Jongbom's Jongbominations

[Jong]

a bunch of crappp. I don't even remember when i uploaded these. I think i must have been 15 or 16, maybe




This is the beginning of my tenure in another (competitive) comic site called Entervoid

this is the product of a lack of knowledge of how to convert traditional media into color ready inks on photoshop.


i finally figure out how to convert due to the help of forum members but my improvement is not yet complete...


much better, BUT I AM NOT YET DONE.


NOW. I. am....
done. yeah.

[Jong]

boy, i sure had a cursing problem in my drawings when i was 17.

EDIT: also, shitty poetry. gwargh

[SuperBiasedMan]

Cool, I like seeing your progression as you improved the drawing, very nice.

One thing, you noticed/intended that the guy looks like Sora from Kingdom Hearts, yeah?

[Jong]

after some period of time i began to do less digital coloring and started to experiment with traditionals.



this is probably the last real fine piece i've done in digital coloring. And it isn't even completed.

[Jong]

first time using copics. the color is from tinting in photoshop.


more copic fun, this sort of reminds me of those fascism posters during the german expressionism movement.

Love that one, is the song by the Stray Cats by any chance?

[Jong]

i never heard of stray cats before XD. no this is a song from the band Muse called Stockholm Syndrome.

I like what I see! It's great watching how your style has grown and improved by scrolling down the page, and I'm quite partial to the robosockmonkey (:

[Jong]

robotsockmonkey is actually not my character. Most of this stuff is actually from another site called Entervoid which also deals into comics, the only difference is the characters you make is used to draw comics depicting battles with other characters.

Man, I really liked some of your background details, especially machine or city shots. Those have a lot of linearity that is hard to come back, and I am not sure the gradient of color is working to its advantage. I'd would very much like to see some of those in black and white. ^w^

[Jong]

i finally get into watercolors in 2007




this particular character (after going much redesigns by now), Jong features once in the beginning of chapter one will be featured again the smackjeeve comic.

[Sonic-ock]

You're on fire son! This last watercolor reminds of something Otomo might paint for an Akira thing.

[Jong]

HAHAHA YEAH!
the reason i got into watercoloring was BECAUSE i saw a watercolor of otomo's, and i said to myself: "SHIT, I WANNA DO THAT TOO".
