Description
Sketchdate: 20040221Freehand aqua-pencils (watercolors pencils and water) 1 hour sketch.
2nd watercolors pic drawn since elementary school, finding own technique is the most enjoyable.. I think watercolors (at least aquapencils) is fun
Anyway, it's my all-time fav Japanese rock band "Bump of Chicken". Listening to their songs while sketching, and somehow turned into a live scene because their sound's very energetic.
Please full-view, I've reduced the original size of the pic.
PS: It's an IMPRESSION, not technical drawing. Cheers!

Nice... unlike your usuals this one has a real sense of space to it. Maybe it's the layering of everything. I like the atmosphere the pencil/watercolors have given it, too. Almost kind of gentle and quiet, compared to the thicker sumi-e pictures. I like it, anyway

Thanks! I painted this (aquapencil and watercolors) back in February, during the early stage of trying to teach myself using those medium... it remains one of my personal favourites.. doubt that I could paint/draw the same thing now lol.

Who knows :3 maybe there'll be another fluke and something even nicer will come out. Guess spontaneity and flukes are what makes good art so good and rare.

Ah, some of these artwork reappeared again on your watch-list because I made them available for prints... this particular one was painted back in February lol! It still remains one of my personal favourites eheh.

Yeah i noticed that after i accidentally wrote off on one. I knew it looked familiar but couldn't place it! But it is very refreshing to look at some of your old work and see new things in them! I am grateful for such chances.

.......I can't really comment on this. The only thing I can do is wonder idly if I should put the print I'm going to order on my wall or my ceiling.

Aww thank you
(so it was you who place it on the wish-list? <- they never show who did lol)
This is actually the first group painting of BUMP OF CHICKEN that I did (back in February), can you believe it? It's like suddenly, I started to want to draw/paint them and have never stopped since then <- obsessed.
Thanks again

I really like the sketchy feel of it and how you've sort of got some atmospheric perspective going on. Actually, I only have one tiny crit, they sorta have a halo thing going on because the background isn't always painted right up them. I think in this case it works with this piece, but it's one of my pet peeves.
π: 0 β©: 1
Okay this is from a thick-er paper but apparently still not thick enough lol (I tend to go extreme and crazy while coloring.. plus finding own techniques). Oh the halo thing is on purpose (err, subconsciously on purpose) because I love sketching motion (or a sense of isolation) in a sketchy way (the only way I love lol) and I find halo somehow give such effect (i do that with my markers sketches too), just personal opinion. But I understand what you brought up there, if it's not in an appropriate mood of the pic, it's best to fill up the halo. Thanks again for the tips

I LOVE THE COLORS!!! (especially yellow& red in the background, 'cause they add " warmth" to the "cool"colors dominant pic) and it's AQUA PENCIL(again), that's really awesome
Meheheh. I love Bump of Chicken toooo!!! The very first song I listened to was "Sailing Day"....just because it was an ending song to One Piece movie. And they LOVE One Piece toooo~!! YAY. Okay, I will shut up now.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yuko-san YAY!!!
Thank you! Actually I'm VERY satisfied with this one and it's like a surprise (fluke again lol) because I had NO IDEA what I was doing while sketching/coloring.. sort of like in a trance mode (it happens ALL THE TIME, just different intensity
With the watercolor pencils, I guess I'm more in-tune with "solid" kind of medium, like pens, markers.. more than brushes. So I was a bit lost if just brushing the colors with waters.. I had to err, instinctively picking up the actually aquapencil, dip it into water (don't think it's a "proper" technique lol) and sketched straight with a mix of pencils and brushes.. mostly dominated by the pencils.. it's happenned so quick I could't even remember the sequences of events lol.
Bump of Chicken's AWESOME!! Yah! Sailing Day was great! I thought you might have heard them from One Piece movie heheheh.. I just love their sound, they sound like they're very energetic, passionate, and having lots of fun with their songs.. plus such simple but ingenius melody.. (plus I love that kind of voice

OMGSH!!! I THOUGHT I SAW SHANI @_@_@_@ and I was like "wow... but I thought the title said...?"
Just to let you know this pic made me buy Bump of Chicken CD today!!!! Can't listen to it anytime soon cuz my CD player broke after I dropped it on the floor... need to get it repaired...
Store Clerk: "How do you spell it?"
Me: "B.U.M.P.O.F....... ...... chicken..." <-- can't say "bump of chicken" without biting toung/stuttering...
π: 0 β©: 1
LOL! I don't blame you, Fujiwara-san (the singer/guitarist) DOES have overflowing Shani-vibe, I was seeing them "in action" ('cause previously only saw two photos of them, the one with them lying on the couch/sitting on the floor playing video games (on their official site), and the other one on the back cover of "sailing day" single.. and back then was already thinking he looked like Shani lol).. but yeah, when seeing their PV (Diamond) for the first time, I literally yelled out "SHANI!!!!! RL SHANI!!!" *0* The "drugged-out" look, the hair coveing (both) eyes
Heheheheh lol at your store experience.. what a lovely name: BUMP OF CHICKEN
I'm so glad the pic made you bought Bump of Chicken CD!! Wait, is that the Taiwanese version CD? Because it's kind of difficult to purchase the original Japanese release because their earlier stuff were out of stoke even in Japan O_o.. that's a lucky and powerful CD store you got there!.. oh and which album/single did you buy? Can you play the CD on your PC? Go fix the CD player
π: 0 β©: 1
Yea it's the taiwan version... <-- too poor to buy original Japanese version -_-
I just bought whichever one there is... something like "Singles Collection"? meh I have no idea
So Fujiwara-san is like a rebelliouse version of Shuni?? In my mind Shuni's like a lil angel... (imagining him in his choir clothes + wings v.s. Fujiwara's rocker outfit + tail + horn)... hehe that amuse me
Will get my CD player fixed soon... listeniing to music while using the computer crashes it @_@ I hate my compy...
π: 0 β©: 1
Aww lucky! The Taiwanese versions often have more stuff (and WAAAY cheaper), japanese version you'd have to buy EVERY SINGLE SINGLE (lol) individually to get everything, B-sides and stuff. VERY expensive -_-; but too bad when you're obsessed, you're obsessed <- can never save $ err too bad don't have chinese records stores near me. Hmm, when you start listening (or looking at the CD), may be can tell me which tracks are in, you might have songs that I haven't got.. btw do they have photos on the CD booklet?
LOL! Yeah, Shuni's such an angel! (they even named his album Anges).. but hearing him speak seeing him live..just confirm it, an angel! He even wore white colors, with the invisible wings hehe. Where as Fujiwara-san, you just gotta see Diamond PV (or Harujion PV, those are the only PVs I've got.. want to order their DVD PVs..), he's dressing very casually, just t-shirt and jeans (no chains, no make up, no fancy "j-rock" dress).. but WHOA the rocker attitude. He's a little angel too, just with tail and horn lol.
Aww,, not enough ram on your compu then -_-. solution - just listen to music on compu and don't use it <- baka.

I totally understand what you're talking about when you said "having to buy EVERY SINGLE SINGLES" ... cuz w-inds.'s new single is coming out on March 10 @w@ .... I was never one of those singles buying people... but like you said, when you're obsessed, you're obsessed...
Donno if there's pictures in the booklets... cuz I havn't opened it yet
Casual T-shirts with a WOA rocker attitude!? I'VE GOTTA SEE THAT!!!
Did I mention that I'm using a laptop thus sound system isn't good? lol CD player's gonna get fixed tomoro!! and I get to listen to it tomoro
π: 0 β©: 1
LOL gosh look like W-inds glomping all your pocket money!! But luckily you still got tv channel to watch them.. and hence keep spending $ on them
Ah... you'll have to please scan if the booklets got picture onegai onegai onegai
(*nods* understand.. we're AB-aliens)
Actually, I haven't heard Fujiwara talked yet.. just base on the impression I got from his Diamond PV that's all.. but then the way he walked he looked like he's still blur blur half asleep with the sunglasses on and walk in a "gangly" way.. so.. maybe he's just blur and half asleep (hence I said he's got SHANI-VIBE
Heh. I like your teacher already

Thank you!
Yeah, I think you're right, I'm actually feeling very satisfied with this one; although I enjoy the process of sketching all the others too. Oh well, the next one might be back to mediocre again but at least I will still enjoy the process of sketching, disregards of the outcomes
