Some patterns I've created myself, working from the photos...
This is a visual blog about Hong Kong; regarding the history, people, culture and geography of the place, as well as many other aspects. This will be carried out and explored through research and illustrative sketches, along with brief annotation and explainations that will make up a progress diary.

Pattern Photos - New York
I stumbled upon some photos from when I went to New York on my last course (in 2008). With New York being very similar to Hong Kong, especially in terms of buildings and the size of the city, these are particularly appropriate.
Pattern Photos - Around The House
My bathroom is currently being refurbished, meaning walls, floorboards, etc. are all exposed, giving the perfect opportunity to capture some interesting patterns.
Also included in this set are some nice images from around my bedroom.

Character Photo
My characters in a photo taken in front of a Hong Kong building backdrop...
As metioned earlier, the idea is a generic tourist photo where the people in it aren't very happy, as what a "normal" photo would show.
The bright colours and refelctions on the characters' bodies portray Hong Kong's bright lights, which further adds to the potential enjoyment going on around them that they obviously aren't involved in.

Fighting Masks
Another character interaction idea where the characters are fighting while wearing chinese-style masks (to link with Hong Kong and Chinese culture).
