GOOD NEWS part 2

'NAGASATRIA PREVIEW' contains comic previews and a few concept art.

Good news for my online comic 'DARKSHADOW', I have been chosen as one of ten winner from 20 finalist in MDEC Intellectual Property Creator Challenge Series - digital interactive comic pitch to grab RM20,000 to produce a series of comic. So on 30 july 2009 was the pitching day, and I brought my 'DARKSHADOW' sequel entitled 'NAGASATRIA' for that day. They are (20 finalist) all the best, and I was lucky, my presentation has been chosen as one of the 10 winner. This is my first time entering an art competition. But I don't see this as a competition but a pitch. So, the grant will be use to publish my full color limited edition comic. So, I have to finish 'NAGASATRIA' in 6 month but for those of you who cannot wait, just read my 'NAGASATRIA' prequel, 'DARKSHADOW' online for free. The book will be on sale online and never sold anywhere except at a special booth at any local comic convention. I produced 10 preview books for the pitching day, 4 for the juries and the rest were sold for 10 ringgit (Just sold out right after my pitch session). So, no more in my hand.

Berita baik untuk brader punya comic online 'DARKSHADOW', brader telah terpilih salah sorang dari 10 pemenang grant dari 20 finalist yang menyertai MDEC Intellectual Property Creator Challenge Series - digital interactive comic pitch untuk mendapatkan grant sebanyak  RM20,000. Masa pitching day tu brader bawak sequel 'DARKSHADOW' iaitu 'NAGASATRIA' sebagai bahan presentation, dan Alhamdulillah, brader terpilih sebagai salah sorang pemenang. Ni la pertama kali brader masuk pertandingan, tapi brader tak anggap ni sebagai pertandingan sebab ianya adalah pitching day. Brader dan lukis komik hampir 20 tahun tapi takde buku sebagai portfolio, ni la peluang brader untuk menghasilkan sebuah buku. Jadi duit grant ni brader akan gunakan untuk terbitkan buku komik secara edesi terhad penuh warna dan brader terpaksa menyiapkannya dalam jangka masa 6 bulan ni. Jadi sesapa yang tak sabar tu boleh la mengikuti komik online brader dulu ye. Cerita tu memang ada kaitan, versi buku akan dijual secara online saja dan juga kat meja jualan kat memana comic convention tempatan. Masa pitching day tu brader dah sediakan 10 bijik buku preview 'NAGASATRIA' untuk presentation. 4 untuk juri, selebihnya terjual sehabis saja sesi pitching brader. Semuanya dia beli RM10 satu buku oleh pemerhati dari industri creative luar sana. Jadik takde satu pun yang tinggal kat brader.
