Plans + AX Report + On-Line Order

Wed Jul 8, 2009, 11:27 PM
Plans for the near future:
1. start working on a comic contest that's due later this year.
2. start working on MYth: Eternal Gift. (post on SJ only)
3. keep working on MADAM and ROF.

And everything mentioned above will be done under the distraction of my 1 yr. old baby niece... (she's a MAJOR distraction, a cute one, but still....)


a brief report:

It was the second time I went to LA convention center (first time was for my naturalization ceremony~ ^__^) but it seemed so different with all the cosplayers, etc...XD

My table was next to :iconmarika: and right behind :icongem2niki:
but then, I was too shy and failed to talk to neither of them.... orz
I was stuck at my table 90% of the time (out of all 4 days)
Honestly I didn't eat and sleep well on the first 2 days. (It's not your house, Rachael! it was me!) I get bronchitis rather easily whenever I get exposed to cold wind, and stupid me forgot to bring warmer jacket...and so..yeah... I got REALLY sick by Friday night. (headache, sore muscle, running nose, body ache all over!) But I still had to stay up really late to sort out my items and displays. A friend bought one of those flu hot drinks just so I can still function the next day.

Thanks again for all those who visited my table. I tried to look normal, but I had a box of kleenex hiding under my table...and instead of lunch, I had a bag of flu hot drink =口=lll


I saw people started signing the big Micheal Jackson memorial board when I walked by the front of Staples center on Friday afternoon. Too bad I felt so sick I had to go home for the night...TT__TT When I went back to the Staples center on Sunday (after AX), the board had no empty space left.... orz

anyway, I went to see the OMD today for herbs to fully cure my sickness. (my throat hurts so bad from all the coughing) Well, the doctor said I should feel fine after 4 days of herbs, so I should be okay.

Finally done with artist alley.... !
It was my first time ever, made a lot of mistakes, but at least now I know better...lll
I met :iconscullylam: and several other people. I am sorry that I forgot your names....TT__TT !!! Please send me a note if you visited my table so I know who you are on DA, Thanks!)

A BIG Thank you to all who visited my table :heart:

I realize that most people only like to buy fanarts, so I told myself, for the sake of those few people who were willing pay for an original work from me, an unknown artist, I HAVE to get my name out there soon. I must try even harder now.... >__< !!!

I still find it hard to believe how much people liked my work. Sometimes I thought it is too good to be true. (self doubt...am I really THAT good?) So really, thank you, thank you very very much for all the support.

Artist Alley Anime Expo 2009

Wed Jun 24, 2009, 12:06 PM
Info page UPDATED again~ ^ ^

:bulletred::bulletred: PLEASE VISIT THIS PAGE FOR PRODUCT INFORMATION UPDATES:
[link]



THANK YOU FOR LOOKING ~!



I graduated but I don't feel like I've graduated....
because I still have to work on the same projects that I've been working on throughout the semester...XD 1. animation project, 2. artworks for artist alley, 3. graphic novel submission package. After I am done with artist alley, I'll have to work hard on the animation and my graphic novel. I am so eager to finish both Rain of Flower and Record of Time, yet it seems so so so slow... (I am so impatient and it certainly helps nothing >__< )


--

I'll be at this year's AX artist alley.
I am excited since it's my first time ever!
With many many thanks to my friend :iconraptorix:

Also...if you like my friend :iconvalkyrie-sorrow: 's works, please don't miss this chance for a really rare product. She has very few leftover pencil boards from a Taiwan doujin event years ago. QUANTITY is VERY LOW.
:iconvalkyrie-sorrow: would love your support!

AX dose not allow "proxy selling", so I won't have her items on my table. Please ask me about "vivian's work". (I don't think I am proxy selling since there is only one item from her and plus it's really low quantity (not quality)... I hope I am okay... I just really want to help her out... TT__TT )


More information about my items will be posted later~
Thank you very much!!

Animation I am working on...

Another thing is...this cool Japanese animation I got to work on as an intern at Titmouse studio!
it's called BATON, and here is the official website: [link]
Japan film crew filmed live action, and it was then rotoscoped into animation with special effects and all....

I totally adore Ichihara Hayato.
He played the main role in the Japanese TV drama, ROOKIE. (adapted from manga)
Unlike ROOKIE, He looks REALLY pretty in the film BATON. (make-up magic~ XD ?)

Awesome Hades Cosplay

Thu Mar 19, 2009, 11:39 PM
okay....it's not the MYth Hades...but...I was shocked at how the cosplayer appeared rather similar. I never knew my Hades can look that similar with Saint Seiya's Hades... XD
I know about Saint Seiya, but honestly never looked into it.

Here is the awesome cosplayer I admired for few years now~
her name is SARA: [link]
[link]

Just follow the "next" links or click on "Hades"~
you'll see a bunch of really pretty cosplay photos~ ^__^
SARA usually does really good job on rendering her cosplay photo shoots. As I looked through more of the Hades cosplay, I realized the hair style is different (Saint Seiya Hades has long hair in the back, MYth Hades has short hair) but still....some of the photos look JUST LIKE MY HADES~~ XD!!!

....I can just lie to myself and imagine SARA was cosplaying my Hades... (yah, right!)

btw, anyone read/watch Saint Seiya? What is this "Lost Canvas" chapter all about? (or what is Saint Seiya all about...XD?) I am curious now.... a war between Hades and Athena?

I plan on attending artist alley at Anime Expo this year (plan, plan, plan...)
but since it'll be my first time, I don't know what to sell.
For sure I will be bringing the rest of MYth: My Seasons books, and it'll come with blank cover art postcards. I will probably be making some keychains, small quantity because it'll be done by hand.

But! the main thing is prints.
and I don't know what artworks I should create.
I have thought about making a series of artworks based on a certain group of things (such as zodiac, seasons, etc) OR a few works based on each of my original stories (ROF, ROT, MYth, and MADAM)

If I create works from my original stories, I'll probably put them all together into an artbook as well.

Anyway, all of this is still UNSURE, so I need your suggestions:
1. What kind of artworks would you buy from me as prints?
2. What artwork would you like to see made into keychains?
3. Another thing I would like to know is how much are you willing to pay for a special desk calendar? ($8~$10, $11~$15, $16~$20)

Thank you in advance for taking the time to reply.
It'll help me a lot :heart:
