(Fictional) Movie Posters

The drawing above is an example of times where unintentional doodles on scraps became more detailed and finally I decided to finish them off with colors.

Sketched with pen, scanned and colored on the iPad.

5-Point Perspective : Office View

Glass Ball City : Office View

Decided to take my experiment on 5-point perspective TWO steps further.
1) I've added the background that was projected into the glass ball. Not very accurate but the effect is somewhat there. To compensate for lack of color, I blurred the background using photoshop to create a depth of field effect.
2) I drew it in 3D Perspective 'Isometric'. I know something is not right in my drawing. Haven't figured out what's not right... maybe someone can tell me.

5-Point Perspective - An imaginary city front

I used to look at fish-eye sketches and wonder how can those ever be drawn. I always thought they were very difficult drawings to do. But when I first came across a tutorial about 5-Point Perspective Drawing from the deviantART website, I realized it isn't difficult at all! In fact once you understand the principle behind the lines, creating one is just limited by one's ability to imagine.

First 5-Point Perspective attempt. Drew an imaginary city front.

Decided to color it eventually. Completed on my iPad with Sketchbook Pro.

Duck Quack Pose

This morning a few students walked up to me requesting for donation for a nursing home. One students was holding a plastic bag that has an image of Daffy Duck. Inspired by a 'Duck' I followed up with a quick sketch of 'Quack Duck' to end my break time.

Unintended Movie Poster - Titled ''Study Hard: Play Later : Play Hard'

It started off with a little note at the header that says 'E-Learning'. Then moved on to add a figure working on a computer (rather he is playing on the computer). Supposedly to mean students doing their holiday Electronic-Learning at home.

Then the rest is history when you give me long enough time equipped with a pencil.

The little started grew to become a mock-up MOVIE poster! How cool is that. Haha... I tried to make the whole thing meaningful, so I linked everything into
