First Real 2008 Post

Filed Under Elmer, General, Humanis Rex!, My Comics, Timawa | 10 Comments

The past couple of months have been a blur. As far as I’m concerned, yesterday was the end of 2007, and today is a new day, and a new year. It feels very much like a whole new, and whole different chapter in my life.
I worked like mad for the past several weeks just to [...]

My 2007. I Hated It.

Filed Under Dr. Rizal, Elmer, Filipino Artists, Humanis Rex!, My Comics, Online Comics, Philippine Comics, Timawa | 9 Comments

In my earlier post I mentioned that it would be my last update for 2007. It turns out I had something more to say with only one day to go before 2008. I want to get all this out of my system before a new year comes rolling along so I can talk about something [...]

Incommunicado, Somewhat.

Filed Under Elmer, Humanis Rex!, My Comics, Timawa | 1 Comment

Hello! Only a couple or so more weeks before Komikon and my work sked is simply unbelievable. To be able to finish my projects in time, specially Elmer #3 for Komikon, I’m really going to have to go incommunicado for a while. I won’t make any lengthy essays on my blog, no videos, and if [...]

My Drawing Tools

Filed Under Dr. Rizal, Elmer, Humanis Rex!, My Comics | 15 Comments

Arno from the comments section asked me about my drawing tools and I thought I’d post a scan of some of the things I use to create my comics.

I use a variety of tools, combinations of which differ with the kinds of projects I do. From the top, the first thing there is a Staedtler [...]

Toycon, Komikon 2007 Plans

Filed Under Dr. Rizal, Elmer, Humanis Rex! | 5 Comments

Several people have asked why I wasn’t at the recent Toycon. I really didn’t plan on coming this year. In fact, I didn’t attend other comics events recently like the one in Mall of Asia, and I most likely won’t go to the Sci-Fi con as well. I just decided to concentrate on just working, [...]

My Own Font! Plus Humanis Rex! and Amazing Dr. Rizal

Filed Under Dr. Rizal, Humanis Rex!, My Comics | 10 Comments

I’ve always wanted to hand letter my own comics. And I wanted to letter them on the original artwork because I believe it to be an integral part of the art of a comic book page. And I still believe it. It’s something I will apply to certain special projects like ELMER, which I will [...]

A New Monitor

Filed Under Humanis Rex!, My Comics | 2 Comments

My old monitor had been going screwy since late last year. It developed a slight flicker on top of the screen which disappeared after the monitor warmed up a bit. The flicker disappeared after longer and longer periods of time, until it never went away at all.
I’ve had to resort to shrinking the screen a [...]

The End of Humanis Rex!

Filed Under Humanis Rex!, My Comics | 10 Comments

Humanis Rex! was a proposal I’ve had in mind for many years. It was part of a proposal package I sent to a local newspaper for their Sunday color strips. That didn’t push through for one reason or another, and I proposed it again to another publication, this time a hobby magazine. Unfortunately the magazine [...]
