The "No Update" Update

Ah, remember the days when every week was filled with musings from a young director, high on the excitement of producing his first film? Me neither.

Okay, so I went on vacation outside Vancouver, British Columbia which I believe is where I'd like to live out my days on this earth. Perfect weather. Nice people. Lovely landscape. Fantastic public transportation. Biker friendly. Groovy vibe. Mountains, beach, and city all within reach of each other. Yeah, I'll see you on the west coast.

Since I've been back, my writing time has been taken up by another project and I haven't really wanted to pull energy away from it. I can't talk about it quite yet, but I will say that there are some "industry eyes" waiting to look at it, which is kind of new and exciting. Hopefully, I'll be able to spill some details about it here in the next month or so, but not quite yet.

Besides, as far as Women's Studies goes, there's nothing to blog about anyway. The waiting game continues and probably will for a few more weeks. I will say that the same industry eyes looking at the script I'm working on may also get to take a look at Women's Studies which can be nothing but good. We'll see.

I know this is a horrible update. Sorry about that, but it's better than no blog at all, right?

Captain America #43 Cover


(click image to enlarge)

Marvel's October 2008 solicitations are beginning to appear, featuring Captain America #43. Here's how Marvel describes the issue:

CAPTAIN AMERICA #43
Written by ED BRUBAKER
Pencils by LUKE ROSS
Cover by STEVE EPTING
Bucky has survived his first major trial as the new Captain America, but now a villain from his past - both as Bucky in WW2 and as the Winter Soldier during the Cold War - has come to the U.S. and he'll have to face his history just as he's finding his feet in the present. The beginning of a gripping war and espionage tale, with some familiar faces for long-term Cap readers, as the New Captain America moves further into the Marvel U. And for this action-packed three-part story, award-winning Cap writer Ed Brubaker is joined by acclaimed artist Luke Ross (Jonah Hex, Samurai).
32 PGS./Rated T+ ...$2.99

This issue marks my 20th painted cover, and it's an ongoing experiment. Next month, I'll try to post a step by step of the cover process, much like the page process in the previous post.

Page Process


Captain America #40 went on sale this week, and instead of my usual lame generic post announcing the fact, I've decided to show a little of the process involved in drawing the book.

After printing out the script, I'll usually go through and do thumbnails directly on the script pages as I'm reading it. These are generally quick impressions, and are subject to change (to put it mildly). Here's the thumbnail for page 11-

(click images to enlarge)



The next step is the actual pencilling. I really prefer drawing with pens and markers instead of pencil, so "pencilling" may not be the right term. I only use pencils to roughly block in the figures and then draw everything with whatever pen I have laying around, using a Sharpie for the big solid blacks. Usually on this step, I'll lay out everything a little more carefully than you see here, but since this page required no establishing shots or busy environments, I could just concentrate on getting the figures on the page-



This then gets scanned into Photoshop to tweak the placement and composition, completing the "pencils" part of the process-



This rough is then printed out on 11x17 paper and then taped to the back of an art board supplied by Marvel. My drawing table has a lightbox and I go straight to inks from this stage. There may be some incidental pencilling as I go, particularly if I'm working on something very specific, like a certain building or type of car. Faces and hands also are subject to being refined before the inks go down . Here's the final inked page-



Finally, it's uploaded to the folks at Marvel, who then pass it on to the one and only Frank D'Armata for coloring-


- and that's that.

I don't follow these steps exactly for every page, but for the most part this is how it's done. I'm constantly trying to tweak this process and eliminate steps in an attempt to increase speed and production, so this is all subject to change.

Two weeks compressed into one

Yo people! been slacking recently with everything. even the cls blog! hee sorry =x
ok here goes 2 compressed weeks

After much crap and the sian stuff
it is always hardwarming to go for a nolstagic trip to high school

So we went. of course w/o dom's best friend.. whatever la i wonder why u all say that haha

Photobucket

Haojiemei goes to the high school. for some hao food

Photobucket

Yeah Yeah~ Even the express-lane-phobic came.

Photobucket

Tantalisyn could finish all her food?!


And as usual. we had loads of sleeping

Photobucket

Timtay asleep. even in sleep he shows his strength. flexflex woah

Photobucket

the ultimate. mcwc mugging technique. use it and u are way beyond the event horizon. by sleeping, rate of increase of absorbtion is more than proportional to the amount of work done put in by your brain, W=Fs

Photobucket

We have Jeenloong sleeping. My fav shot ^^ taken with one hand and the other to pose for him XD

Speaking of which. Jeenlong's been slightly lucky as of late.

From source B written by prof mok, we know that JeenLoong, from xiang nian his princess, to securing his dreams of his life by engaging in their dreams once again by having a chacha date with Lizzin.

Photobucket

"Save that dance for me again" Lizzin

So they sent a volley of passion hot steamy smses. You MAY want to refer to Source B to figure out the contents.


Haii. Then now. Shortly a week later. this had to be observed

Photobucket

First you dance with lizzin. then u dance with Aresgirl. then u sms. then you have this. hmm. really wonder what goes on.

Photobucket

At the 6v outing at orchard,

Photobucket

We can observe from the above picture that Jeenloong, just like Koreanna and her good friend, are having a peach-flower-luck streak.

Photobucket

We invited Owj to outing before he left. Sorta like a farewell.

And guess what. At the final moments of parting. The pioneer and grand master of the AOSA left us the ultimate move.


WARNING. DO NOT PRACTICE W/O GAINING THE BASICS LIKE THE CROSS LEG VARIANT AND WALL LEVI.



AOSA MASTER MOVE 051. 两袖清风
Two sleeves in clear winds.



1MBA! To make things harder the manual was recorded SIDEWAYS to facilitate the difficult learning curve of this advanced move. THUMBS UP!

But then, just like markcheng's waterbottle.



Life goes on. So the new chem tcher arrived

Photobucket

Picture of convenience! Ms chen's no and email and stuff are shown!

Even though she wont go with us to highschool when sian to eat. wont invite us to wii. wont be letting us eat some 66% dark chocolate. wont be continuing the AOSA tradition..

Well. Life goes on. Welcome to HC! hope we will have a gd time

Photobucket

Life goes on with Edwin and Feli (:

Photobucket

And one of the members of the 东方神起 Tongzi got the Hokkien proficiency award! MOMG we can now spread our influence beyond japan and korean into the Hokkien market woah XD

Photobucket

Dong ge clips his hair. Doesnt seem very long to me tho. hmm

Photobucket

Meng ge does some heavy mathematical tanking.

Photobucket

There was zhen who was obviously up to some hankypanky with his yufei

Photobucket
Photobucket

But surprisingly can still slp while patuo-ing! Wake up! Anger in the air!

Photobucket

6v had GEMS in collaboration with the upcoming Racial Harmonic Day, where we constantly experience a net restoring force acting towards the equilibrium position so that we do not cause anymore racial riots and/or discrimination against some tintay.

Photobucket

Wash hand first before. So we wont have to whole class take mc tmr.

Photobucket

Gong3 Qing4 stunned by sifu's prowess tossing ability

Photobucket
Photobucket
Photobucket

Had much fun tossing and twirling them. And creating huge holes. And wasting ard10 pratas.

Photobucket

Of course we ate them. We even dabaoed XD

Photobucket

In a quiet corner of the canteen though. Lizzin hugged jiamin, seeking for the comfort and care she needed. where was he to be?

Photobucket

Yet unknown to her. jeeloong was hidden away and forced to swallow and tahan this venomous, no doubt soft, squiggly worm for his atrocious deeds toward the many women of his life.

No one can save him.

Photobucket

To be trapped inside a neutral room. A room where zero gravtitational force is experienced. The force exerted by Leon F=GMm/R^2 is neutralised since its energy used as calculated by Leon's power*time ratio is not enough to overcome the energy req for the enthalpy change of neutralisation of the Gfield-less room.

Photobucket

Daniao. meep. i got alot of bird food to feast on. *Happy*

The legendary saga of jeenlong and his harem had just began to unfold.
Perhaps. We are merely on the tip of the iceberg.

What will happen to the fate of our young scrawny Malaysian lad?
WIll he suffer and finally die in the hands of the evil?
Will good triumph over evil?

will he be able to swoon all the girls?
Or awaken to his final destiny, and go for loyal MONOgamy.
By setting up huge barriers to entry for other girls from entering his industry. And being a unique product by proving how tahanable he is.

Time will tell. Go buy a clock if u havent =.=
