Jerome Cabanatan hasn't added a story.
HiiYaa! My name is Jerome Cabanatan. I live comics and martial arts. I am SO thankful that my last campaign (For “Hii-Yaa! The Handbook” in May) was a success, and that the book will be releasing in July 2023! I launched THIS Crowdfundr campaign to sell/promote more books and take on more commissions over the summer. I will be running Taekwondo camps (where I also run a comics making session everyday) so the majority of my PERSONAL creativity goes into that and I need YOUR ideas to keep my creative battery charged. I am offering Sketch Cards of various sizes, Digital Commissions, Etch-A-Sketch Commissions (Yep, I do that too) in addition to SIGNED copies of my all-ages books:
✅HiiYaa! The Handbook
✅Tree Kids of Troop 44
✅ABCs of HiiYaa!
✅Tree vs Fox
✅Black Belter (#1-5)
✅One Stone
✅But Can You Draw it on an Etch-a-Sketch
Funds raised by this campaign goes into groceries, gas and making more comics (art supplies, banners, website etc.)! My mission is to build a greater awareness and demand for my comics and art services while spreading the joy that comics and martial arts gives me! And for that I need YOU! Gaining clients and building an audience allows me to continue to follow my passions for a living. I’m doing it already as martial arts instructor, but I’m ready to take that next step as an artist!
Thank you for taking the time to consider contributing to the
campaign, as a working artist, every bit helps and that includes
YOURS!
Deep Bows,
Jerome Cabanatan
