MORE COMIC DRAWIN'!!!
HEY ALL!! I'M HOPPIN' BACK AGAIN! NOT EXACTLY HOPPING, JUST WALKING (MAY BE..). BUT ANY WAY, I'M BACK, SO ENJOY THIS POST (WHILE IT LASTS..) HEH HEH HEH...
TODAY'S POST WILL BE ABOUT THE MANGA COMIC DRAWING COMPETITION THAT I TALKED ABOUT IN ONE OF MY PREVIOUS POST. JUST TO UPDATE YOUR SQUISHY BRAINS =D IT'S AN ART COMPETITION WHERE YOU CAN WORK IN A TEAM OR INDIVIDUALLY TO COMPLETE A COMIC BOOK THAT WOULD AT LEAST HAVE 10 PAGES.
SO JUST RECENTLY, MY FRIENDS (WHO ARE TAKING PART IN THIS COMIC DRAWING COMPETITION WITH ME AS A TEAM) AND I HAD TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL FROM TUESDAY TO THURSDAY THIS WEEK TO FINISH DRAWING THE COMIC.
HERE ARE MY TEAM MEMBERS:
JORDAN (THE TALKATIVE "DOG")
PRISHEELA (THE SMARTY-PANTS)
MING JIN (THE RESTLESS AND SLIGHTLY FEMININE EARTHLING)
AND ANOTHER FRIEND WHO JUST HAPPENED TO TAG ALONG FOR THE RIDE,
FFION (HER NAME IS SPELT WITH A DOUBLE 'F' AND SHE'S THE FUN ONE)
SO JORDAN USUALLY DRAWS THE BOXES FOR THE PICTURES THAT MAKE UP THE ENTIRE COMIC WHILE I DRAW THE COMIC IN JORDAN'S BOXES. MING JIN AND PRISHEELA ARE THE ONE'S WHO CAME UP WITH THE STORY AND.. FFION DOES THE "HAVE FUN" BITS. (YOU WILL GET TO KNOW WHAT THE HAVE FUN BITS ARE SOON!)
TUESDAY:
WOKE UP AT 8AM TO BE ABLE TO REACH SCHOOL AT 9AM. I MET PRISHEELA AND JORDAN, ALONG WITH FFION ON THE 4TH FLOOR SITTING AT THE BENCHES OUTSIDE THE COMPUTER LAB WHERE WE ALWAYS DRAW OUR COMIC. FFION SAID THAT HER "CIP" (SOME CHARITY WORK, I THINK) HAD FINISHED EARLY AND SHE HAD NOTHING TO DO FOR THE REST OF THE DAY AND WANTED TO TAG ALONG. MR TAN, OUR ART TEACHER WHO HELPS US SCAN OUR COMIC IN TO THE COMPUTER SO THAT WE CAN DARKEN THE DRAWINGS AND ADD SHADES AND COLOURS TO IT ARRIVED AFTER 5 MINUTES. WHILE WAITING FOR HIM TO ARRIVE, WE SAT AT THE BENCHES AND CHATTED.
IN THE COMPUTER LAB, MING JIN AND PRISHEELA SWITCHED ON THE COMPUTERS SO THAT MR TAN CAN TEACH THEM (AND JORDAN, WHO WAS CURIOUS) HOW TO DARKEN THE LINES OF THE 6 PAGES THAT WE'VE FINISHED SO FAR. MING JIN WONDERED OFF HALF WAY COS HE GOT RESTLESS AND LISTEN TO SOME MUSIC (YOUTUBE) ON ANOTHER COMPUTER.
WHILE PRISHEELA USED THE COMPUTER TO DARKEN OUR (ACTUALLY MY DRAWINGS COS I DREW THE ENTIRE COMIC), JORDAN DID THE SAME THING AS HER BUT DREW THE BOXES FOR ME TO DRAW THE COMIC IN THEM ONCE IN A WHILE. IT LOOKED RATHER DIFFICULT TO DARK THE COMIC ON THE COMPUTER BECAUSE WELL.. IF YOUR COMPUTER HAS 'ADOBE PHOTSHOP' OR YOU HAVE DRAWN COMICS THAT WOULD BE PUBLISHED SOON OR PUBLISHED ALREADY, THEN YOU WILL KNOW HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO DARKEN THE LINES. (IT WOULD TAKE UP THIS WHOLE POST IF I WERE TO DESCRIBE THE WHOLE PROCESS.) WHILE MY FRIENDS DID ALL THAT, I WAS BUSY DRAWING PAGE 7 OF THE COMIC. FFION PLAYED COMPUTER GAMES WHILE CHATTING WITH US. THAT WAS WHAT WE DID TILL 12 NOON.
WE DECIDED TO HAVE LUNCH AT 12NOON SO JORDAN INFORMED MR TAN WHO WAS STILL SITTING AT A COMPUTER NEAR THE WHITEBOARD. MR TAN, VERY GENEROUSLY, GAVE JORDAN $50 TO SPEND ON OUR LUNCH. WE WERE ALL RATHER SHOCKED AND TOLD HIM THAT WE HAD OUR OWN MONEY. BUT HE STILL ASKED US TO TAKE THE MONEY AND RETURN HIM THE CHANGE WHEN WE FINISH OUR LUNCH. OUTSIDE THE COMPUTER LAB, WE DISCUSSED WHERE TO EAT. I REALLY WANTED WESTERN FOOD (LIKE ALWAYS) BUT JORDAN DIDN'T COS HE WANTED TO EAT AT A NEARBY HAWKER CENTRE. FFION AND THE REST SAID THAT ANY ONE OF THOSE PLACES WERE FINE WITH THEM. BUT AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION, WE WENT TO THE HAWKER CENTRE.
ON THE WAY THERE, WE (JUST OF FUN) BLAMED MING JIN FOR ASKING THE ART TEACHER TO TREAT US COS THAT COULD BE THE REASON WHY MR TAN GAVE JORDAN A $50 DOLLAR NOTE TO SPEND. WE HAD TO CROSS A FEW ROADS AND WALK THROUGH ONE OR TWO CARPARKS AND HAWKER CENTRES TO REACH THE HAWKER CENTRE JORDAN AND THE REST TALKED ABOUT. I JUST FOLLOWED COS I DO NOT LIVE IN THAT AREA NEAR OUR SCHOOL LIKE THE REST OF THEM. WHEN WE ARRIVED, HOWEVER, MR TAN WAS ALREADY THERE EATING! SO WE DECIDED TO WALK TO THE SECOND NEAREST HAWKER CENTRE THAT (JORDAN SAID) SOLD DELICIOUS FOOD.
AT THE HAWKER CENTRE, WE DECIDED NOT TO SPEND MR TAN'S HARD EARNED MONEY AND USED OUR OWN MONEY TO BUY "MAYO CHICKEN RICE" (A DISH THAT HAS MAYONAISE ON THE CHICKEN ON THE RICE). WE ALL ENDED UP EATING THE SAME FOOD. THEN, MING JIN SUGGESTED THAT WE SHARED A BOWL OF "ICE-CARCHANG" (I'M NOT SURE HOW TO SPELL IT AS IT IS NOT AN ENGLISH WORD BUT IT'S A BOWL OF COLOURFUL ICE OVER JELLY, CORN AND RED BEANS). WE SHARED MONEY TO BUY IT AND I ATE THE MOST COS PRESHEELA ONLY ATE JELLY AND FFION ONLY ATE CORN. AFTER THAT WE TOOK A SLOW WALK BACK TO SCHOOL AND TO THE COMPUTER LAB.
THE REST OF THE DAY AFTER 2PM (WE ARRIVED BACK AFTER 2 HOURS) WAS QUITE FINE. NEITHER BORING NOR INTERESTING COS I FINISHED PAGE 7 AND 8 WHILE JORDAN AND PRISHEELA BOTH FINISHED DARKENING ONE PAGE OF THE COMIC EACH. JORDAN HAD TO GO HOME AT 5PM SO HE LEFT FIRST TO MEET HIS MUM IN THE SCHOOL FOYER. THEN, A FEW MINUTES LATER, PRISHEELA, MING JIN, FFION AND I LEFT TOO.
WE DECIDED TO HAVE BUBBLE TEA FROM A NEARBY SHOP AND SAT DOWN AT A FEW BENCHES NEAR THE BUS STOP OPPOSITE OUR SCHOOL TO DRINK OUR BUBBLE TEA AND CHAT. I DIDN'T BUY ANY COS I STILL HAD SOME WATER IN MY WATER BOTTLE TO DRINK. WE CHATTED FOR ABOUT HALF AN HOUR WHEN WE SAW THIS OLD MAN THROWING ORANGE SKIN FROM THE EIGHTH FLOOR OF A BLOCK OF FLATS. PRISHEELA, FFION AND I VIDEOTAPED THE MAN THROWING THE ORANGE SKIN AND DECIDED TO REPORT IT TO THE POLICE THE NEXT DAY COS WE STILL HAD TO GO TO SCHOOL TO FINISH THE COMIC AGAIN.
THEN, WE WALKED TO THE BUS STOP AND TOOK DIFFERENT BUSES HOME.
I'LL POST ABOUT WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY LATER.
