We had a Prep Session on Saturday for Singapore 24 Hour Comics Day.  Bukit Merah Public Library has supported the event by providing 55 seats.  So far, only about 28 people have signed up.  There are still plenty of seats left, so we are extending the registration.  Don’t let those seats go to waste!

Please help spread the word.  It’s happening this Saturday, 20 October 2012.

If creating your own comics is an idea that turns you on, we welcome you to come and join us!

Once Upon A Dragon (web comic)

A comic I did for the Singapore Memory project revolving around the dragon playgrounds that were once a common feature in many housing estates.

I did this some months ago and it has just been uploaded. Hope it brings back memories, especially for those who grew up in the 70′s and 80′s.

Here’s the link:

Mindflyer’s iForum illustration for &Larry

Had the privilege to work with the &Larry’s team for a new year end promo at Takashimaya’s iForum. Super fun job illustrating my imaginary super fun playground. This is a variation of my earlier work- “Children’s World” but at a more crazy level! Don’t ask me what I eat, I just DRAW :D !

My folio is here: http://mindflyer.com/

The Zine Mosh by GRAPHEME zine lab

Grapheme Zine Lab is brewing at Goodman Arts Centre. Expect an experimental space where anyone can come craft a zine, learn book-making techniques, hang with our analog pets, or browse/buy an array of books and zines.

Zine by Budi Wijaya

New zine by Twisstii about stray cats

The Zine Mosh; our Lab opening, is an exhibition-cum-distribution experiment: 1 part tangible creativity, 2 parts freedom of self-expression. A heap of micro-publishing, a liberal sprinkling of the DIY ethos.
Join us as we serve up independent book/zine forms of all shapes, sizes & contents. All manners of unique, locally-created zines & artist’s books will be on exhibition & for sale. Zentai. Transient places now demolished. Haight-Ashbury free love. Polka-dotted bats.
Partaking in our vision and contributing works are an assortment of comrades, ranging from FALSE independent fashion anarchists Le Messie & Amanda S, to illustrators Twistii, Zxerokool and Sheryo, comic-book artist Troy Chin—and you, if you so wish.
Make a zine, bring it down, and you can sell it in our Lab. Or simply turn up with curiosity in your maw and leave satiated, pockets full of zines, inducted into the orders of indie-publishing.
Feat. Bani Haykal & Co. (experimental music), Polarity Press (zine distro), & Word Forward (performance poets)

Time:
Saturday at 8:00pm Sunday at 2:00am

Location:
GRAPHEME zine lab
