My First Garage Sale

We are having our first garage sale today. Arranging stuff and posting
ads is a pain. It is quite interesting seeing other people shopping
for my own stuff. Today is just the first day, and I wonder what the
revenue will be in the end of tomorrow.

Please enjoy this beautiful digital art piece by Esteban Diácono. I have been working in visual effects for years. For me, a dynamics simulator always means smoke, fire, dust... I've never expected that we can create this kind of beautiful pictures. Very inspiring!

Fly Patterns

flight patterns from Charlie McCarthy on Vimeo.


I would never expect flies draw such beautiful patterns. Surprisingly sometimes they draw perfect spiral trails. Is that some kind of fly dance?

Create Particle Stickiness

This is quite simple, in runtime expression:
if (waterShape1.collisionGeometryIndex != -1)
waterShape1.velocity -= waterShape1.collisionNormal * $sticky;

Another photoshop practice. Just trying to get myself use to my tablet. It is still rough in many areas, but I am just trying to get a basic lighting impression here.

Damaged buildings are seen after Typhoon Morakot swept Kaohsiung county, southern Taiwan August 11, 2009. Helicopters dropped rescuers into a village in southern Taiwan on Tuesday to search for victims of a mudslide that may have buried up to 600 people after the typhoon hit the island, officials said.

Graffiti from Margot Henderson

I found this Graffiti on Facebook by Margot Henderson. I like the way she handles the furs and water reflections. Graffiti has a neat feature that you can re-play the drawing process. This is very good feature for people like me who want to learn more about illustration drawing.

This is my bed and the little red man. I might not be a king and I guess I do not want to be king either, but at least I can sleep like a king ^^

Girl on a chair

I hasn't have time to draw for a very long time. Just recently I finally re-open my sketch book and went to the figure drawing class in the company. Although my fingers are a little rusty, but I still enjoy drawing. Here is a evening project with PS + tablet for experiment.

Old Sketch - Alice



I found these old sketches in my harddrive. Very interesting idea. I don't know what I am thinking when I drew this...
