TT UNISON 2011 COLLECTION

最近加入了我朋友Feididi的label-UNISON, 開始策劃設計一系列的Tee。
新年來臨了﹐就出一系列中國風的Tee﹐有興趣就下訂單吧﹗

《Family》(left)
透露着強烈農曆新年氣息的一款。配合着2011的到來,彰顯新舊的融合,此款在細節上不乏發現中國傳統與西方潮流文化的混合。Family的含義廣泛,中國最傳統的精神就是-家,更描述着熱愛西方潮流文化的一族,不分國際/膚色,不分彼此-All In One Family的精神。Family 的字眼會採用3M反光材質,在晚上會讓字體更加特出,務必購入。
男裝 - S,M,L,XL
女裝 - S,M,L,XL
預購價格 Pre Order - RM50
店面價格 Retail - RM69.90

This design shows a strong Chinese New Year flavor. In conjunction with the arrival of 2011, and also to highlight the old and new culture mix, this version is added with typical Chinese traditional housing design, not forgetting to touch with some modern western culture.
The word FAMILY means a lot, as it was the most highly respected word among the Chinese - home. Family and Home are taken very seriously.
This design also shows the passion towards Western Culture, putting aside nationality or skin colour, and to spread the spirit of All In One Family concept.
The word Family will be printed with 3M reflective material, in order to outstand the wording at night.
It’s a must to purchase.

《OldBoy/老頑童》(right)
老頑童, 顧名思義就是“潮叔”!肖像以水墨畫出了雖年邁卻保持着赤子之心的神韻,行為舉止猶如孩童的老頑童。無論任何外在因素,還是時代的變遷,都無拘於世人眼光,保持着 UNISON 精神 - 无拘无束的玩,玩就是艺术!!
男裝 - S,M,L,XL
女裝 - S,M,L,XL
預購價格 Pre Order- RM50
店面價格 Retail - RM69.90


OLD-BOY (straight translation which means old man with a boyish attitude), also known as “潮叔” in Cantonese. The portrait was designed using Ink-Painting technique which portrays the old but boyish charm of the man that makes him acting very much like a kid.
Doesn’t matter of what matters or even the changing of times, this old man does not fear of how people look or think of him but shows the upright UNISON spirit, preserving the utmost attitude- unrestrained of having fun and enjoying life.
This is the true definition of FUN, where fun is a form of art.


《Born To Be Dope》
為了配合中西合併的主題,此款的靈感取自於美式硬派路線,略帶精緻的中國風圖式。
“We Born To Be Dope - We Take The Street” 展現了年輕一代放縱不羈的倔強精神。而鳳凰更位古代群鳥之首,禽中之王。配合全黑低調的搭配,印花材料方面採用了立體紋路技術,給予視覺和觸覺上的滿足。絕對是值得收藏的精工量版。
男裝 - S,M,L,XL
女裝 - S,M,L,XL
預購價格 Pre Order- RM60
店面價格 Retail - RM79.90

In order to merge the western and Chinese culture together, this form of style is inspired by American Hardcore which infused with some exquisite touch of the Chinese culture.
“We Born To Be Dope- We Take The Street” shows the stubborn and unrestraint attitude and mind of the younger generations.
And the phoenix too, resembles the king of all birds during the ancient times.
By using a full-black tone, the solid line technique being used to create the print to provide a perfect design and touch.
It’s a total worth for collection.

BabyQee Contest


Design this for Toy2R competition
Qee name: Face簿KaQee
Remark: Why Face簿KaQee? (FacebooKaki)
It's the monster that lives within us. The monster that can't turn away from the power of Facebook. The monster that is tied to the world of interconnectivity through just only a click of the mouse. The monster that lives to stalk others. The monster who woke up to a daily habit of opening the web page everyday. Just like the daily habit of brushing our teeth. We do it every morning and We do it every night. You think you can live without the monster in you. You turned away. You close your eyes.

But the monster haunts every second.

Even if you can live without the monster, the others won't let you live without it.

So.
Have you Face簿KaQee today?


Others competitor, all very awesome & creative!

Project Boxies

Boxies
Boxies is a translation from our childhood handmade costumes, that made out of the used carton boxes that once kept fruits from the market, the tv and vcr player boxes our parents kept folded. It is not just a character. It is something we turned into a 3D paper toy, which is not just a toy, but a companion. At the same time we tried to stay true to its original ideas which uses paper as the medium of the creation. Colors and personalized design has enhanced their individuality that formed a community of its own. A COMMUNITY OF BOXIES which speaks a language and a lifestyle of its own.




MyConcept: 沐猴而冠。 沐猴(猕猴)戴帽子﹐装成人的样子。比喻虚有其表﹐形同傀儡﹐不管和他說什麼都聽不進去的人。
Design this for Boxies Exhibition on Capsquare during Kuala Lumpur Design Week.

它名叫無極。至今五千餘年前﹐它出世在虛無的世界,代表著混沌初開的序幕。它也擁有著時空和時間的權力。它臉上長了個太極﹔太极生两仪(兩頭角)﹔两仪生四象(四只腳)﹔四象生八卦(八根手指)。宇宙间的万有、万事、万物,皆依这無極而变化。

His name is 'Wu Ji'. The core of this art revolves around the famous Chinese symbol- Yin and Yang (that represented the harmony and unity between complimentary opposites) and Ba Gua (eight diagrams used in Taoist cosmology to represent the fundamental principles of reality) that existed 5000 years ago. This object also holds the power and control of space and time which is also represented by the symbol - ∞Infinity. All elements of the world is highly influenced by 'Wu Ji'.

The Limitless (Wuji) produces the delimited, and this is the Absolute (the circle)
The Taiji produces two forms, that is yin & yang (2 horns).
The two forms produce four phenomena (4 legs).
The four phenomena act on the eight trigrams (ba gua) (8 fingers).

'如果‘

为何女人总爱‘如果’。 如答非所欲,何罪之有。。。男人以建邦立国为志,此乃天赐雄心 也。‘如’繁务缠身,何来毫分寸时说天道地之心?‘如’汝需吾时,吾舍身陪君子又何妨?即是‘如’,何恼哉?即是‘如’,何道哉?故不言尔。。。

好久没写部落格了,有点空闲就写点儿吧!

最近迷上了同事借给我的一本书“西藏生死书”。这是本教人面对死亡,从而懂得如何学习生活的人生哲学。除了艺术、漫画、中国历史书外,人生哲学是我满喜欢的题材,因我认为人生下来就是让我们学习如何做人。这书上说,做人有好人、坏人之分,只要你不想做坏人,第一步就是不要伤害别人。一旦你伤害了别人,到最后被伤害的总是你自己本身。这是我非常赞同的说法。例子像在公共场合抽烟人士一样,自己正在做个慢性杀手而不自知。抽烟不但伤害周遭的朋友,而且最后受苦的终究是自己。每个人都曾经犯过错,改变才是唯一正途,一切都不会太迟。这书本借了很久了,因还有几本书还要看,最后终于轮到它了。正在看的时候有点鸡皮疙瘩起来,太玄妙了!Shevy, 我还有一大半还没看,迟点再还你啊!谢啦!

对了,之前其实写了满多东西在另一个BLOG,有兴趣可以游览"http://et-wch.blog.friendster.com/"(eT相对论)一番!
本来打算把那边的文章搬过来,但那些都是满久的事情了。所以也就打消这个念头,得空再写写、练练文笔!哈哈!

Darkstalker Tribute

Darkstalker Tribute winner list!!~
http://www.udonentertainment.com/blog/?p=838#more-838

This holiday was quite boring, so i thought Ill just paste a little of the 'The Making' of my 'Darkstalker: Lantern of the Night' because im not on the list!Haha~
Hope u guys enjoy the process of my work as much as I did & feel more psyched about digital painting~ Wink

FIRST STEP
Got a hot Nescafe 3 in 1 'Rich' on my table. It has to be rich or nothing would feel the same. And lets not forget the music i like(both also very important!)

STEP 2
Opened a new file and started fast sketching on this character(Hsien-ko) & the background...


STEP 3
Next, I added another new layer for detail outline


STEP 4
Sketched some accessories for her...(i wan her to be a little bit punk)


STEP 5
The hardest part of the sketch is the hands coz this hand is also Hsien-ko's weapon in Darkstalker


STEP 6
I tried sketching a number of times and spend some time on this weapon but... +__@
then i stopped to get my inspiration by playing PSP Darkstalker ..


STEP 7
Finally, idea popped out when i won the game on my PSP. Each time Hsien-ko wins the match, she will put her hand on the weapon! Here it is, her new hand was born...


STEP 8
Because the new hand blocked the temple of my background ... so i drew a new one, at the same time, giving the readers a glint of where she actually stays...


STEP 9
My concept is she juz beat down ANAKARIS(Egypt King) and to represent that, i drew a bit his element on the floor to show that he lost in that match...The word '奠’ i drew with chinese traditional brush(毛笔) on paper & scanned it and adapted it onto the lantern & multiplied it.Done. This is my final sketching...


STEP 10
It's time to fill color on it! I put some basic color on her at first...(i only use this Tinting[basic round] to finished this work)


STEP 11
Actually i love to finish my main character first then continue with the background. Then I moved on with the shading...


STEP 12
Applied some dark & light color on her... (remember save it to another file for backup when u color it! to avoid unwanted incident, if not u need to draw again... Don't take this lightly because it happened to me once when i was finishing this work, luckily i got a backup psd file!)


STEP 13
Applied lighter color on her boobs...


STEP 14
Then I applied darker shadow on her hand coz the weapon blocked the lantern's light...


STEP 15
After finishing her body & her hand, then I moved on with her face... (because of the light from the lantern, I painted it from the bottom to the top. Its easier for me to apply colour and light sensitivity on my artwork...


STEP 16
This is the best function by Corel Painter. u can rotate your work anyway u like for the best way to draw! (shortcut key: E)


STEP 17
I started to paint the background. after that i opened a new layer for the lighting from lantern & provided an overlay before the bg layer... (i use a lot of layer on my work coz it made it easier to change into another effect or color. and of course, i'm not PUPPETEER! he only needed to juz use one layer for all his work! awesome!)


STEP 18
Then I drew some grass behind the ladder(forgot to capture screen for the roof process...)


STEP 19
This step was to draw the moon & cloud(i opened a new layer for cloud)


STEP 20
I finished with the cloud's layer and then continued with some bamboo.


STEP 21
The bg almost done dy, but the cloud...


STEP 22
Then i put multiply on the cloud layer, it looked better.


STEP 23
Then I drew her partner- Mei-Ling behind her, throwing 'fu'(符).


STEP 24
Realising the smoke was also the hardest part for me. i tried download some smoke pic & mask it with photoshop & draw the smoke with 20-30 opacity brush. Duplicated it and put on my work layer.


STEP 25
This step quite important for me coz i can change any tone or feel for my work. Opened a new layer and added a gradient(overlay)


STEP 26
It was time to put more detail work on bg...


STEP 27
I added some motion blur effect on the word coz I was to show that the lantern was moving! Copied the lantern to another new layer and made it bigger & put more lower opacity then moved it to the right.


FINAL STEP
I done this work at my house with LCD monitor, so the color is not entirely the same when i printed it out. So i changed the contrast on the final step and stamped my name/seal. Done!


Hope u guys enjoy it :)
Any mistake or comment, you can juz leave me a message~ thx.
