Phu Son Nguyen's Journal and Portfolio: Icon!

May 03, 2005

Icon!

I drew this little guy pixel by pixel about a year ago...I never got around to animating him...life has been too crazy since then...especially now.

He has to resort to just being my AIM buddy icon for now! What's cool about this little guy is that I drew him in Photoshop, and used complicated layer settings so that I can change his clothings to any color I want without damaging the shading on him.

I just had one of the longest days ever. Things that could go wrong went wrong...Anyhow I met up with Darren and Yoichiro today for lunch at South Coast Plaza. Yo was telling me about this upcoming ninja competition in Japan since he knows that I wanted to attend ninja school for the longest time (if that exists :lol: )! Apparently the competition is for women only...too bad! Hehe...After that I spent the rest of the day "fixing" broken "things".

I'm officially stressed out! Time for bed, long days ahead...

And if your name is Parnoto and you are reading this, give me a call before you leave the country for good! I might go with you! To Malaysia! :lol:

omg! maybe the first test of Ninja School is finding!!!! :shock: Makes sense right? Maybe we could start one of our own and then kill everyone that shows up...then they will have to admit us to their school and I can finally be like my idol Naruto.

Son... ahahah you sound like such a computer geek. Thank god you are actually sociable and in fact a very cool guy

You told me you outsourced the work for that icon to India! Lies!

Hey Cedric - how's it going? You should start up a blog! Ah yes, and also - when school gets out I should be able to make you a simple admin page for your website.

that's a loooot of effort to put into an icon.

Go to the ninja school. just grow your hair a little longer or something.

Cedric, how's it going at the office as usual? Thanks for stopping by! I can be a geek if I want to though, on second thought, I can be anything! It's my forte! :grin:

David, hehehe, he so lied! Outsourcing to Son instead with my super duper artisitic skillz! :lol:

Derek, thanks! Yeah everything is kinda crapping out on me at the moment...school..life...school! :confused: And I'm tired of people that never return my calls, emails, etc... except for my friends of course...

Norm, yeah it did take a lot of efforts, but it was made for a special someone...and yes, ninja school! Don't you mean I should spike my hair up and put on a bandit mask, I'd be the coolest looking ninja ever! For real! :exclaim:

no.. if they're for women only you should grow your hair long and pretend to be one..

Son - May 5, 2005 11:16 PM

Maybe you should grow your hair longer too and join me in the competition Norm!!!!
