We will be at AnimeExpo 2014 Table I15-16
So this is what it has all come down to. Life has dragged me away kicking and screaming into the depths of its oblivion leaving me completely at a loss for what is up and what is down. Last couple of months have been an on and off relationship with the notion of having to move out to a new apartment, getting sick, travelling, and generally never being on top of anything.
I need a new way of scheduling- or I just need to move. I need some physical manner of change to put everything in order because as things are now it's growing increasingly more impossible to figure out what I need to do and what I CAN do.
Anyway this is the rare number of things that managed to reach completion- though it was basically a work in progress since the winter season and has debuted once in its less complete form back in Fanime.
We'll be away for AX and Winnipeg's Ai-Kon for the next 2 weeks, after which we'll be packing for a move and settling over in August. Between time I'm going to have to reorganize every worklist I own in hopes of getting somewhere with everything because this is...even for me sort of ridiculous.

Also no, I won't be uploading higher resolution/non-watermarked versions of my print images anymore. Originally I admit...I didn't care too much as I understood that everyone likes using things for wallpapers and such. I don't mind that.
Hell, you'd be surprised how little I care about people tracing/ripping my work (so long as they're not just uploading it up in its raw form and claiming ownership that is) but recently my Arcade Sona's been tossed around like a cheap whore by some wholesaler and it's popping up in all sorts of strange places.
I don't see much chance in getting rid of them, but at least I can make sure their prints are ugly as hell when they try :/

Sorta sucks cause this work would be great like on a playmat and junk, but it's on you to provide the logistics around making that happen, and that's just not your wheelhouse.

Problem with printing for actual merchandise like that, it would require printing in bulk- to which I'll be stuck with thousands of merchandise I'll need to push.
I don't honestly feel strongly about doing such things on my own- especially when there's no guarantee things will sell.

Pretty much. The folks who do this kind of ripping are in charge of their own manufacturing, they just lack the logistics to deal with artists. And without a real incentive to do so, they just print whatever. I feel like dA was kinda trying this with their shop, but legitimacy costs a bunch. And people want better cuts, which drives up prices and off customers. But Mr. Shady only has to deal with the alleyway sellers on good margins because fuck all. And kids buy it because that's what they want to see.

I have friends who play both LOL and DOTA, and as a result I have learned to love and play both of them. Although that still hasn't stopped certain friends from fighting over me tho... :/ Anyways, I love the contrast going on between the aqua and the red. So is Thresh trying to steal Ahri's soul or is he a support?

I've tried dota2 but i suppose I find LoL more vibrant and fun. i also don't like how dota players like to be super elitist about the amount of skill they require for their game while dismissing others for playing LoL :/ in the end its a different game.
Otherwise i have no issues with it. I just don't feel enough for it to play/draw fanarts of it.
As for the soul thing, pretty sure they can share huehehue

I suppose your right. Mechanics wise DOTA is harder and the color scheme has more gray tones, where LOL has more vibrant and saturated stuff. But also you have to take into account that most people who do play DOTA haven't necessarily taken an extended time to get learn the nature of LOL and vice versa. But you are right, colors aside DOTA is a different animal. Be it in the way that one is punished for making poor choices, music, or color scheme... DOTA has this tribal/primitive feel that just kind of touches someone at their core and inspires them to unleash their inner warrior (I could be wrong, but that's how it is for me and my friends at least). Taking those things into consideration, it's easy to see why people will have elitist views about one game over another. People just naturally behave like that because of their emotional connection to a game and whether that makes them feel powerful or weak. I guess in a sense mobas (or games in general) are kinda like coffee. Some like it black, some like a latte, others like frapes and the list goes on and on.
As for the souls... I think Ahri will be happy as long as Thresh gives her 9 of them O.<
