The past month of absence has been spent enjoying the holidays! So I sort of neglected this blog (oops) but well I'm back and I've been drawing quite a bit! 

Almost 25% done!

For the black lines I used my normal ZIG markers. But I ran out of ZIGs, so I frantically went to a shop nearby to buy more. You won't believe how many black markers I run through!

Couldn't find any so I bought a different kind! It's a Japanese brand called TOMBO, and their markers are pretty good. I have a calligraphy pen from TOMBO - it's pretty good!

My only problem with the PlayColor 2 (the TOMBO marker I got) is that the ink gets all funky and turns yellow behind the page, like so.

Yellow stuff = TOMBO. Black stuff = ZIG.

Women really do rule the world. They just haven't figured it out yet. When they do, and they will, we're all in big big trouble.

Flowar Powar!

My mum reeeally likes flowers. Our house always has flowers all over.

But I don't think that's why I like to draw flowers! Hahahaha. Maybe it's 'cos I find them fun to draw. 

Anyway, have a looksie.

The Medusa Hat

So I sat down with my sketchbook, took a pencil & started moving my hand around.

Somehow, it came to this..?

Draft - even I was surprised when I saw the Medusa crap.

Face finished, let's move on to the Medusa Hat!

Close up #1 - sorry for weird angle hahaha!

Close up #2 - yes, that is the carpet in my room.

Et voila!

Omg I see a hair on my carpet, I THINK IT'S MINE. >:(

I'm balding aaahhhhh... 

MY ARSENAL OF BLACK MARKERS!

Side note: I "support" Man Utd, but only because I have a Man Utd t-shirt.
I don't actually watch any football. :-/

From the front:

ZIG Laundry pen 

Why the heck did I even buy this thing.

Tombo Calligraphy Pen - from Kinokuniya

It's the shit, I found out about it at the Singapore Toys, Games and Comics Convention, or STGCC - used it for the Medusa Hat girl's face

ZIG Clean Colour Markers (Black) 

Don't laugh at the sticker with my name on it, it's so that I can differentiate which markers I've started using! Don't h8 on the stickers. >:K

Staedtler Fibre Marker

I bought a set of 12 for $5 at Popular - I think I've said enough hahaha. 

Breathing his last breath...

Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to mourn the passing of the ZIG Laundry Pen. 

He breathed his last breath today. 

He was a good & faithful marker pen. 

Let us have a moment of silence in remembrance of this wonderful marker. 

*cue moment of silence* 

*end moment of silence* 

May he RIP.

Hehehehe.

And there you have it! A Medusa Hat (black marker, A4).
