My Work on Trese

Being with FlipGeeks have given me a lot of awesome opportunities in working with great people in the local pop culture scene. Relating to the current landscape - the release of Netflix’s animated adaptation trailer video of Budjette Tan’s & Kajo Baldisimo’s TRESE…

I’d like to share some stuff that I’ve done with them:

1. LAST SEEN AFTER MIDNIGHT Interview with Budjette Tan & Kajo Baldisimo (Oct. 3, 2011, FlipGeeks)

2. LET'S TALK KOMIKS: Budjette Tan & Kajo Baldisimo swim to HIGH TIDE AT MIDNIGHT - Trese Book 6 | FlipGeeks (Dec. 11, 2014, FlipGeeks)

Art wise, I’m a fan of Budjette’s and Kajo’s work. Here are mt TRESE-related work:

Trese Fan Art

Around this time, I didn’t know how to draw women and their hair. But I was learning how to.

Trese Halloween

This is an entry for their contest in the past. Its a comic book sequence. Apperently many misinterpreted it by just basing it on the first panel.

TRESE

I was getting better in drawing women.

TRESE 2021

Here I am now.

When I first heard of the Netflix-Trese deal, I was pretty happy for them and pretty happy on how they will move and inspire the current and future komiks landscape. TRESE will premiere on June 11 (USA) and June 12 (Philippines) in Netflix.
