Finally finished it due to one irritating person called Scirocco. And I SWEAR I will forever have a grudge against Baund Docs. Damn Jerid.

And I've touched Heero in his ever flashy Wing Zero. Pity not Kai version, but hey. Its still fun to play him. Yusof though, finished him. Pity.. oh well. I can always play him again myself.

Oh yeah I've got so many costumes stacked this time round! Its gonna be Fun! (Seeing how I'll be cutting cost on food for myself this year just for the costumes and my weight!)

List of costumes:

Orochi Warriors:
- Okuni
- Yoshimoto Imagawa

Gundam:
- Char in his various costumes. This is for a small group unless people wanna do other characters

Harry Potter:
- Movie coming out in November 2008. So... I'm hoping to cosplay at least something! XD
