Poster Designs Are Tiring

This has been a hell of a week for me. 

Honestly had so much work that I was going to sleep late and doing nothing but work this past week. 
Ridiculous!

So yeah, what took me so long was this promotional poster that I made to showcase all the new stuff in a really anticipated game, 
Little Big Planet 2!
Follow the Sackboy!

So yeah, that's why there wasn't a comic, damn classes are really starting to take their toll but for now, it looks like the work-load has gone back down to normal (which still sucks, mind you). But thankfully, I get to unwind this weekend. Why you may ask?

This is what I'm doing the WHOLE weekend. 

And this year, its grouped up with this!


Its my first time attending this type of convention and today was the first day. Gotta say, my feet are killing me and I should really go to sleep, long day ahead of me tomorrow.
Pictures to come, expect those!

Let me know what you think about the poster!

Post a comment!

Twitter's Dark Secret

(Click to Enlarge)
I Eff'ing Knew It!


(Skip this paragraph if you know what anime this is.)
So in case you don't know, this is a drawing of Edward Elric from the anime FullMetal Alchemist. It's pretty mainstream now, especially since they re-released a much better adaption of the anime recently. Its about 2 brothers on a journey to get their bodies and limbs back (it isn't as creepy as it sounds) and mastering alchemy, a power that lets the user bend materials to their will. It's bad-ass, enough said.

(Now back to our usual blogging...)
So that was pretty awesome. Welcome new followers and stalkers, I hope to be able to entertain you all as much as I can. Guess this means I gotta start updating alot more, which I'm cool with, as long as it doesn't count into my living time, trust me that's important, or else we wouldn't have an entire room* named after it. 
*The Living Room


Current Obsession

Bet you didn't see that one coming. 
I've been reading the crap out of the original manga and its awesome, unlike the horrible anime adaption. If you ever saw this anime then definitely forget what you saw, wash your brain if need to and watch the new one that was recently released.


But how do you get there you ask? Click the image above!
Just that easy and its free. How cool is that?
Rhetorical Question, really cool.

College is starting up again. My last year, its gonna be interesting.
You better believe I'm excited!
Not this excited though, this kid needs to calm down.

Let me know what you think.
Don't be shy, I'm a nice guy.
At least that what my parole officer says.
Joking.

Savepoints: What a bitch!

Savepoints: Intro
Click for bigger & better view!
Finally I finished this. I've been meaning to post this up for weeks now. You can guess school is keeping me plenty busy. I want to start a story with this idea so...I will. Let me know what you think, I appreciate and like reading comments, they're delicious. Nom nom nom.

I want to start doing some art requests so I'm allowing the first 2 people who post a comment to get an art request. I'm also doing a third for a friend who's been wanting it for a while so hers will be first.

Why Are We Scared of Heights?

Because the high-ate-us.
Now that's a horrible way of saying sorry for being on hiatus.
(in case you didn't get it.)

I've been dealing with school, life and some martial arts training
(yeah, I do it)
and have
been low on downtime between watching stuff to keep my sanity.

But yeah, I haven't gotten my hands on a scanner but I'm definitely going to this weekend and will post up some stuff next week of my drawings. But of course I wont leave without actually posting some stuff up. I know as soon as you look at this, you'll know I'm obsessed.

I've been working with 3D Studio Max, a 3D animating and creating software. It's pretty cool, though took some getting used to. I mean, fucking Infinity Ward (designers of Call Of Duty games) make their games using this, so it ain't your mom and dad's email accounts, you get me? So here's the first thing I made seriously...
This is the first draft I did of the Ninguin. Honestly, its a hard program to do from a 2d drawing so cut me some slack. Lol, I know it very little resembles the original version (link here) but I tried. I refined it a lil, worked on the flippers especially. Oh, I also added makeshift sais.
Yeah, Im fucking obsessed and you're prob tired of seeing this guy by now but I couldn't help but try. And then came my favorite...

Yeah, it was basically it at this point, feathers are hard to animate, even worse to try and make move. I like this stuff so I'm trying to get better at it.
Wings are fucking hard to do, especially ones supposed to be holding a sword. And eyes are hard too but I like the sinister-osity (I create words out of nothing, I'm word God) of his eyes.
What I most like is his feathers on his head or "hair" that I tried to make look as best I could as Cloud's hair from Final Fantasy VII.

I'm working on the buster sword now, since I love that sword. I'll keep you guys posted. This was just something to wet your appetite while I get a nice two part blog going. I swear it'll be interesting. Oh! You wont be seeing these guys on the blog again, im tired of showing them and you must hate seeing them by now. IF I do an animation with them, then maybe...

Anyways, all my info's on the side, follow me,add me, comment if you'd like. I always appreciate some constructive criticism.
Time to get serious about al the projects I have in store for this and for life...which will prob make their appearance here anyway. Til next,
P3@C3

Floridian Update Explosion! Part II

"Hey...wait, don't go. I know I've been unfaithful to you, not paying you enough attention. Blog, Im sorry. I'll try to be there for you as much as I can."
-Mike Suazo
Ok, now that we got that out of the way, we can continue on with our lives. Just please remind me of that quote. I've been drawing alot lately but its safe to say I've been slacking on my art commissions. I have my latest one to finish but c'mon, it was a six part-er so its going to take me a while. Two to go and they will be in next week's update, I fucking promise.

Lets jump right into it, I'm staying at my cousin's house and she has two cats, animals I've never liked to play with. Something about their asshole-ish nature is really unsettling. But only one out of her two cats is a huge asshole, worse than Garfield, I have the scar to prove it. But, this is the cute one thats nice, like a lil whore cat.

Just her lying on a sofa cushion.

Continuing from last month's post, I have two more character commissions I did for, yet again, Peter Sciacca, for his novel Psychopomp! (more info here)

Izzy, a fun loving character who's into manga so I thought this look would fit her.


Luca, a hipster who's way into video games. I really like how this came out.

Watch them in their full view by clicking them. Maybe save them for a background idea? Eh? EHH?! Jk. I had alot of fun doing these two, especially Izzy since I had never done a pose like that before. Plus her expression was real fun to do.
Well thats all the cool stuff for this week. I'm going to update in a week or less and I WILL update in a week. I'm going to add some stuff to my DeviantArt account so go check it out there and let me know what you think. That's where I'll have most of my stuff that I would want other people to see or comment or curse me out about so if you're curious, check it out. Leave a comment, c'mon, its been a while, I'd love to see what you think.
Peace

GunDAMN Its Been a While...:D

Took me all of 2 minutes to come up with that title. Little foreshadowing and a little sexual tension...you like? I like.

Anyways, very sorry for that brief intermission. Shit, you'd think with breaks like that I'd be a big celebrity who could afford to take them. Nope, just a college student and right now, things are hectic. Finals are here, did one today and I was pretty content with it but what do you care, you're here for the drawing of the stuff that my blog dictates me to do (he's holding me hostage!...call someone...)

Back on track with the art commissions. This week, or better yet, for the past few weeks, I've been steadily working on my best friend's request. Now, if it wasn't for that title he has(OMG! BFF), I would've shut his request down without a second thought. Well, there would've been a second thought but it would've been more about violence against the requester. He asked for (like you couldn't guess) a Gundam...a fucking Gundam.(I might have to start watching my language, my grandmother hates seeing me write curses on this thing...she has to stop reding them then :D)

Those things are annoyingly tedious and I have always hated the idea of drawing something too complicated but I gave it a shot and honestly, I don't ever see myself doing one again unless they make Gundams cyborgs and that just sounds dumb so yeah, never again...unless for money. I even decided on doing Gundam Wing only because I remember picking only that character in the SNES (Super Nintendo) Gundam games and yeah, he's even harder.
I started out with a simple (yeah right) out line. Not bad took me all of 5 hours to finish it but yeah, simple...


Then I worked on school, tried not to fail anything, videos here and there and then finally did the outline in Photoshop and that took annoyingly long as well. So many lines I swear I was happy when I finished half, just so I could sleep. See?


Then after that gruesome part wa done, I felt ALOT better. Coloring was a process but it was easy enough to do. There's alot of parts to making the colors seem right and I wanted it to look a little better and to further my understanding of Photoshop so I started using the gradient tool. Nifty little thing and helped out.


I know, I know, the sword looks weird but I wanted it a little tipped and uh, yeah. I might re-touch it a little but I seriously don't want to look at this file for a while. Since it had been a while, I did a quick background that I think seems appropriate so stop teasing me... :(


There you have it. Wow, it feels great to have something new up. I had been coming back to the blog every now and then and expected to see an update from myself. A crazy idea but if it happened, then who was crazy to begin with? NOT ME!...he he.

BIG UPDATE: I started, get this: A PODCAST with my good friend Peter Sciacca called Tangent Combo. We did it a couple weeks back and only have one so far but I want to hear your thoughts. You can subscribe to it using a small button in the page so you can listen to it on "the go"(I just think its cliche to say that and wouldn't be surprised it was copyrighted byt Go-Gurt or something)
Here's the link: Tangent Combo

If you want to talk to me or e-mail me about something, I posted my e-mail on my profile and all my social networking stuff is on the sidebar...(this is a sidebar mom)--->
Follow me on Twitter if you'd like too. I may not update every hour but when I do, you best believe its going to be...kinda ok, good at best. Jk. I try to be funny, you decide if I am.
Peace
:D

Backstory Time Folks (Cuz I'm Lazy)

Hey! Welcome, wipe your feet on the rug and relax, its story time. Its been a few weeks now and I'm dying under the weight of all this school work, its getting in the middle of my fun time (not a masturbation joke...unless you think its funny then by all means, enjoy) I know it's probably a lame reason but there won't be a fresh new drawing up this week. Sorry, school in the end comes first, if I had a job, then I would say fuck it but school is more like a dominatrix, need I say anything more? I do? Nipple clamps. There you go.

So yeah, why not post up some of my old stuff? Because I don't want to!...Okay, you talked me into it.(No one really spells out okay anymore) When I was young, I used to...trace (I feel a lil dirty thinking back on it, not because of the tracing, just...memories) Anyways, yeah, it took me a while to actually draw stuff and you can say I'm still not caught up. I grew up in the Dominican Republic (said backwards for all my spanish brethren...or just hicks). My cartoons were not limited by my country's third worldlyness though, I used to watch Dragon Ball (Z too), He-Man, Looney Tunes but I think my first anime that I watched alot was Sailor Moon...I know, I know.
Moving on, that got me into that whole genre, it expanded much more when I picked up my first manga book, I'll never forget the name, it was Ejaculation Rangers, weird since I found it in Borders...
Ok, seriously, it was Love Hina Vol.2. I just really liked the style and Ken Akamatsu (the manga artist) is still one of my fave artists today and here are some other stuff that inspires me.


This is probably getting too long so I'll just show some of my work that I've done over the last few years. Check it out, nothing too original, not until just recently have I been getting really creative so there you go. Tell me what you think.




Now stop asking me for more! I'm joking, please ask for more. Oh yeah, and post your names when you comment and you're not a blogger member. I want to know who's actually reading this crap. Follow me if you like what I do and if you don't spite me by following me, that'll teach me!

Twitter: Kigenhere
PS:I got the next three drawings planned out. The first is for my brother since I owe him since October and have been lying saying I did it (I swear Im nice) so you'll see what he asked for.the second is for some groupie I know that thinks she's my girlfriend(I tell her that to keep her from going nuts and killing herself, or worse, me!) And the third is for one of my best friends, now THAT is going to be challenging, I've never done that kind of drawing so it should be challenging to say the least. Are PS' supposed to be this long? Ah well, leave a comment, tell me your opinion.

First Post!! Woot! Wait... this is MY blog.

Hey,name's Mike and welcome to my blog I so aptly named "I Draw Stuff". I'm going to be talking about, you guessed it, nuclear physics...or drawing stuff. I'm a SUNY Purchase student, New Media major (meaning anything artistic with computers) and I like to draw things in my spare time that I can't use for my portfolio so yeah, I like to waste time.

This is something I recently drew for my door. Why draw something for the door? Because the girls in front of my dorm room drew something and started an ART WAR!...They don't know about it yet but that just means me and my roomate are winning. My roomate decided to draw two Nintendo characters, a Boo and a red mushroom. I decided to go for a Final Fantasy character: A chocobo wielding a buster sword (FFAC version) and threw in a little Naruto inspired eyes...
Here's my inked drawing.

I used a .25mm line width black Micron since its the only pen I have skinnier than a sharpie.
Here's a little of the colored drawing.

I used sharpies for most of it but added some coloring pencils for the borders as to not screw the inking up.

Here's the finished product.

Used color pencils for shading and light spots. Added a little scarf for, i don't know, cool scarf action? Anyways, that's it for today. Check every now and then to see what I'm drawing up here at SUNY Purchase.
