OtakuFest 2009

Sun Apr 26, 2009, 1:56 PM
Thanks for everyone who stopped by my table, and bought my stuff :D I am very grateful <3<3. It was great meeting everyone, and sorry the size of my business cards got messed up, I promise they'll line up next time hahahah.

Hopefully you guys had lots of fun too~~

EDIT: (Now that I have time to go into a little more detail ahhahaah)

I had an artist table next to the DC Anime Club, and :iconlosertastic124: who was so nice and super cute in her Shion cos (and had the most beautiful wig~~~~). (I feel really bad since she was nice enough to buy a print and phone charm too :( even though they are super expensive sorry!!!) It was my first time doing artist alley for real though! hahahah I spent all of the prior week up until 2:30 working on artwork, and had to bumrush the Kinko's at Friday night and Saturday morning, and thus ended up an hour late to the event.

I did a lot of free sketches for people on some scrap paper, and some people were actually grateful and/or gave me some tip as well. (There were a few people who were very self-entitled and acted like I should be happy that they were asking me to draw for them! No way! I have better things to do than deal with your attitude! If you want a sketch, you have to ask me, not expect it!) But thanks again to all the people who WERE nice, and didn't complain.

There were plenty of really neat people in the artist alley! (Including someone who had done a picture of X from Nougami Neuro! <3) There was :iconxwingx: who was wearing a Lillith cos, so I had to introduce her to Animamundi hahahaha, as well as :iconfeyuca: who is amazingly talented~~~

In the end, I only sold a couple prints, and mostly ended up with tip from sketches. I got more money than expected, but sold less prints. Oh well, that's how things go. I'll be kind of doing Artist Alley at Otakon. More information later I guess hahahah :)

Hey, long time no talk. xD

Just wanted you to know that I ended up watching Air Gear because of your cosplay. It's such an awesome anime~ Akito/Agito~~ Haha.
Haven't gotten around to playing Animamundi yet, sorry. ;-;

hahaha sorry for the disappearance. Right after the CHS event, I had a stream of final projects, exams and graduation that had to be done hahaha.

I'm glad you enjoyed Air Gear though -- manga version is even cooler ahhaa.
Hopefully your summer is going well though!

Will you be at Otakon in July??

Sunday: ???
Aw, it's alright. (: Haha, so glad school is over withhhh.

I've only just started reading the manga. But from what I've heard, they portrayed Akito cuter in the anime. >3 I'm thinking about drawing fan art, do you think there are enough Air Gear fans out there still that the picture will sell? o-o;;

My summer is pretty awesome so far, I've been rushing art everyday because yes, I will be at Otakon in July. Mostly in the artist alley, though, 'cause me, =PallorSomnium and ~EvilLizard got some table space. How about you?

I think the character development of Aki/Agi is more in depth and more realistic in my opinion. That's how I ended up liking them in the first place hahah. I think Agito is far more interesting in the manga, hahaha I shouldn't say much more I guess.

I think there are quite a few Air Gear fans, but it depends on who is in the picture. I think the most popular characters would probably be Aki/Agi, Simca at the very least.

Since I am on vacation in California, I figured I didn't have much time to do any quality artwork. My friends will have a table, and I'll probably leave my portfolio of artwork with them to sell, but I'm probably just going to be hanging out. (Oh, and doing a panel on BL Games if you are interested hahahah)

I hope to see you there though! I will definitely look you up in the artist alley at least >3

Looks like I'll have to check out the manga soon! (It's kind of weird, my friend told me that she stopped reading when Akito/Agito appeared in the manga. D: )

Yep, I have like a picture of Akito and one of Agito that I need to CG. Hopefully I'll make it in time. I'm kind of confused about the Air Gear fanbase at the moment, there are a lot of guy fans, but there are these moments in the anime/manga that are totally directed towards fangirls.

That's so awesome! Are you going to AX? And I will totally swing by your friends' table. (x Tell me their location so I actually know it's them. xD Do you know which day and when you're doing the panel? I will definitely try to attend. >3
