Long time no see, everybody. Here's the latest breaking news.
I'm now the proud owner of a free copy of Comic Studio EX 4.0, apparently through courtesy of the developers (Celsys) themselves.
(On a side note, the overseas version of this program's called Manga Studio EX 4.0.)
How did I come about this?
Well, first and foremost, my spring 2010 manga assignment was one of the six works chosen to be published in the school's Best-Of student manga anthology for my class. So whoohoo, I've made it onto the Best-of list for my class twice, now.
Fast forward to November. Celsys apparently called the faculty offices of my school's Manga and Animation department, hoping they could score some student works to post on their website. My teacher sent them the Best-Of data... and of the six works inside, four were selected to be posted. Mine being one of them. :D So for a congratulatory prize, my teacher wrangled the developers into giving us free copies of Comic Studio.
So now I own the Japanese version of a program I already own, and it's heavy enough to split a skull open. I'm gonna take it back to the States this X-Mas, probably to install into my desktop - I just hope it doesn't push my luggage weight over the free limit.
* * * * * * * * * *
Aside from that... I've been spacing out a lot lately, far more than usual. I blame it entirely on my schoolwork, personally, because the only thing on my mind is getting my manga assignment done before the due date. I can't even muster up the brainpower to draw anything else at the moment...
