About the Bloggers
When three humans of different world collide to create an art blog
for their computer & information processing class, beautiful disaster is created.
An Introduction
Hello, internet.
This is Elyna speaking. On the internet, I'm more known as Lynn, and among Radhii and Nenek, my genderbent version is called Eli. Call me whichever you're most comfortable using. if you know me in real life in any way though please try sticking to Elyna thanks.
I am the 'youngest' and most 'inexperienced' among the writers of this blog, but since I designed the blog I shall begin the intro post. I am a graphic design student, and I'm not very familiar with prospects of this subject since the vastness varies between universities. You might have noticed but I'm more of a writer than an artist, but I love art in all forms all the same, including literature and performance arts (well, watching it).
My experiences in art include sketching (realism and semi-realism is sort of my style right now but I started off with manga style) and I'm still learning with digital art. I hate coloring traditionally but the texture of paper when touched with pencil is ecstasy to me. Doodling when my thoughts are astray seems to be a habit. my illustrations are highly influenced by Korean idols and style.
I will be mostly posting experiences about trying new things and learning as a graphic student in INTEC, including figuring out template codes without 3-inch thick books and trying new brushes and color pallets on SAI. I'm quite a sullen person unless I start talking about something I'm interested about (which includes things that might bore you; sorry about that) so please forgive my boring writing style!! when it gets casual I can be considerably humorous though, so please anticipate that!
And that's all, reporting from my bed, 11:22pm, first of September 2014! Elyna, Out!
Salutations, friends!
Radhii, speaking! It took me a while to post my own intro, so I'm going to go all-out! Radhiah Ibrahim is my "official" name, Radhiah is my "usual" name, Radhii is my "pet" name, and Haidar is my the name of my "genderbent self."
In terms of art (in all its vastness), I'm only experienced in a tiny spec of it. I began drawing (seriously) at the age of 12 with our handy-dandy columned elementary school books, which I've used to make a comic called Idiotic Impulse. I started drawing digitally in 2011, and have continued to do so til' this day. I also post most of my art online on Twitter and Tumblr (with the user name Toddintops)! Mind you that as much as I am able to draw, COLOURING IS A HUGE CHALLENGE FOR ME... But! I am working on it, and will never give up until I can!
In this blog, I'll be covering multiple fields! My specialty being reviews, particularly reviews on events (because I am a convention junkie--)! But, I will also aid Elyna and Nenek with anecdotes and tips or tricks of my own (if Nenek hasn't covered them all already...)! At the end of each of my posts, I'll share with you a recent artwork/doodle of mine, just so I can keep track of my progress and so you can grow with me as well! I really do hope you'll enjoy our blog, it's super fun to write in, so I hope it'll be super fun to read, too!
So, that's all there is from me! Until next time, do take care, and have a nice day!
Woop~ Hello and welcome to the “get-to-know-you-bloggers” section of this blog.
I’m probably the last person to submit my bio but whatever.
So, my name is Nur Atiqah binti Hassan but you can just call me Nenek. Yes, I’m that Nenek Harmoni and yes, I’m a woman so stop asking about my gender and look in my damn profile. [You lazy ass bums..] Also, my genderbent self/human/creature is called Atif [some of you might have seen him somewhere on the internet, goofing around and being dumb.]
I’m also the creator of Haidar, Eli and Atif .
So yeah, I started drawing seriously when I was 12 and I started with comics mostly. Now I think I have about more than 20 comics created [only 1 is completed though.. *sweats*]. I got serious in drawing because of a friend of mine who also loves to draw. [Unfortunately, he quit drawing as we grew up and that is sad..]
After I got my own tablet on the 25th of December 2011, I went digital and crazy-mass-producing artworks since then. I also gain lots of friends and I’m glad to have them so I guess it’s a great life as an artist.
Enough about my background, I’m going to talk about what I do in this blog. Technically, I just draw tutorials and make tips on how to draw something or how to get inspirations. I think that’s all that I can do because I don’t have any other talent except for drawing..so yea~
Have fun looking around our blog and thank you for visiting~
HOME MADE ART TIPS FROM NENEK 2

HOME MADE ART TIPS FROM NENEK~
[here comes another LONG one..ughh..]
Listen up my grandchildren. Cause today, I'm going to give you some tips on how to draw
MANLY MEN.
1) Chiseled square jaw/strong jaw and square chin. You need them. Yes.
If they are not as square as Spongebob Squarepants, you're doing it wrong.
[why? :
Look at freaking Brad Pitt or Arnold Schwarzenegger. They are manly. yes. ]
2) Thick neck and broad shoudlers. Ooo yes~ and the Superman inverted triangle shape of the abdomen.
You'll be using that A LOT if you want them manly hot bodies.
[why? :
Ever read Fist of the North Star? Toriko perhaps? or maybe Dragonball if you're not well acquainted with the first two. So.. what does the characters' bodies look like? yes. MANLY AS HELL.]
3) Abs and muscles..well.. I dunno if it's a must have [it is a must have, actually, IMHO]
in every manly men but having them makes them manlier. SO PRACTICE ON THEM, NO BUTS!
[why? :
Dude, what's the point of having a manly head but a skinny body? It will not be a 100% manly man cause it's just gonna be a manly head with a lame body.]
4) Thick eyebrows, strong nose and soul piercing eyes. You know what to do here.
[why? :
Like I said, manly men needs manly faces. Put in some scars or something so he doesn't look like a wimp.]
5) HAIRS AND FACIAL HAIRS~ PATCHES OF FURS ALIKE~!
[why? :
Dude. Manly men ain't no babies anymore. Give them some facial hair or chest hairs for more manliness. KEEP THEM TESTOSTERONE RUNNING~!]
6) Strong-ass personalities.
Give them that and you're ready to go for an adventure with your new manly as hell character~
[why? :
Outer appearances ain't everything my grandchildren. The inside counts too. It's what on the inside that brings out what's on the outside.]
CONCLUSION :
So yea. Strong personalities for a man. That's what makes men, A man.
Sure, you look manly as hell with an awesome body built like these above BUT
No matter what size, what your character looks like, if they have the qualities of a manly man in his personalities, he's a manly man already.
Happy reading ya'll.
