First 4 pages for PANATA Book

Here are the 1st 4 pages of SINAG. My first 4 official comic layouts.

Last time I remember doing comics was 18 years ago, I think.I'm 30 now so I was about 12 then...highschool years. I wish I could have kept all my comic work way back , but I will post samples from the ones I still have...soon. I remember making a business out of it, having my comics for rent to my classmates. I remember having competition that time. Philip Nazer Espaldon and Jae Rodney Fernandez. Siguro we started our own indie movement that time sa classroom. Philip's style was like clean and crisp, while Rodney's work was sketchy and a bit dirty looking. Mine, well you'll see when I post them here...hehehe. I remember using recycled test papers/newsprint paper and fax paper my dad and aunt gave me to draw on. Guess they we're very supportive that time. I don't know bout the other 2 guys but I was casting some of my best buds in my comic books, even my brother has his own character, Super Echat. Yes, I remember vividly...hahahaha. Well, I'll tell you more story when I post my old works.

Back to SINAG. In this so called comics comeback of mine I tried doing really detailed work on the drawings. Thank You internet for the reference images and my UNi point-one pen...gamit na gamit sya. I used regular sized typewriting paper instead of the regular 11x17 inches professionals usually use. Reason is I don't have a flat bed scanner that big to fit in A3 paper. Second is I can't bring 11x17 drawings at work and do the comics in secret...hahaha. I drew the panels by quick scribbled pencil sketches and directly inking them in the process with my trusty pens. Wollah!!! I'm still adjusting on time management though. This week I just managed to squeeze in 4 inked pages, a pretty slow pace I might add. I have lots of commissioned work and my time is literally divided into different companies I work for including my regular day job. I just hope my current employer doesn't read this...hahaha. I will post some commissioned artworks soon just to give you some idea of what keeps me up until 3AM.

Currently, I'm on the process of doing the next page...pretty exciting and action packed. You might get to see SINAG in action for the first time. Syempre, I'll post it here again soon. Wait, I have lots to post na...soon...oh no. This blog even takes away some precious time...hahaha.
