You're No "Match" For Me
I was browsing through the internet, trying to find some ideas of what to create next. Unfortunately, I couldn't think of anything. Suddenly, I came across a neat tutorial that could teach you how to draw a match. It looked simple enough to do, so I got to it. I just have to remember to put out the match, and save when I'm done.
Baltimore Beatdown
I designed this masterpiece as an assignment for my Graphics for Game Design class. I wanted to create a character selection screen, as in any fighting game. I thought it would be totally cool to design one, especially with my friends, since I have so many! The idea was inspired by, at the time, Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion. So, I wanted to create something alike for my inspiration. This took a lot of time and effort since I had to grab everyone's best pictures and crop them to face-size. Also, I had to think of a background design to match the feeling of the masterpiece. So, I decided to do a skyscraper with reflecting windows and searchlights, as if authorities were searching for a fugitive. This masterpiece impressed me on how well I was able to put it together in a creative fashion.
Pyrokinesis & Hydrokinesis
Pyrokinesis is the ability to manipulate the element of fire or heat. Hydrokinesis is the ability to manipulate the element of water or any type of liquid. Pyrokinesis was one of my first serious masterpieces that took a lot of time, energy and effort. I wanted to create a masterpiece where I was allowed to obtain superpowers, just like the superheroes you see on television or comic books. This project was difficult, but I knew it was possible. So, I decided to search for a tutorial that could teach me how to create flames. Suddenly, I stumbled upon the right tutorial. In the end, it became possible as I imagined.
Then, I decided to create the opposite of fire: water. I used the same techniques as I learned from tutorial of creating flames. However, I had to learn how to make water instead. So, I played around a little bit to find the right effects until I was satisfied with the results.
These two projects took a lot of effort and time, but they came out as great results. I was excited and proud that I could create such imaginations. Hopefully, I can make more superpowers.
