Arsenal


I just copyrighted this character recently. I already have a great story plot for this one. But I have not break it down to separate pages yet. Im still very busy with my work in programming and on Kalayaan comics. Maybe in the near future if God is willing I could do a series on Arsenal.

Ripclaw and CyberCat


This is a drawing that I did way back on my collage days. During the blooming of the image comics. I hope you guys like it as much as I did.
I think I'm going to buy a much cheaper A4 scanner rather than the big A3 scanner that I just mentioned on my last blog. The reason is that its soo darn expensive. The cheapest was a Musteck A3 which cost 16,000.00 Phil. peso and some goes as high as 60,000 peso. I do not have that much money to spend for a scanner. While a Genius A4 scanner only cost P2,100. The other reason is that right now im just doing a ash can comics which I draw on a 7x10 inch work area, meaning to say, that it will only be a waste if Im going to buy the expensive one. The works that I have previously done on a 10x15, I will just have to scan twice. One on the lower part and the other on the upper part. And just put it together using photoshop. Much more tedious work, but as for now, that is what I should do.

Broken Scanner



My 9 year old scanner finally broke down on me. I'm actually surprised it lasted this long. Now, I'm on a hunt for a USB 10x15 inch scanner. Preferrably a Mustek A3
scanner which Gerry Alanguilan recomended. But he says it is much expensive than an ordinary bond paper size scanner. So I better save up some money from this day on forward. I will be just posting my Old works that I have already scanned for the time being. Until I got my new scanner.

Kalayaan with Colors


Here is a pin-up that I created a while back, but with colors now. Its only flat colors, but still looks good.

In a future post here, I might put some villains of the Kalayaan comics that Im working on. But I havent copyrighted them yet, so Im a little hesitant to show them on to the public yet.

I just went to My deviantART and updated my Drawings. I cant believe the great responds that I got from them. Even when I just have put them for a few minutes. Even now I still think of my self as a strugling artist. A few months ago I got dipress on the way I draw. Coz I think of my self is not very good. But I'm ok now. I'm drawing things as much as there is a free time and I still have the streght comming from the office. And for those of you great people that have given me a positive comment in my deviantART. I just want to say that theres alot more to come. I hope not to disappoint you in the comming future.

Kalayaan and Maskarado Team-up



A few weeks ago I got an email from a good friend(even thoe we have never met in person), Reno Maniquis creator of Maskarado(One of my favorite comics). He said that he will be starting the Maskarado and Kalayaan Team-up that we have been planning for quite sometime. I'm very exited about it. I plan to draw a few pin-ups this comming week.

I'm still busy with my work in Database programming in the office(as usual). But, as much as I can, I'm trying to finish Kalayaan #1. Only a few pages more that I have to pencil. There are alot more work to be done. I still have to ink all the pages,scan them to my computer, put captions and finishing. And theres the printing and publishing stuff. There was a saying, "You will never know, until you try it." Now, I realy have a great respect for the people who make independent comics. I salute you guys, you give determination and perservirance a whole new meaning.

Happy Fathers Day



Some guy are called Mamas boy. But me I’m a Papas boy.Well, that is atlease when I still used to live with them. I’m very closer to my Dad than to my mom. I guess because he is much fun to be with and much tolerable on my naughtyness.

My Father almost died when I was still 9 years old. When one late night,some bastard tried to rob our sari sari store. He was stabed a little bit above the NECK,below his left jaw, but he still manages to chase the robber down the street (is he tough or what ). The bastard got away. My Dad went back to our store to see if my mom is ok, only to found out that he was bleeding to death. It was a good thing my uncle and cousin arived there from their work. They immediately put my Dad on to their car and rushed to the hospital. It was one of my unforgetable night. I wasn't there at the store when it happened. I was with my brother and sisters at home (I was the younges). But it's was a terrifiying though to loose my Dad. On the comming July 4,2006 he will now be 76 YEARS OLD. Imagine that, I thank God very much that he survived this long and pray that he would have more years to come.

At long last - Finally

At long last, I have finally copyrighted my character Kalayaan last June 2. I hope that is the rght word, copyright. Because according to an email that I received from the National Library. Here is what she said "Actually the names of those characters are not copyrighted but are registered trademarks of the person or corporation that owns them. If you will notice specially with the foreign characters you mentioned, there are "tm"s after the names of the characters when used, that is because they are registered trademarks"

Anyway, as long as its registered to me, thats just fine with me.

My First Page

This is the very first 10x15 inch sequencial art that I ever created way back in 1995. That was the time when I was starting to study the way to make a comics.
I know, its only a copy of Jim Lee page of his WildCats, but I just wanted only to feel whats it like to draw on a professional level.
