Month: April 2009

Upcoming Things and Stuff

The Secret Identities anthology has hit the shelves, see some coverage here , here and at Amazon.com. Basically an attempt to address the issue of why there are so few asian superheroes in American mainstream comics (or anywhere else for that matter), despite many asian-american creators in the industry and amongst fans who read comics.

In the meanwhille, will be attending a panel at Pekomikon on April 25 at the Putra World Trade Center in K.L.

On May 2 (Sat) will be talking about comics in Singapore together with Johnny Lau (Mr Kiasu!) and others at Ignite, 10am-5.30pm, Lee Foundation Theatre, NAFA Campus 3.

In the meanwhile : Je ne parle pas francios!

Shopping

Trying out a online store for original art and other stuff. Teething problems ~~may~~ will be experienced :p

Any feedback on preferred items, prices, payment methods etc welcome! 🙂

Pride and Prejudice Covers

Cover for issues 3 and 5 of Marvel’s Pride and Prejudice Adaptation… Issue 3 started as oil on board with digital touchups, Issue 5 is just digital. Its the old problem though – digital artwork is much more efficient but leaves you without an original, which is still a valid thing to want, despite all the talk about hyperreality :p

craptacular spiderman

crikey just realised there was a major screwup when i sent the final pages for the spiderman pages last month. Was rushing to meet the deadline before the trip to france so when the request came to resend the files in 400 dpi i must slipped up somehwere down the line.

the image on left was the intended final art, the one on the right i sent at 400 dpi, which is really an earlier WIP version.

some of the pages they finally used weren’t even given the halftone treatment in photoshop.

A really bad screwup on my part
