About Me

WOW, alot has changed since I created this MySpace page. Still a British Born Chinese (BBC) who has know hopefully found his place in the world.
Currently working as a Trainee Independant Mortgage Broker, working under my father as I get trained up to experience the real world of finance
Changed from computer to financial g33k, but still an anime/manga g33k at heart, will never change, hahahaha.
You will catch me more often on Facebook and if you have the Grafitti function on and are good to me, expect a nice drawing
(unless you're Emily the Marketing Director of Orbital where you're drawings are protection money for your beats!!)
Job Status
Positive Mortgages - Trainee Independent Mortgage Broker - July 2007 - Present
Currently working for my father, dealing with a wide range of submitted cases, chase ups, application entry
and gaining important on-hands experience to make it in the finanical industry.
Orbital Manga / Comics - Sales Assistant/Dragonball Z Expert/Computer lackey - February 2007 - July 2007
One of the greatest jobs in the world working with the nicest people in the retail industry (Hannah senpai, Don-brella, Boss-man, Geki-Redo-Niall and finally Ryuzaki as well as all the OC staff members).
Selling manga, opening up trading figures,carrying comics from OC to OM on a Wednesday,
getting venti ice mochas-more milk-less ice for boss-man. Loved every minute of it.
Also enjoyed starting up the Orbital Manga myspace page . Really cool seeing how manya customers would add us as their friend, hahaha.
Little does people know but I'm a bit of a perfectionist (some might say a bit..."anal"). Being a former computer g33k, I used years of experimentation with Paint Shop Pro to put a bit of creativity into my *ahem" back-up discs and DVDs. Below you'll find most of the design works that I've done, mainly designing layouts cutting out and manipulating images and making it look like a retail item etc etc. However, all for entertainment purposes (yeah, what I do when I'm bored...) and not for sale. Enjoy!!
T-shirt Design
BLEACH "Kurosaki Ichigo: Shingami Vs Arrancar"
With Paint Shop Pro experimentation, I was always frustrated how I could never find the anime t-shirt that I wanted and could never find t-shirts that fit. With a Bleach design in my mind, I had then search for the right images and then manipulate them in a way that would look right.
The main Bankai Ichigo image is from a piece of artwork that Kubo Tite did based on the movie, "Memories of Nobody". The manga images are from various chapters and scanlations I had to scour through to find decent face images and spreads.
Once the high res image was complete, next was the printing. A big thanks to Tasha and Stephen for helping me print the image via transfer and ironing it on, much appreciated. Enjoy the process!
Image manipulation - character cutting, shaping, resizing
T-shirt Mock-up - using T-Shirt Studio

I'd like to meet:

Kiefer Sutherland - Just because if you don't watch 24, you don't know Jack!
He seems like a nice, humble guy, really well spoken.
Watch the interview with Jonathan Ross and you'll see..

Erica Durance - Love her style of Lois Lane in Smallville, it's the way it should have been in "Superman Returns".
Plus last season, the writer's really were finding excuses just to get her to wear less clothes, hahaha.

Amy Acker - Fred was one of those characters in Angel that took a while to shine but finally did.
Great actress as shy Winifred then did an excellent turnaround as the ever-powerful God-like Illyria.

Elisha Cuthbert - People seem to hate Kim Bauer but I think Elisha plays her well.
Nice to see her in Season 5.

Jill Wagner - Mercury Girl, many disguises of Punk'd and now Krista Starr, the reputation of this classy lady is definately gonna increase.
Better meet her soon before she becomes household-name famous!

Maggie Grace - Upset when the producers killed off Shannon. Then missed her at London Film and Comic Con.
I just can't catch a break. Need to watch "The Fog" so everyone remind me.

Ray Park - Seems to go around conventions, giving people lightsaber lessons.
Damn straight I wanna duel with Darth Maul!


Matt Damon - Great, great actor in the Bourne movies.
Saw his "Will & Grace" episode recently, good stuff.
