Day 1 is over and thanks to all those who came down to support the local artist community! Its great to see lotsa cool artists and artworks at the event and will be there again on the 2nd day, but in the late afternoon. So do drop by and say hi, even though i didn't print much to sell (the 2 l4d prints only) lol. Will be updating this space after the event :3


_{PS: I
COSFEST}

So i lied about updating soon, back in january...

And i haven't been on dA for some time, and my excuses are work, laziness and L4D. And while i was back browsing through the piled up deviations and journals on my account earlier today, i realised how much i've missed here. How much everyone progressed. I felt ashamed that i should've put more effort in my spare time to brush up my skills and stuff. With that said, i feel more motivated to push on from this point now. :3


So... tell me what exciting things are happening in your lives now? :3

Time sure flies by fast XD; its been 2 months since my last update!

Before anything else, hope all of you guys had a good start of the new year so far and a great 2009 ahead! For all those who are still in the festive mood, happy chinese new year 恭贺牛年，万事如意！

Been busy working on projects for the past weeks and finally cleared most of the current urgent stuff for the upcoming events. Heh, sorry guys (you-know-who-you-are), for the delays and procrastinations despite what i've promised... >w<;;; suman!


Cosplay Challenge & S.O.Y.A.

I'll be participating... or rather, i've taken part in the making of stuff to be sold at these 2 events under NUSCAS and C.D.S. Btw, S.O.Y.A., short for "Start Of Year Again!" is an event held by Ngee Ann Polytechnic's Japanese Tsubasa Club held @ Ngee Ann Poly (but of course...) and Cosplay Challenge held @ Singapore Discovery Centre. Both will be up this coming Saturday, 31st Jan 2009 so do plan wisely XD; For more info check the above links ne. And on with the products!

Hi. Lol. I've been away from this community for so long that i can't remember how to do this... XD; Anyways, this will possibly be a long journal entry so i'll split up into sections, read those that might be relevant to your interests


About deviantART V6

Powerful.
Naaah~ XD but like how the promotional video said it i do like the new sleek design and of course the convenience of the thumbnails and previews in the messages, that once was a subscriber-only previlege. Thanks :3

Joined the party as part of NUS Anime Club and CDS and it was a great experience!
The preparation part was kinda stressful, XD; thanks to and hur hur. But i leveled up in the process! (i think...)

About Art Stuff

While i'm still looking for a job irl, i'll try to generate art as much as i can :3 Which brings me to the next point, i wanna ask you guys out there who have experiences with commissions. I'm thinking of doing some commissions to support this NEET me b4 i get hired and also to improve myself as i go. Can anyone advice on the standard rules, rates and stuff? >w<; Even though i don't know if any kind souls will commish me in the first place, any help and advices will be greatly appreciated! XD Thanks!
