Your notion of colorful Asia… (Idea generation + Sketches)

For this assignment, we need to come out with a postcard (both front & back) with size of A6. We need to do colour studies and also chose the actual design that we chose. This post card is to introduce and give impression of asia. For example, what is unique about asia? (Cultural, political etc). We can also complain about asia too. :D

I personally find that this assignment is quite tough because we need to play around with colours and also coming up with idea is also very difficult! I try not to touch on food, national flower, costume of various culture, landmark etc but abit difficult cause it seems like all this is the essence of asia. haha!

Anyway, my initial idea was to take photo of different races and piece them together but again due to time constraint, I have to scrape this idea! hoho! I went googling about colourful asia and most of them shows costumes and etc~ So this idea came to my mind.. "Cultural yet Modern".

I tried to convery my idea by drawing this asian girl desipte being cultural (the head with the chun-li hair style), asian is also modern by drawing modern clothings (The "bat man" shirt with "high cut short"). The ballon is being drawn in to show that asia is happy and fun! :D Next, I also drew this guy whose hair and looks look modern but is wearing traditional chinese clothes. After further look at the guy, I find that the guy's hair, face etc doesn't look modern at all! LOL! I got not much time left so I left out the guy and do a CG version for the girl. Its not sexist! haha!

Here are the sketches... :D

Sketch #1 - girl with chunli hair!

Sketch #2 - "modern guy"
