Happy Father’s Day Ayah

it’s been awhile..time to wake up and smells a cup of nescafe(kata maya karin,ada anti-oksida.great!)..

saturday evening at pekan rabu, alor star.

“son, i didn’t asked for you to have a great job, let alone your money. I never asked you to be someone great, let alone to live under your fame. I never asked you to take me to the town, let alone moving with you there. I’m just asking you to be a great son, to be someone to your mom, someone to your brothers and sisters. I just asking for your prayer, before and after i left this world. I’m just asking you to be my son,.. forever”

An old man lost in his own world while finishing his last ‘bubu’ of the day at a small village near Kemasik, Terengganu. He’s been doing the job for more than 10 years to support his beloved family.

its saturday. got sth to do but end up playing with my wacom. its been almost one year the wacom being a photo frame instead of tablet. huhu.

nothing but chonteng

After saw an advertise on this magazine, i cant help myself from keep on searching that magazine around, to be exact at kuantan. yes,its quite rare plus being in east coast everything is very hard to find. currently we got nearest Popular Bookstore at Kemasik, Terengganu. but the store is really dissapointed which is very rare of art/photography/comics type books. not to be racist, i found its too much books in chinese, while population of people reading chinese is lower than 20% around here. for me its a waste, while u’re having a low no of chinese customers, u put lot of chinese books. some the racks should be utililsed for more universal books ie. art/photography/comics which i believed have a lot more followers here. once again, i’m not racist. sorry my fellow chinese friends. nothing to do with skin color.

finally i found this mag at MyNews at Suria KLCC. hoaahh, finally!

its POPCORN! with ‘on the cutting-edge of comics art’ tag. The contents is more on comics art with one-short comics and pin-up from various top comic artist in asia especially from Malaysia.

Interview with Tan Eng Huat (kutu)

There are 9 pages of interview with Kutu, an international artist from malaysia with thumbnails and pin-up from him. its great interview. very amaze with him, have a chance to draw world famous characters like batman, silver surfer and ghost rider. superb!

by Kutu

lots of pin ups by malaysian famous like kromosom, kidchan, adijin, baba chuah, virus-AC74(now i knew he is a she), kaoru and lot more. and of course great pin-ups from asian artist (singapore, hongkong, taiwan etc).

And there’s comic by puppeteer! i love his painting very much. since reading ‘Forgotten by Puppeteer‘ graphic novel, i fall in love with his story telling style. great one. there another couple of comics by puyuh and redcode.

'silent revolution chains' by puppeteer

another best part is interview with China’s Benjamin Chan. with lots of pin-ups from him. worth to read interview. i think everybody would fall in love with his painting.

interview with benjamin

Sadly, i heard that this mag published on quarterly basis(4 times/year). have to wait another 3months for 2nd issue? sigh..hopefully its not true. btw, go and get one. its worth to buy stuff.

btw, i hope next issues, there will be arts from muhamadyazid, chee, rosh, zoOl, milx, adijin(more), benQwek, sandora khoo, popiaman, aimo, syarul and lots lots more.

Terima kasih Nurulhazwani Binti Abdul Rahim.

Get to know you is the only best decision I ever made. Alhamdulillah, great thanks Allah..

It was a quiet friday morning at Kemaman, Terengganu. Friday is a weekend for Terengganu and lots of premises close on Friday except some chinese shops. Towards the afternoon, a group of town cleaners have a break. A pretty tired job but its never put away their smiles.
