A Saturday of comics and art as I hit up GnB’s<\/strong><\/a> for Halloween Free Comics and Illustration Arts Fest<\/strong><\/a> at La Salle.<\/p>\n

A first for both of them!<\/p>\n

\"GnB<\/a><\/p>\n

It was the first Halloween at GnB’s<\/strong><\/a> new location at Kitchener Complex\u00c2\u00a0ever since they had to move due to Rochor Centre getting demolished.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Time<\/a><\/p>\n

This is halloween, halloweeeeeen!<\/p>\n

\"Free<\/a><\/p>\n

Yay!<\/p>\n

\"10<\/a><\/p>\n

10 free comics, choose the available titles there. Of course besides the free comics there was a sale of 1USD to 1SGD for comics.<\/p>\n

\"Artists!\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Pipin Tobing and Noval Hernawan was there too for illustrations and were selling their prints.<\/p>\n

\"Tatami<\/a><\/p>\n

There’s also a tatami room in GnB?! I hope it’s there semi-permanently? Hahaahh can we have random photoshoots in it? Anyway, cosplayers and Halloween costumers could enter their contest and win some loot for dressing up!<\/p>\n

I didn’t since I was running around that day but ahhh, it looked so cool.<\/p>\n

\"So<\/a><\/p>\n

The shop felt bigger and the layout’s easy to walk too. Anyway, so festive!<\/p>\n

I’ll be visiting again during my regular pickup of comics.<\/p>\n

It’s second floor at Kitchener Complex, really a walk out of the Lavender MRT station.<\/p>\n

\"Illustration<\/a><\/p>\n

Off to Illustration Arts Fest 2016<\/strong><\/a>! It’s the first time happening too and for a premiering event, it seemed rather popular.<\/p>\n

\"Global<\/a><\/p>\n

I was there to visit my friends and look see stuff.<\/p>\n

\"Milo!\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I got a Milo Dinosaur postcard. The picture can’t capture the actual texture of the paper because WOAHHHH it is really nice.<\/p>\n

Also that Merely Ice Cream is Milo fudge cake.<\/p>\n

I couldn’t find a Milo dinosaur there to take a pic with this but they did have an ice cream booth at the fest instead.<\/p>\n

\"Drawing!\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Live drawing and there were panel workshops happening in La Salle too.<\/p>\n

\"Nobrow\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I bought a pin from a local designer and some other things but oh!! I purchased a comic called Mean Girls Club from the\u00c2\u00a0Nobrow<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong>booth, they came all the way from London and I’m like ahhh at the quality of their books.<\/p>\n

The paper, the colours and everything was different!<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s pretty fun seeing the different styles of prints, lithographs, letterpress and paintings of the various artists and designers at the fest.<\/p>\n

Plus it felt organized<\/em> for a first time event, I’m quite impressed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
