It's still a nice age. 18 and 19 is a confusing place between teenager and adult. You're one, but you're also the other. But now you can be sure : )

Actually, I don't know if it was even that important...

When you get a table in the Artist Alley at Anime Iowa, do you buy a full table or a half?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Zodiac-Salad In reply to StrawberrySquidd [2011-02-14 00:51:10 +0000 UTC]

I believe you buy a full table. But you have the option of sharing it with someone, which cuts it down to half for each of you. ^^

Are you going to get one this year? 8D

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

StrawberrySquidd In reply to Zodiac-Salad [2011-02-14 01:13:45 +0000 UTC]

Well, I meant, what do YOU in particular usually get?

I think it's a very high possibility 8 D My mom suggested it a little earlier today. She said it would be a good chance to maybe get some commissions and meet new people ^^ Plus, it'd be a way to pay off some of the convention fees ( Registration, hotel room, even a little money for the dealer's room, maybe ) : D

And since I'm still new to the whole con scene in general... I thought maybe... would you wanna look at sharing? ^^ I'd have absolutely no problem if you didn't, though. In fact, I think it'd be pretty good for you if you had your own table-- you have so many cute charms you wanted to sell, you'd want a big wide space to show them off to everybody <333

Zodiac-Salad In reply to StrawberrySquidd [2011-02-14 02:38:08 +0000 UTC]

This is actually the first convention that I'm looking at getting a booth in. XD So there really is no "usually" for me as of yet, but this time around I was thinking of splitting a booth with my boyfriend (he has chainmail jewelry). :3

I think joining up with you would be fun! 8D I doubt that the jewelry and charms that my boyfriend and I have will take up a whole lot of the table (I think the tables there are 6 ft), so there should be plenty of room for us if you're not opposed to a 3-way split. :3

Oh?? Well then, I suppose we'd all be learning a bit more this year! Chainmail jewlery? That sounds... interesting XDD

Oh, I would have absolutely no problem with that! That is, as long as it's okay with him ^^ Keh, A little kid with ( oddly themed, at that ) ametuer art, I don't suppose he'd be thrilled, would he? | D

XD I've already told him and showed him your work, and he's excited to have you! And so am I. :3 Your stuff is great! Are you going to be selling prints as well as commissions? And will you have any of the "New Wish" stories? :bombards with questions:

StrawberrySquidd In reply to Zodiac-Salad [2011-02-14 13:57:45 +0000 UTC]

Aaaaw <333 I thank both of you
Yup, I'm going to go through and sell prints by shows ( In folders, shows like Naruto, Soul Eater, Fruits Basket, ect ) I think I might have some New Wish. I've started with it, but still trying to get the story to work just right...

Happy Valentines Day! : 3

Zodiac-Salad In reply to StrawberrySquidd [2011-02-15 05:11:37 +0000 UTC]

Happy Valentines Day to you, too! ^^

Yay, I can't wait to see your stuff! <3 Good luck getting the story put together for New Wish. :3 I'm rooting for you! If you need anyone to read over it or anything, I'm right here. ;D

I'm not sure if Anime Iowa will be allowing fan art (or anything copyrighted) to be sold this year. I know there was information for last year's convention that said it wasn't allowed, but I haven't heard anything since then: [link] <- That link says a little bit about it. But you might want to check with someone in charge beforehand, just in case. :3

StrawberrySquidd In reply to Zodiac-Salad [2011-02-15 22:21:32 +0000 UTC]

Kiki, thank you <333 I think I've pretty much got the story together, I'm just trying to work out the little details, like which antagonists would be best to appear first, when should the challenge really start to set in...

Hmmm, that would be a little inconveinient, since I draw mostly fanart, but I think I'd manage with just original work ^^ It's just, you know... people may not be as attracted if there's not anything they're very familiar with -3-

Zodiac-Salad In reply to StrawberrySquidd [2011-02-16 18:13:03 +0000 UTC]

Ohh, I see. :3 I'm sure you'll get it worked out! 8D

Yeah, I know what you mean. D8 People are automatically drawn to what they're already a fan of. But I do think that artists are allowed to use fanart for display purposes. So you can lure 'em in with their favorite series and then get hit them with the awesome originals. :3

StrawberrySquidd In reply to Zodiac-Salad [2011-02-16 22:09:01 +0000 UTC]

Wheew, some fanart even just being displayed would make a HUGE difference. Although, they would wonder what's up with the style I use... XD

Are you gonna sell any prints? : 3

Zodiac-Salad In reply to StrawberrySquidd [2011-02-17 05:32:35 +0000 UTC]

XD Your style is great! <3 Plus, I know I always like seeing fanart in different styles than the original.

Eh, I wouldn't know what to sell for prints. @_@ I don't think that any of my stuff right now is any good. Should I? I mean, I would have no idea what to draw for them. XP

FFFFF, you're a lot better than me, at LEAST in the colouring respect : D I think people would be glad to buy art from you : )

Zodiac-Salad In reply to StrawberrySquidd [2011-02-19 07:48:53 +0000 UTC]

XP I refuse to agree that I'm better. I'm in love with your drawing skills. My anatomy sucks so bad. D8

But... Maybe if I can conjure up some good pictures... there will be a possibility of prints? XP

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

StrawberrySquidd In reply to Zodiac-Salad [2011-02-19 20:16:17 +0000 UTC]

I don't really know any "better" or "worse"-- everybody has just as much potential as they truly believe, and everybody is better than everyone else at something in some respect~

If you really want to, we can come to an agreement, for now, I DRAW better ( Or the human anatomy, at least-- I screw up so bad with animals and creatures ), but YOU'RE the better colourer : ) Your mediums are always solid and absolute, and your shading is great. I need some definite work on all of that X P

That's a good way of looking at it! :3

XD If we both have areas that we'd like to improve, maybe we can bring some drawing materials to AI and kind of build off of each other! Share some tips and whatnot. ^^

FFFF, another great idea | D
I don't really use many "materials", just regular old pen/paper/pencil, but if you're having trouble with anatomy I was taught some pretty good techniques. They really helped me out a lot : )
