"Hanging Out in front of StarBucks"

"Starbucks was like the only lot that was opened at the time since it was pretty early. I didn't order anything because I don't have the confidence to buy expensive coffee, so I just sat at a table with my classmate and started drawing."


"Claw Machines in Subang Empire"

"After like 2 hours of just sitting at Starbucks, I decided to finally get off my seat and look for other things to draw. And that's when I stumbled upon a row of pink claw machines. There were different contents in each of the machines, but the machines themselves have the same design. The token machine was placed in the middle of the row, and was designed to look like a telephone booth, which I found to be very cool (because I'm a Doctor Who fan). Can you imagine how ridiculous I must've looked while standing there drawing the machines?"


"A Walk in Subang Empire"
"It was my first time in Subang Empire. I've never even heard of it before, so I decided to walk around the mall. As expected, the directory was very important for this particular walk. After a while, I stopped at TeaLive and got myself some refreshments. In front of the lot, there was a clothes store that was pretty empty considering it was a weekday."

FINAL PROJECT 11.11.2019 Week 12 - Cultural Relationship For this project, I decided to "express" Malaysia's culture through it's traditional clothing. Malaysia is mostly populated with three main races - Malay, Chinese, and Indian. All these three races have their own traditional clothes, of course. I want to try combining all three clothings - for both female and male - into one to depict that these three races is what makes Malaysia.  So I took the highlighted parts and just mash them up. So it's basically a baju kurung and baju melayu with cheongsam and changshan designs, topped with saree's drape and dhoti's scarf. These are things (stereotypically) essential in each three culture's festivals: - Ketupat (Malays) - Chinese Lantern - Rangoli decorations (Indian) (Final work) I wanted to combine the three traditional clothings of the three main races in Malaysia - Malay, Chinese, and Indian - for

Game Art: Exercise

 GAME ART 01.09.2023 (Week 1) - 08.12.2023 (Week 14) Maisarah bt Muhd Zamri Game Art Exercise  It is advised that we download "Brawl Stars" (mobile game) and play it as we are going to base our designs on the game.  Fig 1.1 (Character draft - ideation/headshots) Fig 1.2 (Character draft - action pose) Fig 1.3 (Character outfit ideation) Artstyle is inconsistent. Decide on an artstyle (whether it be chibi or not) Worry about outfits later; focus on developing the characters first. More variety in the occupation (not just pirate themed) Initial plan was to design 5 pirate themed characters with different occupations (captain, navigator, marksman, etc) but apparently "pirate" is one thing. So I gotta come up with different, separate occupation/job/profession for different characters.  Fig 2 - Character design For the Mafia character: maybe exclude the cigar. For the Artillery character: he should've been tank.  Add more variety of body types -- rn they're al
