Some work in progress for 365. Couldn’t sleep so I doodled and then started digitizing it. It’s still not complete yet so here’s a sneak preview. Still not too happy with some of the details yet.

Duration so far: 2 hours

Tried to do pixel art with Fireworks. I guess still need to refine when free. Still learning because the advantages of pixel art in Fireworks is that it will be resizeable. Turned out vector like instead.

Duration : 65 mins

There’ll be no large image for this one.
