Spread the Cosfest Love

Yes, we really do

Unlike last year, we have confirmation for our booth at Cosfest 09. So fear not, TheSpammer, for we will be there to spread our works and our love for Cosfest. It has been a long hectic build up to this event with urgent sms, confirmations unconfirmed and plenty of rumbling between booth owners. As the date approaches, just about one week towards the event, people start to ask, “What happened to my booth?” Tempers were flaring, trumpets were blaring, eyes were glaring! With so much love around, it was truely a very happy event indeed.

Then came the ultimatum. Years from now, people might call it the equivalent of “Shut up and sit down!” for the local art community. Even more love was expressed. More love was returned with each love expressed. Love was absolutely in the air. It was almost a pity that all the love must be ended to prevent an over-explosion of love.

It was also now that us over at CDS managed to confirm our booth locations. We will be at booth number 14 wherever that is since no map have been released yet. But we will be there to showcase our products such as World Shuffle! and to promote something very special. Be sure to look out for it! For those who had pre-ordered our World Shuffle!, you can collect it at our booth on either days of the event.

In addition, in an effort to promote our genuine love for Cosfest, we will be giving out free “P.S. I <3 Cosfest” stickers to anyone who purchase our products. Only limited quantities available, so be sure to get them fast! Then wear them loud and wear them proud to declare your love ironically for this wonderful, very happy event!

Here comes a new challenger(s)!

CDS proudly welcomes the addition of several reknowned artists into our ranks!

First up we have the twin BL artists, Setsuri and Semi Shigure, two art students from NTU who are into pretty boys and manly men. Their works can be seen in the upcoming fanarts World shuffle! book.

Next, Flying dagger, otherwise known as the author of MDA and Chuang Yi’s sponsored Bard’s Tale, brings his intimate knowledge of comic work and experience into the fray.

All three new additions can be found in our newly updated gallery. just scroll down. Like, all the way down.

On a side note, WE LOVE COSFEST =3
