I am working on my new book!捲貓製作新刊中!!

July 23rd, 2010


Hello Hello! Sorry for not uploading anything for a while.
I am back in Taiwan and had been working on my new book for a month and half now.
The Chinese version will be out in Aug for the comic con here.
And will be available in English for BICS and MCM in Oct in UK.

This is a little book about two sheep and their adventure, involving a lot of strange religions!
Please looking forward to it, I know I do!

喔啦~捲筒已經快兩個月沒更新啦~~~
不過是因為這一個半月都在台南萬歲宮製作新刊
會在八月七號八號的CWT首賣(台大體育館)
是歡樂的羊群宗教本
兩隻可愛的羊一路冒險遇上奇怪宗教的故事~
還在努力製作中
請大家一起來轉紡輪!!!!
(後續會有更多介紹可以看呼呼呼)

在那之前~本週末7/24.25的FF捲貓也會在~~
吾友Viva製作了極其變態的水滸傳新刊…
請大家來玩

MCM Expo pics!

May 31st, 2010


Hello! Back from MCM Expo again!
Let’s see some pictures first!
呼呼呼前兩天又去了MCM Expo,其實捲貓很害羞怕生自閉
但是說來也參加這個活動第四次了,將近一年半的時間
現在有更多比較熟的朋友了真開心~
阿先貼一些圖~上面是週五去場佈時拍的,後面那顆頭是阿湯~

Quene in the morning! Not for the burgers.
早上的入場隊伍~不是在排漢堡…

My table and my friend Liona ^^
呵呵呵捲貓這次有看板娘啦~~~~
Liona 以前在台灣也是同人誌圈的,來英國之後很熱血的也想來動漫場看看^^
所以這次桌上有我的漫畫+米奇鰻老闆的貼紙+Liona的驅魔少年同人本~XD

My table from the front~^^
正面來一張~這時候沒人

View from my table. Not many people in the beginning.^^
從桌子後看出去~還是沒人 XD
不過我的桌子位置好讚~前面是條超級大路
頓時有大手的Feel~~XD

The small press section ^O^
轉過頭來拍一張後面的桌子
後面桌子之間的通道就比較擠了~喔啦

Getting busy!
接近中午到下午的時間人就很多~~~~

My friend Mickeyman’s stickers are quite popular.
米老大的貼紙英國人也愛~~呼呼有大賣 ^O^

These are some of the stuckers :P I like the abnormal animals very much.
米大的貼紙其中一部份近拍~有些不正經的動物真可愛

Busy time! Tom is busy signing.
忙的時候很忙! 阿湯在簽名~~~

Claude is busy doing a duddle!
克勞德大人在幫讀者畫繪簽~

Howard is busy talking to readers!
豪爾先生在跟讀者聊天~

Quite a few happy cosplayers around!
I was behind my table almost all the time…but!
My friend Mo-a took beautiful pics of cosplayers, you should go have a took!
場內Cosplay的應該比沒有的還多^^
我基本上都卡在攤位內,不過
朋友Moa很專業的拍了很多照片,請大家去看看^^
(我的感想是…說到cosplay,西方人要做出爆乳效果真是一般來說容易得多XD)

Look, it’s Spock.
偷Mo-a的圖~是史巴克耶~(滾動)~~XD

The drawing tables section!
場內的畫畫區~~

In the fox bar after the show. Tired! but still reading comics!
結束後去酒吧來一杯~~打呵欠的打呵欠,看書的看書XD

And we all drew on Claude’s drawing board at the end.
然後幾個人在克勞德大人的繪圖墊板上畫畫
就這樣結束了愉快的兩天
可喜可賀~可喜可賀~啾咪

明天去 Bristol SPX

先去睡~~~

The UniCon 獨角獸(誤)漫畫展XD

May 5th, 2010


I was in the UniCon 24th of April!
It’s part of the event of UniComics Festival held in the University of Hertfordshire. It’s at the north of London.

I went there by train and didn’t got eaten by tigers.
It’s a nice warm Spring Saturday.

The venue for the con is on a long hall way with a lot of national flags.
I shared the table with Paul Fryer.
It’s a lovely event with all kinds of programs and friendly comic fellows :P
I spent time chatting with Paul and Claude and eating nice breakfast fry up and drinking pear beer in the Uni pub. XD!

Then I went to the train with Claude and Jenika, and didn’t got eaten by tigers, which is very nice!

Oh oh for the comics!
Please go check out these fine people’s work!

UniComics

Paul Fryer, he likes beer
Crazy Claude!
Jenika and her vampires!!
Sarah Mclntyre and her lovely Children’s illustration
Mr. Merlin Goodbury!(love his webcomic)

[Friendly Link] Tom and his cowboy, they didn’t make it this time

上上週六去了新的漫畫展 UniComics Festival
顧名思義就是在 Uni 大學裡舉辦的 Comics Festival 漫畫活動
不過雖然在大學裡辦,講座和販售會的內容並不會和一般的差多少
只能說「漫畫與教育的關係探討」這部份有比較多一點
活動包括探討英國漫畫出版的走向
個別漫畫家講座等等

然後在這個四天的活動之中
星期六的 UniCon 是獨立漫畫來展出和販賣
這次我和保羅先生分享桌子

保羅先生在動畫公司上班,作flash
空閑之餘就埋頭畫漫畫,是個友善的好人
阿湯這次忙著畫漫畫忘了回信~所以他沒桌子花哈哈哈(好壞)

英國的獨立漫畫界(不透過出版社自己出版)
其實很不大
目前問過的人之中沒有任何一個可以靠單賣漫畫維生的
大家都有另外的工作,不然就還是學生

直接拿數字出來看
如果一天可以賣總數超過五十本就已經是非常好了

會這樣大概有一部分是這邊二次創作是違法的
所以雖然或許應該也有人想要做二次創作類的漫畫
但是環境上不被允許

而很實際的
二次創作或許是帶來人潮很有力的一種方式
作為全原創的這個社群
花在推廣作品培養自己的讀者群上
會更費心力
雖然如此,我這兩年看下來,這個社群是在向上成長的
所以我仍然非常期待^^

另外,這邊的有趣之處是互相哈拉喝酒(我都喝汽水XD),
聽到很多有趣的事
和人的交流比會場賣書還更有趣些

此外可以一起做些奇妙的合作
目前我和阿湯有計畫要合出漫畫
(偷偷說,會有熊和鳥和青蛙和貓的腳色)
也有英國人後來跟日本人合作的實例
英國和歐洲其他地方以及米國加拿大也慢慢有接觸
所以因此去其他國家參展也是很常有的事
像去年我和阿湯硬要自己跑去瑞典和義大利就是這樣的:P

所以就生活體驗來說,我覺得是我人生中很美好的一段
不過就銷售來說我覺得是賣書來換旅費和快樂比較多些 XD

ㄟ…扯遠了
說到UniCon,那天保羅先生很嗨地說
「因為聽起來像是 UniCorn 獨角獸所以很興奮!!」
其實我也是~~~XD不知道在嗨什麼

販售會本身不太
不過這次結束之後的喝酒時間頂快樂的
喝了超甜的水梨啤酒
後來和怕被老虎吃掉的克勞德先生和喜歡吸血鬼的義大利小姐一起坐火車回家
可喜可賀~

網址們~~~

UniComics 動漫展

保羅先生的冒險故事
熱血又瘋狂但是怕被老虎吃掉的克勞德先生
吸血鬼小姐真妮卡的場子
走漫畫混插畫路線的沙拉小姐
很酷的梅林先生(他的網路漫畫很讚!)

Tpcat in market in May! 時間限定之捲貓在市集

May 3rd, 2010

Hello!!!
Tpcat is back to the market for a month!
I am sharing a bit table with my new friend Kooi in Sunday Up market.
All the T-shirt you see in the picture is handmade by Kooi!
Please come to visit me , yeah!
There’s tpcat new T-shirt, hey~

Oh it’s nice to be back in the market.
It’s the place you see people come and go.
With 3 for 1 pound cucmber, 60p Cheese cake, free music, food,
and new talents appearing and vanishing.

Kooi’s website!!
最近機緣巧合
在 Sunday Up Market 跟新朋友阿貴借了個小角落寄賣
五月份這幾週週日中午過後捲貓都會在那邊

阿貴是馬來西亞華人,是個可愛的男生
照片裡的衣服都是他手工作的喔

回到市集生活還是蠻有趣的
每週買三條一磅的小黃瓜和60P的起士蛋糕
看街頭表演和朋友聊天很開心

但是不得不說
在市集
堅持理想需要很多勇氣
獨立創作者人生很刺激 ^_^

Sunday Up 新開發的攤位區一天攤位費 60 磅
如果一天營業額不到 100 以上等於作白工
有生活壓力的人很難持續下去
也就難怪越來越多的人是專業批貨人來市場賣的

對很多人來說
市集都是一個過渡時期和嘗試的過程
前仆後繼,常去逛逛
就一直可以在一堆無趣的東西中發現有趣的新攤

這就是市集

呼呼~歡迎大家這個月周日來找我玩^^

阿貴的網站~嘿嘿

UniComics Festival! T-shirt 鼠的叮嚀

April 23rd, 2010

Hello!

I’ve been swimming on the internet and in the real life and in my dreams for two weeks, and that is the reason I didn’t update my blog.

But the mice in the T-shirt bite me in the midnight. They told me about the UniComics Festival on 24th of April and they think it is now a good time to walk along the river, it’s not related to the comic con, they added.

So, I will be in the new and wonderful event in the name of UniComics Festival tomorrow. Thanks to my kind comic fellow Paul Fryer(he has got new comic for this event,go check out!) offered to share his table with me, I will be on the train, to the University of Hertfordshire, and sell comics! Also I will be in the panel “Why Comics” to tell you about my life with comics and manga.

And for the T-shirt mouse, they say they are making a size chart, so that you guys can get the T-shirt in human size. That will come soon, before all the petals on the cherry trees falling away.

各位同學大家好

捲貓過去兩週以來在網路上,在現實生活中,在夢中,浮游。
所以部落格都沒有更新。
但是穿T-shirt的老鼠來咬我了。
這邊的老鼠是說中文的,上面英文版的老鼠是說英文的。
所以說我被咬了兩次。

不過中文老鼠要傳達的訊息不一樣。
牠說明後天在台大體育館的PF,捲貓在D01.02的羅馬帝國下水道中漂浮
這次會有 T-shirt 出現這樣。

中文老鼠順便幫英文老鼠傳話
英文老鼠說捲貓本貓明天會去 UniComic Festival
是一個由大學主辦的動漫展,應該會很有趣。

另外老鼠們說他們會鞭打捲貓叫她趕快吐出T-shirt的尺寸表來做網路拍賣…
於是今夜夜空之中又傳來了哀嚎聲…如此如此

捲貓拜上

Cat web comic coming soon!貓漫畫即將豋場

April 5th, 2010

There are three cats here.
I like cats.
I mean, when they don’t poo in the human toilet or piss on my lap when I am sleeping.

Still, I think my life is actually better when there are cats around. So that is the reason there will be …

A Web Comic about cats coming soon!!!

The main characters are the three cats above.

I am at the storyboard stage now and hopefully they will say “Meow” to you guys soon enough! (Hopefully in May!)

這裡有三隻貓。
我喜歡貓。
除了他們在廁所大便和在我睡覺時尿在我大腿上的時候之外。

我覺得我的人生有貓陪伴的時候,是很幸福的…
所以呢~

捲貓即將推出線上貓漫畫啦!!

主要角色就是這三隻貓。

目前在腳本階段,希望累積到一個程度再上線
希望是在五月的時候開始~啡啡^^

(不過七月還是會出新刊滴,據萬歲截稿營消息,即將在六月前裝上抗暑裝備冷氣機乙台,這麼感心,怎麼可以不涕淚縱橫到拿襪子來擦眼淚呢?~~~~)

如此如此~敬請期待^^

Easter bunny and Jesus! 復活節快樂!

April 2nd, 2010

Hello again!
The Easter holiday is here!
Wish everyone a lovely holiday and a fertile spring!

The drawing is an old one, but everyone loves it,

這個週末在英國又是復活節假期啦!
從週五放到週一
只可惜最近又變冷了,雖然有陽光,卻是騙人的
這邊放上舊圖一張(是捲貓Flickr上最多人看的一張照片–>喔耶謝謝你耶穌~)
祝大家有個生產力旺盛的春天!嘿嘿
