TKG Manga Drawing Foundation Course
Welcome to the TKG Manga Drawing Foundation Course!
This is for young to not-so-young aspiring artists across a number of ages who wants to try manga drawing in a structured and guided face to face environment.
We have 4 categories:
A.9-11 years. They say the best manga talents start doodling at 4-7 years. This is the next best thing. Art in school is boring. You want to be better than your art teacher. This is it.
B. 12-18 years. Some of the best years for learning manga drawing early. Be mindful that this is not your usual school CCA. It is lit.
C. 19-28 years. You have decided to learn drawing at a more serious level. You like manga. You want to meet people of similar interest and who are equally serious about it. This is gonna be awesome.
D. 29-45 years. You have sort of put this off for some time and you decided that this is time to revisit this hobby again for whatever reason. You want to be professional while you still can because some damn 9 year old is starting on the dream you want and you are just salty. It could also be the last opportunity you can live your mangaka dream and you want to take the plunge. YOLO.
Classes are usually conducted on Saturdays or Sundays in 2 hours blocks from 2 pm onwards. Do let us know your schedule and we see if it works out. Go ahead and meet us for a chat. There are no obligations.
The starting cost is $280 per month for an equivalent of 8 hours or 4 sessions. We know it is not cheap. It should not be. Welcome to Singapore.
You can check out what we do at www.tkgcc.com. We are also involved in tabletop games and a variety of pop culture related muses. We are a living example of what manga drawing can lead to.
As a general overview, the TKG Comic Circle uses 3 tiers of advancement at the Bronze, Silver and Gold levels.

Feel free to write us an email at admin@tkgcc.com but nothing beats meeting us in person for a chat over a lazy 2- 6 pm-ish afternoon tea session.

Meet: Bishan MRT \(NS17 \|\| CC15\) Exit A
When: Sunday 5th Apr 5 pm\*\*
\*\*This is a Rain or Shine event. Please take a good lunch or bring along some snacks if you feel hungry along the way. Our walks are usually between 8 - 12 km long. Just so you know, the weather may be hot but as the sun sets, the weather should be cooler.
Please be punctual. You are encouraged to be slightly early to avoid disappointments. There will be 5 minutes grace for attendance taking. Please remember that we cannot wait because this would be unfair to those already present.
Explore the newly opened Bidadari Park together! We will start our journey from Bishan and head towards Potong Pasir.
Situated at a focal point amidst four districts in the Bidadari estate — Woodleigh, Alkaff, Park Edge and Bartley Heights— the 13-hectare park occupies more than 10 per cent of the Bidadari estate’s land area.
The park's design drew inspiration from the Hundred Acre Wood inhabited by the characters from children's story "Winnie-the-Pooh", and encompasses a myriad of habitats from woodlands, grasslands to marshes.\*
\*Source: https://mothership.sg/2024/09/bidadari-park-open/
We will end at the newly opened Woodleigh Village Hawker Centre (https://www.woodleighhawker.com.sg/). There are many choices and good food to sample for every tastebud :-)
See you there! :-)
What to bring:
\- Shades
\- umbrellas
\- Water
\- Good walking shoes
\- Long pants preferred
\- Mosquito Repellent
This is a Rain or Shine event. Where there are thunderstorms, we will adjourn for coffee or early dinner. We will resume the walk once the rain subsides.
Event communication will be through the event chat. Please check the event chat on the day of the event so that you will be updated on any changes.
Please keep in mind that I may not respond to messages sent after the walk starts because I will be busy helping the attendees and leading the walk.
Please be sure to RSVP responsibly to help those who are on the waitlist get the chance to come for the walks.
Thank you for your kind understanding.

CBusData: The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again.
We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all.
Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.
