.. what Bzper Taka Nuvia ~ Empty soul does all day long. Answer I was bored. Really bored. EXTREMELY bored. And I had a few snapshots from one of my TheSims2 families on my compy, along with some other pics. And Photoshop. And I had loooaaaads of time on my hands. Might not be the best photoshopping, but I like it.

Oooookaaaaaayyy... maybe I should explain the title. ^^ A friend of mine bought a book about drawing in Gothic style. She showed to me. I was deeply impressed. Now, a few weeks later, I by the same book, and learn about a new technique - white pencil on black paper. so my mum has to buy a black sketchbook for me. The result? Strange pic 1 Strange pic 2 I wub white pencil+black paper! <3

Well almost. I'm drawing a portrait of my Bionicle self wielding a Gravity Gun. <3 Also, I can't get the Gerudo Desert theme from Ocarina Of time out of my head. Somehow, my mind registers it as being a song from The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly, which also comes to mind. I'm guessing that's somehow affecting my drawing's progress. Also, I can't help but imagine him being in scenes of that movie with a Mexican Standoff with some Bone Hunter and Tuma in the middle of some graveyard on Bara Magna... And then that creepy G-Man fellow randomly appearing in several places as soon as he arrived. But yeah, just figured I'd post this. -Ngakunui

Actually, an edited picture of my lame self-MoC that I'm messing with in Photoshop to make look "like a realistic Movie-Stylized character" Not quite sure if I like how I did his mask though. Still a work-in-progress, though, so it'll likely be worked on. -Ngakunui

I just got a new avatar. It's Zig. From Zero Wing. Yup. Go look. -Ngakunui

Hey, yeah, I enter the AC! As you know it's a hand-drawn entry, and if ya didn't know yet: Proof ^^ Some of you blog-readers might remember that I said something about a CGed entry - I gave up the idea because I saw what other people can do with a computer, and so... well. Here's ther first entry idea, but I didn't add text, so I'll explain - it's a machine to bring the dead back to life. ^^

Just a sketch I did last night out of boredom. I think I'm going to make it the basic armour design of the Military in this story of mine. And yes, I did get some inspiration from the Marines' armour in Metroid Prime. ... Also, I need to get back to work on my AC16 entry some time... ._. -Ngakunui

I discovered today that it's really easy to make a clean edit from the posters in the "Downloads" section on BIONICLE.com. I discovered it rather fortuitously, having copypasted some hi-res Mistika and Phantoka pics from there with the intention of making some generally simple edits. You know, a quick negative and then a complete hue reversal, which in essence kept the colors the same but swapped the light and dark areas of the original image. The point to this, of course, was to sort of get a glimpse of how the Toa Nuva might have been had they all been Mistika/Phantoka. The Mistika, after all, consistently use silver as a base and a Metru-tone primary, just as the Phantoka have vivid primary colors on a dark gray base. By reversing the light and dark areas and making a few subtle adjustments of color saturation, I would get a vague look at how such color schemes might have been arranged had they been applied to the opposite sets of Toa Nuva. Thus today, in an attempt to take a more in-depth look at that effect, I discovered how easy it was to select a piece neatly around its edges for recoloring. Naturally I took the initiative of doing this with the whole primary color, then the whole base color. And behold, the Pohatu I have long advocated as a middle ground between the classic brown and the vibrant orange. Dark orange is a hard color to replicate; I fear I have done a dismal job here. But note that I also attempted to change the bley to silver, in hopes of maintaining contrast. Contrast is a key to any viable color scheme at this simple, canister-set scale. Hence my appreciation of both the Mistika and Phantoka sets in their depiction of the Toa Nuva. It is natural that I would make some errors in formulating the color of dark orange, and I happened upon one incorrect color which I felt was worth pursuing. I imagine this is probably what you came for, so I will delay no longer in showing you this picture (again with the Mistika-style silver base color). This one certainly turned out beautiful, and as much as I prefer the vibrant orange tone in conjunction with the vibrant colors of the other five elemental tribes, I felt that this was worth sharing with the world. Who knows? An orange canister and a can or two of spray paint might be all that separate you from this alternative! Have a nice day. With all due respect, Aanchir: Rachira of Time

Alright, I actually am, but I couldn't resist doodling this down: Here's the result of 3 minutes nobody watched me.

Recently, I've been trying to nail down how to draw the Mask Of Speed from the front, and make it look half decent. I've nailed down how to draw it from the side, and make it look wonderful but... It looks absolutely horrid from the front. Really. See, I've been practicing drawing masks and characters, as I'm scheming to create sort of a graphic novel based in Bionicle. Problem is; I draw that mask rather decently from the side, but I do it terrible from the front whenever I draw all these sketches I'm doing for practice. The protruding "cheeks" on the side make it look awkward, and silly from the front, and that's it's main distinguishing feature. And honestly, I've done EVERYTHING I could think of to make it look decent from that angle and still portray the character's personality correctly. I just can't. So I figured I might as well give up on the concept on him having that mask. Unless any of you have any useful insight, it's becoming a rather necessary course of action. (And no, I can't just have EVERY frame with said character in it have his mask viewed from the side. That will become repetitive.) The masks I've considered giving him instead are the Komau, Pakari(however it's spelled), or Kaukau. Reasons being, I'm only willing to give him those, as past incarnations of him have worn them. I'm kind of leaning towards giving him the Kaukau, as I drew it rather well with that portrait of Gali I did- except, my character has no use for one at all(Do ice toa need to dive/ breathe underwater frequently?), and it would be silly to give him one. Mask of strength is more useful, as it allows for "HULK SMASH" type stuff, but it isn't suitable for his personality, as he's more of an agile/stealthy/intelligent/mysterious character. Noble Mask Of Mind Control is probably best suited for him in terms of personality and abilities- but I can't draw it well from the side at all, which certain frames would probably require. So yeah, I'm kinda stumped. I could probably draw all the concepts down on a single sheet of paper and scan it to show y'all what I've thought of, but you know; I've kinda worn myself out will all these sketches of the same mask OVER AND OVER and stuff, so it'll be a while. Any ideas? -Ngakunui

Just some silly hand-drawn comics I did a while back last year. I was going to post them here on BZPower, but it slipped my mind. That's about all there is. I'm thinking I might post them in the comics section, but I dunno. They'd certainly gain popularity due to the sheer overexpressiveness and idioticness. -Ngakunui

Recently, I've made quite a bit of progress with my HalfLife2 Modification. I've changed the story almost entirely, but it makes it much more fun this way. And oh yes, there will be cake. At the cost of you'll need Episode2 and Portal installed for it to work. It features "mostly destructible terrain", due to creative overuse of the Physbox entity. While this may not sound like much, it's really fun. This one level I made has destructible tiles and pillars, so if you throw a grenade or two near one of the main pillars, the roof around there comes crashing down, and killing nearly half the guys under it. It makes it so that you need to be far more aware of your surroundings, and makes that far more fun and interesting. Like- let's say, there are a bunch of Combine troops hiding in a barn- they have all the entrances covered, and I can't go in there without getting myself killed. So what do I do? I launch a grenade from my SMG's grenade launcher and blow a hole in the wall to create a new entry point. Or, let's say I can't get past this wall because the guys on the other side have the door locked- I can just blow it up; problem solved. There are also a few creative things this lets me do; if, say, I want to get to the roof or next floor, I could blow up a pillar to make it cave in, and get to the next floor, or create a new wall for cover through such means. It also, theoretically, would give the modification some replay value, as every time I've played the concept levels, it seems to be different and interesting every time. So for the revised story, I won't get too much into detail for it. You play as an Aperture Science scientist, and use a ripoff of the HEV suit which is planned to have far more useful features (such as an Auxiliary power to Health converter, Night Vision, etc.). Also, it takes place in what is now Atlanta Georgia, and I'm planning to feature a thing or two that was cut from HL2's Beta(such as the "Air Exchange" facility). And yes, there will be cake in it. I wouldn't get too excited, however. It'll definitely take a while. The screenshots are coming. And possibly a video showcasing the destruction and chaos. -Ngakunui

Current W.I.P. artwork type thing of mine. Trying to figure out how to actually make it hilarious. Any suggestions? -Ngakunui

I finally got some pictures of my horror-puzzle-adventure HL2 modification I'm working on uploaded. There's a train I made for it that looks like Tahu in it at the bottom. =D -Ngakunui

Recently, I've been working on a first-person puzzle-based modification for HalfLife2. It takes place outside of the Halflife "universe", inside a facility that you have no idea what's happened in, with no living people in sight, as you venture through it trying to figure out what to actually do in the first place. So far, I've only gotten the concept nailed down, and am about halfway through this one map that I plan to make the second one in the game. "pics" and videos are coming soon. It doesn't require any special textures or anything, except for the enemies which you find halfway through the game(which use a modified Medic skin, and the same models), and the gun you eventually stumble across(which uses an AR2 as the model and skin, but at a different angle, and works about the same as the Airboat Gun). Thee isn't a heads up display, except for the crosshairs and things that come up telling you the controls, and just getting shot once is about enough to kill you, so a "health" meter is unnecessary, as well as keeping up with the realistic atmosphere I'm trying to create. it DOES use HL2 textures, but the architecture and presentation of the environment is different from that found in HalfLife2. The only things I can think of that I'd need help on is how to create custom skins and such, and possibly beta testers. My biggest thing is that I need to know how to edit skins and textures, and how to script a custom weapon. I've gotten everything else figured out, except for a few other things that won't be much trouble. Oh, and I'll have that preview for it up in about a week. Won't take too long. -Ngakunui

I finally finished that portrait of Gali I was drawing. For those of you too lazy to click the link, and just want to see it... Please give constructive criticism, preferably in the topic. D: -Ngakunui

Mandalorian Just another WIP I thought I'd post and see what y'all thought so far.I think I messed up a bit on the proportions, but overall I think it's coming along nicely, eh? Anyone got any ideas for what I should draw after this? (PS:Can anyone tell Jango's my fave SW character? ) ~C~

Clicking leads to the topic, just as usual .

Thought I might post up some of my sketches, W.I.P and simple art, nothing fancy. Invader Zim Zim & GIR arrive at BZP My MS paintshop distorted the image >_> So that's why it looks funny. Ivory Jones Skull sketch Artwork for Barrahkshi:Chibi of Souls I tried to replicate her style, best I could. Anyway, watcha think?I've got more, just too lazy to scan 'em at the moment ~C~

^Click for MUCH larger and detailed full version. This is basically a drawing I did of a battle in an RPG on another fansite taking place on multiple worlds. I won't get into depth about it, but I will tell you that my character won the battle, and the war on the planet, said war being won after he crashed his 1200 KM long flagship into the world, essentially destroying it, completing his objective of stopping the enemy from garrisoning it further(and escaping it as it crashed). Basically, I'm finished, except that I'm going to Photoshop it later on to make it look like a colored drawing(not CGing it conventionally), unlike the real life, black/white version, if I can figure out how. It'll be up in the artwork subforum here by tomorrow, or the day after. Depends how quickly I finish adding color to it, and a so on. -Ngakunui

I'm real excited about the new Pixar movie WALL•E, and I'm planning on seeing it tomorrow! Below is some fan art. My first attempt at drawing EVE.

I found these video tutorials on manga techniques by Mark Crilley, the creator/illustrator of the Akiko and Miki Falls series, and I definitely learned a thing or two on drawing manga. I've been practicing on properly shading and inking my drawings. I've never realized what a drastic improvement it makes. I haven't inked for a long time, but I happened to have a nice fine-tiped pen on me. Probably not the best kind to use, but it's all I have. Anyway, here's one of my better sketches using this technique: I made it pink in Photoshop. It looks better in person. It may look better if I had used a scanner, but I don't have one anymore. (I used my camera.) Oh, and please read the entry below. I need name and font color suggestions.
