Slowly building up merch

Image
Recently ive been seeing my artist friends making their own shirts, stickers, popsockets etc & even selling some in cons. Lucky there's a bunch of services that does these in Tokopedia & Bukalapak. In this era of customization, why not print your own designs on everyday stuff you use? Here's one of my earlier designs but just got printed way later. This one's from my friend's friend's printing service, 4ND. Believe it or not, the sticker glows in the dark, though not as strong. Original design: Up next is this one, based on a quote by Shooteraskota Earlier I contacted someone off of Tokopedia to print this exact design but they didn't do a good job. So it's up to 4ND printshop to fix everything... well not fix, technically, they just made me a new one. Oh I almost forgot, last year, thanks to BMS Graphics, I got this. It was my first time printing a custom design T-shirt that time, out of a friend's recommendation cuz he g...

Collecting Alternatives

Image
[ originally posted on my personal blog ] Back in April I decided to use the unused company Instagram account I managed back in Brunei, cuz I assumed the company's dead, cuz the other admins never touched it. Started posting artworks there, met new people, yada yada. Tbh I was surprised, some people I knew through Instagram thought I was obsessed with online bike cab services (ojol) like, always comparing Gojek, Grab & Uber (RIP) and later Anterin & GlaD, to the point of making comics about them. I thought... "that wasn't me at all, I thought i've always been known for my bands & cartoons fan comics". During the first years of "internet recognition" i was known for my fanart & fancomics of emo & alternative rock bands (if you know me from deviantart or high school). I thought the impression would last but turns out in the later years, nobody still knew who i was. Just another My Chem pic, 2008 farewell...

Meet The Artist meme + MyArtSpace meme

Image
Everyone's doing it so why not? *jumps in the wagon* Twitter | Tumblr | Soup Here's another meme I forgot to post, MyArtSpace

all patterns and no shading peaceful portraits

It started out just drawing a random profile picture for myself cuz I needed one. I might've found a picture with this kind of style (lots of lineart + flat colors) online and thought of making one for myself. But once all my 3 sisters, their friends and one of my friends found out, they wanted one for themselves too. Man, it felt like the Black Parade Fangirlness days all over again where everyone wants a drawing in a certain style from me. But hey this one took fast (not so fast with the tedious patterns) and I could probably do like four-five in a day. So much purple... why is purple so popular D: second batch:

My very first comic EVER!

Image
Once again digging through my collection of old artworks (not-so-narcissistically) and found this old gem. It's back when I was 7 & started doing comics for the first time. The comic's titled "Little Green Fairies" and it was completely in Indonesian, cuz I don't speak English much at that age. But no prob folks, translation will be provided. Here's the back page, actually. The character's names are based on my sister & cousin (though my cousin's actual name is Nisya. I didn't know how to spell her name right yet back then). This comic was born in January 1999. Translation: LITTLE GREEN FAIRIES by Rara in: "Having Fun" 1. One day, the Little Green Fairies are having a picnic at their grandma & grandpa's house. Nisya: Delicious! Alta: Yummy! 2. And then the two walked back home. How joyful. Nisya: Let's go home Alta: Oh, how fun. 3. While they were having fun, they were making milk,...

4 OS deviantID

This idea unsurprisingly came during bedtime when I was trying hard to sleep. Forcing to sleep sorta made the brain even more active & insomniac. Don't know why I was thinking of operating systems that time but just thinking about it, it would be cool to sit on a Windows window while eating a silver Apple apple. And wearing some schmancy clothes like a classy Madame. The Tux doll (representing Linux) & that random alien (representing Alienware, still not sure about the color scheme) could probably be that I haven't tried Linux or Alienware yet. The transparent PNG version. Without the night sky it looks a bit empty. But hey, transparency is cool. Here's the third version. It looks quite unlikely to be presented but I thought of making a dripping effect (though I doubt it'll look good)

BUTTONS!

Image
Just shamelessly showing off my button collection. Been dying to make these since 4 years ago until I finally get my hands on a buttonmaker. HAH. JUST KIDDING. The so-called buttonmaker is here . The REAL button collection is here btw. And I still have no buttonmaker IRL.

A new start

Alright then. Some of you might know me as Chocoreaper on deviantART, or as Loserificus from Soup.io, or some internet aliases. Well I just made this blog as yet again another platform/portal to dump & display my artworks. An art blog. Not gonna make too much accounts online But still. This is a fresh start. So... here it is. I'm R2 and this is what I do. I've been a comic artist for a while now & I draw a lot of pictures as shown in my showreel. 2011 showreel Examples of my works Comics: Drawings & Graphic Design (sort of): Animation samples: Flying Toaster\'s New Menu Tumblr Then & Now And... well... some other miscellaneous things
