3rd year 1st term results *update
...and it wasn't what I would expect.
But I think I can justify why.
Leo's
I know I struggled from the beginning until the middle part, towards the end did it only get easier + I know how to properly digi-paint.
I stink at Palette Knife, did better with Artist Oil, SUCKED BIG TIME at Ping-Fan/chinese painting style(and two assigments, at that, one was subjected to a redo), botched the Hero assignment (I ter-ugli-fied Sigurd, but somehow made the dragon more awesome than the main character o_O;), and did the Best I can for the final.
But I guess my Final marks couldn't pull the rest of the assignments' grades up.
CK's workshop
...I forgot CK's standard for things. Totally.
I distinctly remember him for being the Walking Horror, and the way he demands the most in Perspective Studies class, but seeing him again this year he seemed super-mellowed --- but his standard never changed.
There's only two assignments, one being the CD cover, and the other being the Editorial design. The rest is classwork - which I'd done with better classmates to work with. But looking at it, I think the classwork don't count that much --- it's the two assignments, the major one being the Editorial.
...which I'd also struggled for the first 4 weeks before a breakthrough. (duration given was 5 weeks).
And while I had thought the work was good, looking at it now, it wasn't as good as I thought =__=
Hitler's camp
Well, you already know what happened with this guy. The sadist who gives us "turning points" for own good, when in fact he's just taking it out on us students for we have no right to rebel (or so he thinks.)
At least he hadn't failed me or given me just a credit for all the ungodly hours I put in.
(if he did, the first thing I'll do is set fire to IL Dept and demand to see Leo. At all costs.)
I only know that I suffered the most for this class, looking at the number of rejects (5 assignments, a record), and I only managed to finish 4 of the redo-es in 1 week.
I learnt the meaning of suffer, the point of turning point, the true nature of Hitler, and that God forbid, in the future I don't end up doing advertising visuals. I'm not afraid of it, I'm just so SICK and FEDUP of it.
Kin Sun
Kin Sun! He was actually nicer this term - or rather, after that unethical explosion back before CNY, he didn't yell at us as much, and also started talking to us on a normal level --- it's a good change, really.
We're only wondering how long this time will last, or whether he'll be back to his leonine self by next term.
But at any rate, we're keeping fingers crossed for the good KS to continue teaching us until the day we graduate *fingers crossed
The tutor Ivan was a good help too. At least he wasn't as dumb as the other tutor who totally spoiled acrylics class for us last year. Ivan actually knows how to handle our bunch of misfits and shared some good stuff with us - and dunno why, but it seemed he's closer to me than the rest of the class...he called me twice on my mobile to help him settle some assignment submissions, and I thought he woulda called the class rep or something to do it. Guess he trusts me.......?

Technically, he was my junior (batch 58), but he connects well with the rest of us, so I guess if there's one tutor I'm looking forward to, it'll be him.
I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANOTHER HITLER AND WOODSTUMP AND WALLFLOWERS!--- *machine-guns and reaps the field
---------------
Odd to find there's no new timetable yet o__O;
D/l-ed the new timtetable this morning.
And the greatest news, ever, after these many days
NO MORE GRAD CAMPAIGN! WOOHOO!!!! *fireworks, baby!
Well, for this term anyway. I bet they'd pushed it to the final term, but by then I'll fight my case with them >D
There's still the Portfolio class to contend with though, and a dodgy one called Business & Client Management headed by an equally dodgy name of Dr.Vincent (doctor? teaching business class? whut? O_O;;)
So, later, I'm *still* going to war with SRA. Wish me luck, and if negotiations fail,
It will not be a pleasant sight,
but IL0901-1 will either have to buck up, or die, coz I ain't saving them. Not this time.
I'm going solo for Concept Art class for now.
AND I'm looking forward to Saturday class! Manga drawing with Kidchan~~~
