Curvy!

So after a long battle with the post office, i finally got my package. remember that submission i did for that aussie magazine? yes it has flown several seas (or air borders) to get to me, and although it has reached my hands in a slightly tattered state (the package was already ripped open, prolly searching for the oh-so-outdated anthrax), the book looks a lot better than i expected.






i'm on page 123. i like the number yes i do.


got no idea where it's distributed since honestly dont think ive seen any previous editions of curvy around before.
then again i doubt romania gets many artbooks, so. meh.

i'm still sad that i didn't get to go to the gallery opening and launch though. the pictures they had on the YEN site look like they had a blast. ;_;

uh. oh and in the list there's another malaysian other than me! awesome =D
