Retouching Images or Photos

One of the best thing in photoshop is retouching the image that you like, making them look good or attractive. So, for me to develop such skills I give it a shot. The process is a bet long specially on the area where you need to edit the skin.


And here's the output, from the left is the retouched and the right is the untouched or the raw. Or just click the image to see the big difference.

Sexy Girl Vector

Another vector Art I made is sexy girl with only a white long sleeve. Here's the original Image of the girl and below is the final output.

Final vector:


It took me like 4 hours to finished the whole thing. Below is the image when I was halfway done.

My own version of fantasy nightsky

I can rarely see nice of view of nightsky these days so I made one for myself, my ideal nightsky. And I used photoshop CS2 on it:


Then I added rainbow making it look fantastic. And here's my final output.

Animation Project for wedding

Another cool project I'am currently making is the animated video clip for my wedding which is about our love story. And one of the best software I choose that suits for me is toon boom 4.5

Toon Boom

It's best for me because it has easy to use functions and features compared to other software animation. And also though I wasn't paid to discuss or market this software is that some of the cartoons or animations on TV where made using such software.

Familiarizing and working with toon boom may take time and would be easy if you are already using with adobe flash software. One of the best tutorial I found on the internet is here Toon Boom Tutorial . 

I just like this short animation



Just browsed in aniboom.com where there are lots of cool animated videos from 2d to 3d which are created by different independent cartoonist. And I've accidentally spotted this nice clip that gives life to art. Hope you also like it.. nice!

Great art comes from the heart

Making unique invitation card for my wedding is one of my art project this July. And I accidentally come up with the idea of making 2 simple icons which will be used to our invitation card, back-drop (background at the reception) and for the mini movie clip for our story video.

I used illustrator CS3 (old school but yet still very effective) since I'm an old school type of person and it's a good software when making vector art. 


I really find it cute using such icons to our invitation card making it more unique.
