Backgrounds Limited, TM

Creating backgrounds(BGs) is definitely different on how you create sprites or cutscenes. Furthermore, you can reuse them on your future projects or at least render them. There's a lot in the internet that you can possibly use (remember to credit the one who made it) though sometimes it just doesn't fit the style of the overall theme of your visual novel. The following are great sites to rummage through:

• deviantART
• pixiv
• zerochan

Below is an outline from a real picture and given base colors:

Free Comic Book Day 2013 - Setting the Record

Big thanks to Castle Geek, National Bookstore and Neutral Grounds for throwing it at this year's Worldwide Free Comic Book Day. There were actually three other stores that participated in the Philippines but I decided to go here since my favorite indie artists are here.


Below are the comic books I'm itching to read: 

 

(Yes, I couldn't get my hands on them in Summer Komikon but now they're mine!)

Couldn't get a signature from either Budjette Tan or KaJo Baldisimo of Trese since they were only scheduled to appear in the afternoon. Sigh, it had to be the same day as Ragnarok Online Regionals.

Sketchy Business

Just figured to post at least some of my sketches here before they were colored digitally. The whole concept of the image changes as it turns into digital media. 
(Sorry for the lame pun.)
