NOT // hextype beta

Change. Again.

I have just gotten a free domain while helping my client, Accsense Consulting Pte Ltd, get her's. Therefore, I will be moving my portfolio to that new domain. However, I still cannot decide what to christen my domain since www.not.com was already taken. Right now, I have these options: www.notaboutnot.com, www.wearenot.com, www.notnotnot.com, www.nothere.com, www.notandyou.com, www.notaboutwill.com (again), www.notgoodbyeishello.com, www.notadesignstudio.com, www.notstrate-magic.com, www.nottogether.com, www.notapart.com and www.notforever.com. Whatever it is, the most important thing is to use the word "not" to good effect.

Before all that happen, I will be blogging stuff I think is not not cool back over at tumblr. Please enjoy following me there. I will be very polite there. Meanwhile, this blog will only be updated if I have commercial projects or personal work to share. It will cease once I gotten myself straight.

Issue 02.10 // Nice. Web. Comics.

Founded in 2009 by Jordan Crane, What Things Do is a web comic site featuring comic artists such as Steven Weissman, Sammy Harkham and Jordan Crane himself. Weissman's This Already Happened is definitely my favourite comic on any medium right now!


Hark! A Vagrant is an extremely funny web comic by Kate Beaton. If you want to learn about western history, literature and Canadians in a light-hearted way, this is the best place to be.

Ok Go's video for the song This Too Shall Pass off their new album Of the Blue Colour of the Sky. My absolute favorite part starts at 2:37 until the end.

Okay that is it. There is only one this week.

Various Illustrations

This is a front cover illustration was for an annual report pitch which we didn't get while I was at the company after Orbital.


This is one of the spreads from the concept that was accepted by Meridian Junior College. However, I left Orbital before it was complete and, hence, not sure if it finally ends up in the yearbook.


I edited the original verson with the style I use now. A proposed concept which didn't make the cut. My other concept won the pitch.


This is a front cover illustration was for a calendar pitch which we didn't get while I was at the company after Orbital.

Zsofi Tapas Bar

Art directed and designed a saleskit and weekly promotion flyers and posters for a local tapas bar, Zsofi. Using colours and illustrations that are synonymous with Spain, a visual branding was created to differentiate and stand out from other similar themed bar.

A stop motion video by Nobody Beats the Drum [Via ChangetheThought]. After watching the video, I spent the rest of the day wondering how they plan for such a shoot.


Kanye West has redesign his blog, and on it a new music video.


Michael Moloney, a filmmaker, and John Hooper, a photographer, collaborated on this video for If You Could Collaborate. Watch out for the part when they filmed camera flashes on the hillside at about 0:40. [Via Kitsune Noir]
