The tablet is pressure sensitive and the stylus is thinner (both for precision) than those found for other tablets and are made by Wacom. It won't run Windows or mac applications, but there are some art programs that take advantage of the technology. I haven't tried one out yet, but I'm saving up for one because if a tablet can do that then as an artist, it's the best choice.<br />By the way, I love your work, you do such a good job, keep doing it -your comics make me happy.Man in Brusselshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17287063290307614810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5176594021472400446.post-90919380355006374012013-07-30T21:05:50.491+08:002013-07-30T21:05:50.491+08:00Thanks thanks!

glad to hear that You are working hard...Hey, Kray,<br /><br />glad to hear that You are working hard Your way up. You aleways did great job, and I am sure that success will accomplish You in everything :)<br /><br />I want to make suggestion about Your book, and ... may be about style in common. Sorry, I do not have any intention to offend You, or to teach You to something. Your works are perfect as graphics, but they are very static. The comparision of two/three/many cultures is kinda sleepy way, because here will be people, who will not like stright side-by-side way. Of course there are always such. :lol: And, when people are looking on side-by-side charts, they are trying to find a right side, and ... sometimes it is very uneasy.<br /><br />However, I think that You are very good in comparision, and You should keep that course stright, but ... to compile good book, You should add some dynamic, You should keep more attention to plot to link separate episodes. For example, let us think that Kopi is Eva's antagonist, and he is very sceptical about all Eva's actions, and may be little rude with her. Let us think that Eva has some air in her head, and she does not think about any consequences, and acting spontaneously without any thinking. And Teh is a golden middle, he is never acting, and never coping with other, but last word(as a last chunk) always belong to him. That will add some action to Your comixes and it will allow You to ride of static side-by-side comparision.<br /><br />For example, I do remember Your comics about trash dumping, where You compared Singapore and Japanese scheduled/nonscheduled way to throw trash away. You may add somoe action here in that way :<br /><br />1) Eva is running with trash bags and throws them <br /><br />2) Kopi makes her to bring these bags back to home, because it is wrong day to throw trash. Here he should tell Eva to abandon old barbarian habbits<br /><br />3) Eva thinks about how was it great to dump trash in Singapore, even if it is barbarian. She have some skirmish with Kopi<br /><br />4) Teh tells them that they should stop coping about it because but big fat green flies are flying at the dump place as in Tokyo as in Singapoore (and that is true, for Tokyo at least, I've never been in Singaapoore). Here could be image of fly flying around Teh's head<br /><br />So, comparision was made, and here is something to think about, and nobody will tell You that comparision was unfair.<br /><br />Sorry, it is only mine opinion, please do not consider them seriously.<br /><br />Good luck,<br />ewww ...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5176594021472400446.post-9980442999690169512013-07-07T22:55:27.758+08:002013-07-07T22:55:27.758+08:00OH!

Your current format may be limiting, for example, the topics about haze or craziness with HK at M may not work as well in a book read a few months or years from now.<br />I would recommend you tell short story, like a comic 散文. I would like to know more about why go from art/comic to MBA... living in Japan as a comic or anime fan... about be able to see Evangelion as soonest and discuss with Japanese folks... your journey in US.... are you familiar with LAT from Malaysia?<br />Within the book you can have various chapter, different topics... <br />Looking forward to your new book.

But you need to write sometime to explain the background so that readers can get it. It's more like an info/insight book into Japan.<br /><br />Or draw your life into a biography. See this <a href="http://www.parkablogs.com/content/book-review-drifting-life" rel="nofollow">A Drifting Life</a> by Yoshihiro Tatsumi. <br /><br />Or draw a travelogue. E.g. <a href="http://www.parkablogs.com/content/book-review-voyage-au-japon-tome-1-tokyo" rel="nofollow">Voyage au Japon, Tome 1: Tokyo</a>.<br /><br />Maybe you can try contacting Singapore publisher <a href="http://www.epigrambooks.sg/" rel="nofollow">Epigram books</a>. They published a few comics and sketches from local artists recently.
