Kentaro Kobayashi(Ramens)

I've had a long holiday since new year and I enjoyed lots of media like movies, comics, anime and whatever I felt interesting. I got lots of inspirations so I think it's time to make some output! Basically, drawings of thing I really liked ;)

First is a famous Japanese comedian, Ramens. I always enjoyed their funny sketches from long a go, but I didn't know what they are doing now. I searched a little and I found out that one of them are still active. Kentaro Kobayashi performs as "Potsunen" at theater. I watched some of his performances and I just loved it!

You can see some on Youtube so just sharing. I found some of his stuff at Paris so even non-Japanese people can enjoy it too I hope.

Wicked

Bad witch rises!!!

I've watched the musical Wicked yesterday and I was too impressed. I don't even remember when i watched the last musical but this one was totally epic!! Great musics, dances, acting, and story. I knew this is famous since long ago, and now I know exactly why. Great stuff.

Stand By Me DORAEMON STAND BY ME ドラえもん

Here is a trailer of the movie I was recently working on! It was such an awesome experience I got during this project. I had lots of fun!!! THX to Yagi team I worked with. I'll never forget those wonderful times.

the main character Doraemon, who is freakin famous so that everybody knows him in Japan. He was really hard to animate because of his short leg...took me while to get used to it...but he is soooo charming  when he's animated right.

 I'm working on other TV anime series right now but hopefully this turns out nice too.

Happy New Year!!!

little late as the last post, but whatever! Happy New Year, guys!
Hopefully we all have great creative year this year too!!!

Merry Christmas!

Little late, but random illustration I did for Christmas. I was pretty busy for work, but hopefully everybody had a great holiday!

Marring with the Cage

other dixit illustration

If I could touch you...

It's been a month since I started working at Shirogumi. It's freakin busy, but also really fun!!!

This is an illustration for card game called Dixid. One of my senior animator is trying to make an original deck all drawn by Shirogumi artists, so I drew one for that.

Rainy Season

it's damn rainy season!!!

Angel

Random drawing I did for my brother. hopefully this worked nicely with his purpose.

Random Girl2

experimenting with Photoshop brushes...

Hitman: Absolution

some output from the game I've just played...

Monster in Paris

I finally could watch Monster in Paris! Thx to TSUTAYA for picking this awesome movie for rental!!!

I've been waiting since I watched La Seine sequence on web last year. Maybe its animation isn't great as Disney or Pixar but it definitely got nice designs, colors, and soundtracks! I just love appealing character designs and songs. Vanessa Paradis is too awesome!

Random Girl1

Just cleaned one of my doodles.

Blogger seems having a problem uploading video files....can't upload AM stuff.

Borderlands 2

Mechromancer with fav skins and equipment 

It's pretty late but happy new year guys. I've been too lazy since new year holidays but maybe I should be back to normal now...

I had tons of time around new year so I played several games I was keeping for the holiday, and Borderlands 2 was the best. I still play when I get spare time. It was too bad that I got my friends to play coop mode...darn, it's so fun!!!

Photoshop Test

I usually use SAI but I felt like I wanna try Photoshop too so I drew
random girl with it.

I've just noticed that this is the 100th post for 2012!! Yay!

Visiting Hong Kong

I'm visiting Hong Kong to see my parents now. It's time to eat and shop!

Cloth Study

It's just a cloth study I did from kids fashion magazine. I started to use this style(drawing rough with color pencil, clean line with pen, and tone with pencil) for life drawing first, but it seems nice with regular illustration too.

Happy Day

Swimming with Goldfishes

Just colored one of my doodles...

Posebook2

Random character based on posebook... I'm taking a character design course by Stephen Silver starting from next month, and I'm super excited! I gotta draw more to get ready for that.
