Last day of January and tomorrow it is February... DUH?!?
Anyway, just when I thought I was out of Chinese New Year design ideas I just came up with 2 new ones today. So I made 2 new designs and 2 merged designs so I published 4 new designs on my TeePublic merch store. Before we get into those, lets talk merch store performance. So I got 1 sale, so I guess that re-invigorated my enthusiasm with the merch store. My first sale, I know it is not a lot but it is a validation, a confirmation and most importantly a commission... LOL. I am happy about it that at least something happened. Anyway back to new designs, let's start with the simple one which was a CNY lucky coins sort of repetitive design. It is the same outline design that I do once in awhile for a few designs. The second was like a stone of an idea that hit me suddenly. So I made a Guan Yu design and I was Googling him the other day and voila! From statues search showed him with another deity called Wei Tou which I don't even know why I didn't think about it in the first place. Granted Guan Yu is more popular and is in every single altar at restaurants in Hong Kong but Wei Tou is always next to him at Temples. So I made a Wei Tou design as well. I am pretty pleased with how it turned out and I hope people would like it.
So... I finally got a new tablet... it is not really the tablet that I think I can use for creative work but it sure should be able to handle my regular job requirements. So I finally got the Chuwi Surbook. It is the cheaper alternative to a Surface Tablet. So far I have been using for a couple of days and it is good enough. I was originally gonna go for the Hi10 Air but looking at the specifications, I finally decided to get the Surbook instead. Now, how I did I came up to buying the Surbook? You may ask. Well I was with my brother to Shamshuipo because he needed to get a new laptop. So he got his laptop and I was planning to look at tablets and ended up buying the tablet at the store where my brother got his laptop. So I got the regualr 6GB RAM/ 128GB ROM model with the keyboard, they didn't let me choose the color or maybe they only had purple/violet which I am fine because I like the color. At first I was worried I got a faulty unit because the screen keeps turning off when touched, luckily after a quick Google, people reported this as a normal thing and that the drivers are not yet installed and should be working after a restart; which luckily it did worked! Updating Windows 10 was a pisser, it took half day to complete but now that it is finished I don't have to go through it again. Internet I thought also was an issue but ended up just a bad signal from my wifi router. It didn't come with the pen so I need to order it from Taobao. I am not gonna do an unboxing video on CORRUPTED because I just simply didn't film the whole unboxing.
I guess that is it for now. Be afraid.
