ToyCon 2012





Last june 15-17, ToyCon 2012 was held. Me and my comics was able to attend such great event at the Megatrade Hall 1-2. I was so happy when I received an invite to join the artist alley! I'm really honored. Thanks Sherry(of Komikon Inc.) There was really a huge crowd! A lot of cosplayer, fans and enthusiasts were present. On the table I was able to join my fellow comics artists and the Komikon Inc group, we really had a great time. We attended the event for 2 days, june 16th and 17th. Comics sales was good, we also did a lot of sketching, I made 4 fanarts,Batman, Luffy, Deja Thoris and the character from Jon Zamar's Dakila, I was also commissioned to do caricatures for some attendee's, It really makes me smile when I hear comment like "uy kamukha ko nga!" after I hand them over their caricatures, I did 4 caricatures. We were also able to get ourselves "Mighty Mugs" I am still thinking which character to paint the mug to.
The event in general was really a success. It was great that we were next to the booth of Royal, giving away free royal in can drinks which made the crowd pass by our table and have a good look at what we do. :) I'm Looking forward for next years event.

Mabigat ang impluwensya sakin ng anime da ti, hnd ako masyadong exposed sa western comics kaya siguro. Nito na lang ako nakakapag-basa madalas ng mga western comics. Kaya ito ang naging kinalabasan ng artwork. 17 yrs old pa lang ako nung panahong ginawa kong Kagubatan, tungkol ito sa istorya ng isang prinsepeng inatasang magpunta sa kagubatan para sa isang misyon, Kung gusto nyong mabasa ang kabuuan ng komiks, abangan nyo na lamang sa susunod na komikon sa Nobiyembre, kung saan balak kong ilabas ang aking mga short komiks. Sa panahong ito ay ginagawa ko ang book 3 ng mukat komiks ko, kaya mas maayos ang art kumpara sa Payt 4 lab. Nakakatuwang balikan ang mga dati kong ginawang komik...

One thing that i noticed is the language they used, most of the words that Mr. Coching used are words that are new to me, I mean words like "tigmak", "talaksan", "kampilan", "halaghag" etc. I enjoy learning though, you will eventually find out th...
