I don't know if you call this "breaking my silence" but I've been quiet for such a long time here. Actually I've been so much busy with my work and some of my "curricular activities". Anyways I updated my deviations here and I hope you like few of my old and new works.

By the way, DA Portfolio is cool! It is quite simple but it is so useful.

Regards to all!

Hi guys! I still can't post any deviations nor longer write-ups because I am still finishing our graphic novel. We are planning to release it by 2nd quarter of this year (i hope so, it still depends upon our publishers decision). We do not really want to rush it because we don't want to ruin the art. Doing digital paints is harder than I thought! phew! Anyways hope to return here the soonest. God bless!!!

KOMIKON 2008 here we come!

November 22 is the scheduled date for the Philippines annual Comics Convention at UP Diliman and we are proud to announce that it would also be the day we will be showing the teaser of our ongoing project, the MAJARLICA: BAYAN NG AGIMAT which Mr. Danny Acuña and I collaborated. Sir Danny did the story and linearts and I made the digital paints (colours).

I still can’t put the synopsis of the story here, maybe next time. Take a sneak peak on our upcoming graphic novel! Coming this January 2009!
