omg my last entry was june 2005! that was when i was still in NUS second year pharmacy. this showed how busy i was.

too shagged to do any artwork in this while. in fact, i had just completed my pre-registration training to become a pharmacist! so now i have became a full-fledged pharmacist. so many things happening these days i hardly had time to sit down and slowly enjoy the process of designing and making artwork. hopefully as i settle into my new role, i would be able to find time for more beautiful things.

so stay tuned!

Thank u!

how ironic... i am the 1000th viewer haha... aniwae it was kinda consoling and satisfying to see that the pageview has finally gained a 4th digit.
i will do a gift art for the 1111 pageviewer. hope it's not myself again. just send me a screenshot.
hmm... it's been quite some time since i do art - anime, fractals and stuff. lazy mah... plus i was quite caught up with pre-uni activities and work. will try to get some art done i promise.

O.o amazing form of nature.<br /> i have been doing little drawing lately, not realli in the mood to do some nice drawing. someday i should attempt painting. i am still in love with fractals. so simple yet so complex. or some of you might put it the other way round.<br /> i need to try more different fractal styles. it's easy to get stuck to one style.<br /> ---------------------------------------- -------------------<br /> Frenz and devwatched (not in order):<br /> <a href=$

News!

~cutegem — Fri, 05 Mar 2004 21:16:31 PST

Woohoo!
Rock-breaking news: i passed my A level with 3 As and a B for GP. yay... it is the best result that i have ever gotten in my 14 yrs of formal education. and for the first time, never before in my 2 yrs in VJ, have i seen As for my A-level subjects.

Good news: After much crawling, my deviantart pageview has FINALLY broken the minute 500 mark. I know as compared to others this is merely an insignificant value, but to me this is a small breakthrough to what my art may become in the future. i feel appreciated.

lazy day

~cutegem — Fri, 09 Jan 2004 23:24:52 PST

i have found an ad hoc admin job. pretty boring.
i realise that i am am more than a notch too late in promoting my art work in my previous journal. sigh... nvm.
everything's quite dead for the time being. i am getting tired of colouring. i think i will try out some Flash stuff.
so long!

~cutegem — Sun, 28 Dec 2003 23:47:45 PST

KNOW WHAT?! I haven't got a single vote for the first contest that i ever participated in on devart. it's the ff7 character drawing and mine is Tifa ( [link]). sigh~ maybe i should start pulling some vote for myself. the link is here: [link]
pls vote for me!!!
i think i really am the only one without a single vote. man, am my pic so bad? i admit there are better pieces than mine, i personally like #1. but not a single vote is REALLY BAD. i think maybe my colouring is not outstanding enough and the bg is too plain.
nothing's going well for me these days. i still haven't found a job ugh...

boredom in progress

~cutegem — Tue, 09 Dec 2003 06:00:12 PST

i just came back from my class chalet. had a really wonderful time there. woohoo! :woot:
i am now working on cging the background for my upcoming mystical series character. sigh~ i really can't do background.
i can't wait to get private tuition jobs so that i can ease my boredom and prevent myself from getting nagged at by my parents.
now there's really not much meaningful things to do, if i consider mugging meaningful to some extent.

hey i was thinking maybe i should try a collab. anyone interested? send me a note. Actually i was also thinking how pple go about doing commission art. well... i think my standard is not there yet.
ok nitez!

Yippee!!!! lol

~cutegem — Fri, 21 Nov 2003 01:16:54 PST

woohooo... !!!! a levels finally over!!!! yay yay yay! and the good news is i have finally got my psc (printer, scanner, copier) set!
but i have been too busy fixing it today i din manage to scan much art except the one for aiwei. kinda disappointed also becos i tot i wouold spent the whole day scanning. aiya cannot lah, later i develope worse short-sightedness.
aniwae it really take a great deal and a long time to finish one piece of work, one that i put in my best effort in. the important thing in submitting art is not just about submitting something, i think more importantly is whether you have submitted an art piece that you can be proud of. submitting for the sake of submitting is pure spamming.
well well... enough rambling here. check out some links below.

yadda yadda...

~cutegem — Wed, 19 Nov 2003 19:30:06 PST

hehehe... i am back again... just in case u have forgotten who i am due to the lack of submission recently. aniwae i haven got any substantial artwork on my comp at the moment that i would deem fit to submit, so pls hang on. i must save all the best til after my exams and that is.... tomorrow. yesh!
then i can draw like nobody's business! that is until i get occupied again if i can get a job after college.
i tot i will be cranky and put up these tmnt icons. hehe... my pet terrapin's idols. aniwae, i like the new tmnt series, real cool!
ok i am running out of cranky things to write. tmr i will be in a crankier mood. so watch out! now click on those links below.

u see i haven been submitting art and won't be till my exams are over becos my mom only allow me to get the printer scanner thing after A'level. oh well... maybe that's for the better.
i have many, in fact tons of sketches that i would like to put up here. those u see around here are some of my really old ones that i have repeatedly colour. thanx for all ya comments.
In the process i will learn to improve. study hard pple, my frens. study hard myself. cya again!

i guess i won't be doing much art recently. first i haven't got my scanner so i cannot put up any better art pieces other than my usual comp-drawn designs wif my outdated photoshop 5. ugh...
the happy news is... i intend to get one copier/scanner/printer soon, now got a lot of good offers.
but then... i've got to STUDY and i really got no inspirations now. i do art on an impulse, i hate planning. art can't be planned.

i just realised i have been making too many drawings on female. seemed like i am some sort of feminist, haha!
i shall try to put up some pic wif male characters after all my exams. maybe then i can spend more time socialising as well and discover more art pieces and good artists here. seems like my little deviant corner isn't very ri nao (er... how to translate tt... lively? crowded?). ya, very few conversations and stuff.
btw, i still prefer drawing females. i find them more interesting to draw leh. hehe.

prelim in process

~cutegem — Wed, 17 Sep 2003 03:25:03 PDT

half a load off. feel quite relieved now, cos tmr no physics, yeah! hehe can upload more arts... now all my arts are done from scratch using adobe becos i still haven't got my scanner. so anime will have to wait lah.

does anyone know where is the button that shows the list of emo-icons that you can add in the journal entry?
and anyone can tell me how to delete unwanted comments? not that i want to delete any, but it would be a good function anyhow.

so dumb... i din't realise that featured deviation is added by ownself... ok so now i have added my featured deviation haha! now where's the funny icons??

a little ranting

~cutegem — Mon, 01 Sep 2003 23:04:44 PDT

i haven't been able to make nice backgrounds using adobe. i find drawing details on background a very challeging task, so basically must try to experiment with effects. wait till i get my scanner i wouldn't be recolouring my old work, it's getting boring yeah. i also would like to experiment with different cg-ing style. those in my fav are those style that i really admire, they are toatlly awesome. so for the moment is just nothing much going on for my submission. hmm... i'll be waiting for the day to get my first featured submission. notice that a lot of pple have that.

~cutegem — Fri, 18 Jul 2003 08:25:06 PDT
