Simple magical 3D blue bottle, with moon motifs and gold embellishments. I was scrolling on Pinterest and saw these pretty blue glass bottles, and it inspired me with the idea to embellish it with golden decorations.
The picture on the right is where I sketched the golden embellishments with the intention of modeling it in Blender. I didn't model out everything in the end, since I wanted to complete something small.

More practice drawing/sketching using Peter Han Dynamic Bible book. It has been really fun to use and learn from. This time I tried using a light wash of gouache paint for some of the shadows. Like how Peter Han used watercolors to paint in the sketches. The thing is that I like using paint... it's just that I can't be paitent enough to let the paint dry in the sketchbook. I just want to move along to the next page and start sketching. I guess I should leave the painting part for the very last thing, but it will only be for a page. Lowkey... I want some brush alcohol markers. Aside from that, in the image there is some zentangle art too. I find it extremely calming and very rewarding too when I'm done. The Zentangle pages are taking up my sketch pages pretty quickly.

Some more drawings and studies I've been doing.
I've been using mainly 2 books atm to learn. They are,
Figure drawing design and invention by Michael Hampton and Dynamic bible by Peter Han.
Lately, I've been watching alot of scrapbooking/journaling videos, which is why I wanted to decorate
the collage of sketch pages similar to that.

I've been taking my time learning about shaders nodes and hopefully composition nodes deeply atm. I'm using Udemy courses to learn this, which is really good.
The blue house scene Blender project is on its slower progression atm, but that's fine. From the Udemy course I've been using, I learnt about light probes for EEVEE rendering engine. I think this will help more with the lighting I’m trying to get later on for the project.
Also, I've been sketching and drawing regularly. I don't really feel like showing them all here. But the one I don’t mind sharing is this abstract art. I'm unsure on what exactly this type of art is called, whether is Zen art, Zentangle, or a form of doodling. I saw a video of it on Pinterest and decided to make my own.
I think its Zentangle though. It was really calming to make it while listening of podcast/videos/audiobooks. And when I was done, I got that art dopamine hit which I like. Anyone can do this type of art. You just need simple lines and repetition. Over time you'll get a cool picture!
Like every line will eventually get you to a finish picture. Every step you take to the goal you want to reach all matters.
Keep going, step by step, bit by bit. You will eventually get there. This art piece was a lovely reminder to that.

I'm getting into the flow of Blender again. I was on Pinterest and was redrawing pictures in colouring pencil at first. Then I got the idea to try to recreate the piece in Blender. Since the artwork itself is straightforward enough to me, I thought it would help me to start a simple 3d project that I can hopefully complete. One thing about this project is that I am starting to learn a bit more about Blender compositing. I'm really glad the compositing workspace uses nodes, but it feels like another set of nodes I gotta learn, which I don't mind. I just need to watch more tutorials about the compositing workspace so I can recreate the effects that are present in the picture.

I really liking these colouring pencils. I drew a cute otter and ladybug. I really like the intensity of the ladybug. I think if I had a bit more colors or practice more with the colouring pencils I might be able to bring up the vibrancy and intensity more. Because I love the opaqueness and vibrancy. Though I'm surprised at how much art I'm doing now, especially going into drawing some insects and animals now. Usually I tend to do abstract or humans.

I've been using the Faber-Castell pencils alot in these last few days!
I really like it! it has been fun to draw with them.
I really like how my sketches are in color now and they are so vibrant in my eyes!
Playing around with the limited colors also gets my brain working on what other colors
I could use to make look similar to the reference I am using. But when I can't mimic the colours,
the creative decision I had to make surprised me in a good way. It makes it really interesting.
Atm, I'm just browsing through Pinterest and finding pictures I want to redraw in my sketchbook.
I dont want to overthink on what I want to draw/make, just to be in the flow of
making art and using the colouring pencils.
I feel doing it this way helps me a lot in creating the new habits I want quickly.
Life tend to be sporadic at times, and sometimes you end up putting things on the back burner to
focus on the important things.
Easy entry to things helps me to build up the habits I want to cultivate in a short time.
Also if you ever heard of the "2 min rule" for habits, that's great too. I lower it to the point, for
example: Making a conscious decision to open up blender. Then I will go ahead and close it. Sometimes
I end up poking and prodding cube and I'm in there for 10 mins, it goes up from there.
Then life comes back again 😅. But all I hope for is steadiness from then on out
If you're are in a similar situation, I hope things steady out for you too.
One last thing is that these colouring pencils barely break on me. It only broke on me once atm,
and I think it was caused by the pencil sharpener I'm using. It also doesn't matter
how much pressure I put on a sharp point pencil, it doesn't break on my end.
It's really nice!

I got the Faber-Castell 12-set Polychromos! I've been using it and I really like these colouring pencils. They are really nice and I find and the intensity of the colours are great. It makes me wanna use my sketch book more. I want to sketch in full colour more often!
Since I only got 12 colors of the Polychromos, I played with how I could mix the Primary colors: red, blue and yellow. The upper top left photo is where I was testing on what I could get by layering the burnishing the colors together. I am quite happy with the range I could get with 3 colours. I cant wait to get more colors of the polychromos in the future! The other pictures are doodles and drawings with the Polychromos pencils.

Trying to get back into blender again along with messing around with building up this website.
Below is just a quick picture of what I'm working on atm. Not sure what it will turn into
or if I will finish it. My idea for it would be to bring it into Unity and do more stuff with it.
Or create a rendered picture.
I've also been drawing/doodling lately, just fun, light-hearted abstract art. For me, it calms the mind and lightens the heart
One last thing I wanna say is to take it easy, don't
put too much strain on yourself. Sometimes we wanna be at a certain skill level
or at a certain area of life at a certain time point, which is good and well.
However, as life shows us,
things does not always play out on how we think it should be.
Being able to let go and doing the best that you can with what you have is a wonderful thing that you can do.
As the fable goes slow and steady wins the race, though at the same time life is not a race
and we're all on time.

Hello, been gone for a while due to health stuff. Now (hopefully) I’ll start to come around with fun projects again. Making a small update to stretch the HTML muscles. I feel that I’ve become quite rusty; but gotta take things bit by bit, step by step. That’s life... well, at least how I view it atm.

A while back, I wanted to learn more about material nodes in Blender.
Because, lord... hand-painting textures is a tedious 😓 especially
if you're the type of person who likes to bounce between UV mapping,
modelling, and suddenly working on bones.
Taking the time to learn non‑destructive and procedural workflows has been a godsend when
working on projects in Blender.
I'm currently working on an outfit from scratch for an avatar.
The picture below shows a close‑up view of the fabric details.
I followed some tutorials to help create the fabric details,
and I’m really pleased with how it's turning out. And since
everything is procedural, I'm able to change the texture and
colours easily and bake them for a game‑ready asset.
The pictures below shows the material nodes:
The picture on the left is the group node that controls the cloth texture that was created with the help of a tutorial.

I had this idea for my website where I would create a
a page dedicated to quick web mini-games.
Most, if not all,
of the mini-games would load into the orange box.
I think the controls or dialogue would mainly pop up in the purple box.
The idea came about because I enjoy playing Zenless Zone Zero,
and in one of their events, there was a cute charming, text-based mini-game.
It inspired me to create this concept mini-game layout concept.
I had the idea of an charater character that was
presenting the game to you for you to choose.
The character was drawn using Clip Studio, and the background and placeholder were made in Affinity Designer. Although I didnt spend too much time on this because I’m not sure when I’ll learn how to create web games, but I’m glad I took the time to make this concept. Personally, I what to spend more time on the chracte design, especially on the outfit. Though I would need to think up and stay consistent with a theme. Hopefully, I can refine and solidify this idea as time goes on.

Hello, I just want to make a quick blog update.
I haven’t been watching my sculpting lessons recently,
mainly because I got overwhelmed with life.
But I’m trying to slowly get back into the flow again.
I read *Atomic Habits* a couple of years ago, and one of the most important lessons
I’ve learnt was the 2-minute rule. I started opening Blender for 2 minutes a day to ease into
the habit.
Which is also why, for the 2-minute rule, I decided to create a blog post today.
I do not want to forget HTML and CSS.
Lately, I’ve been creating 3D mods for avatar models.
I don’t know if I will post pictures of what I’m working on at the moment,
but I just wanted to say it in this blog entry. Hopefully, I will post
something more interesting in the next one.
Until then, have a good day.

So, I finished the head over the skull sculpt. Personally,
I don't like the result—it doesn't look much like the final material from the lesson I was watching.
Most of the time, I don't mind if it doesn't look exactly the same, as long as it looks good in my opinion.
But this time, it doesn't look as good as it could be.
Though I shouldn't be a perfectionist,
especially when I'm learning and want to get good at this subject quickly.
In the past, when I experienced perfectionist tendencies,
I was very slow and gave up way too fast. Nowadays,
I focus on showing up and/or finishing things,
especially since I have shiny object syndrome.
Anyway, though I'm not too happy with my end result from this lesson,
I did learn some important concepts.
As I apply what I've learnt during sculpting,
this particular human sculpt will teach me the errors I should avoid in the future.
So, I guess it's a win-win. On to the next lesson then!

So I’ve been experimenting with using A-Frame. I still have a lot to learn, some things are still confusing. I haven’t finished reading up on CSS, and I’ve yet to touch JavaScript for website building. Though, I find it cool that I can make 3D stuff appear on a website.

I quickly made a png cursor for my website,
feel free to use it!
you can open the image in a new tab and then save it.

So I'm currently working on sculpting the human head over the skull I made last time.
1 / January / 2025
This time, while following the course,
I made a semi-realistic human skull.
I've learnt a lot about the human skull
while learning how to sculpt it.
I'm finding it a bit easier to learn
anatomy by sculpting rather than drawing.
Somehow, all of this information just clicks
faster in my brain when I sculpt the shapes.
30 / December / 2024
Some more head sculpt exercises that I am doing.
Here is a picture of the planes of the head skull.
Still a beginner at sculpting skulls but the tutorial/course
I'm using is really helpful.
I am learing a lot about head anatomy
27 / December / 2024
Here I'm practicing and learning how to sculpt a male human head
I wanna get better at making head and body sculpts.
