Robb Pratt

Superman Classic Bizzaro Classic I dearly love Robb Pratt's take on the Superman and Bizarro classic. Total respect and homage paid to the retro medium during the classic era couple with awesome character animation,timing,scene editing...I could go on. This has really pulled at my kiddie heart strings as to why I wanted to join in the animation band wagon in the first place. Thanks so much to my friend,Bob,another uber Superman fan,for sharing this wonderful clips with me! :D

Ready,aim...FIRE!

Cheers and hope you'll like it too!

Thumbie,Twisted & Trade

 Let's kick start todays update with a thumbie that occurred this morning while I was heading out,on my way to work...

Its no secret that I'm such a huge fan of Michel Gagne and his amazing works. And was awestruck years ago when I came across one of his pet projects with this sneak teaser trailer I stumbled upon in YouTube.

 I have to say  I was floored by it. The designs, the orchestration, everything! Totally blown away cos it had the entire package that screams Michel Gagne in it.
 And now years later,I finally get to see what the end product looks like.....
The Game Play Montage

The Official Trailer to his Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet

And Man! It really didn't fail to impress me! I need to invest in a new compy just for games!Rrrr!!!
Check out the game play explored by Power Hour.


And lookie what arrived last month to my art trade pal,Henry Jaepelt in Brazil! Yes,my long awaited trade for him along with a few other goodies in the package.

 Am so happy and relieved it had arrived to him safe and intact. And Phew! Was he ever pleased with his received trade.

 Here's a close up peek at the art gift. Some of you may remember my earlier post of his art gift to me. But I'll re-post it here for good measure.

Well that's all for now,folks! Not too wordy, but enough to sum up what's been going on in my head and life lately. Cheers!!!

Le Chalet de la Foret in Brussels

Art has never looked so appetizing and tantalizing!

I know that voice!!!

Thank you Bob for sharing this awesome link! :D Love it!

And I'm kinda hankering to go!

To keep my mind occupied, will be playing the soundtracks from Animalympics while I work. Love love love this show and grew up with it so the songs never grows old on me. Most notably Brad Bird had worked on this project previously along with many talented voice actors with the likes of Billy Crystal & Harry Shearer.

Check out some of the interesting in sight & snippets I found from Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animalympics

Coupled with the great designs and animation is of course the great soundtracks by Graham Gouldman.

Hope you'll like it too,folks!

World Wide Sketch Crawl # 35

Hi all,

I will be hosting a group to go out sketching most probably at the Lake Gardens touring the National Monument,lakes,orchid garden,butterfly farm etc as far as our feet can take us in conjunction with the World Wide Sketch Crawl #35 ([link]) happening on Saturday 21st this month. Am not too sure how big or how small the group will be this year so I thought that this place would be ideal and we can also have a picnic luncheon together on that day. Please do spread the word around to whoever may be interested and let me know if you are interested. We may kick start it at 10am so it won't be too hot.

Cheers and look forward to meeting and sketching with you there!
