Hollow Threat + Authentic Counterfeit Clothing
The desire to start a online clothing store came from the "Center of the Universe" design, we want to make this tee for our little boss so bad, it leads to a complete series of Hollow Threat collection, with some new and old artworks, most of the old work has been revisited, tweaked to new standard. Authentic Counterfeit is a fun and silly project where I play with images stuck in my head, a result of the materialistic world we live in today. Are you like me, when you see clown fish, you call...
Tee-ser
There has been a tee idea floating in my head for months, an idea inspired by my 1 year old son, which I've always wanting to make this tee for him but couldn't find the time to actually make it happen, so one day I received an invite to start an on-demand clothing shop, it's perfect for the idea I have, so I decide to create that design....and a few for myself, somehow it end up with a series of Hollow Threat collection plus a little more! So yeah, I'm launching the Hollow Threat clothing + a...

Stealth Update
Have you notice the change? I've quietly updated the interactive header, previous version was made in Flash few years ago, and adobe has slowly ruined one of my favorite program, it's no longer supported on smart devices, and it's bugging me for awhile that I can't see my header showing on my phone/tablet, so I decide to re-animate it in HTML5, hopefully this technology is here to stay! I've added more animations and dynamic to the lions, you can wait to see it happen, or click/tap to interact...
Games on Google Play Store
Finally have the time to bring my games(plus more) to Android, took awhile to get use to Google Play developer console, and I'm impressed with the intuitiveness of Google Play Game service, Goggle is doing something right here, anyways here are my games for all you droid fans... Donut Pirate is a new take on endless catch and dodge game, it's a pretty easy game, but takes a bit of practice to master. I've done some tweaking to Android version, also added achievements to enhance the gaming...

Making of Egg #25 Part 3
Here's the final video of my 3 parts "making of" timelapse, my experiment with new ways to paint and new mediums sponsored by Resene, I normally work with airbrush and fine brushes, but it wouldn't work on the huge egg, so I've adopt new tools for this, roller makes egg-like textures, perfect for the job, and play around with blue masking tape for the first time, glad they all turn out perfectly! Finishing with automotive clearcoat by By Accident Panel & Paint. Thanks to everyone helped...
