I also cannot see the pics leh :director:

[rookiyong]

I think there is some problem at angelfire, I can see it now. Nice work! I like the b/w :thumbsup:

[LoneWolf]

I can see only 1 pics on top, wah think standards quite high in spore propects. If you can draw it in 5mins such 1 pics, then got chance to publish book.

I ever talk to to the Hai Yang ppl, they say doing comics not only art but speed also very important :thumbsup:

[rookiyong]

[ot] So good you got a chance to visit their company :mrgreen:

[Hades]

I want more pics :support:

[Fire]

thanks guys :salute: arigatogozaimasu!! :D
i os don know wat happen to angelfire...anyone got any good site to jie sao?? so that next time i can post it ther and wont hv the same prob...:sweat:

no lah...my standard still belong to the beginer group...if u see those "hidden" pro...then u will notice mine is nothing... :red:
i'll try to post more...

boss: can we open a gallery for posting our works?? :support:

[rookiyong]

If all the 'hidden' pros can work together, there may be hope for SG :director:

Currently still don't have a system for posting of works, but I can still open up a gallery for works no problem, you can just email me the drawings and any descriptions you want to include.

[ot] I have plans to change the system of how this site runs, but won't be so soon bcos need $$ and at least more members to make it worth :cry: , but lets look forward to it.

[LoneWolf]

How much $$$ are we talking about? Maybe can do a charity sales at my stall to raise some. Bring your old unwanted stuff(MUST BE SELLABLE ONES) to sell at my stall and donate the $$ to this site, just a suggestion. Can start May timeframe, currently i don't have stall yet till april as busy with projects ;)

Your arts IMO frankly is 大师级 liao if you can maintain this standands throughout the whole series of comics you release :salute:

[Fire]

wah thanks man :excited:
nest time if i release comic, u must support neh :sweat:

btw, we're sort of planning a local comic book actually...
if really succesfully publish, for sure let let all of u guys know bout it! :director:

[Hades]

My fully support on u, the expression which u draws are pretty well done

U able to draws some posture rather than drawing a fig just standing straight there? The alignment of the hands, arms, legs r the main points.

If u can handle them well, definitely u can reports to manga industry liao :thumbsup:

[LoneWolf]

I will sure support, 100% :rock:

[rookiyong]

I will also support, but must be continuous, not publish 1 issue than go missing :laugh:

[LoneWolf]

Or if too tough as a start, maybe sld consider 1 issue complete kind. If the storyline is good, its can also sell.

No matter what, i will still buy and even help you sell haha ;)

[Fire]

thank you all...so gan dong :excited:
oh...the book most probably will be those 1 issue finish one...now still don hv a complete team to do monthly publication...even though i'm at a printing company..yet not enough man power to do it....

and of course...no $$$ to do oso lah...hahah :D

[LoneWolf]

How much is enough? Like need to print min how many copies? Need to go through MTA etc? :sweat:

[Fire]

yes must go tru MTA for the MITA no.
normally printing min qty is 1000. if lower than that, the unit price will be very x. not worth printing lower qty.
u interested to print urs?? i can print for u, giv u special price :support:

[Hades]

Haha, we dun have the potentials for drawings. Even though prints out liao, only me myself will get it nia...

What will going to happen for the rest of the 999 comics :cry:

I where got comics to print, i dun even know how to draw. I was thinking maybe can gather resources like ppl interested to invest in printing your comics, then share the profit. If no profit, maybe the investor lugi, if got profit then he gain. To u guys, safer and a opprotunity to show your works :salute:

[rookiyong]

Actually ever thought of selling local comics overseas? Celestial Zone was sold overseas I think, but locals should work together and get big players like JD to buy the copyrights.

If you do a good job, I think it will impress the ppl there :thumbsup:

[Hades]

That's why we need people like lezhun who got the passion and knowledges to gather all potential comrade to works together.

But looks like it is hard to find somebody else in local here who shared the same thoughts :(

[Fire]

jusgod: wah!! u got lobang can get investors?? :support: :support: i more than happy to work with them....

rooki: u r rite. i think ther are some other artist do the same thing. they rarely sell their comic in local...maybe they think the market too small....to get ppl like JD to buy copyright...eerrrr...i think hv to wait long long oh.. :shock: :shock: coz my standard not ther yet....

haha i don't have real venture capitalist lah, just that maybe we can work it out through talking to relevant ppl. Maybe i will be one of the investor though i can't come out with much $$. Maybe can raise a few Ks through all channels we can think of, try la.


In fact, roughly how much is required ? 5k including everything?

actually the price (cost) dependin on a lot of factors: size of book, thickness (no of pages), colours, types of papers...bla bla bla...but based on my experience...5k...like not enough leh... :cold:
actually, some guys in sgcomic forum workin on a horror story comic...still in process of planning and production....i think this comic will make it ( as in come out in the market) coz some of the "insider" are local comic artist & freelance illutrator...so i just tap on them first for the first time...see wat we can come out loh....
pray for us man... :sweat: i fu wish to see the comics in the book store in the future...hope the poduction team can "dong" until the project finish... :fail:

btw, tahnks for so supportive..will let them know this good news...maybe can feature u in the book as our sponsors..haha...oh ya...anyone got any ghost story to share with me?? can pm me lah...i lookin fo rsome inspirations for my comic leh...

[Hades]

U also going to start a horror comics??

[Fire]

U also going to start a horror comics??

i joinin their project...try to get more connection to those pro first :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

[Hades]

oic, good luck to u. Perhaps u can watch "The eye 10" which is a HK ghost film done by Pang brothers. Their ghost films done by them is good :thumbsup:

The movie will shown up on 24 Mar if I'm not wrong :D Get some inspirations form the show ;)

[LoneWolf]

Your interview success bo? if not, maybe can learn to draw as well :salute:

[Hades]

Just send the applicantion form to them this afternoon. Now got to wait for their reply lor. Perhaps takes 1-2 weeks, not sure though:(

How to learn and draws when u dun even have the exp or somebody to teach me. No $$ for lessons too :( Tan buay chiat leh

[rookiyong]

Aiyo, got to have that flare also, I think most ppl like lezhun learn to draw themselves :mrgreen:

Btw, I dun watch too many horror movies or comics, but I will prefer the kind of story where there are totally no ghost, no demon or scary persons to really "scare" the viewers. It really demostrates his skill, to build that kind of suspense emotion and get the chilly feeling across.

[Hades]

I likes fighting scenes, not those wu xia battle scenes.

I likes those hooligan fights especially from 鐵拳對鋼拳. Or perhaps those power skills like 幽游白書, saint seiya etc..

[LoneWolf]

Ghost, suspense related storyline is prefered if u intend to end the comics in 1-2 issues. KungFu type will need to be long, thats industry acceptance in my opinion. :|

[Hades]

Perhaps hilarious titles with a few vol end also not bad
