Updates!

I still can't believe it, this spirited away fanart got me a DD on Deviantart! Those who don't know, DD means daily deviation, pretty much means best picture of the day( I think) but it sure made me so happy. And messages kept flooding in, which is a good thing, I love it when people comment on my works, or send me some words of encouragement. I really appreciate them.

So, since then, I've got quite a few more new commission requests coming in, and also some new clients, which means more work YAY! I accepted them all and then realize wonder "what have I got myself into?!" at the moment I've got 12 projects to work on, and that means no sleep for me.

This Elf character painting is originally done for an eBook on "How to draw Fantasy Character", 15 of the most common fantasy character included, each will have written tutorials and step by step drawings. However, I do not agree with some terms in their contract, so I didn't sign it, and rejected the job. As much as want to work on them, I simply cannot sign that contract. It pretty much takes away all artist's right and there's even a chance to not get paid at all, or not have your name written as the artist/author. Many more terms in that contract that are so ridiculous, Jaan was saying that he was surprise such contract exist!
 

Anyhow, I still wanted to work on some tutorials for you guys, and free of charge. I want to share them. This painting is not finished, but due to busy schedule I don't think I will be able to finish it anytime soon. So when i get the chance, I will, and will also work on the step by step tutorial.



This is not finished either, same reason due to busy schedule, I can't finish it till in a few month time. It's Pans labyrinth fan art if you're wondering :)

Finally, this, My first painting completed with my new cintiq. Should've posted this up ages ago but I forgot I had a blog..>_<
 
Cheers guys, and have a nice day!
