sketch for "a snowy day" with moleskine.

IF : Frozen

"Frozen" is not comfortable for us. However, "Frozen" is a comfortable space, and is indispensable for them. A one-sided idea might perplex the other side.

IF : Flying

As for Sapporo of this season, there are a lot of days of the strong wind. It seems to fly if the umbrella is opened when it rains on the day with a strong wind. However, how is it wonderful if it's possible to fly as freely as Mary Poppins over the sky?

Other Parts Drawing was done

I draw other partys of 2.5D illustratyion today.
at first, I painted fence.


and these are other parts.
I think this sheet was the most pleasure part of all parts.


these are all parts...
I did scan these parts to PC. And I did adjusted to box size each part.







oh kay I'll build these part next week.
when it done, I'll post again thanx:)

Background was done!

I painted final works of Background.
I used Brown Pencil of Derwent for main line. and I put color with water color paint of Winsor & Newton.


Derwent Drawing (Terracotta 6400) is dark anber (dark brown) soft color pencil. it is very smooth to drawing! it' my favorite!!!
When I draw usual Doodle, I used Derwent Drawing (MarsOrange 6210) for primary line. after this, I draw Black line with Faber-Castel PITT OIL BASE Extara Soft Black 112601

then, I finished background paint.
as for this time, I used Watson paper. it is nice base for water color.


I'll keep painting. I'll post next step soon.

Idea Doodling [pt.3]

I thought that I drew this work in today!!
but.....I came to want to think about the design of the building a little more.


I will take the high building to the essence.
The balance to set off the high building is difficult.
but.....I came to want to think about the design of the building a little more.


The person's arrangement is reconsidered.
I am doodling some ideas. However, it doesn't yet decide it.


I decided it today...
I will drawing this time by "Pencil with transparent watercolor".


heheeh I will draw an actual work from tomorrow.
...maybe.......

Idea Doodling [pt.2]

I still expand material and am doing doodling. hehehe
The detail is not decided easily. Then, some still are drawn.


It decided it to making the background a town. However, the match with other backgrounds decided to be tested.


As for the plant arranged in this side and the interior, the tree is good and the flower is good. ummmm I can't decided yet.....


Design of the girl who is sitting on interior.
I drew four patterns with different atmosphere.





And, it is rough craft that here made from the miniature (1/2 sizes).



I will select the design reconsideration and the material (painting materials) in the building next time.

Idea Doodling [pt.1]

Hello There, Long time!
so sorry for not update this blog...
as for me, I'm OK. but I still have little headache everyday...ummmm

I am doing some doodles for 2.5 dimensional artwork.


It deformed it for a moment too much. hehehe
Then, I sketched the cat. And, it drew comparatively by light deformation.


next, I doodled wood.
I think it is better for cartoonstyle for my artwork.


It's necessary to note it. because it becomes an image in space and the future if here is deformed too much!!


It this time thought about the town and the entire layout.
I want to draw that I felt comfortable wind in this artwork.


I decided to make 1/2 size miniature.
It's necessary to divide into some parts to make the work that feels depth.


The table, the chair, and the flower are arranged forward.
Therefore, it drew individually.


I think about some patterns as for the background.
Idea that person is walking here in front of big signboard of movie.


However, I will make "Town" that is an original idea a background.
Therefore, the idea in a few building was sketched.


I have not decided which painting materials to still adopt.
Doodle might be made a 2.5 dimensional as it's work.
It's necessary to test several times.
*The photograph of the miniature actually made will be published next time.
