I did not make it time for the mutation-nation. Sometimes I don’t have control over what life brings around and this time it was more clients work. I am put here this developing concept for a mutated polar beast, or just polar beast. Too early to say whether it’s mutated. It looks kind of cool, though. I like the oblong shape of it. I guess it could have rocket launcher mechanism assembled to its back and as that, be used to protect a secret polar base. whoo-hoo!
Back to iPhone smearing. I have got so much going on at the minute that if make the deadline for the “mutation nation” contest – it will be a success on its own. I know I am going for something with claws… that’s pretty much it. I like the sketch, though and if not now – I will use it oneday.
Just as I was becoming a Sketchbook mobile convert, the Brushes poked it’s head out with its somehow quicker and more responsive interface. It’s a good thing I don’t have to make up my mind.
Done in Sketchbook on iPhone. I am going for a Bobby Chiu feel with this one. Whether I will succeed, I am not sure as the guy is a genius when it comes to ‘cute’n’crazy’.
Let this at least be a tribute to him and his art.
One of the most art-driven people I have come across.

Loving the Sketchbook app for iphone. I am trying both Brushes and the Autodesk’s Sketchbook and so far, must say – Sketchbook has the edge. Zooming, detailing, customization of the brushes, canvas size after transporting to photoshop (320 X 480 px for Brushes vs 682 x 1024 for Sketchbook) and many more make it a brilliant little tool for experimenting with ideas in colour when you’re on the move. This little creep has been done entirely in iPhone with only the type pasted in.

Of course, Brushes is great and I’ll keep using it. It has quite a variety of cool brushes, also works with layers, starts up faster than Sketchbook and somehow manages to feel more organic – kinda like Painter compared to Photoshop. I like it all the more since I discovered that double-tap in the right hand corner activates the brush size options.
I’ve purposely placed both app icons close to one another so that whichever I accidentally tap on – becomes my tool of the hour.
