Singapore-based illustrator Rachta Lin had what anyone would consider a successful career. She was an art director with a multinational company, having worked with high-profile clients such as UOB, Airasia, and Toyota. But since she was young, there was only one thing she really, really wanted to do — become a manga artist. A huge fan of anime and manga, Rachta has always enjoyed sketching and drawing her favorite characters. But the need to be practical meant she was working a corporate job. Finally, in 2015, Rachta took the leap and quit her job to become a full-time illustrator. Her art has gained her a legion of followers and commissions from various companies, including DC Comics and Magic the Gathering. Seven years later, after honing her abilities with a renowned Japanese manga publisher and submitting her work to various contests, Rachta is finally living her dream of publishing her very own manga series.
