This year’s alumni homecoming promises to be most exciting and rewarding as different members of the different batches from 1961 to 2009 comes back again to Divine Word Academy of Dagupan to relive once again the memories of their stay in this institution.

For more than 52 years our beloved institution has drawn young men and women from all parts of Luzon and we have sent forth alumni who carry DWAD’s spirit with them as they pursue their lives and careers in different parts of the country and abroad.

This year’s Alumni Homecoming with its theme: “UNITED DIVINIANS, SHARING AND COMING HOME” provides an unequaled opportunity to see old friends, meet new ones, learn about the different changes happening in DWAD and reminisce once again the memories of your stay here.

7th National Scale Model Competition

the 7th National Scale Model Competition was held at the Megamall from Nov 16-22, 2009. I just past by before going to church to hear a mass. Plenty of scale models were displayed, I was amazed at the detail and the number of scale models on display! It really was amazing! I took some pictures of those models you check them out below. I wish I can have one too, but I dont have the space and the money to have one yet.

no, this is not a scale model. This is me!

Mlu journal: Halloween

Well its been a while since I last updated my blog, been busy these past few days or maybe I'm just lazy. The drawing above is my fan art for Twilight saga: New Moon. My girlfriend really likes this series so much so I guest I have to love it too. :) Just got from a mass earlier, today, Nov 1 is the "All Saints Day" and tomorrow is the "All Souls Day" I was not able to go back to Pangasinan though.

I'm looking forward for to see the new Astro Boy movie! :) I'm also a fan of that boy. I was supposed to be seeing it with Lulu but I screwed it up. Well, I hope we can see the movie before its not showing in theaters anymore. Happy Halloween! :)

Ballpen Sketches

Spiderman sketch

Nightwing and Huntress Sketch

Ichigo Sketch

This one's my Original character "Shooter"

I did most of these sketches at the office when we have high avail time(meaning, there are no calls on que). What I do is bring a piece of coupon bond, divide it into 4 equal parts and do the sketches. I draw anything under the sun, most of the time I do Fan arts of superheroes and animes.

My original creation MLU was also done this way as well as the thumbnails for my Baboy original comics.

Using ballpen as a sketching pen s not easy, specially if you're not used to it but once you got the hang of it, it's not as hard as it looks. So how does it go when you make a mistake? For me, you just have to continue skecthing, some minor errors can be remidied, but some mistakes need to be redone. Hope you like my sketches you can check my DA specially dedicated to ballpen sketches here.
