A big request from a fan

Posted on | Thursday, May 17, 2012 | 2 Comments

A few weeks ago, I got a request from a fan who wanted me to draw her and Taylor Swift. I hesitated a bit because I have my doubts to myself if I could even draw Taylor Swift. After some encouragement, I did try to sketch it and came up with this:

Then revisions came in and this is what I came up next:

So far so good and I’m on the right track. I do hope that Andrea will like the drawing of Taylor Swift and I know she’s a big fan of her. (You are still my big fan of Pigtails, right?)

Without further ado, here’s the final product.

Enjoy and I hope you keep on being my fan, too. :)

Yes, laugh when you have problems. After having a horrible day, either you pout and rant or perhaps after doing those stuff, you take a breather and just laugh it all out.

There are instances that when this situation has passed, you’ll tell this story and it’ll be one of those moments that you’ll laugh it out loud with friends.

Pigtails Advice for Guys

I know you’re all familiar with the game Super Mario. I grew up playing that game until I stumble upon this funny quote that I read a yesterday. With that, I just had to incorporate it with my Pigtails design and make it more cute and funny.

Perhaps guys you can be encourage by this quote, “All guys should learn from SUPER Mario. No matter how far their princess is,  they should go after her.”

Painting Pigtails Style

Posted on | Tuesday, May 1, 2012 | No Comments

My first take on painting Pigtails on paper. Yes, it’s true. No Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop to aid me in this. I tried my very best so please be kind. (hehe).

I did try to sketch one of my characters on paper and pencil to make sure I get almost the same style as the ones on Illustrator. It’s not as perfect as I thought but I’m very proud of it (for my first try).

I’m not a Fine Arts graduate (obviously hahaha) but I’m trying to give it a go at it. Maybe a bit of practice on sketching and painting should give me some time to get it right. If you look at it closely, you’ll see the pencil marks that I haven’t got around to erasing it.

The medium I used is watercolor (the kid stuff one) and just mixing the colors did give the color that I want (almost) and 2 paint brushes. :)

Time to relax a bit

Working so hard in the past weeks with my job and I think I really need a break. So this coming weekend, I do need to chill and relax and hang out with my friends. Maybe watch a movie.

Summer is here in the Philippines, everyone is thinking about going to the beach or the mountains for to stay cool from the hot weather. Others like me, just want to chill.
