Coming soon: my work-outfits, DIY & sketches

Image
EN I'm releasing a sigh because next week is my one week off for the spring holiday in Holland! I've been working fulltime 5 days in a row and so I'm quite happy with this break. I'm planning to work on my art works because I have been missing doing them and posting them. There's also one topic I've been missing writing and posting about it too: DIY's and that's why I am happy that I'll be releasing some blogpost about DIY and even artwork very soon.   NL Even een diepe zucht slaken want ik heb eindelijk een week vrij (want voorjaarsvakantie)! Ik werk sinds het begin van 2017 fulltime van 5 dagen in de week. Ik vind dat ik best blij mag zijn met deze break, want dan kan ik even mijn eigen ding doen zoals werken aan mijn art. Daarnaast kan ik niet wachten met het posten van DIY blogpost want dat is alweer een tijdje geleden. Ja, ja, ik hou me eraan om minstens 1 DIY post per maand te  plaatsen!

Miniso vs Copic markers with Inktober

Image
EN It's almost the end of October but there's a challenge that is still hip and happening in social media land called hashtag Inktober, woo! Basically you suppose to draw something entirely with ink every day of October. Which in my case I have amazingly failed this challenge because I've only come up with 4 drawings in total. Sigh. Blame time, work and well I'll be honest: laziness too. I hope you like my 4 quick Inktober doodles though. If there's something that Inktober taught me is that the color black is not a scary color (i s black even a color? ) but a bold color that gives drawings a nice pop. I should try to incorporate black more often in my sketches. Futhermore, the MINISO versus Copic markers. When I was in HK, I've discovered an amazing lifestyle brand called 'MINISO' and it's a budget brand too! They sell similar looking Copic markers but cheaper. In this post I'd like to give you my thoughts and my first use experience bet...

EN Hello Monday, I have new artworks and lots of sketches and scribbles for you.      NL Dag maandag, ik heb nieuwe tekeningen en heel veel schetsen en krabbels voor jou. ❝Zweef de cursor voor Nederlandse vertaling! Lovegood Rae  for Rae from Love From Berlin Scribbles Lately I`ve been experimenting with the technique `watercolor` by using a water brush pen. Clearly I need a lot of practice still but luckily I have bought this tutorial book that`s all about watercolor techniques! This is Harley Quinn, a DC comic character. Not sure if I`ll finish this unfinished piece. Inspired by Instagram feed: French macarons with ice cream.

EN Another batch of new sketches for you art lovers! This time lots of game characters involved as I got a few requests and commissions here and there too which I love to receive! Game characters are not my usual thing to draw and so these were pretty much out of my comfort zone drawings. Yet they were challenging and fun to draw! I really should consider myself getting a drawing tablet too. The drawing 'Anže' which is colored in PS was also done by mouse and the pentool and it was really time consuming work. So I am really considering getting a drawing tablet. And of course I have new pixel art for you! Please scroll down to check it out! NL Alweer een verse lading met schetsen voor jullie kunstliefhebbers! Dit keer heb ik veel game figuren getekend vanwege de verzoeken en commissions die ik zo nu en dan ontvang. Heel leuk! Maar ook uitdagend want game figuren is niet echt mijn tekenstijl maar desondanks had ik veel plezier ze op papier te zetten. Ik moet ...

EN Another blogpost of my most recent sketch works: Royal Bubble Tea, Pia and Ruby. I often give my artworks girl names when I can't come up with a proper different name. NL Alweer een blogpost met mijn meest recente tekeningen: 'Royal Bubble Tea', Pia and Ruby. Wanneer ik geen goede naam kan bedenken voor mijn schetsen dan krijgen ze vaak meisjesnamen.   'Royal Bubble Tea' 'Pia' 'Ruby'

EN Here are some new sketches I’ve been working on lately and other than that I have pixelart for you! Woo! New pixelart because lately I’ve been very motivated to pixel up new stuff after I have made none new pixelart for years. Hopefully I didn’t lose my mojo! More pixelart at: Deviantart // Carbonmade .   NL Hier zijn alweer nieuwe schetsen die ik onlangs gekrabbeld heb op papier. Daarnaast heb ik ook nog pixelart in petto voor jullie! Nieuwe pixelart want de laatste tijd ben ik ontzettend gemotiveerd om nieuwe pixelart te maken. Ik heb al jaren geen pixelart meer gemaakt. Hopelijk ben ik ze niet verleerd. Meer pixelart vind je op: Deviantart // Carbonmade . WIP Body and costume study. Lately I`ve been into game costumes, so much details going on! Freaky Hand study. The way she hold the book is weird, I know I know. ...

EN On my last sketching post I’ve mentioned about another sketching that I was working on and I am happy to say it’s done and ready to be published in today’s post! And today’s piece of scribble and doodling is a cute female portrait with glasses because I want to master drawing glasses on faces and this piece has been a good and fun practising. I call it: 4 Eyes wondering. NL In mijn vorige schets bericht heb ik jullie hopelijk een beetje lekker gemaakt met een schets waarmee ik nog bezig was en vandaag kan ik deze aan jullie presenteren want hij is klaar! Deze schets is een leuk portret van een jonge vrouw met een bril, want brillen tekenen is best wel moeilijk en deze schets was een heerlijke fijne oefening geweest. Ik noem het: 4 Eyes wondering. Instagram is my source of inspirations for many of my sketching and I found this example model ( Kakiuchi Ayami) at #SOUPMAGAZINE.

EN The sketching below is one of my most recent work and it’s a finished one too! What! Finished? That’s so rare because most of the time I set aside the wip’s and sort of ‘forgot’ to finish it. Remember I told you guys I was going to be more determined in my sketching? I’m holding on to it guys! The title of the sketching is a bit cliché but I like it: Summer Sprung 2015 . Basically it supposedly represents a summer full of life, freedom and happiness. Scroll down and please tell me what you think! Here’s what I think: I am satisfied but I hate her abnormal long left arm.     NL De schets hieronder is een van mijn meest recente werk die ook nog afgemaakt is. Wat! Afgemaakt? En dat is zeldzaam want meestal bij al mijn wip’s ( work in process ) leg ik ze opzij met de bedoeling die later af te maken maar dat kwam er nooit echt van in want ik ‘vergeet’ ze vaak. Ik heb jullie toch verteld over mijn vastberadenhei...
