-Design
a uniform for a 21st Century security guard. -Avoid aggressive look. Final: (Mid-March) |
I had chosen to do a uniform for a
female casino security guard. The intended uniform is
made of high-tech
bullet/laser/fire/chemical/radiation-proof. Strong,
bright colours and slim cut used to reduce aggressive
look. Various flaws: the figure looks weird. Layout not well planned, and rendering not of standard. |

-Sarong/Wrap-around for a late 20's,
early 30's Asian woman. -Formal/informal occasion costume, for an opening function. -Costume must be sensational. Final: (3rd July) |
The plate was done for a
class test. A 3 hour duration was given for us to
complete the plate from scratch, impromptu, with only our
sketches for reference. Questions are given out a week before the test for preparatory work. Various flaws: layout and rendering rather slipshod. Design concept unclear. |

-Fashion
plate for A-level project. (Plate 1) -Intestine-inspired, stringy top to be tied/wrapped around body. -Separate skirt with high slits are both sides. Translucent material, with blood/veins-inspired prints. Final:
(Mid-May) |
8 plates are to be produced for the
A-level project. The deadline is the end of July. So far,
I've done 4 plates, but the other three are
unsatisfactory. I've decided to continue with the human body theme for the rest of the 7 plates. Various flaws: outlines can be less harsh. A broken, dark brownish outline, using dry-brush technique would be more suitable. |

-Formal
costume for a cultural event, to be designed for an Asian
woman, in her 30's. -Costume to be designed with infuences pertaining to a named country or culture. Final: (10th Oct) |
This question was posed to us for our
1998 final year exams, to determine more or less if we'd
pass our Art. As usual, a 3 hour duration was given to
complete the plate from scratch, with only our sketches
as reference. I had decided to name Japan as the country of influence, and decided to stylize the traditional kimono. The Ubi (waist strap) is a long gold strip of cloth to go round. Various flaws: sleeve seemingly overdone; could have been better if the gold strip wasn't repeated there. |
