Update:

my doodle of THOR GOD OF THUNDA!

just got some ideas for new designs..and along with that.. been boarding out a book i am in development on.. and on top of that.. just got my flash programming book(alot of ands hahaha).. so am going to start making flash games .. hopefully i can convert them to apps.. or at least pay someone too ahahhaha... we shall see...

hope i can get the cover done tonight.. for the book..

Thought of the day:

My nephew/godson special power is his smile.. he threw up on me, pooped all over and pee'd on me.. yet with that smile he just melts my heart.. i love my godson Noah ahhahaha

thinking

thinking about shutting the store down.. just looked at other sites and disheartened me.. or maybe its just the weather... ah we'll see...

Update: New App in the Android market

(new app in the android market, need to get a mac to get it into the iphone so that would be later unless someone)

Update: so i've been trying to figure out how to develop more marketing for my store...you know Facebook is a good source of marketing yet i know people prolly ignore most of my posts since i do play a lot of games and they do get bogged down with my game posts which i try to limit nowadays anyway.. so i thought what do most people have nowadays.. smartphones? and what do they have on their smartphones? apps... so i decided to create an app for my company and you can actually shop online if you decide too.. :D

So presenting the new app.. check it out in the android market Pillowbrand ... it's simple but also my first app.. .. have an idea for a new app but that will take more programming and designing :D...thank you to those that like it and download.. thank you for the support and the future support :D...

eventually i will move the store out of cafepress and i can offer more distinct designs until then i thank you guys again for the support :D

thought of the day: i think i made the wrong choice..back then.. but i do believe everything will work out :D.. here's to a positive future.. :D

Update:

showing his roaring prowess or yawning either or he's my little godson Noah

Update: haven't designed as of late since i've been busy working on getting an android app to work and also started my nanny duties with my little nephew/godson.. just to help my older brother out a bit..and i love my godson Noah hehe

but do have an idea for a design soon .. trying to do a crest for both sides of my family...so a kalabaw and the philippine eagle might come into play again.. but trying to decide whether to make them two separate or all incorporated into one crest.. we shall see..

as for the thought of the day.. i may be getting old because i feel like there are a lot more douchebags out there on the road.. or there could be just a lot more douchebags :D.. ah well..

New Design

Do not yield to conformity, embrace your uniqueness

About 2 days ago.. after finishing the "Ramen shirt".. i was stumped for my next concept.. i was about to start on my book that I have been wanting to draw for a while when my nephew said "hey tito(uncle in tagalog) why don't u draw something for "defiance" or "against the norm"?". So i told him "against the norm" i have something for which is my "Stop being Sheep" shirt..but the word defiance spoke to me..

Now I have always been thought weird since my social skills aren't on par with my siblings but I have always tried not to conform to what everyone else is doing. I say tried since am not going to lie but i did follow trends back when i was younger but around high school i started to learn that i don't really care of what people think of how i look, how i dress as long as am comfortable, i didn't care.. ehehehehe so i guess i started defying the so called trends.(But not in technology since i love technology and i always want the new things ahahhaha)

Took a class in College on Popular culture and my professor told me that I was a closet revolutionary. Which i found funny, hilarious but somehow true. I don't say much when it comes to most things since i respect people's opinions since i want the same respect when i tell them my opinion. But there are things that i say things out loud which doesn't make me popular in some groups. And that's what this shirt is all about i think.

Defiance against the so called norm. I don't need anybody telling me how to worship someone, how to live my life. Defy what people follow and make your own path. People will always hate what they don't understand but as long as you are happy with what or who you are then their opinions and their beliefs shouldn't bring you down.

like I've always said... just be you..

Design aNew

(the King of the Noodles hehehe)

Update: New design again. Just added under the "Food" section in the store. the Pillowbrand Ramen, Yum Noodles, the King Ramen.

Cheap and done in 3 minutes what better way to satisfy your appetite? heehehe actually there are better ways but that's for another blog.

Now what's next on the Menu?

Thought of the day: Who was the man/woman or group of people that said.. this word.. will mean this? and what was their process of deciding that word will mean this or describe this? things i ponder when i get up in the morning..

New Design

check them out in the store when you have time... and thanks for the continued support...

New Design

Update: On sunday.. i was cleaning out my golf clubs when my dad asked me to see if i can throw anything out that was in storage in our garage since the township is picking up unusual objects tomorrow without charging.. so my dad is all gung ho about cleaning the garage...

i had 5 boxes to go thru..and two of the boxes were filled with my old sketchbooks and drawings...it was kind of nostalgic as i reminisce on the old ideas i had..

so i started getting back ideas.. i use to draw a lot of human characters but lately not really.. so i ventured and i came up with the bombin' mural.. takes me back to my roots of just doing street stuff.. hehehe.. haven't done it a long time...

so it was a blessing i guess for me to look into those boxes.. cuz now am going back and just applying what i can do now to those drawings i did before..

made me realize ... back then i didn't care what i drew.. just as long as it made me smile.. i lost it and maybe that's why i gave up on drawing for 8 years..just tired of making people happy and putting aside what i wanted.. but now.. thinking of my store and what i want in it and not listening(not really not listening just not paying attention to it hahaha i always listen..but i just don't follow all the time ahhaha) to those who want to put their input into my business..am getting creative again.. :D

i'm still my biggest critic.. but am letting it go and not being so harsh on myself nowadays...

Long time

(my invitation i designed for our wedding)

Long time away.. been busy ehehehe.. got married and now just trying to figure out how to support my family ehehehe..and also petition my wife here so we can start our life together....that's why i'm coming up with ideas for the store..

the website pillowbrand needs a big revamp.. but i'm waiting until i get some money to open up the store.. and not rely on cafepress.. i love cafepress because it brought out my stuff into the interweb but am not making as much money.. but it does not give me the extra stress of getting a press(for the transfers), a new printer(since mine doesn't print out 11x17 hehe), the heat transfer paper(lotsa moolah), ink for the printer, and the supply of shirts to put the designs on too.

Sometimes i get creative blocks but as of late.. been designing like crazy.. am afraid to stop sometimes because i feel like i'll run out of ideas.. but sometimes it's good to just stop for a bit.. and just get some fresh air.. ehehehehehe

so i do apologize for keeping this page unattended... no worries i'll try everyday to update this page.. :D

pillowbrand is a goal i have been striving for since high school.. one of my dreams(the other to become an animator which has been done too.. next is SUCCESS haha).. so i thank you for the support, the continued support and the future support.. without you all .. this dream wouldn't come true.. so i thank you...

Pillowbrand thanks you
