Had been to the botanical garden at Kondapur today.. Few clicks that i liked..
Choke me not
Found these statues covered in polythene sheets under the flyover near cyber tower.. It is spooky when you see them at night..
Madhapur Panorama
Ayyappa Society road, Madhapur, Hyderabad.
Clicked this photo from my Hostel's balcony.. Thought i'll post this as i'll bid adieu to Madhapur this weekend :( The clouds in the backdrop resemble dinosaurs :)
Horsinx
Recently i read about James Cameron's plans of making two sequels of Avatar.. There were hints of having the story shot underwater.. I came up with this concept taking inspiration from the first part :) Hope JC would consider my design ;)
Ocarcyx Mantis
Lately i got interested in creature concept art..This is my first try :) Ocarcyx mantis.. It's an insect living in the forests of Pandora that James Cameron doesn't know about.. :)
It has wings like that of a dragon fly..But heavier and hairy too.. It has spiny structures in the front that is used to sting enemies..

I was very excited about this year's International Animation Day.. I have a reason.. Last year i missed it because i was preparing for my engineering arrear exam :( I was very upset then.. Today i'm proud to be a part of the company that organises this mega event..
This is an event that no one in the animation & visual effects field should miss..Lot of inspiration, knowledge and fun .. I loved the short films screened here..I was spellbound by the creativity of the artists..I realised how far i need to go in perfecting my art..
Photos of the event on Animation Express:
Wanded !
Found this funny advertisement while travelling by bus in chennai.. Wonder who granted them an ISO certification :)
Taylor Swift ??
Attempted a sketch of Taylor Swift and this is how it ended up..She is a great singer and she definitely deserves to look better on this sketch :) I need to work a lot on portraits..especially of women..For a greater part of my childhood i thought drawing women is a sin :)
TetraArm
Inspired by some concept art blogs i visited lately, I've tried a concept sketch..This is TetraArm...A Cyborg wielding a pair of robotic arms and a pair of electric lashes.. He is a mean man-machine organism, insensitive to pain and fatigue..
Out of fuel !!
What happens when an aeroplane runs out of fuel :) This is an image compositing work done using photoshop..This idea struck me when i was going through a news on fuel shortage..It's a crazy idea :) But it was fun imagining a heavy metal bird floating on the clouds, having run out of fuel..Placed the birds in the foreground mocking the aeroplane..
Charminar sketch
Colored by smudging the sketch below using water and by giving a wash with brown paint..
Used black microtip pen and pencil to create the sketch..Used pencil to sketch the Charminar to create a sense of atmosphere and depth..I guess i should have varied the thickness of the lines from the foreground to the background.. Used a photo i had taken earlier as the reference..
Golconda fort
I had a visit to the magnificent fort of Golconda during last month..It was constructed during the 13th century..The fortress is made up of granite..It was built by the Kakatiya kings and later taken over by the Qutb Shahi kingdom.. Now don't think i'm so good at history.. All thanks to Wikipedia :)
Stairway to heaven.. Model: Shiva
Let me cross
Crossing roads has become a nightmare these days..I consider crossing Hyderabadi roads a feat ! I get intimidated by the vehicles every time i cross the road..Few days back i was running from one side of the road to another trying to cross..I felt like i was in the midst of a maelstrom of vehicles..
Charming Charminar
I was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of a camel during my visit to the bangle market near the Charminar
The bangle market

Hyderabad, first day
It was a pleasure to see these birds welcome me to the city, as I stepped out of Nampally railway station
