【 Top 12 Highlights of my 2012 】
2012 has been a great year for me! It gave way to opportunities in showcasing my ability, recognition of my creations and showed me the best path for a great foundation of my future art career. It was not a perfect year but I can consider everything that happened to me last year as luck as they were beyond my expectations. 2012 made me really productive as a creator. With that, let's walk down to my memory lane~!

12. D.Ice's debut under Oh-No! Manga  April 15, 2012


◆ D.Ice debut! ◆



◆ D.Ice is available in Comic Odyssey! ◆

D.Ice being released in Philippines has been a dream come true! For the past ten years, I've wanted to see my work being printed and being distributed in conventions, events and selected comic stores. When my dream happened, my next goal is to release a full colored work someday. Special thanks to Oh-No! Manga for making this happen.  


11. Ilo-Ilo Comiccon Experience! December 2, 2012


◆ Interview with Sneeze Magazine◆

The whole experience of going back to my parents' hometown made me feel great! The awesome comic event in IloIlo was truly overwhelming!

10. Debut in Comic Odyssey and Comicxhub. November 15, 2012


◆ My creations in Comic Odyssey! ◆

Luzviminda, Escape and Maha Magical Manananggal are my titles available in Comic Odyssey!
Another dream come true! Selling my works in a comic store is indeed a highlight! Three of my titles are now available. Also, these titles are available in Comicxhub too!

9. To be able to participate in Indieket and winning the 3rd Best Cover and Best Online Promotions! July 14, 2012


◆ Indieket 3rd Best Comic Cover~! W00t! ◆


◆ Maha Magical Manananggal Promotional Video! ◆

It was luck that I got into this amazing event! Maha Magical Manananggal (Philippine release) debuted in the event along with a short animation promotional video I collaborated with Nica Rojo. The video won the Best Online Promotions and Maha Magical Manananggal won the 3rd best cover! I could never ask for more then! The event was more intimate as I get to interact more with a lot of people! I also met people from InkJinks and Guhit Bayanihan! It was also a luck when I got picked in the raffle draw for a reserved slot for Komikon 2012~!

8. Oh-No! Manga Cosplay Camp experience and releasing D.Ice Tux shirt. July 29, 2012


◆ Signing D.Ice books! ◆



◆ I designed and executed the silkcreen painting on shirt! *proud* ◆

I can describe the event in one word as "sparkly"! Well, everything in the event are inspiring! This was the first event where I was so involved with the activities. From boothselling, organizing registrations, siging books, selling art commission and even cosplaying too! Haha! Very memorable! This even also debuted my D.Ice Tux shirt!

7. 2nd Prize for a Quickdraw Art Competition in Best of Anime. September 15, 2012


◆ 2nd Prize! Unexpected! ◆

Another unexpected event! My first goal was to watch Uchuu Sentai Noiz for this event but I eventually saw the Art Competition Mechanics in which got me interested to join as well. The competition has online preliminary online voting system and I got the 7th place out of  60+ competitors (This was again, unexpected). The  top 10 artists must compete in front of the crowd of Best of Anime for the second round. Only 5 will be selected. Luckily, I got it to top 5. Then the top 5 artists will then compete for the final round. I think it was epic since I am not hoping to win at all. When I was about to go home, I recieved a text message from the organizers of the event that I need to wait for the announcement of winners as I was picked as one of the top 3 artists. I then got the 2nd Prize! Totally OSSUM! Very memorable! Isn't it terrible that I relied so much to my luck? LOL!

6. Luzviminda got featured in GMA News TV. Being able to see Luzviminda in cosplay form. May 7, 2012


◆ Stolen shot during shoot breaks! ◆



◆ Ira Orduna cosplayed my original character, Luzviminda. ◆

This was the first time my original character got feature in television in a form of cosplay. Seeing my character, Luzviminda, run and beat random hoodlums made me teary-eyed. lol. I co-directed some scenes of Luzviminda. It was amazing! The next day, I got sick. LOL! But everything was worth it!

5. Being able to hear Maha's voice through the uber talented voice actress, Nica Rojo. July 14, 2012


◆ Thanks a lot Nicaaaaa! <3 ◆

How can I ever forget Nica Rojo? She is a muse! She lent her voice for my magical girl manananggal character, Maha! It was pretty surprising how she did this and it inspired me to work on the animation. I finished the animation for 2 days because I was really inspired to hear my character talking! Nica also voiced another character of mine! I will let you know soon! It's a secret as of the moment! Haha!

4. Visiting Otsuka Sensei!


◆ Otsuka-Sensei, arigatou gozaimasu! ◆

Otsuka-sensei has been my mentor for the past 2 years! He has been guiding me for my earlier projects. I was able to talk to him again and his wisdom never fails to excite and inspire me!

3. Releasing four new titles within the year. D.Ice, Maha, Luzviminda, and Tigray.
Releasing four titles in a span of one year makes all the hardwork worth it!


2. Winning the grand prize in an art competition on the day of my birthday. March 24, 2012.


◆ 1st Place! Geeee! ◆



◆ My entry and my certificate of appreciation ◆

This was truly a magical moment. Winning the first prize in an art competition on the day of your birthday is a first time for me! It rarely happens to anyone so I really treasure this moment!

1. Celebrating my tenth year in comic creation!


◆ I will never stop creating my visions in concrete form! ◆

I think this has been my biggest achievement being an artist. 10 years ago, I was a newbie comic artist with high hopes. Now, few of my dreams are now being realized. I wish to continue further and become someone who can inspire others.


Actually, there loads more in the list! However, I cannot just simple write them all as it might take me forever. LOL! I will continue to count all the blessings. There are loads of good things happening to me already this 2013!  I will continue to do this TOP HIGHLIGHTS OF MY YEAR  from now on.

I am looking forward for 2013!
